Q: It's hard to beat a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup, but can you please provide your updated thoughts on the Hershey Company as a long term hold. It seems to have decent revenue and earnings growth for a Consumer Defensive stock, but I am concerned about its debt level. The stock price has really pulled back since early May.

Q: On Jun 21st, you responded to A regarding stocks for a TFSA. My son has a smaller TFSA but a longer time frame. He currently holds ZSP in his TFSA and we have been looking at adding some stocks. We like all the ones you suggested, but some of them are also in the top ten holdings of ZSP. Would you suggest adding the individual stocks anyway? Or selling ZSP and holding only stocks? Our initial plan was to make ZSP about 20% of this TFSA and then hold 8-10 stocks. Also, what do you think of adding AXON and AMD to his TFSA at this time? Thank you.

Q: Hello, I own VMW, and could you help me understand the take over price from AVGO? The current take over price is at $ 61B or $ 142.50/share in cash, and today the stock is at trading at ~ $ 157.00 ..

Also, we can elect 0.250 of Broadcom share. If this is correct, at today's price of AVGO at $ 900.00 , I can get ~~ $ 225.00/share for VMW...
I appreciate if you can clarify my options.
Thanks

Q: This is a comment rather than a question. Like other 5i investors holding this stock, I am disappointed with the recent price decline. While no one likes stock price depreciation (except shorts of course), I have to credit 5i with at least having the decency to admit that it was wrong. In a world where blame is often deflected or excused for some reason or other, I find it refreshing that 5i has the integrity to admit a mistake. Let's hope there are better days ahead for this company. I suspect there will be.
