Q: One of the themes that I am seeing is companies reducing in carbon intensity. It seems to be more prevalent in Europe right now, with companies building or buying wind and solar power generation for hydrogen production and use. How can one get exposure to European companies through North American markets including wind turbine manufacturing companies, as the European Union launches a new push to make hydrogen one of the clean fuels of the future? With Covid it seems that EU will push the green energy theme for bonds as well. What do you see as an implication of this in North America? What NA companies and ETF's would you see in this hydrogen arena?

Q: Growth stocks have outperformed value stocks for a number of years. My understanding is that growth stocks are currently at an all time high relative to value stocks. Presumably, at some point, this trend will reverse and value stocks will begin to outperform growth stocks.

Do you have any thoughts as to how much longer the growth outperformance will continue? What conditions should an investor watch for, to be able to detect the switch when it occurs, to outperformance by value stocks?

Many thanks for your insightful advice.

Q: NIO stock has shot up significantly over the last couple weeks; sales numbers for the last quarter looked strong. Financing is in place. What are your thoughts on this company and do you think it makes sense to jump on this EV play vs Tesla. Second question; if sales remain strong throughout the rest of 2020, where could you see the stock price by year end.

Q: Hi 5iTeam,
my question is a follow-up on a recent question raised by Ted regarding potential US estate tax liability on US situs investment. I remember a few years ago when Gordon Reid was on Market Call, he commented that even if one's US situs investment exceeds threshold of forty some US$ (I forgot the exact threshold amount) when one passes away, there will be no US estate tax payable unless the total value of the deceased's estate is over the exemption amount of US$11.4M. Would you please confirm if this is still the case.
Cheers,
