Investment Q&A

Q: Hi there,

Do you think AMGN is a good buy right now for future growth and income? What are the pros and cons?

Ok thank you!

Q: Good Morning;

I am looking for two ETF (preferred) recommendations that as a stand along investment product would include first, holdings representing a well rounded Growth portfolio (for a TFSA) and second, holdings reflecting a well structured Balanced portfolio for an FHSA. My preference for these products is because there is not enough money in either to create that portfolio of stocks and bonds, and I do not want to be trying to pick a solitary stock "winner". The holders of these portfolios do not have the time to learn investing at present, so this approach seems "easiest".

Thanks very much

Q: I currently hold Life and HHL ETFs for their dividends.

How would you compare HHIS to these 2 ETFs? Hhis has a yearly of +20%, payable monthly . Does HHIS return capital as part of their monthly payment? Are those payments taxable as interest only?

If I am comfortable holding Life and HHL, should be comfortable holding HHIS?

Q: Good afternoon! I am a newbie to this site and am so excited to be part of the 5I community! My parents have been enjoying 5I for many years and are so thankful for the portfolio advice and great stock recommendations! I have now setup my portfolio and ran into some issues with the portfolio analysis. The P/E for some holdings seem inflated eg QQQI is 65. How is P/E calculated? And long-term expected return of current portfolio?

Thanks! Kevin

Q: Hi Team,

Can I get your analysis on this company and if you think it will continue to be a long term compounder?

Thanks

Q: Hi team,

What are your thoughts on GMIN ? Seems to have good momentum recently with the gold price going up. How risky is it for a 5-10yrs holding period?

Thanks

Q: I hold all these tech stocks as part of a well diversified portfolio with weightings below. Tech stocks are 25% weight in my overall portfolio. The issue I'm having is determining how many to hold in this sector and what weight to allocate each. All new names that I see on my potential watchlist with high growth seem to be all tech names as well (CRWV, CRCL, SRAD, GENI, RDDT, etc..) but I'm hesitant adding more tech if my holdings are already high quality unless one of them is dragging its feet. I'm trying to balance between holding long term compounders like CSU, LMN, TOI vs high growth shorter term names like NBIS, VRT, CLS that are benefitting from AI tailwinds which could turn quicker. Do I hold 5 companies at 5% or 10 companies at a mix between 2%-5%.

Do you see any overlap here in names that could be combined? If you had to rank these names based on growth and risk/reward, what would they be currently for the next 5-10 years? What is the high level process you go through when trying to determine between candidates for a sector? Thank you!

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
I have held this stock for several years and am up. It appears to be range bound and I am not sure if it has any more room to run. I am thinking that I should take the profit and be happy. I think there debt may be high and they are dependent on the overal economy. What do you think...any up side in sight? Thanks for your excellent service!
