Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hello

Could you comment on most recent earnings?

To me it sounds like both are managing costs and inventory well but their hands are tied due to the cyclical nature of the Agri business.

I have owned a small position in both for five years or so now.

Thank you

Q: Hello,

I am gradually adding companies to my portfolio when the funds become available. My question is, should I also be selling portions of my stocks that are doing well to fund my next purchase? Or should I only do this if one stock has taken off and created a significant overweighting? I guess what I'm trying to decide is if it is more important to quickly diversify or to let time do its thing and patiently add companies when able.

Thanks,
Al

Q: I have enjoyed quite a runup in my holding of CRH and am thinking of taking some of my profits (slightly overweight now) and adding to my position in BAD where I am slightly below my average price. Why has BAD dropped so significantly recently and would you consider this a good entry point or sit tight with CRH.

Q: Hello 5i,
I want to buy two stocks to balance my portfolio which is overweight in Consumer, Financial and Health Care. In my watch list I have the following stocks.
Materials: MX
Industrials: ECI, EIF, KWH.UN
IT: ENGH, SYZ
Telecom: T
Utilities: BEP.UN
Which two stocks (sectors) would you buy at the present time? If (when) there is a correction, which sectors are more likely be on “sale”?
Thanks!

Q: As you can see small retail investors are forced to compete in a market were self serving hedge funds are given a soap box on national tv BNN to hawk there position and fears into the small retail investor .The vast viewership of BNN are small retail investors who are influenced buy guests like last nite.
It is a very unlevel playing field.
As a senior investor it is clear to me that it time to get to hell out and the leave market to hedge fund hawkers

Q: Good Morning
Today, on BNN, an analyst indicated that he is shorting both stocks. I will appreciate your views with respect to the above noted securities. I am ahead about 40% on both stocks.
Would you recommend selling TRI and EIF
Thank you

Q: Hi All at 5i!!! I would like your advice. I would like to design a fixed , very, very (did I mention very?) conservative portfolio which will preserve my principle and earn me 4-5% income. This money will be held outside of a registered account. I own enough stocks, and do not want to add any more if I can help it. I own a good portion of the dividend aristocrats already. I understand that the taxation is not favorable outside of a registered account for fixed income and this may be a tall order considering how low interest rates are. Do you have any tools in your investment tool box to help me with this, and what would they be? Kind Regards, Tamara

Q: Hello,

I am thinking about selling my DOL position and moving into MDA. I have held DOL for a while with no traction. I feel the upside could be $5.00 per share, but the downside could be sizable with any earnings miss, etc. There appears to be better analyst price appreciation with MDA, and with the new acquisition for the imaging company it could play into US defense commencements?? Any comments on this thought process would be great. Thank you.
