Investment Q&A

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

Q: I am looking to increase my energy exposure, and I am debating between a more senior producer, such as Suncor, or looking for greater torque to oil prices, such as Tamarack or Athabasca. I was wondering about your thoughts on the matter, including whether you feel that energy producers have more runway, or if the energy sector has reached something closer to full value. This would be a smaller position, no more than 2% of portfolio, so I can afford to take on some risk for the opportunity for growth. Thanks again, and I look forward to reading your thoughts.

Q: Hi
Thank you for your insights. It has been very helpful grow my portfolio so that is balanced and diversified. I have about $10000 that I would like to invest in mostly growth stocks with a 10-year horizon. Its possible I will have additional funds to add in the next couple of years. I would like to keep this separate from my larger portfolio. My risk profile is medium to aggressive for these stocks. Are there others I should be interested in as well? I am looking to purchase 4 stocks. What would your suggestion be based on growth and risk/reward?

Q: Hi 5i. From BAM.A's website, they show Managed assets of over $6ooB.

Of this they show:
Real Estate : $210B, Infrastructure : $95B, Renewables : $59B, Oaktree Inv.: $159B, Priv. Equity : $73B.

Instead of allocating our entire holdings in BAM.A to the Financial Sector,
Would it be reasonable for us to allocate :

Real Estate : 35%, Industrial (Infrastructure) : 16%, Energy : 10%, Financial : 39% ?

Thanks for your advice. T.

Q: Dear 5i,
Comparing MOAT vs VOO it appears that in general MOAT outperforms even thought
MER is considerably higher. It looks like they both distribute dividends but, no return of capital. I am interested in purchasing for my NonReg account and don't want to update my ACB if there is a ROC or phantom distribution. Should I buy one of these or both? Do US ETF's ever have phantom distributions like some Canadian ETF's and mutual funds? I'm afraid I could not find any information on this matter.

thanks
