Q: Hi 5i,

For a new position and a 5+ year hold do you currently prefer IWM over IWO? Or could you recommend another ETF that would be good small cap exposure. Would IWO be a bit more challenged in a higher inflation environment?

Q: Hi 5i,
I know you haven’t been big fans of WBA due to their debt load. They had a decent earnings beat today, boosted by Covid vaccinations. They took a majority interest in Village MD to open more health clinics attached to their drugstores. They are also considering exiting the sale of tobacco products.
What are your thoughts on WBA these days with this renewed health focus?
Thanks again.

Q: While Cielo seems to be getting its act together my take is that current work relates to pilot plant development and it will be some while yet before capacity, and revenues begin to emerge. Do you have a time line that might be used to commit to a worthwhile investment and what product competition they could face roughly within that timeframe?
