Investment Q&A

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

Q: From the media: “ Amgen stock slouched Wednesday after a Lilly exec called the company's early-stage test results for a weight-loss drug "a bit underwhelming."

Huh? What did they expect a competitor to say? I thought the quarterly results were good and the new drug seems quite promising.

What is 5i's take on the AMGN recent quarter (which beat) and future prospects? Wouldn’t it be better to buy AMGN after the sell-off than pay the overhyped price commanded by LLY?

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: I currently hold all these stocks, with the exception of elf. I came up with the thanks in large part to 5i as these are names that have come up in various Q&As. If you had to pick only 10 to hold long term (which for me is 1 year), what would be your ten? The 10 should be those that are the best expected performs regardless of diversification or risk. Just the top 10. Alternately., would you suggest holding them all but with different weightings and if so please comment on a suggested weighting.

My plan was to hold 10 with 10% in each but I’m not married to that idea.

Thank you kindly.

Q: According to portfolio tracking and analysis, I am short on basic materials, consumer cyclical, consumer defensive, health care and industrials. I’m also significantly short on international equities. With this in mind, can you provide your top 3 to 5 companies for each sector to increase my holdings in basic materials, consumer cyclical, consumer defensive, health care and industrials. To increase my exposure in international equities, I will be investing in ETFs. Please provide and rank the top 5 ETFs with international exposure. Thank you.

Q: This period of seasonal weakness is a great time for some early Christmas shopping. I sold a part position in NVO a while ago and am looking to reinvest proceeds to increase my health care holdings.

Considering current valuations, what would you recommend as a good complement to expand and diversify?

Thanks in advance.

Q: Hello 5i,

I'm looking to get into Europe through multi nationals in the UK. Currently own Rio-tinto and Unilever. If you could name five other dividend paying companies trading on a US exchange worth buying it would be very helpful.
Thank you!

Q: I have done very well on Novo Nordisk - likely because of the hype around Ozempic. Despite selling 10%, my position is likely close to double what I'd consider a typical holding.

I don't need the money and the stock has been a good long term hold. I am inclined towards holding a somewhat "fat" position. How do you see the valuation and is there any way to assess the value of things they have in the works?
