Investment Q&A

Q: Hi,
What are your thoughts on FB’s crypto plans?
Thanks,
Kerri

Q: Peter please: I'm looking to add fresh cash to one of three stocks in an investment account, I realize all three are outside your area of coverage but would appreciate your opinion on your preferred among Philip Morris (PM), ICICI bank (IBN), Total S. A. (TOT) or if you would avoid any of the three, such as Total. I would be adding to PM and ICICI, Total would be a new (half) position. I realize Total is an energy supermajor (energy not currently in favour and likely in a secular decline) and there would be a French withholding tax. However Total has interests in renewable energy and the chemical space in addition to oil and gas and that is somewhat appealing to me. The other two securities are appealing as a result of secure dividends (PM) and exposure to India (ICICI). I would consider each to be a very long term hold, your valued opinion please

Thanks...

Q: Further to my question on this company back in April, after their switch to a C suite company now do you see any hope for this company in terms of tailwinds or do you see this as a looser short term?

Q: I invested in Blackstone in early 2018. It's had a fairly good run up since then. At the time it seemed to have a bright future, offered a reasonable dividend, and provided diversification through their investments in private equity which I had no exposure to.
How do you feel about it now? Worth holding onto for the same reasons?
