Q: Dear 5i team.

I'm considering adding to my IHAK position but wanted to clear up something with you first.
In the archives, you mentioned that a combination of CRWD/NET/PANW would be an alternative to owning the ETFs IHAK or HACK. Are you still of this view? Do you still prefer IHAK to HACK?
Are the valuations of these holdings back to a level that reflects current realities?

Many thanks for your help.

Q: I generally look at a company's PE when assessing it. I think the S & P TSX composite is around 16 or so. But each sector within the composite has a different average PE. For example, the Financial sector is lower as is the energy sector, while technology is much higher. Is there a publication you are aware of the breaks down the PE’s for the various sectors within TSX or S&P?
Thank you.
Dave
