Investment Q&A

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

Q: For a conservative investor with a 50/50 portfolio (seeking a 4% yield), what percentage of Fixed Income would you place in short and medium term US corporate Bonds? US PCE is stuck at 3%, while Canadian inflation is almost at target. My thesis is this presents a decent opportunity if there is any improvement in American inflation...while Canadian Bonds already have lower inflation priced in. Even if I'm wrong, does it still makes sense to have some US Bonds for diversification? Thanks as always.

Q: Hi,
Seems Anthropic is causing quite a few disruptions lately and today their COBOL tool has hit IBM and others. Do you see any reason to wait it out and hold if this could be used as a tax loss in a cash account? I am also concerned about yet another fairly large drop in the price on WSP. Is there any further news regarding it today? Unfortunately I hold that in a RSP account, so am not sure whether to sell or hold, and would welcome your thoughts on this as well. Many thanks for your continued good advice - it is always appreciated!

Q: Good Morning Team 5i & Everyone,

Do I have this right? The cybersecurity sector is selling off because of the fear that AI will eat their businesses? I’ve heard that Claude has the ability to scan databases for vulnerabilities and suggest targeted software patches for human review, allowing teams to find and fix issues that traditional tools miss. What I don’t understand is why Crowdstrike and the rest wouldn’t just use the same AI or some clone of Claude to make themselves even better at cybersecurity? Can you flush this topic out for me if you’re able to please? I’d like to understand the bear and bull case going forward.

Thank you very much & hope you have a nice weekend,

Sandra

If so, what would your current ranking be? Or if it's a better question, what would your ideal 5 stock portfolio be?
Replace with other industrial stocks as desired.

Would you agree that industrials look good going forward? And any preference to Can/USA focus for the sector right now?

Q: I'm a little upset with the Fact that Newmont, after such a year in gold, has decided to only increase its dividend by 1%.

I understand that they'll need the money to probably buy Barrick american asset.

What would you think of selling part of my NEM investment to buy Barrick.

Since NEM in on the US side of my porte-feuille, what would you think of replacing this investment by Royalgold?

Thank you

Q: Can you describe the growth potential of TER and whether you feel current prices are sustainable or I should wait for a pull back?

For other robotics and automation stocks and broader ETFs what would your suggestions be ? I am currently in ROBO how does it compare to the others?

Lastly, do you feel robotics and automation is one use case of AI where there is a strong business model right now? I can’t see why this sector will not increase exponentially
