Investment Q&A

Q: At what levels would you be an aggressive buyer of the SP500?

Q: As EMA moves up I am wondering if I should book profits and look to an alternate choice in the sector. I had the same thought on my CPX shares when they were in the mid $60s and failed to act leaving me down significantly on those now. I would hate to repeat the error. Should I be more confident in the staying power of EMA is, I guess, the crux of the question.

Q: Hi 5i:
My question is about ETF EQLI, an S&P equal weight ETF that also writes covered calls. This ETF trades on the TSX in CAD but tracks a US index. Would the income generated by this ETF, if held in a TFSA, face the clawback from the US government even though it trades in Canada?
Thanks,
Murray

Q: Hi team ,
What’s your take on the oil sector in Canada currently? Currently oil prices, sentiment is low for various known reasons. However , in this cycle would you consider the sector near bottom yet? And any potential catalysts on the horizon? With potential of new government possibly coming in by year end (conservatives ) , and a hopefully new wake up call for all of Canadian politicians and policy makers hopefully leaning towards a more self sustainable country and development of our resources and pipelines; would you consider this a opportune time to buy a quality oil stock? In specific I was looking at Wcp after its recent added drop after its acquisition. I am looking at a 8.7% dividend with possible upside potential if sentiment recovers . Would you buy this name today considering I have almost 0 sector exposure currently ? If not; a better name from today’s levels suggested?

Thanks ,
Shane

Q: With the tariff war and Trump creating so much uncertainty, how does an investor handle this? It seems the tough approach of Doug Ford will only anger Trump and create more problems for Canada. With new terrible headlines on a daily basis and market reacting with more selling, how does a long term investor, who needs income from investments rationalize staying in the market? What could turn this around and how deep of pullback do you think we could see and/or how long of a bear market? Thank you for your insight!

Q: Can you please rate these for growth, return and safety.

Q: I read with interest your answers to Alex and Robert this morning regarding SLVO and David Rosenberg's thoughts. I have a great deal of respect for Mr. Rosenberg . Does 5i feel that SLVO would roughly track the gold index ? I do not see any covered call gold equivalent ETF unless you know of one ? The closest I can find is AMAX which is gold miners ..... Having said all that which does 5i feel is the better choice to follow Mr Rosenbergs thesis ? SLVO or AMAX ? I do like the covered call component of both over a straight up Gold security like PHYS ..... Thanks for your terrific service .......
