Q: Peter and team
I unfortunately jumped (like many others) part way down the crash in March.
I simply cannot believe another correction is not coming.
What do you recommend as a safe place to park cash and earn at least a bit of interest other than a GIC while waiting.
Also I know you don't have a crystal ball, but what are your thoughts on a correction ahead.
Thanks
Phil

Q: Hi guys,

I was wondering if you could give a few added thoughts on Veeva, prior to their report on Tuesday. You have said that it is one of your favourite US growth stories, and it has undergone a large 2020 rally already, and some recent range bound movement.
Not knowing more that what I have read here and from reviewing charting, it looks like they have gone through periods of surges and plateaus over the years.
Would you expect some manner of growth announcements or earnings surprise on Tuesday that creates a new growth driver, or are you more of the opinion that there will be some developments in the weeks or months ahead?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks for all you do

Q: This morning 5I answered a question from George on REM { Which doesn't appear to be in your drop down list when asking this question } .... 5I pointed out the heavy weighting in NLY and AGNC. As a former NLY shareholder just for giggles I took a look at it. The first thing I saw was the massive 16.35% dividend and my brain asked how the yield could be higher than the sum of it's parts. Then looking further I saw that REM had fallen in price where it would have yielded almost half as much as it does now pre Covid.....This is where I need 5I to " unravel " my logic. It appears to me that Mr. Market is punishing diversification over the make up of it's parts..... In other words by buying the ETF one is getting a discount on it's holdings.... { REM 16.35% , NLY 11.89%, AGNC 10.2% , didn't check the rest of the holdings } I'm pretty sure there is something wrong with my logic thus the question.... Is the ETF discounted to it's parts ? And if so, by how much ?
