Q: You recently recommended LLY as a buy at $850/875. Today it is trading at $838. Any sense of why it has been dropping so much lately, and would you recommend a buy at current prices?

Q: Hi, US Small caps are finally showing some love, with IWM - Russell 2000, up more than 10%, in past 4 days, after trading sideways for over 2 years. Experts seem to be watching this move with great interest, due its significance, pointing to expanding breadth of the market beyond a handful of Technology mega cap stocks.

My question is about the Small cap sector in TSX, which still seems to be lagging its US peers, except some strength in the materials. Is this normal, historically? What could be the reasons for this divergence and do you see this gap narrowing, in the near term ?

Your perspective would be really helpful as many of us follow your advice and Model Portfolios. Small Caps are your expertise, without doubt and you ( Peter, Ryan and Team ) are regarded as one of the Best Portfolio Managers in US and Canadian stocks.

Thank You

Q: Hey folks, hope everyone is enjoying the summer season. I own basically an equal weighting of BN (4%), BAM (4%), BEP(4%) in our various accounts. I'd like to buy a 4% position in BIP. Now comes my question, should I be a lumper or splitter - that is, am I ok looking at these as 4% positions, or would I be better to look at this as 12% position moving to 16% wrt Brookfield products??

Q: Hello Peter & Team,

I know (looking at previous questions) 5i likes XEI as do I with the good dividend I continue to enjoy. But it has languished since Aug 2022 when I took up a position to the tune of (as of today) a tad over -8%. Considering market conditions since that time and the fact the Blackrock index is made up of some 50+ S&P/TSX composite index stock, shouldn't I be enjoying a little bit better performance on the capital gains side of things? My goal with this ETF was to enjoy the dividend and appreciate a 4 or 5% per year return or at least stay close to par. Is there something I'm missing? Are my expectations unreasonable? What is your interpretation of what drives this ETF?

Thanks for all you do

Q: your view on kei please

Q: If you believe there is a rotation happening in the market from mega caps and the direction of interest rates is lower (speculation US rate cute in september), what are your favorite CDN and US names (2-3 names each) that may outperform in that environment?

Q: Hi 5i,
I’m looking at ETF options to add trend/futures exposure to my portfolio. TFPN, MFUT and DBMF are three names that are frequently referenced. Can I ask your opinion on these three ETFs, and if there are other names you would short list?

Thank you in advance. Please feel free to deduct credits as needed.

Q: I have a small position purchased quite a while ago. Since purchasing it has been up and down, most of time was under water, now it is up about 30%. I am thinking of switching it to a better one with potentially more growth and stable. Could you please provide your comments?

Thanks,

Lin

Q: Hello 5i,
You recently mentioned HIND-T in a response.
On the surface, this would be ideal for my needs: increase U.S., increase Industrial, and increase dividend yield/income.
Conversely, it is very small (~23 m AUM?), trades very thinly, and is very, very new.
Given the above, how would you rate this equity as an investment for a retiree?
Any other caveats you would care to add?
Any similar, but better, alternatives that you would prefer?
Many thanks for your insights!
Cheers,
Mike
