Q: Hi Peter, My question is about returns in the S&P during a four year Presidents term. On average what are the markets (ie S&P 500 ) return in year 1 vs year 2 vs year 3 vs year 4.

Q: Hi Team,

Can you please provide your thoughts on NTLA? I've held it for a few years through the ups and downs, and am thinking of now replacing it with something with more potential upside. I was thinking about TOI, but would like to hear if you have any other suggestions as well. My timeframe is 2-3 years.

Thanks

Q: Hi 5i Team - Could you name a few start-up companies that have good management and decent growth potential as well as some cash on hand to fund operations, research and development for at least the next year, hopefully more. These would likely be companies that have not yet attracted analyst coverage and are low on the radar screen of investors. Any sectors in the U.S. and Canada are fine and market cap is not a concern. I feel that LMN and TOI might fit this description but I already hold them and am looking for some new ideas. Thanks.

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan, and Team,

Portfolio Analytics indicates an overweight position in Utilities where the current holdings are BEP.UN, CPX, and FTS. Only CPX is showing a loss, and the other two have substantial gains. In what order would you sell part positions, in order to raise cash for Consumer Cyclical? This sector’s holdings include ATD, BYD, and CCL.B. In what order would you add to existing positions? Please suggest other Consumer Cyclical stocks to consider starting a position, if you feel it would further diversify our holdings in this sector. Thanks as always for the pertinent advice.
