Investment Q&A

Q: Hello,

It seems like Wealthsimple Trade is offering some new products. 3 of which are stock lending, private credit, and a few months ago a venture fund. What are your thoughts on these offerings and could you explain how they generate a return?

Thank you.

Q: How does one determine if an alternative investment company is legit and determine the level of risk with the investment. My daughter has been looking at bequest legacy investing. They have a legacy fund that invests in commercial real estate, performing loans and energy that provides 10% cash flow and gives you your investment back after two years if you choose or you can stay invested. Are you familiar with this company?

Q: I am thinking of investing in the Westbridge Capital Partners Income Trust. Can you please provide your thoughts on this income trust.

Q: What are your thoughts on VMD recent earning. At this time would you classify it as a Buy or Wait till latter? Thanks … Cal

Q: Could you comment on this fund I cannot find any information I was told they had over 37 percent return in 2021 with no management fees
I think it is a real estate fund

Q: Looking for some insight regarding redirecting a small percentage (5% - 10%) of fixed income ETFs to an alternative credit opportunity fund and/or Mortgage Fund? Are there "better" options than YTM Capital's offerings?

Q: Hi Peter and Ryan,

It is a pleasure to see you folks on BNN, When is the next appearance ?

why don't you add `a calendar of events' on your website of when you and your team is invited to interviews on business news channels on TV or Internet. Those interviews are really informative and cover wide ranging topics and I'm sure your members would love to watch them `live'.

Thanks

Q: I follow Jason Donville and like 5iresearch recommends similar tech companies as 5i using "the rule of 40". Do you use this rule? Other than his fairly transparent newsletter, is there any way to see exactly what his holdings are in the DKAM Capital Ideas fund?

Q: Over the past few weeks I've become increasingly interested in alternative investing, particular with regard to fixed income. I meet the criteria for an accredited investor and could manage an offering memorandum, yet liquid alts look a little more interesting. Three questions: (1) Do you think there's a case to be made to redeploy 5% to 10% of the traditional 60/40 mix into alternatives? (2) Are you guys up for answering some questions about the different liquid alt strategies? (3) If not, any suggestions where a relatively savvy investor would go to get some good independent advise on how to best wade into this asset class?

Q: When a hedge fund collapses due to missmanagement, embezzlement etc is there any protection for the people who have invested their money with them?

Q: Hello 5i Team, your opinion please on Capstone Mortgage Pool Fund Class F (CVT111) and MMCAP Canadian Fund Class F (SPA263). Thank you, Happy Holidays!

Q: What are thoughts about this company...is the risk/reward favourable? Thanks

Q: Hi gang, looking into some safe alternate investment. Are this fund safe to buy in ? Any other suggestions? What are the risks?
