Q: Hi 5i,

May I please have your current thoughts on EV makers other than Tesla (which I already own)?
Are companies such as Rivian, Lucid, BYD, Nio etc. (or any others you can suggest) worth investing in as a stock?
Multiple questions here, but if you could give a brief breakdown of the more viable companies and their investment merits (or not) that would be great.


Thanks!

Q: Good day,

Can I get your thoughts on these two companies? I hold them both, thinking in my food-lover, simplistic way that they are in a business that will always have demand. But as I read more about investing, other than brand-recognition, they really have no moat and I question whether they are good to hold long-term.

In general. I wonder if restaurants/fast food are an investable area? If so, how do these two rate? If keeping only one, which would you choose?

Thank you,

Q: Hi 5i.

Could you give five recommendations for 'hold forever' US stocks? I'm thinking the sort of companies you would never sell, and even pass the shares on through your estate, ideally.

Q: I’m significantly underweight in my international equity holdings, according to your portfolio analyzer. I’m down a lot on SE and I appreciate you’re not fans of “doubling down” but I can’t help but think with all of the arms of this business that the stock won’t be worth considerably more than it’s current price in the next few years. Any thoughts on its growth prospects?

Q: Hi 5i Team - What is your latest opinion on Delta Airlines. Is there still a substantial amount of debt and is it a concern. Do they have strong management. Is there still decent growth ahead. I think earnings are coming up soon - any thoughts on expectations. Delta's stock price has increased by a large margin year-to-date and I'm just wondering if it is still within a good price range for buying. Thanks.
