Q: AXSM
I owned this stock 2k shares at $18. It rose extremely quickly and I sold my position at $48.
It is now over $100, some of the current recent reports I have been reading are amazing and it was just upgraded with a target price of $180.
It is currently $100. What do you think of AXSM, should I just leave it and post the gain or should I reenter again at 5X the price I bought less than a year ago?
Your opinion would be appreciated.

Thanks


Sheldon

Q: I was reviewing my portfolio and thinking about 2020. Right now I have a large cash position and will want to invest some of that next year. But in what stocks?

An interview with Sir John Templeton on ROBTV many, many years ago came to mind and it may be a good advice for others.

Sir John was asked when was a good time to buy a stock and he stated "at the point of maximum pessimism".

Then he was asked when was a good time to sell a stock and he replied "you sell a stock when you find a better stock to buy."

I hope I can remember that advice as we move into and through 2020.

Q: Dear 5i,
In the parts of my portfolio that outside of the 5i Balanced Equity Portfolio, I want to add some US market exposure. I hold precious metals and some TLT in this area as well and was looking at an S&P500 ETF. IVV seems to have the best combination of dividend yield and low management fee followed by the O'Leary Quality S&P500 ETF which aims to own the highest quality companies (by balance sheet and earnings, I believe) in each sector of S&P500.

Is there one or the other of these that I should pick for holding in a TFSA or should I look to the CAD-hedged XSP or something else?

Q: Hi, Brookfield Infrastructure announced this $2.4 billion purchase of Bell Cincinnati by offering Bell shareholders Cash, but I am not sure if there was a mention of how company intends to finance the deal. They also indicated Brookfield's intention to invest $ 1 billion for Cicinnati Bell's infrastructure development. Any ideas, if company will use its cash resources or an equity financing may be in the cards and if so the time frame. I was wondering, if recent decline in unit prices from $70 to $63.65 had something to do with this. Thanks
