Investment Q&A

Q: Good Morning,

Do you have more confidence in VHI or WELL for a three-year hold? If purchasing today, in what order would your preference be, including LLY? Thank you.

Q: Hi, looking at a couple of stocks that have had a good run. TVK comes to mind, I now have about a 7%+ position and doubled my money on this stock (thanks for your good work). I know it’s a personal preference but I’m unsure, part of me says let it run, another says sell at least 25% .
Do you have a set rule that you use with higher growth stock? And of course if I sell I have to find something else, or preserve my capital. (A good problem to have).

Q: Hi there, often times the 4% rule is used as a foundation for retirement planning. I believe the original study used US equities and US bonds as the funds to develop the 4% withdrawal rule. Obviously no one has a crystal ball, but what would be your opinion on using as international equity ETF with the 4% rule rather than a US fund such as VFV? If you were make an educated guess, do you believe using funds such as XEQT/VEXT and VAB/XBB instead of US funds would yield similar results as the 4% study over the longterm going forward?

Q: Good morning 5i
I am always interested in your strategy for options and the question about selling call options for Microsoft this morning raised some. I know that selling options can have many variables and will be context specific. And I realise that you cannot give a hard and fast set of rules. So, I hope you will bear with me on these questions. This morning you said that you would likely sell a call on msft going out a month for about $470. Today msft is at about $449. So, about a $20 difference. In previous posts you said that you would sell a call option just a few dollars above the price. I would take this to mean more like say $455 than $470. $20 represents about 5%. Is that what youwould see as a good point.?

Also on the idea of selling a put immediately upon exercise of the call. Would it be reasonable to sell both a call and a put at the same time and then if it was called away, then sell another put at $470?
Thanks

Q: Can you please list your 5 highest conviction large cap and med cap stocks for a 5+ year hold? All US holdings please.

Also, is it fair to say the market has fully rebounded? Or is the worse still to come? I understand it’s impossible to predict, but your thoughts are much appreciated.

Thank you for everything

Q: I have small holdings in HYLD (1.54), FMAX (2.24) and HUBL (1.51) for 5.29% in my overall US Financial portfolio. I would like to consolidate into only one ETF. I am leaning toward HYLD. Would you have any thoughts on this?. Your comments please. At my age, I am only investing for Dividends, Distributions and Interest. Thank You.

Q: What are your thoughts of AirBNB for the long term and it's current valuation?

Q: What are your thoughts on RE/MAX? I had initiated a position a couple years ago right before the class action losses and settlements related to the broker fees (so I'm down about 50%).

Most of their cash will be paid towards the settlements once the appeals are done, but it's already recorded as a payable so there shouldn't be a material impact to earnings once it's paid (although that cash will be gone).

Do you think now is a good time to add (assuming we get an eventual upturn in the cycle) or do you think new money is still better deployed elsewhere in the markets?
