Investment Q&A

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

Q: What do you think of this fund? Wanting to put some of my elderly parent's cash in USD. Can you put Canadian dollars into this, or do you need to convert it first (trying to avoid transaction fees)? Also, as I read about it, it seems to have a fair number of Canadian holdings. Does that make sense? Thanks.

Q: It seems a lot of investors are trying to guess which pharmaceutical company will win the vaccine lottery. Assuming there is a vaccine developed by one of these private companies nobody knows what type of profit margin there will be. That seems like a high risk investment strategy to me. Logic suggests that the amount of money I, or my government, will spend to buy my COVID-19 vaccine will pale in comparison with the amount that will we will all spend on PPE, other medical equipment, hand sanitizer, etc, Rather than gamble on which company may win the vaccine lottery wouldn’t it make more sense to invest in XLV or other ETFs which include the companies that are guaranteed to benefit from all of this extra business?

Q: Hi, on a risk reward basis , what are the 3 oil companies you would invest with the highest leverage to oil prices ?, this will be no more than 2% of my portfolio, so I can take the risk of losing it if they go bankrupt . My exposure to oil is rather small and limited to large companies like Enbridge and Suncor. My view is that oil will have a come back in a 3 to 5 years time.

Q: Hi group 2 questions
- I was stopped out of Byd in late March since then have been waiting for pullback to get back in, unfortunately the stock just keeps going up. I am of the opinion the market is way overbought in general and my time should come or should I nibble away ? or do you have another strategy that may work. I intend to buy 1,000 shares over the next year
2 nd question I am thinking of buying Meg + Tog due to extremely low stock price Eric at Sprott has recommended them both as top picks - I respect his opinion what do you think ?...thanks
