Investment Q&A

Q: Hi, Is too early to bet on INTC after their new AI chip announcement? What would be a good wait-and-see period?

Q: In an answer to a recent question you indicated possible actions by ADEN such as acquisitions, dividends, and share buybacks which could be funded internally. Can I have your thoughts on the recent bought deal with which the market is not pleased.

Q: Hi,

What is your opinion of SNOW ? If you like it, is this an entry point as the momentum is against it.

Q: Now that the spin off has been approved, which of the two entities do you prefer for an investment? Or do each have their strengths and you like both but for different objectives (if yes, what type of portfolio does each belong in?).
Is one likely to carry the debt burden more than the other?
Thank you as always!

Q: Long time holder of TRP. Now that the spinoff is approved, do you suggest we simply wait for the process to unfold, resulting in owning both TC Energy and SouthBow?

My understanding is TRP is the gas-nuclear entity and is considered to be the more conservative, while SB is the oil pipelines and considered to more aggressive of the two.

Any idea of the post split dividends for each company? I understand the cumulative dividend is supposed to be the same as pre-split.

Also, I own TRP in both an RRSP account and a Cash account. Keep all 4 post-split equities or does the account type lead you to suggest a different strategy for RRSP vs Cash?

Thanks...Steve

Q: I was looking for Metal ETF that holds only Metal.

We reccomend: COPX for copper and for uranium URNM or URA. On the gold side, there are direct spot exposure gold ETFs, some we like are GLD and GLDM. There are also gold stock ETFs for which we suggest GDX and GDXJ.

Thanks for the great service

Q: Hi 5i,

Thanks as always for your incredible insight on all things investments. My questions revolve around Dividends.

I am new to the world of Dividends and to date I only own one Dividend paying stock (ATD); and would like to add several others as a means to diversify my investment portfolio. Hopefully I am not too late to the game. I am 50 and looking for long term investment.

I have taken a look at your Income Growth portfolio but if I am being honest, I don't know where to start. Knowing you cannot personalize recommendations - hoping you can at least offer solid guidance.

Can you please share you favorite 5-10 (CA or US) and rank starting with the best. Would appreciate dividend stocks which offer diversification across sectors if possible. Any best practices you could offer in this area (TFSA vs RRSP vs LIRA etc.); I would be most grateful for as well. Thank you in advance!

Q: Hi Peter and Staff

May I have the returns including dividends January 1/24 to May 31/24 for

-TSX
-s&P 500
-Nasdaq

Thanks for all you do
Dennis

Q: Hello, I’m confused about what happened with Enerplus. I own 801 shares. Now that it is part of CHRD, how many shares do I hold and how do I list it in my 5I portfolio?

Q: Hi, I want to add a high dividend stock to my USD portfolio. Do you have any suggestions?

Q: Time's up!
I've had enough of both Veeva Systems and Well Health. Down about 50% in both. Planning to cut my losses in TFSA account (grow for next 5 years) and move to LLY (full position), ISRG (half position).
This will also increase US holdings percentage in this account.

This is a follow up to the TFSA competition with my wife question from last month. :) I'd prefer not be trading too much, but just can't see these 2 companies recovering too soon, and I cannot get the long term price graph of LLY out of my mind....


Comments before I pull the trigger?



Thanks,


Jim

Q: Would you start a full position today on NVDA, can it reach $US 2,000 this year.

Q: Hi team,

I sent the following question last week and have not seen any reply yet. Did you receive it ?

Here is the question.

Which are your favorite cyclical stocks presently, Cdian and U.S., for strong growth in a TFSA ? Could you comment at the same time on CAVA-N, COIN-Q and PDD-Q ?

Gratefully,

Jacques IDS

Q: Propel looks to me like a good company to go private or be taken over by another such as gsy. What are your thoughts on this. Thanks John

Q: Has the date been announced when the South Bow Corp will be spun out of TC Energy? Just wondering if it will be before or after the next dividend record date at the end of June. Thank you

Q: May we please have your analysis of the Q4 results and future prospects. Thanks.

Q: Your thoughts on Southern Energy quarterly results and also what you think of there management? For higher risk is this a good N. Gas, LNG play in the US or do you have better ideas?
Thanks

Q: when is the 4 for 1 split happening?

Q: What do you think of SVOL for income generation? It seems like the etf is doing what it's designed to do and prices have leveled out since initial offering. What's the biggest risk with holding this wtf?

Q: Can you please recommend CDN ETF for REIT, Utilities and Financial sectors. Would you be comfortable holding 10% in each sector

Thanks for the great service
