Investment Q&A

Q: Hi Peter,

Please list 5-6 mining stocks (other than gold) for growth. I own TV and TECK.B at 2% weighting each. Medium to high risk, short and long term.

Thanks.

Q: Hi, could you look at the chart for MFI, especially since March 1, 2018? It's the oddest chart. The on balance volume has been going up while the share price has been going down. My understanding is that such a trend could mean shares are being accumulated, often by a fund. Such a divergence often leads to a pop in price. Indeed, that's what happened to MFI on April 12, where it went up 3%. Then on April 13 it went back down 3%. On April 16 it was again up 3%. And today, April 17, it is back down 3%. What do you make of these observations, if anything? Thank you.

Q: Why is a company printing lottery tickets so hot? What is making it so attractive? Is it worth investing in?

Q: In the past years, I trimmed my position in oil and gas to only 5% in each WCP and VET. I am wondering what your sentiment on the sector is going forward, and if I should add a third position, possibly RRX. Looking mainly for growth.

Q: I am underwater on both of these stocks. Gas prices are up, they both issue regular dividends but I don't see upward movement in the stock price. I have kept them because the dividend is regular (for now). Overall portfolio weightings aside, do you believe I should be adding to these or do you think there is still a downward trend in the sector.
Thanks
Jim

Q: Hello 5i Team,

Wondering if you can give me some direction in finding a watchlist/portfolio tracking tool that shows (near) real-time headlines of press releases and other related news (as it's published) in a column beside the list of stocks.
Globeinvestor used to be configured this way, but they have made many recent "improvements" to their tools. I can find new press releases, but I have to go into a menu for each individual stock. This is very onerous, as there are about 80 different stocks from several countries in my watch list. I have asked the Globe's Help Desk if changes will be made. They replied that other Gloveinvestor subscribers are also asking for this, but they can't say if/when changes will be made to add to or change the current configuration.

I asked for advice through the 5i Forum, and as such, set up a watchlist on Morningstar. However, I find many of the news items/press releases missing, or not published in a timely manner.

I know I am missing out on some important information that is affecting my potential trading decisions. Sometimes this works to my advantage (so that I don't make knee-jerk decisions), but for the most part, I would rather know what's happening with my stocks sooner than later.

Thanks very much,

Brad

Q: In what order would you rank these stocks which has the better growth profile? . Your opinion will be appreciated Thank You Claude

Q: Morning 5i
I know Amazon has caused some downward pressure on FDX and UPS of late but I'm thinking if Amazon gets into this business it will likely take years in developing the logistics and infrastructure meaning that FDX and UPS will have to be relied upon for at least several more years .As an essential service they're businesses should still thrive still with solid earnings . Both stocks seem to be doing ok recently as well .
Would you have any issues in investing in either of these two stocks at this time .
Thanks

Q: I own both of these at equal weight in a rrsp and would like to reduce my weighting in bonds which one would you suggest keeping or should I reduce exposure in both.

Q: Would you prefer a ETF like Robo over just one stock AMAT? If I was to buy Robo, would the US ETF be better than the Canadian ETF?
