Q: Hi 5i Team,
I want to add some exposure to the gold sector to my portfolio. What would you suggest given the current market? Gold bullion ETF (CGL), Equity ETF (XGD or ZGD) or invest directly in a Gold producer like AEM ? And what % would you suggest for a mid-40 investor?
Thanks

Q: I’ve owned AAPL for the past 15 years+ and it now represents a 3.5% position of my overall portfolio. 10 years from retirement with a risk reward appetite leaning to measured risk. Top holdings in order are BN, GOOG, NVDA, AMAZ, WSP, BkNG, CSU, ISRG, V, AXON then AAPL. If it’s you, do you keep it or find something with a better growth trajectory? I’m over in consumer discretionary and under in staples so wondering if a move to DOL makes sense? Thoughts?

Q: Looking to sell LYB and purchase one of these two preferred shares can you tell me which one you prefer and why ? Both these stocks have wild fire issues out west in the USA. Maybe I should just be more patient with LYB to grow thus getting a capital gain as the dividends are about the same.

Q: The listed companies have used their tech to expand beyond their original business channels to a point that they are woven into the fabric of society. At some point early on they were good businesses with high potential that have risen to levels I could not have contemplated. Looking beyond AI, can you think of three companies out there in any sector that are working on things that have the potential to become central to our way of life in the way that these giants have? These can be well known companies that you think are on the cusp of big things or smaller companies with ideas that are a long shot.

Thanks
