Q: HI Gang

I have a happy problem....BNTX is growing exponentially. I sold some of my shares one month ago and cannot decide whether I should shave a few more off. My weighting is 2.85% again. (But I have 65 stocks - still trying to reduce this). If I were to own only 25 or so stocks my weighting would be over 8%. How should I think of proceeding?
Thank you and stay safe...we are hopefully closing in on the finish line.

Q: Further to my earlier question about ROC in a registered account, the last paragraph of your reply seems to suggest that there is some value of this payment in a registered account but I don't see it. The ROC simply reduces the base cost but this has no meaning in a registered account as it is not used when an equity is sold. ROC payments can be substantial and it is a shame to lose them.

Q: Good morning,
Q1. Is it reasonable to assume that ZEB ETF's total return would be the same as that of holding each of the individual bank stocks in the exact same proportion as in the ZEB ETF minus the MER (0.60%) + or - the tracking error?
Q2. Given, that the relatively high MER (0.60%) of holding ZEB, would it be better over the long run to simply own 2 or three of the best big banks and if so which two or three banks would you recommend buying and holding for ever.

Q: Recently PZD - the Invesco Cleantech ETF was changed to ERTH - the Invesco MSCI Sustainable Future ETF. PZD almost all Tech and Industrials whereas ERTH has a similar weighting in Industrials but only 13% tech and a big chunk in real estate. I bought PZD years as more of a growth ETF and it doesn't seem like ERTH can really fill it's shoes. Can you recommend another ETF similar to PZD? This would be a 6% weighting in my portfolio.

Thanks

Q: Can you comment on their earnings report yesterday? Did you listen to the call and if so was there anything of interest (good or bad) that came up?

I know weightings are personal, but if you were holding DOCU what kind of weighting would you be looking at.

Thanks so much for the fantastic service and recommendation of DOCU at the beginning of the pandemic!

Q: Hello… I didn’t see a response so I am resubmitting the question below just in case. Thank you for your help.

I read your report on Topicus. Thank you for putting this together. In the report you state Topicus trades at 10 times sales, however, in the peer analysis it states the price to sales is 3.73. Can you please help me understand the discrepancy or what my misunderstanding is?

Also, I very arbitrary question, but just looking for your opinion - at what price is the stock a generational opportunity and at what price is the stock a bargain?
