Q: BMY:

1 What is your current assessment of BMY?

2. Its share price has dropped in the last year. Does it have reasonable prospects to increase from here?

3. It has a somewhat attractive dividend, around 4.75%. Is that sustainable? Does it have any history of dividend increases?

4. Can you describe its pipeline potential?

Many thanks for your excellent service.

Q: I currently own XHC.

I see that VHT has a lot lower MER. Does it make sense to make a switch?
I assume VHT is more North America while XHC is global?

Also have about 4% in ABBV in an Registered Account with a 52% return. (thank your;)
Would it make sense to cut this down to 2% and add LLY?

LLY has had quite a run the last couple of years and that can be scary. Does LLY have a good runway?

Thanks.

Q: I am looking for new healthcare stocks after selling Lantheus and InMode in the last 6 months. I currently own WELL. Quite a few have had a good run up lately so not sure if they are good buys at current valuations. What are recommendations? US or CAD, doesn’t matter. Should I buy an ETF instead?
Thank you in advance

Q: I currently hold all these stocks, with the exception of elf. I came up with the thanks in large part to 5i as these are names that have come up in various Q&As. If you had to pick only 10 to hold long term (which for me is 1 year), what would be your ten? The 10 should be those that are the best expected performs regardless of diversification or risk. Just the top 10. Alternately., would you suggest holding them all but with different weightings and if so please comment on a suggested weighting.

My plan was to hold 10 with 10% in each but I’m not married to that idea.

Thank you kindly.

Q: Hi All,
I'm helping my common law wife setup a high six figure investment portfolio. She is 57 and attempting to retire as am I (64). She is hoping to be able to make an income from this portfolio and some of that monthly if possible. We will be setting her up a new Cash and TFSA account with Qtrade. Would you also set up an RRSP at this point? I'm thinking she should put some in Gics, High Interest savings ETFs (at least for now, and Dividend stocks (Banks, Pipelines, Utilities etc.) I would love all the advice you could give in this format? Possible list of some ideas as well as what accounts would work best for these holdings for tax purposes? Thank you in advance!

Q: Hi 5i,
In an otherwise balanced portfolio, I'm looking for some ideas for my TFSA.
Current holdings are KXS, LULU, HPS AND ATS.

I'm open to adding to the above names but was wondering if you
could you please recommend 10 Canadian and 10 US stocks that you feel would work well in a TFSA at this time in the market.

Thanks!!

Q: I sold LNTH 30 days ago to harvest the tax loss. I am looking for one more name to fill my healthcare allotment. I currently own ABBV, ISRG, WELL and SIS. Which do you like best between LNTH, DXCM and INMD, which are three names that you have been highlighting over the past several months? I am looking for potentially higher growth and am willing to take on the additional risk. Any other name(s) would certainly be welcome.

Appreciate your insight.

Q: I currently hold XHC to give me some global health care exposure. It is ~ a whole position for me and is currently down 4.5%. My other Healthcare stocks are Well and Abbvie.
Do you have some other healthcare names that are solid but growing. With or without dividend.

Outside of Canada to get USA or World exposure.

Or would you stick with XHC?

Thanks.
