Q: Please rate these companies from best to worse. Are there any that you would add to? Are any outright sells?

Q: In a recent answer, 5i suggested that CELH may be a multi-bagger “ IF, and only IF, it follows MNST’s pattern of market-share gains and profitability. “ Could you please describe MNST’s business model of market gains and profitability? To date, how close has CELH matched MNST’s playbook, accounting for time in the market? What are the key attributes that CELH needs to build/hone/display, in order to match MNST’s playbook?

Q: It finally seems possible that Canada could ship some LNG off the west coast of British Columbia this year. I would like to gain exposure to the LNG complex in Canada by investing in a basket of shippers, producers and exploration companies. Ideally the list would contain some strong dividend payers as well as some companies that focus on growth. What would you suggest?

Q: Hi,
On Jan 9th I asked the following question
Q: can you tell me 1) if there is any difference in XEF and ZDM in terms of tax efficiency and 2) which accounts are best to hold these ETFs in in terms of tax efficiency (please rank from best to worse) ?

You answered the first part but not the second part. 2) Could you please rank from best to worse in regard to tax efficiency, which account (e.g., RRSP, TFSA, nonregistered) is best to hold them.
Thanks

Q: VEE has not done much in my portfolio over the years and as a result its weighting in portfolio has dropped. I would like to add to my emerging markets exposure but I am hesitant to invest in china with the growing tensions in the south China seas. Is there a liquid ETF that will give me the exposure I desire without the China risk.

Q: Hi,
In your answer to Jerry today (11-01-24) you had mentioned that you prefer ETFs like XEG and ZEO for the O&G sector play. Thank you.

If I want to avoid MERs and willing to put together a group of large/mid cap oil companies (not Gas) what companies would you recommend? About 5 to 8 names would be fine.

Also, why doesn't HXE as an ETF get the "love and respect" not only from you but from others in the financial media? Is there something inherently wrong with HXE?

Appreciate your response.

Q: In your answers to various questions about CLS you are showing a P/E ratio of 11. My information on the Company shows current EPS of $2.24 and a P/E ratio of 23.64. Earnings are expected to increase gradually.
I wonder why such a discrepancy? What am I missing? Thank you for your answer.

Q: A family member entering post-secondary school owns these stocks in their TFSA on an approximate equal weighting of $4,000. They have $8,000 to contribute and invest this fiscal.

The objective is growth with some risk; maintenance of capital is a secondary objective.

If allocating in $4,000 increments would you add to one or more of the existing investments or are there one or two you think would be better suited to a young investor over a 3 - 5 year investment horizon?

Thanks so much.

Q: Your thoughts on the S&P 500 over the next few quarters? Is the risk/reward in favor of stepping into both spy:us and spgp:us in equal proportion's. Or continue to collect 5% from money markets for a couple of quarters. Is the P/E for the spy and sogp all ready pricing in the profits for the year? Would you prefer spgp over spy or would you have other considerations? It looks like spgp has been outperforming spy.

Thanks
Brian
