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

Q: Hi, Can you name a few companies say 3 Us and 3 canadian companies who have been prolific in creating value for their shareholders either by buying back shares/not increasing their share count while growing consistently. A small dividend if applicable but leaning more towards growth in earnings. Preferably with some sort of monopoly or advantage in their field. Thank you.

Q: We currently have 100 shares of Visa and believe the cc space is a strong area to invest in with the cashless trend in business, while we feel Visa and Mastercard are the dominant players we personally use our Amex card extensively and would like your opinion of adding axp to our portfolio or should we add to Visa.

Q: Can you assess the risk reward of buying these 2 cruise line stocks here - or would you advise waiting. NCL looks to cheaper; but has no dividend.

CCL has a 4.5% dividend ... (likely to be secure?) ..... which could justify be payed to wait for the eventual increase in share price.

Thank you for your help.

Q: Paypal looks to be making some very strategic moves from getting access to the Chinese Market, worldwide partnership with Unionpay and a strategic investment in Mercadolibre. I have not really felt a need to add them as a holding but with these moves they are shaping up to be a play on international markets such as LATAM and China without owing companies solely focused on those markets. How does it looking for a long term hold alongside MasterCard, Visa and Square. I like the payment space.

Q: Annaly seems to have produced some good results, based on market reaction, but I have difficulty understanding their financial statements. For me it's rather like peering through mud.
I've owned varying amounts of NLY for over 10 years and have recovered most of my capital as well as continuing to receive a fairly high yield.
Are you able to shine some light on it or would you need a team of accountants?

Q: Hi 5i team,

I like the big cap Consumer Discretionary names for growth, and with lower beta than the tech names I own. I think the U.S. consumer is still alive and well. There hasn’t been a question on TGT since it issued its earnings warning in mid-January, as SSS were slower than expected over the Xmas season. If I recall, TGT attributed it to softness in toys and electronics, which it brushed off as not being key categories. The stock sold off but is coming back, so I think that warning is now baked in for the Q4 results. Since then, we have the coronavirus and many factories in China are closed. I think TGT sources many products from China. There could be another warning coming from TGT for Q1 on inability to secure product. What do you think of TGT here?

Thanks again for the insight.
