Investment Q&A

Q: Hello 5i, With the current share price for Canopy Growth do you think that Constellation Brands may takeover WEED and take it private?
Or some other company taking it private.

Q: I’m short on consumer defensive stocks and can’t help but to think that even during challenging financial times ahead, that alcohol sales will continue to do reasonably well. Would you think that SAM has strong potential as a long term hold? Thanks very much.

Q: I've had a decent run with WMT over the past few months. I'm considering a switch to Constellation. Thoughts please?

Q: Which consumer staple / defensive stocks would you recommend and why. (I already hold Alimentation-Couche Tard and will continue to hold this one.)

Also own Proctor & Gamble and OK to trade this one in an RRSP.
Really want something for 10 years and not to worry about ups and downs of market but happy to look at something of good value currently.
Please choose any of the above or another choice. Safety and sleep at night are priorities. Please Rank for me excluding ATD.

Thank you 5i.

Q: I’ve had this company for several years it’s return has been adequate, however I am wondering if my money might be better invested in something with more pzaas!

Also have AUDC the Israeli company which has only been borderline successful, would u suggest a better option please

Q: Would you recommend to buy Ko(coca cola) or a different beverage company?

Q: Is this a good entry point and would this be the best of this sector?

Q: Greetings 5i,

What do you think of these 2 companies? Which do you prefer long term and which do you think may possibly see a better move post Covid (shorter term) ? Would you recommend any other companies that may benefit from any enthusiastic return of summer BBQ parties, sports/entertainment events, gatherings, weddings, etc.

Cheers and Cheers!

Q: Could you please rank these consumer defensive stocks and why - STZ, DOL, ATD.B, MRU and PG.
Need to increase my US and International exposure, however considering selling STZ (in a RRSP)
What are you thoughts? Is there an ETF in this sector you favour with US /International exposure? Thank you

Q: My advisor has suggested I average down buy these two stocks PEP and K (underwater on both). I'm hesitant to proceed that way and would rather look at consumer discretionary ideas with more growth. What would you suggest? I consider myself an aggressive investor. Looking for a 2-3 year hold.

Thanks, as always for th great advise.

Dave

Q: Looking to add a bit of consumer staples to the portfolio within the US. Not entirely apples to apples but could you please indicate your preference to either one of these listed or a combination?

Q: Can you tell me your top three picks in the beer/spirits sector? Your reasoning would be appreciated as well.
Thank-you.

Q: I am looking for suggestions for 5 or more US stocks with reasonable momentum in consumer discretion and consumer defensive sectors. Would you please arrange best to last. Many thanks.

Q: Seasons Greetings 5i!!
About a year ago a member asked you for a sample "growthy" USA portfolio.
You responded with the above listed stocks which have returned about 35% YTD.
Would you make any changes today twelve months after you first recommended it?
Thanks for all you do for all your help! It is has honestly been life changing for us and truly appreciated!!
Regards
Dave

Q: Gentlemen,
I want to sell AMZN
Please suggest for one or two defensive stock (any sector except Tech, low or no dividend) ?
Thanks

Q: We have held STZ for some time, thinking that with the legalization of cannabis, this would be an attractive stock to hold. However, we have been very disappointed with the results. What action would be recommend at this point?

Q: Sorry !
My question was about SAM Boston Beer, not Starcore International Mines. I should have been more explicit.
Your views on Boston Beer would be appreciated, together as your best buy in the sector.
Have a good day,
Jacques
