Investment Q&A

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

Q: I am short US and international exposure. I currently have a small USD trading account with 5 US stocks representing 10% of my portfolio. I have another 10% in my Cdn account in XQQ and VMO for a total of 20% US exposure, mostly in non-registered accounts.

I am wondering about selling FTNT or URI to buy NVDA. Or I could exchange for more USD and just buy NVDA. I would like your thoughts on the future growth of FTNT or URI vs NVDA, or should I own all 3 and accept the $ exchange charge to get more US exposure?

Currently FTNT is up slightly in my account, and URI has a 50% capital gain.

Thanks for your advice.

Q: HON has done reasonably well and now seems fully valued. CFRA has a sell rating on it and RBC-DI lowered its its opinion on HON’s share price appreciation in November. Would you sell HON, and if yes, why please? Please ignore tax impact. If you would hold, why please? If you would sell, would you replace with another US industrial and if yes, which one(s), given the generally toppy valuations today.

Q: I have been lucky with MS which I accumulated during periods when many analysts seemed to misunderstand the poor thing. MS has become a full position. However when reviewing some analyses following MS’ recent results, opinions read as if they were written by bipolar CFAs. Views seem too divided for me to base a decision on. Is it time for me to trim MS —or best to ignore the noise and keep holding. Please do give your reasoning and I would appreciate very much your updating your response to my September 2, 2020 question on MS.

Q: PLX is an Israeli Bio co. not showing in your system.
I bought a small position 6 months ago as I am very interested in the diseases they are working to try to alleviate and potentially cure. It has gone up in price nicely this week after company update to shareholders.
Would appreciate your views. Is this a hold or worth buying more at this stage. John.
