Investment Q&A

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

Q: Thanks to recently learning about CDR's, I've been able to add NVDA (already up 20%) and LLY to my portfolio, which otherwise is dominated by TSX-listed stocks.

I'm interested in five other CDR's. Please rank them from your highest conviction pick to your least favourite: Amazon, Alphabet, Apple, Microsoft and AVGO.

Thank you very much for your service and advice. Pete.

Q: Have been considering a purchase of Intact Financial for exposure to insurance sector. But already own BRK.B , which I tend to think of in terms of its portfolio of holdings , but has at its core their insurance business .
Different animals , I guess , but how would you think about this ?
All other considerations aside , would you add to BRK.B or initiate a position in IFC ?

Q: A cursory look suggests CAP REIT, in spite of its fall in price, still trades at a high multiple to FFO. How much of an impediment is this to the recovery of this stock? I have held CAP through a tough multi-year stretch, liking its conservative approach, being in residential (vs other sectors), its selling non-core properties to invest in newer buildings, etc. Interest rates have hurt, but that trend line may be changing. What does 5i think of CAP here. Is it worth holding in a TFSA for better days?

Q: Kraken robotics uses Sophic Capital, which describes itself as a full-service capital markets advisory and investor relations firm for public and private growth companies.

Is it fair to think of them as a "promoter"? Usually I associate companies using a promoter as being scammy pump and dumps.

What is your take on Sophic and it's track record? Is it a legit expense for Kraken to spend on their services, or are they paying them to promote the stock and generate liquidity rather than using those funds to grow the business?

Do you like the stock now that it's trading around the $0.95 bought deal price, or is this creating an overhang and being propped up by a promoter?

Q: I currently own a 3% total portfolio in international markets. I plan to raise my total international exposure to 10% from new money available. Do you think it is safe to do so. My U$ exposure is at 42%. No bonds, 7% in money markets.

I currently own XIN and ZWE for distribution. Is there overlap between VI, XEF and XIN? How would you proceed? Can you rank and propose what my options are among these ETFs with the % you would allocate to each 2 or3 ? I don't want EMs.

Thank you for your precious help. You've made me wonders since I use your services.

Yves
