Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hi Team,
With many high growth tech names down 50,60,70% over the last year, the question comes up …are these ever going to recover ? That being said , I think some will. Some will end up being the “buy” of the decade. And some probably not. My question is which 3 names would you bet on today to buy, which might end up being the “buy of the decade” in a few years from now? Thanks !

Q: As a diversifier an investment in farmland seems interesting. Looked at Acretrader but wondering if there are 3 or 4 ETFs Cdn or US that you would recommend to invest in this theme. Are there any individual stocks in this area that you like. Do you agree this could be a worthwhile piece of the investment puzzle for a longterm position. Thanks for your anticipated input.

Q: Hi,
Your outlook for this company in the rising interest scenario. Is rising rate will be headwind or tailwind for this company? Companies past financial figures are good form investors point of view. In last 10 years it is buying back shares (share count down 50%), increasing dividend (dividend increased to 400%), sales are rising (almost doubled). Can It be considered as a good investment? If not then can you suggest some good alternative?
Thanks

Q: I hold NVDA AMD and MDB in registered accounts and they are now down 47% - 18% - 39% respectively. As there is unfortunately no tax benefit to selling, should I continue to ride them out or bite the bullet and redeploy to recoup some of my losses within a 3 yr time frame. If redeploy is the answer, some suggestions please.

Thanks.

Q: I have held ULTA for some time and is up nicely. It hit a new yearly high on Tuesday, I am considering selling half and adding to AAPL/AMZN/GOOG/MSFT. I feel confident that when the market turns these 4 will do well. I am not so confident about ULTA. Could I please have your thoughts? Would you sell all/half/none? If you agree, in what order would you add to the others?

Q: Hello 5i,
Zim. once the darling of the stock reporting media now seems to turn out to be a goat.

1. Was it a "pump and dump" scheme or does it still have legs after this present mist clears?

2. Is there any news as to why it has dropped so much so quickly?

3. Should I just move on or leave it and collect the dividends until its resurrection?

Please take as many credits as needed.
thank you
Stanley

Q: To my knowledge cancer is showing no signs of going away and yet these companies and others in the field have been punished with the rest of the market. Can you please provide an attractive entry point for each and state which 1 or 2 would be your favourite and why? If you can add one additional name that you think has tremendous potential in this field I would be appreciative. If that requires a second credit go ahead and take it!

Q: I have recently redeemed some mutual funds that I have held for 20 to 30 years that will produce a significant capital gain for me in 2022. I have several stocks and an ETF that have been purchased in the past few years that are showing losses in the range of $5k to $15k. This includes TOI, U, SOXX, SQ, NVDA, MFI, MSFT, WSP and AMZN. Would you suggest selling these stocks to provide a capital loss that can be applied against my capital gain in 2022? It is my understanding that I will need to wait 30 days to repurchase shares to avoid the denial of the capital loss. If you would suggest selling these stocks and ETF, should I sell now or wait until the end of 2022? And if the stocks and ETF are sold to create a capital loss before the end of 2022, do you see some future in these investments and if so, which stocks would you suggest that I repurchase after 30 days? Thank you for your insights.

Q: Hi,
I own all these 3 and down so much on PINS and U that I was thinking of selling them and adding to my NVDA position. My thinking is that over the next 3 years NVDA has the most upside and is the most solid. Without getting personal would you think this is a smart move?
Thanks
