Q: I am retired and invest in primarily blue chip, dividend paying stock. In my regular investment account I hold the following Canadian bank stocks, RY,BNS,TD.

Q: These once promising growth stocks have declined, more than others. Would you consider them in the 'hold' or 'sell' category? And in which order?
The market performance generally does appear to create more uncertainty even with good news on infrastructure funding etc., rotation alone might not be the only cause. What is your take?
Thank you, Team!

Q: 23 year old starting RRSP. Have made small initial cash contribution and now doing monthly pre-authorized cash contributions, Given long time horizon, small current balance and ongoing monthly contributions, I’m looking for a 100% growth-focussed equity ETF that I can have set up to auto-contribute to on a monthly basis and wonder what you might recommend.
Thanks.
Brian

Q: What do you think of NNO? What do you think of the fundamentals? Is it a buy yet? They seem to have a potentially good product.
Thanks John

Q: After environmental calamities in California and Texas I often think about the financial risk that infrastructure projects have from climate change. In California this seems to be a perennial risk that will return and is predictable, but Texas' cold snap was a good warning that they can happen anywhere.
I also seem to recall that utilities had to swallow some poorly organized derivative risk during the 2008 financial crisis.
Finally: the Biden government appears quite aggressive with its intention to eliminate all GHG related power production.
My question is: for a business that operates with high leverage and large scale projects that are slow to change and long to pay off, and high sensitivity to climatic shock, are these risks reasonably accounted for in their current pricing; is diversification a suitable means of diluting risk (across the sector), and finally are there more US or international choices such as ETFs that you would recommend over a Canadian centric etf (appreciating that the Canadian companies are somewhat international)?

thank you,
Peter

Q: This US cannabis ETF, MSOS, has been performing poorly lately after a big run up. When I look at its portfolio, I see 58.15% cash and then something called "swap pay" items for several companies which are negative numbers such as -8.24%, etc.
What do those negative numbers mean and am I reading the cash % properly? What is going on with this ETF?
Thanks

Q: I currently own TD, RY, BNS and BMO, BLK (US) and would like to keep 2 or 3 as 'core' holdings in the financial services sector, and would like to add a growth stock, either Goeasy or EQ bank or ? Which has the most potential, and which stock(s) could be replaced.

Q: Hi 5i,
Just wanted to get your current thoughts on AT:CA (Acuity Ads).
I see that they have come down quite a bit from recents highs.
Any reason for this?
Would it be a buying opportunity at +/-$16, or wait for it to settle down a bit?
Also, if you could provide any information in the way of a short synopsis on the company that would be wonderful!!
Thanks.
