Q: I own some of the above preferred shares which reset on April 30/23. If Artis REIT does not call the preferred they reset at 5 year GOC (currently 3.454%) plus 3.93% or about 7.38% . Alternatively, I can covert to the floating rate of 90 day t-bills (currently 4.7%) plus 3.93%. or about 8.63%. I noticed not many preferred with the option to convert to floating rate are successful as they normally require a minimum number of shares . Is there a reason? Are t-bills rates more volatile than GOC rates? Any recommendations?

Q: What is the correct symbol to trade the Mercedes ADR in the US.
I get DMLRY when I search it in my service provider. I have also seen MBGYY and MGBAF but can’t trade those apparently. Also no recent trade history comes up. Why is that, can’t believe it’s not trading?
Thanks,
Len

Q: Hi 5i,

I have owned GOOS for the past 3yrs and I am questioning the company's prospects moving forward giving their performance and their dependence on the Chinese economy for growth.

Considering replacing GOOS with ATZ. Management seems to execute well and their track record of growth is impressive.

Would appreciate your thoughts.

Thank you in advance.

Q: It looks like LNTH’s fortunes changed fairly dramatically on or about Feb. 24th 2022. At the time there were two press releases; Feb. 23rd re: FDA approval of new manufacturing facility, and Feb. 24th Q4 and full year 2021 Financial Results. Do you know which precipitated the sharp rise in share price, or was it a combination of both? Just trying to figure out exactly what the market might have loved so much at the time, and if you think it is still proving out? Thank you for any insight you might have.

Q: Hello Peter,

I think the market either goes down some or takes a breather for a couple of weeks as it digests the probability of a higher peak interest rate. I would like your opinion please.
In that context I am thinking of taking some profit on some of my long term positions that have rebounded with the intention of raising cash and legging in again as the rebound happens. At the same time I like them a lot and do not want to keep chasing after I sell. Just want to manage my risk without options.
In the semiconductor space I have a full position in NVDA and QCOM and half positions in ON and AMD. How would you suggest I trim, or should I go along for a bumpy ride?
As regards CRWD, I am in a conundrum. I like the space and it is my only holding there. It is also expensive. How would you suggest I manage the risk from here- I do not trade options.
Looking forward to your suggestions.
Regards
Rajiv

Q: Hello 5i team.
As a retired income investor and I have been using ETFs pairings as for example ZDV / ZWC and SCHD/ ZWH.U for core equity exposure. I feel comfortable with a 50/50 ratio in order to maximize the yield. What are your thoughts on using covered call ETFs in a set and forget mode and the ratio that you would consider reasonable- why not 100% covered call. I hold some sector ETFs in a similar manner. Thanks Team.. gary
