Investment Q&A

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

Q: Good morning.

I would be interested in your thoughts about CTLT which was last addressed in Q&A in Dec 2019. It seems to be in a sweet space of the logistics and delivery of COVID-19 vaccines; it has contracts with JNJ and AZN; and Argus has a $100 price target on it. Worthwhile to purchase as a compliment to the big pharma companies themselves or are there better options in the same space?

As others have said, thank you for the amazing work 5i does!

Q: Hello 5i,
I hold TRI as a Canadian Equity. If I journal it over to my USD account, would this serve to change my Asset Allocation for purposes of portfolio re-balancing - i.e. reduce my Canadian Equity and increase my U.S. Equity accordingly? Held within an RRSP for what it's worth.
If so, I can only assume this would apply to all dual-listed equities?
P.A. shows I need to increase my U.S. equity by about 6.70% so am looking at options.
Also, what are your thoughts on QQQ versus any individual component in the FAANG category? I am underweight Tech in general.
Thanks as always!!
Cheers,
Mike

Q: After watching Tesla from the sidelines (sadly) for too long, I would like to start an investment in the EV "sector". I am thinking about a basket approach and would appreciate your opinion on a few that I know of and any others that you may suggest.
Workhorse, WKHS; Arcimoto, FUV (does not pop up on your site), Nio inc, NIO; Nikola Motors, NKLA; Kandi Technologies, KNDI; and of course, Tesla, TSLA. I realize that some if not all of these may be speculative and require a long time frame but I do believe that there is an EV revolution coming and I would like to be part of it as both an investor and a consumer. Do any of them have serious red flags?
Is there a very specific ETF that might be an easier way to go? Any thoughts on whether Rivian might go public any time soon? Should GM be on the list perhaps?
As always, thanks so much for your valued opinions regarding this and everyone else's enquiries!

Q: Hello 5i Team,
Could you please tell me the names of the companies that are developing a vaccine against Covid 19. Is there an ETF that tracks them?
Thanks,

Q: ICad was added to the russel 2000 today yet dropped nearly 5%. Aren’t new additions to an index supposed to trigger a buy?
The company has been on a downtrend over last month. Any news to account for this? Do you still like? I understand it is very high risk.

Q: I've held Facebook for 3 years and it has been a rollercoaster. It's a company that everyone loves to hate, and I am thinking of taking my profits and investing elsewhere. What would be a replacement stock in a similar area?

Q: I hold these 2 US stocks in a well diversified CAN/US portfolio. They have not performed as well as many of their peers and I am wondering if they are "best of breed" and worth holding or if there are better opportunities for growth elsewhere. Could you please comment on the future prospects of these 2 stocks and if its best to keep them or redeploy the funds elsewhere. If redeploy, what would you recommend as replacements in the US, sector allocation aside with a focus on growth
