Q: I’ve been attempting to diversify into EEM countries. The etf space doesn’t excite me but can you tell me your impressions about VIV? Do you believe it is worth the volatility given the dividend, etc.? THANKS!

Q: Hi, I’ve read through the information on the company’s website. Wondering what are the implications of a 3 year closed fund with two one year extensions. Does this mean the fund will be closed or potentially closed after 3-5 years and funds returned to unit holders? If so, at what value? Would a closed fund of this nature typically be wound up after a set period or is this more of an option of the company? Thanks.

“Three-year closed end fund, with two one year extension options
Targeted annual pre-tax distribution yield of 10.5% per annum, paid monthly”

Q: Hello 5i,
Can provide and info on this company?
Thanks
Dave

Q: Hi 5i,

Thanks for the advise and I brought it at $9. Now is almost doubled within two weeks. Today is closed at $17.86 and it is the highest clue price since past 8-10 years.
What is your suggestion, do you think the momentum is go even further or time to sell all? In Bloomberg news today, "Chief Marketing Officer Mark Wilson on Jan. 20 sold more than $990,000 of BlackBerry stock, reducing his directly owned shares by nearly 60%. Chief Financial Officer Steve Rai also sold nearly $430,000 of the stock on the same day, liquidating all directly owned shares." is it a bad sign?

Q: I have $60,000 in an RDSP that I am transferring to a self directed account. At least $6000 of new money per year will be available for new investments. I have a 20 year investment horizon with a balanced to growth focus. Luckily I subscribed to 5i in September and have been closely following the Questions and Answers, your posts and updates, and company reports.

I will use the sector allocations you provided to Tom on Jan 6th for 2021. I need your guidance on how much of the portfolio to invest in the Canadian and US markets, and other geographic regions / countries. For the Canadian market I plan to invest in individual stocks. For the rest of the portfolio I will use ETFs.

Q: So my question is a general one and maybe kind of dumb since I'm far from an expert. But why is it that I wake up some mornings and the market is up 250 points - or down 250 points before it's even opened? I get that there's a limited number of people who can do 'pre-market' trading. And that this trading is very thin. This means a very few trades can have an outsized influence on the market. But how is it this can set the tone for the day, with almost everything being down or up 250 points at the start? This rarely reverses, so it seems like what people do in the daytime has less influence on the market than these nighttime or early morning traders. If there's some huge event overnight I could understand, but some mornings I wake up and gold is down, bitcoin is down, commodities and oil are down, and all the markets, from high flying tech to utilities are way down, for no understandable reason.

Q: hi folks

can i have your current update re: prospects, business outlook and dividend sustainability?

thx

Q: Good morning.
I am looking to buy one of the 4 listed. My distillation of reading your responses to questions is that you would recommend NVDA. Is this correct? Thanks.

Q: Hello 5i team,
WM has gone down 45% from its high in Sept. 2020 of $1.30 to $0.72 today. All the drilling results have been excellent, what is the reason for such a huge decline as gold is still at $1860? Secondly, does the 790 million shares outstanding have anything to do with the decline. I am losing faith in the stock. Thanks George

Q: I own ICLN but have been looking at the description for HCLN and think that they are different enough I could hold both if I really want to catch the clean energy wave. What do you think? And what do you think of HCLN realizing that it is brand new and small? Thanks!
