Also are their similar ETFs?

Q: What is a good approach to evaluating risk for a stock investment? I can think of systemic risks, specific company risks, and historical drawdown price risks. Anything else? Is there a way to condense these into an overall risk estimate? Any articles or books on the subject you would recommend for DIY investors?

Q: I've taken a position in Celestica partly based on your reviews. In one of the recent questions about CLS you mentioned a desirable entry point, any guidance on a stop price?
Based on this chart i will set my stop limit just below the 200 SMA at $57.50

Seem reasonable for downside protection?
With the BOC lowering rates i think that is positive for small caps like CLS however i'm still nervous about a broader market decline.

Q: Hi Peter, I am 60 years old. What is your opinion on the 100 year minus my age rule to determine the percentage that should be in equities? In other words should I invest 40% in an equity portfolio and put the rest into a ladder GIC or similar. I have a good risk tolerance. Thanks for your time.

Q: Wondering what your take on the quarterly reports are for these two, with one going up and the other going down after hours. Really interested on your take of ZS since it seems to have finally come down in valuation. Is this a good buying opportunity for us bargain hunters? How does its valuation stack up now against CRWD, PANW, and FTNT?

Q: You recommended CELH as recently as yesterday (Sept 4), a day when it plunged more than 11% in the afternoon. Normally you don’t seem to favour stocks with very weak price action. Should investors keep making an exception for CELH? Is there a price level at which point you’d consider it too broken to buy?

Q: It seems possible that interest rates will be higher for longer, triggering flat or recessionary economy. How would you assess prospects for these 3 fintechs in this environment. Are there any that are vulnerable?

Q: I was having coffee with a friend of mine yesterday and he had mentioned these products which seem to use leverage 1 for 1 for example in stocks and bonds or stocks and futures. Can you give me a quick overview and your gut feeling on these type of ETF's, it looks like the history is extremely limited and I don't quite understand how these work.

Q: Hello 5i Team,

In an answer to a recent question about HESM, you stated:

"HESM is a US limited partnership, and has VERY onerous tax implications for Canadians..."

Is there a website that maintains an up-to-date list of US limited partnership stocks with additional tax implications for Canadian investors?

Thanks in advance for your always helpful advice!

Q: The PE for this stock currently is around 43 and analysts are forecasting 30.5%/yr. growth in earnings over each of the next 5 years. Everything I read suggests this mag 7 stock is poised to go up and do phenomenal. To grow EPS 30.5%/yr for each of the next 5 years seems extremely optimistic to start with but even if it does the PEG ratio is 1.41 which suggests over valuation. The other mag 7 stocks with the exception of NVDA have much lower EPS growth rates at 20% max and dropping from there. How can one rationalize buying this stock now. Thank you. John
