Q: Hi Peter et al:

This is a big picture question based on the recent article on optionson5i Research and also based on Peter's expertise on Options trading. After all your i2i fund is based on this strategy, if I am not mistaken, right?

How does one screen for stocks , selling cash secured puts and Covered calls? Any particular favorite screeners that we can use who don't have fancy Bloomberg terminals? Your excellent article in 2015 talked about Covered calls (where is the promised follow up article?! :)) YouTube is filled with clips that promote either courses or their black box products. I want to develop a methodology that I can use in a systematic manner.

IF I want to protect myself for the expected and very possible downturn in the markets, how does one employ this technique?

Finally what are your stocks selection for such an approach at this time? ( Both for Selling cash secured puts and Covered call)

Feel free to deduct as many credits as you deem fit.

Many thanks.

Q: According to your weekly review received Saturday the Canadian dollar was 73.96 and the TSX ended the week up 1.6%
However according to Saturday’s Globe and Mail the Canadian dollar was 73.57 and the TSX closed at 21,984 or up .3% for the week.
In the future it may be better to postpone your weekly market view until the next market day as obviously there must have been a drop in markets during the closing hours.

Q: Can you please share your favourite Cdn dividend growth stocks for long term hold in a non-registered account.

Thanks,

Q: As Cerberas is not publicly traded, you may not have much to say but I thought I would ask. I read an article from Forbes, “Cerebras Update: The Wafer Scale Engine 3 Is A Door Opener” detailing their technology. With all of the fever surrounding AI, I found the discussion interesting, albeit over my head.
Any thoughts on their technology and its prospects to be adopted more widely? Any thoughts on weather they might eventually go public? Their web site has a link to a private equity investment for as little as $5000. Is this an option for a regular Joe like me?
Thanks In advance for any insights you very wise folks may have.

Q: Hi,
