Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hi, was wondering how one would set up a portfolio using the 5i web site.

Should a 33% be put in each portfolio or should another portion be in cash and bonds.

At the moment my portfolio is 10% cash, 10% bonds, 40% dividend payers and 40% small cap, in the summer months I usually raise some cash for the fall.

Any guidance would be greatly appreciated

Anthony

Q: You have expressed the opinion that investors are bored with GUD as the reason for its recent rather lackluster performance but it's recent dive over the last 3 trading sessions of about 10% seems more than boredom. Is there anything going on at the company with respect to their products or with their management team that could be behind the steady downward pressure on the shares?

Q: Hi Gang, I'm down around 18% on both, are brokers usually right with their outperform recommendations, saw this on my TD account this morning, also what time frame should I have before cutting them loose. I'm patient but usually after 6-12 months my patience runs thin. Thanks Anthony

Q: Not a question, just two comments:

1) Two days ago I asked a question & expressed a certain level of discomfort with the slide in KXS, to which you "poured oil on the waters". In answer to a question from another subscriber, also about KXS, you reminded us to keep a longer-term focus, be in for the long haul not the short term. Thank you!

2) BMO Capital Markets & NA have both today issued reports with "Outperform" ratings for KXS, further reminder to keep a view of the long term and not panic. I do wonder, though, at the discrepancy in these two reports' price targets -- $82 & $100 -- that's a big spread!

Thanks for helping keeping us on the investment straight-and-narrow. LM.
