Investment Q&A

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

Q: Both Altria (MO) and BTI generate great cash flows, have high dividends and have had a significant share price reduction lately. How sustainable are the dividends and what’s your opinion on me taking a half position (2% of my portfolio) in each for both income and as a potential play on the cannabis sector? I have a very well diversified portfolio and very long-term philosophy. Thx.

Q: Odlum Brown has just recommended to sell CME and replace it with BLK. Seems like an odd time to sell CME as my understanding is that the recent increased volatility should be good for it, which is likely why it is actually up over the recent period!!

BLK also looks good, especially after its recent pull back.

I currently have 2% of my portfolio in CME but do not have BLK.

Would 5i support holding CME and initiating in BLK or does it seem reasonable to exit CME on its recent strength and pick up some BLK? I have 15% of my portfolio in financials at the moment.

Q: I have a question about Nvidia. Tough to see it down on an up day (Nov 21) for the nasdaq. Not that I know much about Zacks but I see they have a "strong sell" on it today (not clear to me if their opinion is new today though). Are you still strong on Nvidia or would you suggest a U.S. replacement? Thanks.

Q: Thx for the quick response. Further to my question....do Why you agree w/ whoever downgraded SQ? What was the reason for the downgrade? And are you still confident in the upside of SHOP & SQ? If so, would you be a buyer today of both SHOP & SQ.
Thank you!

Q: Looking at the US market for a 2-3 year horizon. Like TSG, SMSEY, XLK, NVDA and TEAM do you see any problem with taking full positions now and what 2-3 additions would you make and or remove.

Thank-you as always for your insight.

Q: I am holding 5% in XSP. VUN AND ZQQ ETF. I am planning to increase to 10% in each. Plus I hold FTEC and SKYY ETF 2% each. Planning to increase to 5%. DO you think there is overlap and is any ETF holding is to high. If it is too high what percentage do you think is appropriate.

Thanks for the great service

Q: Hi Team,
Just wondering if you have any thoughts on the investment quality of CWS, an ETF created by Eddy Elfenbein of Crossing Wall Street. I see it is only around $14M US in size and about two years old. It’s meant to be a mid-cap growth fund with low turnover (5 trades once per year) and has a 0.68% MER. Thank you, Michael
