Q: I am doing some investing planning.
Objectives are to reduce risks and to capture more dividend income.

Part of this process entails looking for companies that are ( almost) too big to fail - recognizing that nothing is totally safe. bam.a, bro.b, bx

As a category or label would you:
1. Agree that the companies above are “ conglomerates “? ( or something else?)
2. Are they “ almost “ too big to fail?
3. Are there others I missed? .. especially something you like better?

Thanks as a for your helpfulness.

Q: Hi there, ARKK has dropped very dramatically - about 75% to 80% from all time highs. I believe the 2000 .com bust had a similar fall in terms of percentages. In your opinion, has ARKK bottomed out here? Do you think it's time to finally start buying in the $40 to $45 price range? Lastly, do you see comparisons in buying ARKK today, similar to buying oil in March 2020 after oil went negative and XEG etc collapsed? Thanks!

Q: I just sold NVDA for a tax loss but will be repurchasing it in 30 days. Would you buy a proxy for it or do you think things will remain unsettled for the next month? If you feel a proxy is prudent, what would your choice be?

Appreciate the insight.

Q: I've been following Southern copper for a while. How safe is the dividend and is the stock at fair market value? Would you consider adding to the site acronyms that are commonplace in investing jargon? Also an explanation of what each means and how they are calculated. For example price to equity or fomo. As an older investor I'd like to be able to keep up with their current terms and meanings. Thanks Steve.

Q: Hi Peter,

It looks like capitulation is nearing. There isn't anywhere to hide anymore.

Would you wait for further drops in WMT, TGT, COST, L, and PBM or is it a good time to jump in on some or all of the these names?

Can you rank the stocks in order of preference for a 3-5 year or more hold in an RRSP? Would you purchase any of the stocks for a TFSA at this time?

Thank you
Debbie and Jerry
