Q: Hi 5iR Team, Recently, I asked a question on Solar Technology stocks and the team gave me 4 names to follow up on: CSIQ, TSLA, FSLR, and SPWR. After doing some more research I would like to add to the list; SEDG and ENPH and drop SPWR and TSLA. OK, we now have 4 names; CSIQ, FSLR, SEDG, and ENPH. Could you rank order these names for me, perhaps with a few comments on why. Thanks very much team. Cheers, Chris

Q: Dear 5i,

Many stocks such as Google have a high purchase price per share such that one needs quite a lot of money up front to purchase a board lot of 100 shares. Are there any disadvantages for individual investors who wish to buy and sell odd board lots like 1 to 10 shares?

thanks for your opinion

Q: I am a long time subscriber and an avid reader of the Q&A. Even with all I have learned, I am still having a difficult time understanding how to invest the fixed income portion of my portfolio. I want fixed income to provide portfolio stability by protecting on the downside while offering the possibility of capital gains along with some income.

I am a buy and hold investor on the equity side and I am comfortable deciding when to sell a company. However, the fixed income side seems to demand a more active approach - or does it? For example, you have been suggesting that interest rates seem likely to decline in the coming months so that would favour long term bonds. But for stability, or as an offset in case I am wrong, should I also hold short term notes? Should my fixed income portion be split 1/3, 1/3, 1/3 among cash, short term and long term and just left at that or is it necessary to continually monitor and adjust these weightings? Or is there one fund that does all that already?

Appreciate your insight.

Q: I notice that you are getting questions about what to buy when the market settles and it seems people are expecting this to happen soon. But isn't this something that could take a year or two, as closing plants down,people not travelling and buying things will reduce earnings and put us into a recession?
