Q: Hi. Own NTR. Has performed well. That said, considering switching for COW. Dividend better with NTR but reduce one company risk. Would still have focused exposure to the sector. Thoughts?

Q: Hi 5i ,
I plan to increase my exposure to oil and agriculture. while doing my research, valuations and the RSIs have increased substantially. For example, stockta.com provides the following Alerts for LUN and TECK.B -"Stochastic Overbought Reversal' which I assume means that a reversal can happen any day. I assume that some holders are likely to take some profit soon. Most of what I have read says that you should wait for the RSI to come down but I also understand that the RSI can remain elevated for some time. Should I wait? or could these sectors be on a tear?
Please advise and thank you for your help

Q: What do you think of agriculture as an investment? I think it is a good inflation hedge (and a lesser known investment asset class). Do you know of any good ways to get exposure. I see LAND and FPI, but don't know too much about it.
How are the valuations / how does one valuate those things?

Q: I have owned COW for several years as a way to hold some agricultural stocks. Is this still a good plan or are there other ideas that would be better?
Q: Hi, I feel like I'm light on Agriculture/Food exposure and seeking a recommendation if you think there's some good opportunities here. I have a small portion of COW but not sure if I should add or select another name to increase my exposure?
Q: Do you have any pulse producers or processors on your radar at all? Or an ETF that covers this space? Thank-you.

Q: Do you have any recommendations for Agricultural ETS's for income? (10 year hold)
Q: I currently own COW at 1% weight and AFN at 2.5% weight. Would you suggest to top up the 2 stocks or would be okay to buy AGU to make the total sector weight up to 5%.The other thought was to sell COW and buy AGU.
Thanks
Thanks
Q: Cheers
Are there any ETFs that can be used for agricultural commodity futures? Or what do you think would be the best way to take advantage of rising agricultural commodity prices directly.
Thanks.

Q: Hello, I am reading there may be increased money flow back into agriculture, besides these two etfs, do you recommend any Canadian etfs/stocks that may provide similar exposure. Would it be better to stick with these with the added benefit of a possibly strengthening US dollar?
Q: 5-I team
What recommendations do you have regarding investing in the agricultural sector? This can be in the form of any individual stocks I could do research on, ETFs or any other type of vehicle you could recommend for a conservative investor who wants diversification. This could be in Canada, the USA or elsewhere.
Many thanks
Paul
