Investment Q&A

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

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

Q: pCELH seems to be in a good sub-category of consumer discretionary focussed on fitness, weight loss, and wellness.

They seem to have a good advertising and social media strategy: https://www.brandcredential.com/post/unveiling-the-celsius-marketing-strategy

The recent distribution deal with Pepsi-Co should bring new growth opportunities, and all financial metrics look great.

I was really interested in this company until I heard the Celsius management team speak to investors on a recent investor call (Everecore ISI). They did not sound very mature or well prepared.

Putting that aside, would you see any problem to own both monster, and Celsius since they are going after different demographics? Is Celsius the Lululemon of energy drinks - possibly minus the management team?

Q: Hi,
Comparing Telus, BCE and Rogers to AT&T, Verizon and T-Mobile over the last year, the US companies seem to be outperforming (granted this is a short timeframe and others in the US top five: Comcast and Charter Communications aren't doing well either).

I was wondering if you have any thoughts about why the top three in the US are doing so much better lately than the top three in Canada. (Take credits as needed please.)

Thank you, Michael
