With regards to Applied Materials (Amat) the 2 most recent questions on your website are from June and August of this year. I am wondering what your current thoughts are regarding this company with items such as Free Cash Flow, Earnings Growth, Debt, Cash Position, Management, P/E, it is overbought at this time etc.
In this sector, would you prefer another company such as Nvidia or any other companies that I should be looking into?
Q: The correction in this stock (RE: Toys R Us bankruptcy) is quite startling. The last conference call was optimistically projecting a recovery. This is a large, experienced manufacturer of many popular brands which lost 50% of its value in 4 months. Is this punishment justified and is it a good investment right now?

Q: Hi 5i team!
My question is about energy storage.
It's my understanding that the biggest draw back to alternative energy solution and electric vehicle is the capacity to store electricity in great amount within a smale space.
Very little has been done in the past 20 years in that field,
compared to many other technologies. Are there any small or big companies coming with new ideas on battery storage capacity ?
I already own HYG-T hydrogen corporation for many years now, and that stock has not done much for me .
The IBAT story looks interesting, but needs much more large scale capacity proof of its new technology about lithium extraction with brine separation.
Thanks,
Sylvain

Q: Kudos to your new website, it’s very user friendly and a good tool for the small DIY investor!
My inquiry is on a Canadian Healthcare ETF (HHL) which I find interesting in that it includes US companies such as Novartis, Stryker, Medtronic, Johnson & Johnson and Anthem in the top 10 holdings, indicated dividend is north of 8.00%!
Also, if one is to hold it in a TFSA would the dividends be subject to the 15% foreign withholding tax?
Thnx for your great service!!
