Investment Q&A

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

Q: It appears oil prices are headed up this year but shares of companies like Exxon Mobil Corp. and Royal Dutch Shell and Suncor among others have lagged behind the oil market itself, and stock prices haven’t returned to pre-pandemic levels for a number of reasons that have nothing to do with the price of oil. Is there any other investment vehicle that would better reflect the rise in oil prices? How about OIL on the nyse?

Q: Hello 5I
Which path will be the best to follow from a growth prospective with the recent success of the mRNA COVID vaccines, the research that is going into cellular and genetic treatments of diseases and chronic conditions and cancers, the baby boomer population that probably hold a fair portion of the wealth and are hoping to stay healthier longer? Any companies and or ETFS that stand out? Or is this the wrong line of thinking?
Thank you for all you do and have done for me.

Q: Could you please compare these two companies post split. What is the business area differences they seem to very similar.
Could you also comment on their recent earning and potential trajectory.
Vmd raised a lot of money and I don’t see any action
Ptq seems to be more aggressively growing their business and very positive. Vmd is very quiet and not promotional. The both seem to be in an excellent space long and short term.

Q: Are REAL and RKT in the same business? I see that RKT is up 100% this week (largely due to a short squeeze and special dividend), but wondering if they are similar? What is REAL's valuation and growth prospects? Would you buy today?

Q: Hello, How come I do not see you recommend ZAG for bond exposure? I saw a recent question where you recommended ZCS for bond exposure. When I look at a 10 year chart, ZAG seems to have outperformed ZCS. Is it because of rising bond yields that you recommend holding ZCS as you predict better performance over ZAG?

Thank you!

Q: Hi 5i,

I’m a conservative investor who doesn’t like a lot of volatility. I want to diversify a little more from my banks, utilities, and Reits to get a little more growth. I like KXS but can’t handle that amount of volatility. Do you think TIXT would be more appropriate? Is it a good time to purchase at $36? I own OTEX and have no problem with its volatility.

Thanks
John

Q: Hello,
I already own these stocks. I am doing some selling / trimming / buying and would appreciate your comments:
DSG - I did well. Exposure at the high end but ok. How confident are you in the name for the next few years? If sold partially, I would allocated to KXS of TIXT. Your thoughts?
TOY - Do you like it more with momentum as of late? Decent long term hold or good time to sell at these level?
REAL - I am down about 25% but small position. I was thinking of adding at these level (or sell since position not big enough). It would be a long term hold. Your thoughts?
NFI - Hold or sell?
Fortis - Would you add at these level?
Thank you,
