Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hi. I own 2 US stocks, Pfizer and J&J. Have become overweight in J&J so will have some US funds to deploy. I am retired and am a dividend investor with minimum risk. I read with interest your answer to Keith that Verizon and Telus about the same and JPM and Royal Bank similar. You indicated best to invest in areas in the US like Industrials, Tech or large consumer stocks. Appreciate what stocks you recommend in these areas as well as your thoughts on Verizon.

Q: I hold the shares in the following companies, (ATD.B, CCL.B, CSU, L, NFI, OTEX,PEO, PHO, SHOP) but need to sell to free up some cash. NFI is the only one in the red at this point in time based on my purchase dates. Can you order them - first to sell to last to sell - for me. Thinking of future potential.
Thanks
Michele

Q: Appreciated your answer about the liberty checks. Now on to part two. Why were the liberty checks directed and sent to individuals rather that directed to the health care system and the education system in the United States? The whole thing looks like a casino to me.
Thanks,

Q: Hello team,

What is wrong with FDA wanting to review CorMedix's "full data set including secondary endpoints from the LOCK-IT-100 study to facilitate FDA's consideration of CorMedix's request to file the New Drug Application (NDA) for Neutrolin on the basis of the LOCK-IT-100 study results."

Why the 27% drop after the meeting with FDA and willingness of the company to provide the data and fully cooperate?

Hold, Sell, or Average down on CRMD?

Thanks as always.

Q: Hello 5I Team, Thanks for the great service that you provide.
I'm getting quite impatient and nervous about TSGI missing the 2019 bounce and suspect that USA potentially clamping down on gambling will remain a strong headwind for the foreseeable future. Would it be a better idea to get sell my position 4% total portfolio and re-invest in one or more of SHOP, GSY or CSU? If so, what would your order of preference be.

Thanks
