Investment Q&A

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

Q: I own GAMESYS GROUP PLC REGISTERED in my TFSA and to be honest, I'm not sure how I ended up with it. It has done quite well but I'm thinking I should sell it as I have no real understanding of the company I'm not sure how to even sell the position (OTC) I think). Thoughts?

Q: Recently, a number of firms have brought out All-in-One ETFs, such as VEQT. If an investor wishes to be 100% invested, and diversified globally, then this ETF offers the advantage of rebalancing to the ETF's geographic weightings. These All-in-One ETFs are overweight Canada given global market capitalizations.

In contrast, there are ETFs offering similar low fees which represent the market capitalization of all global equities, such as XWD or VXC (w/o Canada). These ETFs are effectively rebalancing to reflect the global market capitalizations.

For a long-term hold, which investment do you feel will do better? Is an investor better off choosing say VEQT, or VXC? These two ETFs have similar ETFs. Is there a better alternative which you would recommend?

Your insights are much appreciated and valued. Thank-you.

Q: Hello,
Given the recent announcement of that new SE Asia trading block, should one consider increasing and overweighting VEE or XEC, or another Intl ETF? Thank you.

Q: I am looking to add your suggestions of Palantir and Pinterest. Can you please rank them with some of my current 5i holdings in terms of growth highest to lowest and risk highest to lowest. These are 1-2 percent fringe plays and I have a balanced portfolio so I am not worried about cap size, geographic location etc. Thanks very much as always for advice.

Q: Hello 5i,
I a question on Sunday which hasn't been answered so I will try again. In a recent article which you generously shared with us on Nov 13, entitled, "You May Regret Staying in US Stocks" the author says that a good number of US investment managers are in agreement that for various reasons, US stocks will not be growing as fast as international stocks in the future. I was wondering whether you agree with this thesis? Also, do you think that the etf"s mentionned above will cover what is needed, or should I look at others? I will not be going out and selling all of my US stocks if this thesis is correct. But, I am low on my international section anyway. But, I have been hesitant to add to them.
thanks very much

Q: I am looking at CRSR after their recent earning beat. Do you still consider it “interesting”? How would you compare it to Unity software? Unity is competing with Unreal Engine which game developers like more but I realize Unity is more than gaming. I also have a friend who loves Corsairs products so I am leaning to CRSR. Could you comment on insider ownership and any lockup’s from both of their recent IPOs?
