Q: Hi,
We’ve held the FINX on/off for many years. In the past it has served us well, I had unfortunate timing on out last purchase and we are down 35% (in registered account no tax benefit for loss). What’s your current opinion on the Fintech space going forward….. do you seeing it doing well over the next 3- 5 years?Any major concerns with averaging down on this one?
Thanks for all that you do!

Q: I am considering adding to my current position in ABBV.

The stock is down close to 18% since the last earnings report. I'm sure the whole Humira thing had been priced in all along, but as of the last report, has the company outlook really changed that much to justify the size of this pullback? Are you comfortable with adding at this point, or should one have patience? I think the debt continues to be reduced quarter by quarter, which should help.

Q: Further to my earlier question regarding covered calls, can you please suggest some higher volatility US names that would be suitable. Your 2015 CMS article advises the use of companies with no debt and excess cash that are more volatile than the market. I would imagine this points mostly to mega cap tech names, but some diversity in the list would be appreciated. Thank-you.

Q: This weekend’s WSJ quotes Sun Communities as saying that while there are 11.2mm RV-owning U.S. households, there are only 1.7 sewer/water/power hookups for them to park at. Do current North American demographics suggest a strong future for SUI? If so, is it the strongest option in the Snowbird/alternative residence space?

Q: I hold SNPS at a 2.01% weighting in the total portfolio. And in the US only portfolio, SNPS weighting is 5.04%. The other two individual portfolios are Income and Balance.  SNPS has risen quickly lately....and my reading is that it is related to AI as its "software automates the chip design process, enhancing design accuracy, productivity, and complexity in a full-flow end-to-end solution" But there is chatter that the current price, $449, is way above the fair value that might be as low as $310. Question for me....do I trim back or just ride this out??
What says 5iR??? Thanks for your insights..............Tom
