Investment Q&A

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

Q: Thanks for the great work in educating and helping us. Currently I have no exposure to Debt and all Investment is in Equity Stock or Pref. I was trying to use Preference shares as a proxy for Bond. Is that a wise strategy? Want to move some fund to Bonds/Debentures. With a long term view of 10 + years in a registered account can you recommend 2 bonds and 2 ETFs. Thanks

Q: Can you recommend a resource/book for my young teenager to begin learning about investing. The TV ads seem to focus only on the get-rich-quick trading aspects of making money without mentioning the get-poor-quick consequences of bad trading discipline.

I wanted something they could learn at their level to help evaluate the strength of a company as well as overall macroeconomy and technical analysis.

They may well decide to be traders as they turn into young men but at least having the knowledge of fundamentals, how to understand financial statements and technical would give them a foundation to build upon.
Thanks

Q: Hi, I wanted to get into the semiconductor space a couple months ago, so I bought Qualcomm. I'm very happy with that position, however I'm now thinking about adding a more speculative stock in this space. Can you please give me your opinion and analysis on ATOM and LLNW. Thanks.

Q: You’ve mentioned that you generally like to keep single ETF exposure to 15%. Since VGG and VGH invest in the same underlying ETF (VIG), should I keep exposure to 15% between them, or could they each still be 15%?

Thank you.
