Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Peter; The perennial “ bear”, aka Rosenberg, basically just trashed the BOC last rate bump, saying the 2% level , they want is there. Could you comment on whether you agree or don’t and why ? Thanks.

Q: These covered call, leveraged ETFs seem to be very popular right now. Fees seem to be high in general on these funds, 2-2.5%. Horizon just introduced a suite of ETFs including the above 2 which I am interested in. They are funds of their own funds and usually products like this waive the management fee of the underlying fund. Do you know if this is the case for these 2?
I’m hoping Horizons large scale will allow them to keep their fees under control.

Q: After reading your past replies to questions regarding STM, I wonder if you can update your opinion based on news and events since your replies in March and May? The price is higher now but have you also seen increased reasons for investors to look at this? Would it be a worthy buy today or something to wait on and buy only in the event of a pullback?

Assuming you like it, could you compare and contrast the risk and reward between this and something like SMCI? Which would you expect to do better and why?

Thanks

Q: Hi All at 5i! I own both of these stocks and now having broken even I would like to sell them. Do you think they have strong potential growth?? If so I may reconsider. If not, could you suggest some good solid US alternatives … not necessarily proxies.
Thank you,
Tamara

Thanks for the many years of guidance! Member since the beginning!

Q: In a US $ registered acct with a growth tilt, equities that we hold in a 'smaller' % (1%-2.5% range) of total portfolio are as follows: ADBE, BKNG, CROX CRWD, META, SMCI . Would you put new money into any of these ? At what price ? And what approximate % of a total portfolio would you go up to for any of them ?
Thank you

Q: Hi,

Reviewing the Q&A section, I see you are positive about PLTR but have cautioned that it is expensive. I reviewed research reports on iTrade's website and see the analysts have a SELL rating!! What is your current take on PLTR?

I would like to initiate a small position. (Use your suggestion to buy one third now, one third later and finally full position.)

Also what are other companies that you would suggest as an alternatives, if not PLTR?
Many thanks.
