Investment Q&A

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

Q: I own the following 6 tech names (ROP is technically an industrial but fast moving into software) in my RRSP, each at about 2% weighting. I am thinking of gradually adding one or two FANG names to round this up. I am looking at MSFT and/or GOOG. If these makes a good complement, do you consider one or the other a better buy today?

Q: Hi. These companies are all from the industrial group of the S & P Dividend Aristocrats list. I'm looking to invest in one or two of them, to hold for the long term. Do any stand out to you? Any that you would avoid?

Q: Hi there,

People have made good money investing in SPAC's this year (DraftKings, Virgin Galactic, Nikola) although I'm sure have been less successful. Ackman and Pershing Square seem to be bringing PSTH forward with a structure more friendly to the retail investors. My question is whether you consider PSTH to be a worthy investment at this time or if you would wait for an announcement about who they bring public? It would seem that if you have faith in Ackman you have to get in now to capture upside. Would you buy or wait and why?

Q: Hi 5i team,
Kodak caught my eye today. It was up 250% in the pre-market. I used to own it 100 years ago. Last I remember, it was on the verge of bankruptcy as no one was buying cameras anymore with all the smartphones offering that function. Now it wins a contract from the U.S. Government to manufacture drug ingredients to help offset supply chain issues with China. I don’t plan on buying Kodak but this seems like the craziest company pivot I have seen from manufacturing cameras to drug ingredients. A sign of the times, perhaps?

Q: These stocks are somewhat different [financials and commercial services]. For a long-term investment, please advise top 2 for growth with rationale. Since all are priced for perfection, would plan to initiate positions only.

Q: I've read the Q & A's on veev and see that it's a name you like longer term. What about the short term? How do you like it at the current price given that it's experienced a nice run in the last month or so. Does it have legs to keep going higher shorter term in your view? I bought some today and it immediately dropped and of course I'm wondering whether I was the last one to join the party. I realize you don't have a crystal ball. Thank you as always.
