Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: It seems advisors claim that as the economy recovers 'cyclical' stock will do better: what does this mean--- which are the cyclicals and in which order do they 'rotate'? What is now hot and which will be next and how do experts determine which will come next so as to accumulate and wait for a 'breakout'

Could you please answer and comment. Thanks!

Q: Hi 5i,
You often point out that your investing philosophy is to buy into strength. I assume you mean that you buy stocks that have already performed well for some time. My question is as follows: what's the difference between buying into strength and "chasing heat" which a lot of commentators advise against doing? Thanks for the great work you do.

Q: Hi: Re: Symbol Question - Answer Symbol shown but the full name of the stock is not. I have addressed this issue before, and I notice that you were always putting the stock name in the answer. I now see that you are no longer doing that. I feel that others can also benefit from you showing the full name in the Answer.

Happy New Year.

Q: Dear 5i,

Quick question about the Model Portfolio: in the column where you show the Return % in the particular month the report is for, do you include a dividend payment in that if one was received in that month?

Thanks and great work!

Q: Hi Peter & team;
I submitted a question on Dec 22 with reference to shorts on bond funds and got a small part of it answered. The reason I am interested in shorts on the various bond funds is because Amber Kanwar from BNN stated on
Dec 18 that TLT has shorts of 119%. She stated that somehow the way the bond etfs are ,they are able to borrow more than 100% to short??. On the same date Chris Low from FTN Financial stated that in the next two months we will see the mother of all short coverings in bond funds. I would appreciate your help with the items in my question. I also asked a question about Retrocomm mid market reit and no answer. Thanks for your help and all the best in 2014.
