Q: Hi 5i team.

Please give us your updated views on DKNG. In reviewing Q+A there has not been a thorough analysis of their technicals and fundamentals that I can see. Also, do you still like Flutter better as was stated in the past few questions?
What do they need to do to justify what appears to be still very lofty valuations even after steady declines this past year or so?
Is there an ETF that would make more sense to take out single co. risk?

Thanks for your guidance.

Q: Hi 5i
We don't have any Canadian tech companies but lots of AAPL, GOOGL and NVDA. With current pullback, SHOP and XIT are down a lot (70% and 40% off highs) but CSU only about 15%. Would you buy CSU or XIT?
Thanks,
Greg

Q: Peter,

Go on the assumption that we will be in for a period of slow and consistent interest rate increases. I am very interested in how a bond fund could possibly increase the NAV during this period. For every uptick in the rates every single holding, whether of a short or long duration loses value. Do you agree ? What could a fund manager possibly do during this period to actually increase the NAV? I guess I am interested in the tricks of the trade or is it simply grab the umbrella and hope the rain eventually stops.

Thank you

Paul

Q: What is your view on QYLD as a place to stash cash in the current market? Looking at the chart, although its unit value has dropped since inception, it seems to have held its value on a total return basis - would you agree? Any better recommendation?

Q: I have now smallish positions in these ETFs held in registered accounts. ARKG at a 40% profit ARKW at a 60% loss and ARKK at a 64% loss. Do you see these recovering in the next few months or would you sell now and look elsewhere?
Please deduct credits as required.
Many thanks.

Q: Can you comment on the investment merits of this ETF NANR

Q: Hello 5i
We're curious about FLX (formerly FLOT)

Held since 2018Dec it was up ~2.85% including Interest pmts at 2021Dec31
Since then it has further dropped and we are now down ~2.0% (including interest pmts)
Would appreciate your opinion whether this is due to the change in its
investment objective introduced in December, or is it more related to the market
scenario since then.

Would you recommend holding or exchange for some safer bond ETF ?
If the latter could you please provide a couple of examples

Thanks for your guidance.

Q: Have these ETF's in my portfolio for at least 5 years. With the current interest rates environment... keep or swap? If swap which one? What would be a better option?

Thanks for your great service
