Q: What is your overall opinion on ICE Intercontinental Exchange. What do you think of their acquisition of Black Knight. Do you think there will be a higher demand to trade commodities and won't this benefit ICE? Do you have a rough percentage breakdown of where they they make the most of their revenues from? Thanks
Q: Good morning! I'd appreciate your thoughts on this logistics/freight forwarder, as well as Kuehne + Nagel, as potential three- year holds for both income and growth. Thank you as always!
Q: If you had a bit of money today to buy a small basket of 5 stocks you consider to have the most potential for growth in the next four to five years, what would you buy?
Q: Hello 5i,
I am looking for income and found these two. I am up with BAC and PRMW and would sell these and buy ICHR and IEP. I know there is no comparison but would be fine with the change for income. I am 76 with a good pension and a balanced portfolio value investor in all sectors. I also have covered call ETF's ZWC, ZWE, ZWH, ZWT, HDIV AND HYLD. The other forty-two stocks are blue chip equities in all 11 sectors with ten ETF's doing well with ZAG to balance it all. I am not using the principal and reinvesting excess dividends and using some for travel. Is there a downside to selling BAC and PRMW and buying ICHR and IEP or is that too excessive with the covered call ETF's now in play? Please take as many credits as needed.

Could I have your current thoughts on CGNX please ?
Are increasing costs and inventory an issue (considering recent price action) or more likely just general market malaise / sell on news ?
Would adding to an existing holding seem premature at this stage ?
Q: This mornings earnings look like a disaster and the stock is down heavily and their margins are out of whack - but the management commentary indicates things are just dandy. What gives? Lumpy order recognition, shipments ........ ?? Appreciate your observations and outlook.
Q: Terrible markets with NQ in bear space. NVTA,PATH, PLTR,BL are at/near new lows. Reportedly PLTR reports before open,May 9. All in Investment a/c.,except BL in Tfsa. Thinking of selling at a loss before they get worse,which maybe offset by potential capital gain of other stocks at a later date. Appreciate u short view on each. Txs for u usual great views & services.
I was looking forward to the US part of the answer to Aleem’s recent question.
Specifically, can I get your two top US picks for each of consumer cyclical, consumer defensive and industrials based on current valuation and long-term growth.
Q: Is there an ETF would would recommend for global shoreline protection? I'm looking for something that's specifically focused on this type of activity, rather than something that's a basket of large engineering construction companies?
Q: For the companies listed, do you believe any are at risk of fully going out of business with respect to the current market and recent/anticipated stock pricing effecting their ability to continue to operate? thanks!
Q: In one of your responses you stated "But, there are good signs, such as 20% of biotech companies in the US now trading below cash levels". If this is net cash (i.e. after debt), wouldn't these be great buying opportunities, assuming the companies are solid. They would eventually trade at their cash position (at minimum, I would have to believe). If my thesis is correct, can you name a few of these companies. I think this may be pretty much a sure thing?
