Investment Q&A

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

Q: Morning 5i,

Looking to diversify our portfolios
Longterm hold.
Wanting to add a real estate position(s)
Obviously we could go up or down due to covid and a rougher than expected recovery.

Looking for advice on which to do first.
ETF, such as above OR pure play such as CAR.UN?
Which is a huge portion of XRE anyways.
*your top rec's in this sector would be greatly appreciated as well.

Understanding the risks and dynamics our thought was adding an attractive pure play at lower valuation and then the reit assuming it may be depressed for a longer time period.

Looking forward to your advice and thank you for the great stuff here! The info is tremendous.

Q: Stagflation is beginning to be mentioned as a medium term possibility. What sector(s) provide best protection against this and could see growth? Can you recommend an ETF or two (if a handful of individual companies would be better, please recommend a couple instead). Thank you in advance.

Q: Hi 5i,
Macys recently announced an offering of $1.3b senior secured notes and judging from share price spike the markets seem to like something about it.
Can you tell me why this happened and if this stock is investable with potential at current price, for a 2 year time horizon. Why/why not?

Thx

Q: Thank you for the great service you provide.
I would like to increased my industry sector holdings. I presently have TRI, BBU.UN,HON, (full position of CNR and CPR combined), FTT,
STN and NFI ( in the portfolio analysis summary NFI is listed as consumer spending cyclical. Should it not be listed as industrial? )
Goal is growth and income. 2 to 3 year hold.
Are there any you would sell?
Are there any you would add to?
Need to increase US funds as well.
Thanks so much.

Q: "...digitizing the delivery of healthcare by providing patients access to all points of their care from their phone, tablet or desktop computer." Purely speculative at this point, the concept is interesting in today's world and beyond where avoiding waiting rooms full of potentially sick people is preferred. Anyone at 5i looked at this little stock? Got any thoughts?
Much Appreciated as always,
Stephen
