Investment Q&A

Q: I am looking for US health exposure (growth) and was considering GH, VEEV, TDOC. I already own ZUH, XHC, IBB, IHI. Would you suggest adding to what I already own or would you buy 1 or all 3 of GH, VEEV, TDOC. If you have other recommendations, please include the stocks.
Thanks for your service

Q: Hello gentleman and thanks for your wonderful service as always. I'm wondering if you can point me in the direction of your preferred ETF's for the tech industry and the pharma industry.

Q: Hi,

1)What 2 sectors of the economy (not technology) would u be most confident of appreciating in the next five years? Consumer discretionary? Healthcare? Utilities? Banks?
2) I'm a medium risk investor looking a for a US etf with reasonable beta and sustainable growth. Can u suggest 2 or 3? It can have some tech but not be mainly tech as I already own AMZN, Apple, Netflix, Zoom, Shop.
3) Are there any CDN version etf's that cover the same sectors of the US? Can you suggest 2 or 3?

Q: Hi 5i team,
Could you please recommend ETFs that invest primarily in US small/mid cap biotech, medical equipment/pharma and digital/IT companies? Thanks.

Q: I own both of these ETF's. Are there duplications of companies and with the US election coming in November is it a good time to hold health care stocks or should I rotate to another sector?

Thanks
Dave.

Q: What are your 2 best choice ETF's in Healthcare; Technology and Utiliites in US or Canada?

Q: I don't currently have any exposure to health care/pharma companies and would like to start building a position in 2 or 3 companies. Can you please provide me with some names that you would recommend in this area, and the reasons why you think they are good investments.

thanks
Paula

Q: Basically this is a follow-up to a healthcare question asked by Sean July 6. My only healthcare position is the steady eddie medical devices ETF IHI. I would like to diversity in this sector using another ETF or two that has similar potential returns to IHI. Candidates are:
ARKG Genomic Revolution
BTEC Healthcare Innovators
PTH Healthcare Momentum
Are any of these worth considering? Or is it best to purchase a few individual stocks? Pros and cons please. Thanks - James.

Q: Hello 5i team,
Could you give a few ETFs and/or Mutual Funds about Science and Technology and one that tracks the Nasdaq in CAD$ or US$
Thanks,

Q: I have very little healthcare in my portfolio and also need to diversify geographically. There are so many opinions on what types of healthcare to invest in (drugs, medical devices (knees, hips), insurance, pharmacies, etc.) that I am struggling to jump in. What would be your top three healthcare related choices (outside Canada) to invest in for the long term.

Thank you for the great service you provide

Q: Due to the current pandemic situation and how medication to treat infected people and a future vaccine, do you see biotech as an area of investment opportunities? If so, can you suggest an ETF that represents the companies involved.
Many thanks

Q: I have some U.S. cash to invest. I feel the U.S. market is going a little bit lower over the next few weeks and this will provide a great opportunity to capitalize on. Which of the above would you consider to have the best outlook ( or would you suggest buying a little bit of all four )??

Q: I have a large cash position and am starting to re-deploy. Would like to take this opportunity to acquire a stronger US stock presence than I previously held. I am looking at about 40-50% in US to add to what will be a balanced diverse portfolio of Canadian stocks - many of 5i recommendations. I am happy with some overweight in tech .
I plan on putting in limit orders at lower prices than current and have my own price area for each identified, but as a "reality check" would appreciate some feedback from you as to what you think could be "suggested" buy prices on each stock.
Also, is there anything you would add to the list as Strong buy suggestions. Or anything you would delete from the list that you feel would not show a positive return in the next 1-2 years.
Thanks for getting out your crystal ball on this and congrats for coping so well with all the noise !

Q: I currently own IHI and GOOGL (only about $8000 in each} and with the recent severe downturn am looking at adding additional funds ($16000) to my portfolio. Am considering MFST and/or ESLT or would you recommend just adding to my existing holdings. These funds are in an non-registered account.

Q: I started picking away at these names a week ago and bought half positions in each (I'm always too early!!). I'll probably look to buy the other half in each this week if we get more spikes to the downside. I'm a relatively longer term holder (say next 5-10 years at least). With respect to IHI I usually stick to individual stocks but took a look at the top 10 holdings and decided they were all good companies so just bought the ETF. Do you see any issue holding these names?
