Investment Q&A

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

Q: JEPI did reasonably well vs. US markets in 2022 and YTD 2023. The fund is now beginning to see net outflows. Question: Are US-listed covered call ETFs going to do less well “going forward” -- say , in the period from now to end of year 2024. My rough calculations of JEPI’s returns including distributions *appear* to show JEPI did not outperform a general index like SPY.

What are the main signs to look for to help one decide that’s it’s time to sell. No, not market timing! One would simply like to *try* to leave before the exits get overcrowded.

Q: iTrade has notified me that I must apply for a TIN Number from USA if I trade PTB's or own them. Problem is I have no way of identifying if the stock is a PTP or not. The way I read it that would be all US stocks and the site they send me to (https://www.irs.gov/individuals/international-taxpayer-identificaion-numbers-tin) basically says you need to become a US citizen. I run 3 accounts in in USD, Cash, RIIF ant TFSA. Do I have to abandon US investing??

Q: Is there any particular reason for QCOM’s sudden momentum over the past few weeks. I didn’t think its business was specifically in the AI chips. Just wondering if it’s just rallying with the the general rise in the AI-related space. Thanks

Q: With US inflationary concerns (hopefully) receding and the Fed finally pausing on US interest rate hikes (again hopefully) I'm hopeful the US market strength will broaden from some of the mega cap names like NVDA down to more mid-cap opportunities. Are there any mid ($2.5-20bn market cap) names you like currently/would suggest? (US or Canadian)
