Q: hello 5i:
In the health care sector, we own ABBV, MRK and WELL. I'm not impressed with the future growth profile for ABBV. Would a change to either AMGN or UNH make sense here? Why or why not?
thanks

Q: Can you comment on ABBV latest quarterly report from last week. What did you like? Anything that you did not like. How is the debt position? Was there anything of particular interest to note from the call (either good or bad)? Do you still see it as a hold for the long term?

Q: At a business university event in Miami on the beach with Jim Kramer as the speaker entertaining questions from business students (held on Feb 3), 2 of many stocks they had done their homework on were ABNB and PTON and Kramer agreed with them and so I bought ABNB the following Monday. They do not look as good as these students thought they were. I have looked at ABNB from a previous question on 5i, but that was over a month ago. Do you still like ABNB. I have not noticed anything on PTON lately. What are your thoughts? Your thoughts are appreciated as always.

Q: I get confused when you rated slf over ifc for a 5 year hold, I agree it has a higher dividend, but you say slf will have better growth. Is not return on investment the growth that i should be measuring. ifc has blown slf out of the park in the last 10 years, not even close and they are still doing it right now.

Q: Why are renewable energy stocks like the three names above performed so poorly in the last year or two? Isn't all governments are promoting renewable energies and these stocks should flourish and not sink?
