Investment Q&A

Q: Hi there what’s your thoughts on all the announcements by O yesterday?

Is it too late to buy or do you see a good run up in the coming few years?

Thanks!

Q: CELH continues to decline. I added once on the way down. Would it be worth while to add one more time to get too a full position?

Q: Just sold some Apple stock for two reasons. One, because the position was too large and two my potion in high tech stocks is also too high.
Need to redeploy the funds to healthcare I’m thinking of NVO or LLY.
What would you recommend and an entry point as well as the reason for the choice.

Thanks to the 5i team

Q: With the sweet run Nvidia has had, it is getting to be a pretty major chunk of my portfolio and I need to start trimming soon.

With the current momentum and the increased appeal to retail investors after the split, any thoughts on when to trim / when this run will start to ease off?

Thanks,

Jim

Q: I need to find a place to park a large amount of cash for the next 6 months - 1 year. the choices are GIC, CBIL, and HISA/CASH.TO.
I have looked to GIC and dislike it because the money is locked in for at least 1 year.
What are the risk associated with CBIL and HISA/CASH.TO. Is there risk of the holding company (Global X in this case) defaulting the money?

Q: When you peer into your crystal ball what sector do you see as out performing in the coming 12 months? And which US trading ETF best captures this incredible growth? (Just your best guess…no recriminations if you are off).
Thanks!

Q: 1. There has been a lot of insider selling the last few months, and their Q3 sales have missed expectations. Any concerns about buying ATD now?
2. Short term assets do not cover both short term liabilities or long term liabilities. Any concern about buying ATD now?
3. They have lost low end customer loyalty last quarter. Do they have plans to increase sales? Any concerns about buying ATD now?

Q: I always hear that when company Buy Back their shares that would benefit the investors. I know that when they buy back their shares number of outstanding shares reduces. Is there any other Benefit.

Plus I have seen company buy back their shares so shares get reduce and then they split their shares in next 2 years so in other words they increase their shares indirectly. Is this normal.

One example currently that Royal Bank buying back their shares usually they buy back when they are cheap on valuation since they are not cheap on valuation are they planning to split their shares.

Thanks for the great service

Q: A question was recently asked about AVUV, VIOV and DFSV; and the answer described them and ranked them in that order. TQSM was also reviewed.

My question: how does IJR rank and compare to these funds? Many thanks.

Q: Would you please please order the tech stocks in order of preference for long term hold with a brief explanation of each.
Would you consider CEG comparable to NEE?

Q: I own it. Do you believe it will go up from here (now $41.89). I’m wondering if I should sell all, half or none. Thanks

Q: can you comment on this about DRX from Simply Wall Street. Thank You

New major risk - Earnings quality

The company has a high level of non-cash earnings.

Accrual ratio: 26%

This is considered a major risk. Non-cash earnings can arise from many different things. However, if a company consistently has a high level of non-cash earnings, it may be a sign that they are recognizing revenue from customers before the full value of the sales are received as cash or they are not depreciating the value of their assets appropriately. These are practices that inflate earnings, while not providing a similar increase to cash flows. Companies in some select industries naturally have a high level of non-cash earnings and it is not a major concern. However, in the worst case scenario it can be an early sign of performance manipulation by management.

Q: AI has been shifting momentum away from stocks of traditional software companies in the tech sector, but CSU has continued to climb to new highs. Is there some reason CSU seems to be immune to present trends, or will they catch up to it?
