Q: Hello!

The last question on RPC Inc. was back on March 1 when it was trading at $6.45. Since then it has traded largely between $5 and $6 and is at $5.05 this morning.

Any change in your assessment of RPC Inc. since then? Oil (crude futures) has appreciated ~20% during the same period, for what that's worth.

Thanks as always,

Marc.

Q: Hi 5i Team - Equinox Gold has been falling steadily for the past several weeks. Do you know of any particular reason for the decline. Also do you think the fundamentals are strong enough to add to a small position at this lower price. Thanks.

Q: Hello 5i Team.

Thank you for all the insights into investing - it has been profitable both educationally and financially.

7% of our portfolio is in geared to health care with a holding of 5 stocks , GUD - (slightly underwater but is the hopeful flyer), Medtronic - MDT, Cardinal Health - CAH, Abbvie - ABBV, Johnson & Johnson- JNJ. In an effort to reduce the overall number of stocks in our TFSA, RRSP and taxable accounts I was considering liquidating CAH and JNJ and either purchasing more ABBV or adding SYK, unless of course you can recommend another US health care stock. JNJ and and CAH have been the laggards of the US group since my initial purchases. I realize MDT and SYK might be similar but i do believe surgeries should increase in 2022.

I enjoy reading your resources and recommend it often.

Q: I have farming friends who are telling me of a very serious drought not only in Canada but the US as well. I am wondering about holding this in my RRSP where I have a lot of US cash.I know you can't hold commodities there but this is an etf that holds commodities contracts. Because of that does this qualify as an eligible holding?

Q: Is this a buy, hold, or sell and why?

Thank you
