Investment Q&A

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

Q: 5I team: Is this bank a good buy at the under 69$ range and does the split have a negative effect? Would you consider it a good buy or prefer an alternative? Tks. Larry

Q: I am doing some investing planning.
Objectives are to reduce risks and to capture more dividend income.

Part of this process entails looking for companies that are ( almost) too big to fail - recognizing that nothing is totally safe. bam.a, bro.b, bx

As a category or label would you:
1. Agree that the companies above are “ conglomerates “? ( or something else?)
2. Are they “ almost “ too big to fail?
3. Are there others I missed? .. especially something you like better?

Thanks as a for your helpfulness.

Q: Hi Team,

With the assumption that retailers have an inventory problem there seem to me there are 2 outcomes:

1. Retailers take a hit on the products and sell at a lower price
2. Wages rise bringing more disposable income to purchase said inventory

Is there another case I don't see? How do you see this playing out?

Thanks!

Q: Hi there, ARKK has dropped very dramatically - about 75% to 80% from all time highs. I believe the 2000 .com bust had a similar fall in terms of percentages. In your opinion, has ARKK bottomed out here? Do you think it's time to finally start buying in the $40 to $45 price range? Lastly, do you see comparisons in buying ARKK today, similar to buying oil in March 2020 after oil went negative and XEG etc collapsed? Thanks!

Q: Hello Peter and team,
Looking at putting my cash which is doing nothing into GICs. Regarding bonds, would rather put directly into bonds rather an ETF and hold till maturity.

For now I am thinking about very short term GICs of 30 to 90 days with the expectation that longer term GIC rates will be higher in next few months as BoC hikes rates. Is this a correct assumption?

Please comment in detail about all of the above or other alternative approaches as I am trying to sort out how to best set up my fixed income. (Deduct as many questions as needed.) Suggested reading resources would also be helpful.

I have many income stocks in my portfolio, so not looking for advice about those.
Thank you so much for this service.

Q: I just sold NVDA for a tax loss but will be repurchasing it in 30 days. Would you buy a proxy for it or do you think things will remain unsettled for the next month? If you feel a proxy is prudent, what would your choice be?

Appreciate the insight.
