Q: Hi, I was wondering if you could explain inflation and the impact on the economy and companies? Why the US is seeing inflation with the pandemic affecting businesses and jobs. I thought inflation meant growth in the economy. Is this current inflation numbers a blip or expected to last a few years? Do I follow the trend of sector rotation?
Thanks

Q: Hi 5i,
In reviewing my asset allocations, I am underweight in US and International. I am also light on Healthcare, Industrials, and Technology. Are there any companies (top 5) that jump out at you as growth based names that could help with this in terms of a 'two-birds-one-stone' approach?
I have a 10+ year timeline and a high risk tolerance.
Thanks in advance!

Q: With so much attention on EV’s, questions
related to charging stations - and battery suppliers are becoming more important.

I am looking for a basket of companies in which to invest that 5i believes can benefit from these developments.

As part of this theme I am wondering:
1. Where will people recharge their vehicles?
Will traditional gas stations - including companies like ATD.B and PKI - retrofit some of their gas pumps to charging stations?

2. Who will supply the volume of batteries that are expected to be required? As someone said the other day “ right now Tesla owns the “bakery” ....which gives it a huge competitive advantage over the other potential competitors.

Thanks for your help here.

Q: What would you suggest as a way to gain exposure to Electric Vehicles (EV’s)?

I have electric producers, as a common denominator, but wonder whether direct investment into auto or parts makers, and/or battery components (lithium/graphite) would be worthwhile.

Any suggestions for some small dabbles?

Q: In your reply to a question today about these three companies, you ended with "We would still prefer BIGC." I wonder if you perhaps meant "...still prefer SHOP?" If not, could you elaborate on BIGC's virtues?
