Q: Today, I heard Mike Philbrick on Market Call, and one of his top picks was a USA managed futures etf: DBMF (I couldn't see it in your co drop down above). Also, recently I heard on Animal Spirits a podcast on managed futures as well, etf: KMLM, by Krane Shares. I’m interested in knowing what 5i thinks about Managed Futures? It seems it might be a good diversifier for one’s portfolio. Do these etf’s have decays when their futures contracts get rolled over? What are the negatives of these etf’s? Which one would you prefer and why? Or is there another one you like better? Or is it simply better to raise some cash when we think markets get over valued?

Q: I have a 1% position in PBH, and an extra 1% cash to deploy: I am debating between doubling my PBH position to 2%, or selling PBH and initiating a 2% position in COST. My time horizon for this investment is quite long (greater than five years): which would seem to be the more prudent choice?

Q: Hello, I like these two stocks and already have a 2% position in them. I'd like to continue building, but I keep reading how they are both currently overvalued. However, they seem to continue climbing in price! My positions are considerably lower than today's prices, so do you think averaging in would be okay or wait for a dip that may never come? Or could you suggest a couple other options for stable but high growth over the next few years? Thank you so much!

Q: Hi 5i, Could you help me understand what is going on with Hamilton Thorne (HTL)? I received a notice of a special meeting of shareholders. It looks like a takeover to go private and shareholders will receive $2.25 per share. Does that sound right? In these cases is there any chance they will not go private or do you think it that happens, it is just delaying the inevitable? Thank so much.

Q: Everyone seems to dislike bonds these days, especially long-term bonds. I was considering TLT for a portion of my portfolio, but I noticed a very poor return this year (4.7% one-year return), even though the Fed has clearly signaled rate cuts at the upcoming meetings. One explanation for the poor performance of treasuries is the oversupply of bonds. With U.S. debt ballooning, there seems to be fewer buyers. While, in theory, TLT's price should increase as rates go lower, I was reading that it may, in fact, remain flat and stuck in the sub-$100 range due to the oversupply. What are your thoughts on this?
