Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Hello, I'm looking to take a large position (for me!) as part of a generational investment approach and I'm trying to decide between the two or to invest in both.

Here are some the questions I was hoping you could include in your answer:

Do you see these as good candidates for a set-it-and-forget-it long term investment?
What are some of your reasons for preferring one over the other?
Do they ship a similar product mix?
Do they have similar revenue growth - both pipeline and non-pipeline?
Is there a difference in financial health/dividend stability?
Do they ship to similar places? eg Henry Hub for gas/Texas refineries vs cross-Canada vs international shipping ports?
Would you prefer one vs the other or would you allocate a portion in each?

Q: Hi 5iTeam,

I wish to setup a long-term equity portfolio for my child consisting of the following:

QQQ - 30%
SPY - 30%
XIC - 10%
VEA - 30%

Rebalancing will be done annually.

Do you have any suggestions on how to improve the risk-return profile of this portfolio? For example, should additional ETFs be added to incorporate "value", "small-cap", "emerging markets" and "frontier markets"?

Your comments are most appreciated.

George

Q: Just bought a position in SOXQ. This appears to basically have identical holdings as SMH. SOXQ is not charging a management fee until December and subsequently are only charging a fee of 19 points which is almost half
of the fee for SMH. Is it likely that they will increase this charge in the near future or can I expect it to stay the same for some time. What is your long term outlook for the chip stocks? ( I should have asked this question before
purchasing) and is this a cyclical product?

Q: AngloGold offered to buy out Corvus Gold at $4 a share. In you opinion is it a fair price? Since then the management said will steady the offer but no more new come out. Are they still talking behind close door for a better price?

XBC keeps dropping is it worth to keep the stock or should looks else where?
Thanks, Alec

Q: Hi, what in particular do you think investors did not like about FDGE's recent results?
Is the sell off overdone in your opinion?
Is it wise to pick up an initial 1/3 position and fill to a full position over the next 6-9 months or would you wait this out for a couple more days/weeks.
Not the best scenario when a stocks price drops below or nears its IPO price.
Management kinda indicated a rosier picture in 2022 for what ever that is worth.

Cheers,
Steve

Q: Q2 report did not look stellar IMO, what are your thoughts. The acquisition is interesting, but seems like a bit of a reach and that they have given up some future profit with a Commission based sign-up for the Co-Ops that they purchased the company from. What do you think the largest concern is that is causing the fire sale today.
