Investment Q&A

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

Q: I feel as if I have owned Apple forever! I am now down 20% on the stock and just about ready to throw in the towel. Can you suggest a replacement in the same space with more growth potential? SIMO perhaps, which you have recommended before?

Q: Are there any companies/organizations in the Artificial Intelligence sector that 5i believes are good long-term investment opportunities; perhaps focusing application to diagnostic medicine. (Not so interested in driver-less cars, but believe that there must be tremendous long-term plays for companies perfecting diagnostic tools, for example.)
Thanks for your excellent investment analysis.

Q: Hello Peter and Team
Some success in writing covered calls on US stocks in you last article. What would be your advice if the stock price drops significantly below the original buy price after the option expires. AAPL down over 10% last week.
Would you still consider writing a call option at a strike price well below your original cost?
Would it be a better strategy to stick to less volatile companies?
Thanks for the advice
Peter

Q: I have a well balanced 5I style portfolio, Thanks. Regarding my US holdings I have SPY, EFA, IBB, IWO, VIG, TAL, YUM, XLY, AAPL and a little US cash. Apple is flat, the rest have been fantastic. What do you think about selling Apple and buying something tech like such as QQQ with about 4% of my US portfolio? If you think this is a good idea is QQQ the choice or something else in any sector?

Q: I lost a lot of money on Apple when it fell from $640 but I sold at $540 and bought back in at $490 on the way back up. I think it is a GREAT company with solid earnings growth and a low P/E but the market has a hard time giving it the same kind of respect that it gives Google, Amazon, Twitter etc.
What do you think about the stock for the next year and what would make you sell it?
Thanks,
Ken

Q: Hi 5i team,

I have held Apple for about a year. What's your thoughts on the stock within the next 2-3 years for growth potential? The company needs some sort of catalyst to get it going again, which seems like just a matter of time. Would you recommend being patient and continuing to hold this one? If not, is there another name in the sector that you would recommend switching into?

Thanks as always,
