Investment Q&A

Q: Hello 5i
Could please tell me the pros and cons of starting a position in PNC Financial today?
Obviously the sector is in a bit of turmoil currently but is this an opportunity also?
Thank you
Dave

Q: Please rank for growth in 2022. Thanks!

Q: The top ten positions in my equity portfolio represent 30% of the portfolio. Among these top ten are TD, BAM, BAC and JPM. The financial sector represents 27.5% of the equity portfolio and the 5i analysis suggests that this be reduced to 15%. I am a new 5i client and don’t disagree with the direction the model is suggesting. Other holdings in the financial sector are: BMO, BNS,CG,C,MFC,PYPL,PNC,RY,SLF,BX,X,V. This is a bit messy but adding to the sector in the spring seemed like and was a good idea but now we need to be more conventional. I may be very wrong but I don’t consider BAM and X as financial services, particularly BAM. Looking at the holdings, what would you unload to bring down the financial sector exposure? Obviously a tax filter will be needed at my end. The question for another day will be an ask for recommendations to increase the under-weighted sectors. Having fun with the model and more importantly find it useful.

Q: Although both stocks are in the financial area but certainly quite different.
Both are moving quite significantly with renewed interest in the sector. Would either one or both be suitable buys, even with their current increase?
Thank you, Team!

Q: What do you think of PNC as an investment today. You liked it a year ago, has anything changed?

Q: Your opinion is appreciated a) for PNC, and b) for SNC - is there any hope for this company?
Thanks, as always!
