Q: Hello 5i,
Last week i asked a question regarding broad market etf's and you mentionned vun. I failed to specify that i was looking for unhedged versions. My research shows two funds that seem to correspond to vun. They are: vfinx and vfiax. Am i right in that? And if so, i imagine the difference between the two funds is that vfiax is the same fund but needs ten thousand dollars initiat purchase. Am i right in this?
Thanks

Q: What is your opinion on Abbot Labs? It has gone down steadily for the last year and I doubt whether it will do any recovering before the election - or even after whoever gets in. Yet it seems the analysts are giving it a positive rating. Thanks guys.

Q: In its most recent SEC filing, billionaire Carl Icahn’s Icahn Enterprises LP (NASDAQ: IEP) disclosed a 149 percent net short position in U.S. stocks. IEP has been declining since this position was taken yet in the last few days the market and the circumstances surrounding the market have been negative. I would anticipate that IEP should rise against this situation based on its rather substantial net short position but this doesn't seem to be the case. Do you see any reason why the shares of IEP are reacting in this manner?

Q: Are there any companies/organizations in the Artificial Intelligence sector that 5i believes are good long-term investment opportunities; perhaps focusing application to diagnostic medicine. (Not so interested in driver-less cars, but believe that there must be tremendous long-term plays for companies perfecting diagnostic tools, for example.)
Thanks for your excellent investment analysis.

Q: Sorry, I should have clarified in my previous question, that I was looking for a Dow etf on the U.S. exchange as I want to purchase it in usd. Can you recommend one?
Since I currently only own IWO i thought the Dow would add a bit more stability and income than an s and p etf. Is this a good strategy?

Q: David's Tea (dtea) What are your thoughts on this company to start a small position for a long term hold.
Q: A question related to portfolio weightings. I used to only have individual stock names and a fairly equal balance across various sectors. I just purchased an market ETF the other day (VUN) to get additional exposure and classified it as "other", but it didn't feel right when I noticed that the weighting of my other sectors went down.
As an example, if I had x% in a particular sector, but made a large contribution due to new cash into a market ETF, the original x% in that sector would now show up lower in my own calculations. How do you account for this? I don't want to be overleveraged in a particular sector by mistake.

Q: I am still researching the US for additional opportunities & would like your advise on the 5 companies as listed. I am aware of certain similarities between SAP & KXS with respect to their Cloud collectivity modules & firmly believe this will become the wave of the future for thousands of large & diversified corporations in the foreseeable future. Recognizing however your sometime reluctance to comment on US entities, I would nevertheless appreciate your comments & guidance. Thank you.
