Q: Hi do you like this as a contrarian play? The yield looks strong with good 2-3 year appreciation is share price. Is this strong opportunity to buy at a discount. Jamie Dimon claims the worst of the banking scare is behind us now. Would you agree?
Q: Can you me give your read on this company. It has had quite a fall and, if I am not mistaken, it initial IPO. Analysts are forecasting quite lofty price targets, however the earning forecast don't seem to be there. I do have a very small hold and I trying to decide if this would be a rare occasion where the 5i team would endorse an "average down" purchase.
Much appreciate.
Q: Why is the VIX so low just weeks prior to a politically driven US debt crisis. A similar crisis in 2011 exhibited extreme volatility until an agreement was reached . In the short term downside risk seems more probable than markets going up. You cannot time the markets but what would you suggest as a near term strategy to protect your portfolio.
Q: First Horizon is down significantly after TD called off the deal. I’m just looking for your opinion on this company as an investment now? It looks like a great buy now with limited if downside. They are profitable and have a history of increasing dividends. Thanks.
Lately, Telus is under-performing Bell by quite a lot. On days when both stock prices are increasing, BCE goes up by a greater percentage than T, and conversely, when there's a decline, BCE declines less. We own both in our combined accounts, and Portfolio Analytics indicates that our Communication Services sector should be increased. If we wish to do this, is BCE the safer stock?
Also, is there something going on here that is causing this under-performance of Telus?
Q: Reviewing my portfolio and these are my losers. Any point hanging on to any of them? Surprised at BN as it always seems to have positive reviews and CYBR which I though would ride the technology wave.
Q: I've been looking for an addition to the US side of my tfsa, sort of looking at the following (bn tri qlcm blk bac) but would appreciate any other suggestions, looking for growth with dividends, if possible, buy and hold investor and can take volatility.
Q: I know you sold AC out of the 5i portfolio this year but I opted to wait for a bit.
It has now crawled back to my avg cost price and I do plan on selling. I know this is a 'timing' issue, but could you dust off your crystal ball and give an opinion based on any current information you're hearing, on whether to sell now or wait until after results are announced ?
Thank you.
