Investment Q&A

Q: It keeps going down. Is it only market related? Would you add to existing position?

Thanks,
Milan

Q: Both GOOG and MSFT have broken the lows of June. Do you see a likelyhood for significant downside from here?? I had reduced holdings in both and am looking for a re-entry point. Thanks Jim

Q: What are your thoughts on buying Berkshire on the neo exchange at this time?

Q: Looking for a decent investment in this inflation environment. This REIT hit my radar. I think you at 5i approve of it. My concern is the very high PE (approx. 30) and P/Cash Flow. Not sure what the forward PE is, but I'm hearing that forward earning estimates in general will sooner or later be ratcheted down anyway as higher rates start negatively affecting the economy.

Is there a better metric putting a valuation on a REIT like LSI?

Q: How does Paylocity stack up in its space? How do you think this sector will do over the next 5 years?

Q: I regularly read the Q and A section. Several questions mention being down 50% or more on an investment. I too have had similar losses in the past on a couple of stocks. Aren't these losses a result of inadequate risk management? In order to avoid such big losses, can you suggest a selling strategy or point readers to a discussion of selling strategies?

In the past I have employed a stop-loss but isn't that akin to showing the market your hand? In other words, as soon as you enter a stop-loss price doesn't that price then become another data point for algorithms to hunt down?

Any advice/information you can offer regarding selling strategies to minimize losses would be appreciated. No rush to get this answered. Thank you as always for your expertise.

Q: Do you agree, Hydrogen Takes Off?

Plug Power (PLUG), Ballard Power (BLDP), Bloom Energy (BE).

Which has the most potential and rank the 3.

Would you recommend another?

Thank you.

Q: I own this security. What are your thoughts on Ford especially given yesterday's rather negative announcement from the company? Would you suggest holding on or selling. Thanks.

Q: I notice that Meta is back at the 2020 lows. Would this be an opportune time to begin to establish a position or would you have a better recommendation.

Thank you

Q: I understand that ~30% of ZWU dividend is ROC. Would you say this is the case across the board for all covered call ETFs? Am looking at XYLD with this spectacular dividend, and am tempted.
And GE- industrial sector, well diversified, (seemingly) well priced
What do you think?
Thanks Jerry

Q: Do you feel the market is throwing out pitches that look attractive at this time? If so, what are a few of the growth-oriented names in Canada and the U.S you would be swinging for?

Q: Good morning.

I don’t know much about REITS and there are a lot of choices. Looking out 5-10 years, what do you feel are the best areas to focus on and what would be 2 or 3 Canadian REITS you like best and which one would you choose for a long term hold and why?

If there is a US REIT you like or even prefer, please include.

Also, If there is a primer you could suggest or a previous blog post please link.

Thanks, M
