Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I know these companies span the financial category and they're not comparing apples to apples exactly but I'm looking to maintain stable dividend income and long term growth. Assuming equal weight except for IGM (much higher weight), would you recommend a weight shift? An addition/subtraction of position?

Q: I would like to increase my global exposure and was looking at Cymbria, or would Edgepoint Global be a better investment? From your last answers on Cymbria, you stated it was trading at a high premium. What would be a good entry point to buy Cymbria? I notice it has come down a little bit since then. What about the management fee for these products, are they reasonable?
Thank you for all the advice I have received over the years!

Q: I have an a US "balanced" portfolio that holds V (and also BAC) , you suggested in an earlier answer to another person that for diversification, might take a position in SQ. If both V and SQ were held, what weightings would you consider giving V and SQ, and also BAC, like 5, 4, 3 or 2 %, within the Financial sector portion of the portfolio as a whole?.....thanks....Tom

Q: Invesco just announced that its assets under management grew by less than 0.1% in August vs July. That does not seem like a good omen -appears to be capital gains growth inside portfolios (~3% S&P) just outpacing withdrawals.

In your opinion, what weighting should be given to this metric in this industry vs the large dividend yield 5% and low P/E of 8?
