Investment Q&A

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

Q: Could I get your opinion of WPX. Followed this for a long time and have a difficult time understanding what is going on. Buying back a lot of shares and directors hold a lot of shares and Belling capital a big holding along with CBC and 5 individuals. Very big Chinese holdings.
Thanks your service is terrific

Q: Are there any companies/organizations in the Artificial Intelligence sector that 5i believes are good long-term investment opportunities; perhaps focusing application to diagnostic medicine. (Not so interested in driver-less cars, but believe that there must be tremendous long-term plays for companies perfecting diagnostic tools, for example.)
Thanks for your excellent investment analysis.

Q: I have made some good gains on XCS(24%) and XIC (10.5%) from the market runup from January. Thanks to your article about small caps stocks from last year. Now I am wondering if I should take the gains, wait for a sell off and buy in again. With most of my stocks I never time the market and its all buy and hold but with XCS and perhaps XIC I am considering taking profits. Or mayble I should just take profits from XCS..Note that the holdings are in a registerd account so tax is not an issue. Your opinion is most valued. cheers, Shyam

Q: In today's Globe there is a lot of doom and gloom news about Bonds, especially from Bill Gross, the bond Guru.
As (an almost) a senior, should I worry about my bond ETFs? I a well diversified in Bonds, Short/medium term, Corporate, US and International.
If I have to sell them now, where can I divert that money?!!
I have preferreds ETFs, dividend ETFs, REITs. Should I increase my % in these areas? Or take the risk and increase the equity portion of my portfolio?

Thanks in advance.

Q: A long time ago, long before 5i, I bought MMP.UN as a way of owning some gold exposure for insurance. I have held it far too long. Looking at it now, I see it has a high MER, mostly junior golds, and a bit of a dividend, much less than when I bought it. Would I be better off to have XGD for this portion of my portfolio? ZJG probably has all the same juniors as MMP.UN
Thanks. Until I joined 5i I never used to look at details like this
