Q: Hello Peter / 5i Team,

NDM has been on quite a run lately. I previously held this name back in 2016 for a short-term trade, during a time when there was renewed optimism around exploration and the potential development of the Pebble Project.

I’d appreciate hearing your current insights and outlook on NDM. How do you view its valuation and broader expectations moving forward? I understand that some of the recent movement may be linked to the “Trump trade” narrative—do you see any real merit to this as a viable trade or longer-term hold? Do you have any updated price targets?

Also, are there any other names in this space that you currently prefer?

Thanks in advance.

Q: Good Morning;

I am looking for two ETF (preferred) recommendations that as a stand along investment product would include first, holdings representing a well rounded Growth portfolio (for a TFSA) and second, holdings reflecting a well structured Balanced portfolio for an FHSA. My preference for these products is because there is not enough money in either to create that portfolio of stocks and bonds, and I do not want to be trying to pick a solitary stock "winner". The holders of these portfolios do not have the time to learn investing at present, so this approach seems "easiest".

Thanks very much

Q: Hi,

If you had to choose between the two for "total return" in the present economic environment, which of the two would you choose?
Do you have any other suggestion for covered call income that you would prefer over these two?
Regards

Q: I currently hold Life and HHL ETFs for their dividends.

How would you compare HHIS to these 2 ETFs? Hhis has a yearly of +20%, payable monthly . Does HHIS return capital as part of their monthly payment? Are those payments taxable as interest only?

If I am comfortable holding Life and HHL, should be comfortable holding HHIS?
