Q: Hello Team,

I have $17000 in a USD TFSA, and i am looking for some income ideas? I need US funds once in a while, i would prefer stocks rather than ETF'S. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Stephen

Q: HHC announced today they have hired a company to explore strategic options, including a possible sale of HHC (surprising) . I love the assets here. It popped 42% today, although off of lows. I am holding on, thinking of selling some covered calls out of the money, or possibly selling some of my shares outright. I'd really appreciate your opinion on what this company is worth., before making any decision.

Q: Hello,
I was wondering if there are one or two diversified ETF's that cover all sectors and all geographies. Could these ETF's replace a well diversified portfolio of 30 different ETF's which cover the same/similar sectors and geographies. This would simply the maintenance of my portfolio. I would also appreciate your opinion on the effectiveness of such ETF's if they exist.

Q: The CEO/founder has applied to put all of his 52% ownership of the company up for sale. I understand insiders selling a part of their shares, but I've never come across selling all of them. My first thought is some company disaster, but I imagine, in that scenario, an insider would feed them slowly into the market to avoid suspicion. Your opinion please.

Q: Hi there,

Given the general long term trend of better managing our waste, i have been looking at this company to add to my us portfolio. I already own Waste Management which has been a very steady eddy over several years but understand it can be economically sensitive. What do you think of CVA and does it have the same economically sensitivity.

Thanks

Q: AGN has received a $188.24/s stock+cash offer from ABBV, yet (pre-market) its shares aren't breaking above $173. In this sort of situation, isn't it more typical for the share price to overshoot the offer (given the chance of another bid)? Or is the market doubtful that any deal will be completed?

Q: Hi 5i,
I have some USD set aside to purchase Pfizer (PFE:US) and have a window of up until about Aug.5th give or take, having missed the latest dividend. So, I am in no real hurry. My question is: should I just proceed and purchase now or wait to see if there is any kind of pull-back presenting a better entry point between now and August? I see it has continued to grind higher over the past while.
Your thoughts would be appreciated.
Thanks!!
Cheers,
Mike

Q: Hi there, I had asked a question earlier and you had suggested TEAM as an alternative to SLACK. After doing some searches in the Q&A section it seems like AYX and TEAM are very favourable. Would you be comfortable taking a small position in both names at current prices? Also, are these 2 names your current favourite US growth names? Thanks!
