Investment Q&A

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

Q: i have held this for about 5 years and it has basically done nothing despite all the promises from management for change/consolidation etc. Would you support continuing to hold or am i better switching to a better growth name. i am retired so i like a bit of income in addition to share price appreciation. i already own ABBV and MDT and do not want to add to these positions. i am better off in Merck or PFE?

Q: Hi guys - you've mentioned a few times that the market has shifted from growth to value recently. Assuming we can't time the market with any consistency over the long term, how could someone who is dollar cost averaging take advantage of theses rotations in the future from an ETF perspective? Would it make sense to buy VUG (growth) and VTV (value) and actively purchase more when one fund is considered "down"? Is there a strategic way to determine which fund you would allocate more dollars to with each monthly purchase? Thanks for the guidance.

Q: My question is regarding value metrics for CPX. I compared EV/Revenue for the above utilities and CPX is lowest at 4.66, followed by FTS at 5.96. FTS has the lowest P/B at 1.49; CPX is the next best at 2.00. As an income/value investor, is CPX a value diamond in the rough? I know it keeps missing estimates, but I would get a yield of about 5.5% while waiting for financial results to improve. Your comments very much appreciated.
Thanks!

Q: Is $60 M for three dispensaries in the Philadelphia area a good deal? What sort of revenue could TRUL generate from these dispensaries?

My ‘back of the envelope’ calculations:
o # of dispensaries at end of 2020: 75
o 11 added in the 4th quarter, so lets say ~64 dispensaries made full contributions for 2020 (I have not checked if there were earlier dispensary additions in 2020)
o 2020 total revenue was 521,533,000
o 521,533,000 / 64 = 8,148,953 average revenue / dispensary

So to pay $60M for 3 dispensaries seems a little rich.
I have no idea of the addressable market for these new dispensaries.

Thanks!

Q: Hi 5i,
Would you add to an existing position in any of these ? I know you generally frown upon averaging down but if you would in what order ?
Thanks again

Q: Hi 5i
I've been asleep at the wheel with Roku - looking for pullbacks and yet to start a position. What are your thoughts on it currently? Would you expect any further pullbacks, that is, do I stay patient or bite the bullet already! ?
I generally hold positions long term - sometimes too long to my detriment.
Thanks

Q: Hi 5i
In the content space would you expect Disney or Netflix to outperform the other ? I'm leaning towards DIS for the content + 'everything else' that DIS has to offer - or has it recovered sufficiently and should I reign in my expectations ?
Expecting a 2-4 year hold, longer if all goes well.

Thanks
Mike

Q: I would appreciate your updated outlook on PNP, and answers to the following 3 questions:
My understanding is that this company is gradually being taken private by the family holding company. Do you believe that to be the case? Also, what do you think the rationale was for the upcoming rights offering that PNP announced last week? As an existing shareholder with a 1% position, do you recommend that I exercise the rights once they are issued?
Thank you...Glenn

Q: Can I have your opinion of this plant base frozen food company please ?

There is a december investor presentation on their web site and they plan a pretty agressive expansion over the coming years.

This market (frozen food) is pretty crowded in my opinion and do you think they have a special product ? I know they are integrated vertically and have factories in Italy and California. Costco Wall Mart and Target are big clients for them.

Thanks !
