Investment Q&A

Q: Hi, just wondering if you had a chance to listen to the AGM of these companies this morning. I listened to it and they discussed a whole range of topics. They're all down 2-4% today. I'm assuming investors have some concerns of rising competition, ease of capital deployment, M&A opportunities, lowering hurdle rates, etc. Any concerns or thoughts going forward and do you see them continuing to outperform over the long term? These are long term holds for me. CSU is my largest holding at 5.8%, followed by LMN at 5.2% and TOI at 2.2%. Do these allocations look reasonable or should I balance them all out more evenly? Thank you!

Q: I'm looking to add a clear energy company and utility to my portfolio. I'm looking for compounding growth and open to Canada and the US. Please rank the following: Fortis, Emera, Canadian Power Corp and GE Vernova Inc. Also, if GE Vernova is an option, is there a prefered between the Canadian or US corps as I see listed on both.

Q: HI,
I dont have any credits and if you can assist in answering the question would appreciate it. Is CSU, LMN, and TOI still buys at today's prices . At this point, Is Knight worth holding? Thanks for your service

Q: Can you report on their latest earnings? Was it affected by the California fires?
What is the expected growth going forward?
Would you continue to hold this company?

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
