Investment Q&A

Q: I’ve considered NVO and LLY somewhat equivalent due to their exposure to obesity drugs. Is there an opportunity to sell some LLY to buy more of NVO because it has underperformed lately?

Q: Is there any recent news on this stock? Do you have an opinion on the future here. Is there technology approved/confirmed? Are we at the marketing / contract stage of growth? Have had some nice price appreciation in some other small cap Canadian companies lately. (PNG, ZDC AEP) Do you feel this company is ready?
Again Thanks for your help

Q: Hi,
I reviewed Q&A on INTC post "melt down"! I can understand your words of caution.

My question is based on a recent comment by a guest on BNN Bloomberg (Mark Sebastien) who said that INTC's fabrication unit alone is worth 22$. With QCOM and hedge funds circling around and the technical pattern indicating the possibility of island gap reversal, worth taking a small position for a quick 20-30% profit?
(22 to 30$ jump).

Am I dreaming or being delusional?!

Q: Hi All at 5i! I have 44K in CPD in a non registered account which provides me monthly income via dividends. I prefer a stock which pays a decent dividend but also offers some growth. I would like to sell my CPD which has given me no growth and reinvest in better growth/ dividend paying stocks. Could you offer me the names of 5 such stocks?.
Cheers,
Tamara

Q: Visa fell yesterday (because of DOJ's accusation?). How significant do you think this is?

Q: Can you provide your latest thoughts on MRVL. It seems to be gathering speed. What say you?

Q: Hi,

Do you think that the Growth Portfolio is poised to outperform the balanced portfolio moving forward? You've mentioned in other threads that small caps have underperformed in the past 5 years; is that compared to large caps, or is that compared to an index?

Also, when comparing both portfolios to American ETFs such as VFV, they both seem to underperform. Which portfolio would you recommend for a long-term 40-year hold in a TFSA to maximize returns? Or would you recommend a different investment into an American fund to maximize returns over that same time horizon?

I like the strategy of investing in small-cap stocks for higher growth but also don't want to disregard the balanced portfolio if you believe that small-caps will continue to underperform moving forward.

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts

Q: I still have my LSPD stock (at quite a loss) and just wondering with the current announcement of the companying possibly selling or taking it private, if this is the time to sell now or hold on to see what materializes? Is it conceivable that the Company could sell and if so, what might the stock price go to? Your thoughts please...
Thank you!
