Investment Q&A

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

Q: Good morning 5i, I see CAR hit the market at $45.50 and I am in at $47. My question is how likely is that to cap the price and for how long. I am sick of watching losers so I am inclined to sell and replace it with a reit/other with better short-term potential. We rely on income from our investment so be it interest or growth it is all the same. What would be your top picks right now with short-term capital recovery in mind. I am becoming increasingly negative on buy and hold. Damn that Black Swan...wish he would move on to another victim.
thanks for your input,
Bob

Q: I am writing to request clarification in your answer to Ray's question earlier today. My understanding is that you recommended selling GSY and replacing it with ATD. Did I understand this correctly? My understanding from your recent reports and Q&As is that you felt that GSY remained a very good pick. Can you please clarify.

Also, thank you so much for your service. You have received a number of questions recently about the market turbulence associated with GSY and your insights have been quite calming. It has been very useful to better understand the details about the (likely short sellers) report on Seeking Alpha.

Q: Hi,
I wish to help fight climate change via investing in low-carbon companies - (renewable energy sources, EVs, batteries, materials from recycled sources, straw bale construction, vegan foods, etc) and also stop investing in fossil fuels, animal agriculture, etc as much as possible. Could you easily adjust your portfolios to make this possible? Are there ETFs that I could invest in as an alternative? I currently use both your income and balanced portfolios.
Thanks,
Helen

Q: I would like to buy NFI, but have to sell something else to do it. After looking at all of my holdings, I think it should be CSU, or OTEX. I have other tech holdings, but want to hold on to those. I am about about even with the two tech stocks so there is no tax gain/loss. I realize it is changing sectors, but I like the dividend. Do you think there would be more growth in the future by replacing one of the above tech stocks with NFI? Thanks.

Q: God Morning
I would appreciate your thoughts on the 3rd qtr results of NWC. They look exceptionally good at first glance but income includes a $17million insurance settlement partly for business interruption. When that is reversed out and the comparative periods adjusted, how does the quarter look to you and what do you think of the company going forward?
Many thanks for your insight.
Ian
