Q: Moving from growth to income. Have a 76% realized gain and 76% unrealized gain on CAE.
What do you think of selling CAE ? Most dividend paying stocks I’ve looked at seem rather expensive. I already have full positions in AQN, BNS,BAM, CAR.UN, SUN, VGG, VDY, half position inT. Any dividend paying stocks that you would consider reasonable priced or discounted?
Unregistered account.

Q: PLBY (PLAYBOY GROUP INC.)

Please provide some thoughtful insights on PLBY Group.

The company has performed very well since it de-SPACed approximately 8 months ago. The company was taken public in 2011 by Rizvi, but since Hefner's passing in 2017, the company has shifted in a new direction led by CEO Ben Kohn (someone with great success in his previous ventures - taking minority stakes in pre-IPO tech companies [Twitter, Facebook, Square, Snapchat, SpaceX, Uber]). I have watched as many interviews from the CEO and recent developments I could get my hands on, and I'm impressed!

Retail Analyst Brian McGough from Hedgeye has touted this to be a potential 10 bagger ($250.00+ stock / 10B+ valuation) (See his publicly available tweets). Ben Kohn believes the company can be worth 40B.

The thesis here is multi-fold, which also includes improving licensing agreements (Hef and Co. were lackluster on this front), expanding in other categories, and possible NFTs (monetizing on their previous works).

There seems to be significant brand improvements from the old Playboy from my cursory exploration. www.playboy.com / www.yandy.com / www.playboy.tv
(Seems more youthful and gender balanced).

Just wondering if PLBY has come across 5i's radar, and what insights you can provide beyond the recent earnings report. Very much appreciated!

Q: Retired, dividend-income investor....normally. Assume I already have a balanced portfolio.

Considering topping up a 90% XIT position (my Technology weighting is 7.5%).....or...buying a small position in Copper Mtn (CMMC)....(my Materials weighting is 5.0)%. Reading prior copper questions indicates that you think there is much more room to run in Copper...for a while. Assume a roughly 1 year holding.

Second question = oil better than copper over the next year or so?

So, I guess the question is = please rank 1 year performance (best to worst) for Technology, Copper, Oil.

Thanks....Steve

The conservative side of me = XIT. The aggressive side of me = CMMC.

Q: On CNBC on Friday Tom Lee disclosed these 20 as his "Epicentre Stock Portfolio" and opined that the bottom is in. He seems to be quite revered and apparently his calls have been more correct than not. Could you list your best seven from this list that you would buy today in order. Any other comment of course welcomed as well - Ken
