Q: BMY:

1 What is your current assessment of BMY?

2. Its share price has dropped in the last year. Does it have reasonable prospects to increase from here?

3. It has a somewhat attractive dividend, around 4.75%. Is that sustainable? Does it have any history of dividend increases?

4. Can you describe its pipeline potential?

Many thanks for your excellent service.

Q: Everyone, Richard asked a question about advisors, I don’t use one and never will. They only care about your money so they can have more assets under management- which is a status symbol for THEM. I used four advisors for two years fifteen and sixteen years ago and during our six month conversations I realized I knew more than them! So I started doing research and buying / selling on my own. I only buy the best of the best. Best decision I made and I am making more than twice the average rate of return most people are earning by buying and holding only good quality stocks. Staff at 5iresearch helps me every day with honest responses to questions. My thoughts Clayton.

Q: What are your sentiments on TSLA for the next 6 months? Buy / Sell / Hold?

While they do complete on quality and features, they are now also competing on price; obviously challenging for margins. Also Elon's comment about control are concerning, certainly suggesting conflict. I'd be OK sitting this one out if the 'story' will not clarify for some length of time. Energy storage systems to the rescue?

Thanks.

Q: Are there any particularly compelling resource stocks that are worth buying currently. I have zero exposure to commodities and I am fine with that, but I am open to your recommendations, either CAD or US. I am a moderate-to-agressive investor.

Thank you.

Q: Can you please rate CALF in terms of risk/reward on a scale of 1-10 and explain the reasons for your rating? I've always stayed away from small caps as I find the sector too volatile, but CALF is giving me second thoughts. I believe this sector is set to run, but am hesitant to invest given my perception of risk. Your thoughts on this ETF are most appreciated. Thank you.

Q: There is a lot mentioned about digital currency being adopted by central banks - last heard to-day on Michael Campbell's show, Replacing fiat currency? In which case the central banks and by extension governments or their agencies would be able to control what we spend it on and monitor us in terms of their political agenda - a good example is this climate change fiasco whereby they use it to tax us. What do you think the mechanism would look like to replace fiat with digital? And, how would gold pricing be affected - increase demand and thus the price?

Q: Curious about Upwork for the coming year, given that they have turned the corner and are now generating real profits. They apparently have heavily incorporated AI into their platform to the benefit of customers and users. Given these things, do you think it’s a worthwhile investment. Thanks for your opinion.
