Investment Q&A

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

Q: We purchased ARCT at $105 US and it has dropped 50% due to underwhelming results.
It jumped 10% yesterday. Should we consider dollar cost averaging?
How would you rank the vaccine stocks in terms of growth?
Thanks for a great year.

Q: AstraZeneca has approval for its vaccine which apparently has easier storage and transportability than its competitors vaccines. Also will be cheaper and therefore more available to the third world.
Your thoughts please on this company as an investment; they are of course involved in many other pharmaceuticals than just vaccines.
Many thanks
Happy New Year

Q: I have these 4 stocks, purchased higher than they are trading now, is there any hope they will go back up or should I just sell at a loss and take the hit? I was wondering if they may go back up with good earnings?

Q: DIS: bought (300shs)in April @ $106.13 in my USD non-registered account: up to all time high $179.89 US - should I hold or sell as the PE is not supported by fundamentals - or, is this because of growth in streaming business and a hold? Theme parks are probably still closed. Crazy!! Very small part of total portfolios.

Q: Peter and Team:
I need some exposure to the healthcare sector and my choices are very limited in Canada, especially when Johnathon doesn't want to play in the Chess Game presently. What are your favourite US names, and where does ABBVIE fit in to the puzzle? When I am typing a question, does it time out after so many minutes?
Regards,
Ben.

Q: I own full positions (5%) in GOOG and AMZN.
Would you sell either or both to buy SHOP?
I'm not a huge fan of partial positions but would consider turning two into three if you recommended.
If the answer is both, what would the other full position be?
Thanks for the great service, Just gave a gift membership for Christmas.

Hi there,
I am in the process of exploring the cloud computing sector to build a position with new money starting in the new year in my tfsa.
I don't mind risk at all, but am interested in growth longer term. Appreciate your thoughts on the outlook of the sector as a whole over the next 3 to 5 years.
Thanks so much for again contributing to my stock literacy over the past year and best of the season to all of you. Stay safe!
