Q: Hi Peter & team,
I bought LMT in Sept/2014. The company has performed well when adding dividends total return close to 16% per annum. My concern is the longer I hold LMT return is decreasing... 5-year total return is under 10%. Since early 2020 LMT has underperformed the SPY. Considering a trade for GD that is showing a higher valuation with stronger forecasted growth? GD has also outperformed LMT significantly over past year. Considering LMT in a taxable account decision not clear. Seeking 5i's perspective on making this trade to GD or continue to hold LMT? Thanks in advance for sharing your great perspective and insight.

Q: Greetings,

I need to add an industrial and a consumer staple/discretionary to my overall well balanced US portfolio. After reviewing a number of options, my top in each category are GD and HBI. I am looking for some growth and a dividend as I am nearing retirement. I am betting that GD will continue its strong growth and HBI will turn things around. Your thoughts and do you have a better recommendation in each sector?

Thanks

Q: A guest of BNN suggested that seniors looking for yield should consider the larger US Industrials. He feels that the Industrial sector is already in recession and priced lower that results in good yields. Need to select ones with ability to continue paying dividend thru a rough patch.
Could you suggest ones that align with this theory.

Q: Hello Peter, I want to have a reasonable allocation to US industrials, including companies like UTX and Texas Instruments, those in the defence sector, etc. I'd like to do this via a well-priced ETF but am a bit lost in the growing ETF jungle. I already have small 2% positions in IWO and QQQ. To best gain exposure to the US industrial sector (including industrial technology stocks that are more economically sensitive), would you suggest I just add to these two ETFs, or can you suggest a better or more targeted one? (I do have a preference for Vanguard as a company, but that's not essential.) Thanks in advance!
