Investment Q&A

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

Q: What options would you consider, as a moderate risk-tolerant investor for maximum return on an unexpected $40K windfall? This would be for at least a 2-3 year period in a non-registered account. Interest-paying vehicles are not preferred. Please provide your preferred strategy, specific names, and reasons.

Thanks so much for the invaluable service provided by 5i.

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
AP is a small family owned steel company in Pittsburg and usually only trades a few thousand ...10-50 daily. Today they had traded 48,000 and at the bell 1.8 million went through. I am perplexed. Can you give me any idea about this...bad news, multiple sellers, institutional seller or just one large retail order. Any opinion would be helpful...I do not own the stock but have been following its down turn and have been considering buying at a good price. Thanks as always!

Q: What weight, if any, do you put on Warren Buffett, through Berkshire, increasing his position in a stock? As you well know, he has a strong reputation for finding value. In the 3rd Q, Buffett increased his holdings in PARA to $1.7B. What is your view of PARA here? I think you last had it as a sell but that was in a portfolio clean-up. What does Buffett see that others may not see?
Thanks

Q: Hello 5i
As a value investor, SYZ is sold with a loss. PepsiCo, bought a while ago has an increase by the same amount as the loss. The dividend is 2.6%. If I sell Pepsico what suggestions would there be to replace these that have a signficant dividend? I am a 77 year old value investor with a ten year time frame with stocks and 16 ETF's in all 11 sectors, 6 ETF's of which are covered call. Any suggestions as to this strategy would be appreciated. Please take as many credits as required.
Thank you,
Stanley
