Q: Good afternoon 5i
A number of people have asked about the best small cap etf. You have sometimes mentioned ijt as a good one. But, lately you have been recommending ijr. In the answers 5i always mentions whether or not someone on staff holds the given stock or etf. I was curious as to wht you would say that ijr is your preferred but not own it and own ijt, though
Thanks

Q: Read the Q&As almost daily for several years now.
Senior, retired and living on government pensions.
My question is about a growth-oriented TFSA cash allocation of about 10k or less than .75% of total equity portfolio. Will not need the funds for another 34 months.
Understand you cannot indicate position size or provide personal advice.
Current TFSA holdings in order of largest %age gain to biggest losers in TFSA is: TFII, TRI, DIR.un, DSG, KXS, LMN, TOI, TVK, EQB, DOL, DOO, PMZ.un, TIXT, REAL, S, HOT.un, EGLX. Top 10 are in excess of 1.50% of position size. Bottom six are headed for exit ramp in due course.
Across entire non-reg and TFSA portfolio am underweight Cons Cycl, COMMS, Industrials, Healthcare and international multi-sector.
Pondering adding to existing or a new TFSA position to add to the 40-plus I already have. So how would YOU allocate this 10K today?

Q: Hello, in an answer to a question back on March 8th of this year you indicated some attractive entry prices for the Canadian CDR's of the Magnificent 7. What would be your current attractive entry prices given the changes over the past few months and the recent reporting season?

Q: Please comment on results- does this company have the potential to recover and what would be a good entry point?

Q: Is it time to buy Intel?

Q: Can you please comment this stock and its report? Thank you

Q: Please recommend ETFs to follow the Small Cap Index that you have the most confidence in; one in Canada and one in the USA.

Q: Thoughts on the quarter please?

Thx

Q: What would be your choice between :

DJQ1100-C (DESJ CP EP PL-F/SF/N'FRAC) offered by Desjardins or CASH offered by Purpose investment?


Thank you.

Q: My wife is currently doing a little experiment ($2000) with this fund because we can't believe what we see.

This month the fund is paying out 1.447 per share and has paid out more than a dollar every month this year, though less in previous years. Given the share price of $20-22, that puts the dividend at around 7.5% per month which would be a pretty good yearly payout.

I'm of the mind that if something seems too good to be true, it probably is.

Can you walk me through this one?

I am of the mindset

Q: I have recently become aware of the potentially valuable AI aspect of the otherwise uninteresting (to me) bitcoin mining business. Which firms are best situated to profit from AI?
