Investment Q&A

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

Q: Harry asked an interesting question about investing in US Tech stocks and wanted an ETF. I did a 52-week comparison of the performance of the 4 mentioned Tech stocks with the ZQQ ETF. If my rough calculations are correct, one would have almost doubled their money with these 4 stocks compared to the putting the same money in ZQQ over the last 52 weeks. Past performance is no indication of the future, but I would like your thoughts on buying these 4 now versus the ETF. In my situation I would put 5% of my investments in these four and currently well diversified and a good chuck of fixed income (>30%). For me maybe okay (your thoughts please) but in general would this also apply to most investors. Please respond to my situation and the general situation if you can please. Thanks so much. Dan C.

Q: I am going to trim my KXS back to 6%. With the proceeds I am considering one of the following:
Add to my CAE; add to my GSY; add to my ATD.B or initiate a position in DSG.
How would you rank these choices? Any and all thoughts will be appreciated. ram

Q: My tech exposure consists of MSFT,ENGH and ET. All have been held for many years and have become multi-baggers as well as producing growing divys. Do you see any holes in my tech coverage? Would you trim and add a new position or leave as is? Thanks Ron

Q: I've made some money on MSFT and currently its hit a high water mark, been treading water and today has dropped a bit. What do you think about selling MSFT and using those proceeds to buy DOCU and CRWD. Obviously risk is tremendously greater with those two than MSFT, and both are still losing money but their rev. growth is big, debt is less than cash for DOCU and almost nothing for CRWD sitting on $1 bil in cash. Thinking momentum and growth continue, with price appreciation greater than MSFT, while biting my nails along the way.
Thanks.

Q: Hi team,

What do you think of UFO for space play? It think the space should do well in the coming years with the USA now depending on homemade solutions. If you agree, is there any company or ETF you would suggestion in place of this UFO?

P.S: I, as one of your early members, must say that I wish you would have allowed questions on US stocks much earlier. And I am relieved to hear that you are going to continue with this added value service. I keep coming to this site indeed because I want to learn from your answering questions about the US stocks. It is not a secret that Canadian Markets have hugely under-performed their US counterparts.

Thanks for all you do for us!
