Investment Q&A

Q: hi, again I am asking for your top picks for income, I have a full position in BNS. if I hold your picks I may top up, if you think this is a good time to buy and why thx Jack.

Q: Hi 5I,
With a zero weight I am considering a possible two of the three mentioned companies as new income generating positions.
Two part question - (1) which are most suitable for more stable income (& why) and (2) considering the interest rate environment, would this be less than ideal timing to start new these as new positions

Thanks again
Mike

Q: It looks like RHT is using purchasing power by volume order to secure hardware which seems to be in short supply. I expect that they wiil make a little margin on the units but the real benefit is that the units will no doubt have RHT software installed which is recurring revenue. I see no real issue here. Am I missing something?

Q: Please u take on latest results & going forward.Appreciate u usual great services & views

Q: Good Morning Peter, Ryan, and Team,
I am looking to add one oil producer and one natural gas producer
to a conservative, income producing portfolio. I am looking for sustainable dividend growth over time. Which names would fit this criteria ??? Thank you. DL

Q: Can you please name a few of your favorite conservative, dividend-paying stocks?

Many thanks.

Q: This week I will reduce my current energy portfolio (@12%), bringing it down to two holdings to a total sector percentage of 5%. I need a second suggestion for the Energy portion, considering RRX, though with a tendency to PKI.

With the available funds, I’d like to get into the Tech and Healthcare sectors, selecting one new holding each. I have earmarked RHT and PHO for Tech, with CSU and SHOP as secondary options. For Healthcare, I’m eyeing GUD, COV and PLI.

This approach is geared towards a slightly balanced but still aggressive enough growth portfolio.
Please advise on your top picks for each sector. Many thanks in advance.

Cheers

Q: After the acquisition of Lane Quinn, are you expecting a uptick in near term growth and does it enhance longterm prospects?

Q: whats your take on reliq announcing the purchase of 27,000 blood pressure units,that they will resell to their customers.
the whole thing sounds fishy. i mean they say their customers had trouble buying them, so why would reliq be able to buy them. strange stuff. dave

Q: Hi 5i team. After being badly "burned" by healthcare companies over the last couple years (phm, vrx, cxr) I had sworn off investing in healthcare/ drug companies as every one I was invested in seemed to turn out to be giant scams. But, that being said, I find myself liking the idea of the technology behind RHT and I am considering investing in this recent pullback. On the flip side I used to feel the same about patient home monitoring (and we all know how that turned out). I guess I am looking for reassurance that RHT is a MUCH different home monitoring company than phm was, with competent management that aren't scamsters like Dalsin was, and describe the level of potential RHT has for future growth. I like the "tech" and "AI" component of this technology the best as I believe these will continue to be the highest sector of world growth going forward.

Also, in regards to the upcoming quarter; is there a negative setiment out there in regards to the release that you are aware of? Would a person be better off to buy the dip now, or wait until after the release? Thanks

Q: We have a 3.5% weighting in JNJ. We like it for its exposure to the USD, its steady dividend income, its blue-chip size and very modest share price growth. However I am concerned about the potential losses arising from their "baby-powder" lawsuit. We have owned the stock for years. I am thinking about switching out around 2% weighting into PFE. Its dividend appears to be higher and its chart seems to be better.
Reading over 5i responses on JNJ you seem fairly sanguine about JNJ so I hesitate to sell. We are retired but not currently spending our USD dividends - they are kept for foreign travel.
I must say I like XBI's chart. However its dividend is much lower so potentially we would need to sell stock if we needed USD. XBI should lower our risk profile as it is an ETF which is probably a smart move.
My questions are...
1) Would you recommend selling all our part of our JNJ or just do nothing?
2) Would you recommend purchasing PFE or XBI or both?
Please deduct as many credits as you feel my question(s) justify.
Thank you for your assistance.
Jim

Q: With REAL stock continuing to get hammered what effect will this have on AIF or is this priced in and being in a similar industry might AIF be next or get hit? THX

Q: RHT.V is a great example is a stock that is being pushed down 15% before earnings on no news.
Is this a possible short attack? If so can you please explain the technicals behind a short attack such as this.

Q: Are you concerned about the valuation of RHT considering its forward looking from a mgmt team which has never succeeded in the past. Also I was told they have spent a enormous amount in IR and they placed cheap paper below $0.20 with various groups. In addition Texas is one of the worst states for Medicare fraud and when I google their clients not much come up (other than Golden B founder involved in fraud).

Q: Is RHT value at current price or it's still expensive, thanks

Q: Good morning guy:

Q: "How would one make a small investment in the providers of stablecoin or basecoin ?
Thanks for your hard work."

In addition to your great advice I would avoid all coins except Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, and Ethereum at this time. Many are scams. Many are digital tokens and not cryptographically secure. I would not consider buying any until you have some understanding of how they work. Warren Buffet does not buy what he does not understand, but that does not mean Bitcoin/Blockchain cannot be understood. Those wanting to acquire a technical understanding should consider the book 'Mastering Bitcoin: Programming the Open Blockchain' by Andreas Antonopoulos.

Q: Can you compare potential of TECK vs TV going forward? I am considering taking the loss on TV, which I can use for tax purposes, and using the proceeds to buy TECK.
