Q: Thomson Reuters via LSEG Stock Report Plus (on the iTrade platform) gives LLY-N an Average Score of 4 out of 10. From my perspective, this is a low score given the momentum in the stock price of LLY-N. Any insights about this conundrum, at least in my mind?.....As it makes me wonder about continuing to hold a small position in LLY-N.....Thanks......Tom

Q: Everyone, I have been investing since 1981 and during that time very few people are interested in talking about investments. My two adult children are the same. Any ideas how I can get people talking about investing money? Clayton

Q: Hi,

The scenario: I have 5 x $100K GICs in one self-directed account at a major bank. These GICs are issued by 5 different institutions ($100K ea.).

The question: if one of these institutions went to zero and its $100K GIC became worthless, would the $100K CDIC insurance apply to the loss?

In other words, in one account, does it still make sense, from a risk management perspective, to spread around purchases of GICs among different issuers (keeping each holding to $100K or less), recognizing only $100K of the $500K in total is insured?

Thank you, Michael

Q: Larry Berman stated that he has moved all of his personal stocks and bonds to private equity and private credit because the returns are much better. Can you comment on positive and negatives of Larry's strategies?
And should the average investor be considering this strategy?
And if so what would be some etf's that can be considered?

Thanks
Brian
