Investment Q&A

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

Q: Photon Control (PHO) is up strongly today on stronger than normal volume. I couldn't find any specific statements from the company linked to this, but yesterday Lam Research, a semiconductor equipment maker that uses PHO's products, announced results that were well received by the market. Is this driving the sentiment about PHO?

Thanks to the 5i team for informative and balanced insight.

Q: I am doing a little cleanup of my losing positions. I have small "leftover" of BDI, HNL, AIM and PD which all seems to be dead money right now but I wonder if one of these companies could bounce back (BDI for exemple is trading at 0.3x book value) ?

Can you suggest a couple of good companies to replace these losers?

Thanks again for your good advice and use as many credits as needed!

Michel

Q: I have done so well with tech companies that they have grown to 29% of my portfolio. I expect I have some duplication and some are not as profitable, so I am hoping you can help me to reduce to about 20%. Many thanks for your excellent and thoughtful advice. Reading member questions is an essential part of my day.

Here is my list:
BABA
BOX
GPS
ISDR
KXS
NVDA
PHO
SHOP
SQ
TCEHY

Q: the question I keep asking my self is why do I buy recommendations. These three are your picks so bought but all have declined since purchase. I have no problem with volatility but what is the percentage decline that yo u should expect on these kind of stocks, down 12,10, and 15%. My limit is usually 18-20. so should I wait for my target or move on.

Q: I presently have no healthcare or tech holdings in either my RRSP, TFSA or cash. Am retired,like dividends, but can take some risk.

Looking at having 10% in each sector with HHL (50%),CSH.UN (25%),GUD(25%)in healthcare and TXF(50%),ABT(25%)PHO(25%) in tech.

What do you think of this approach and the individual holdings?

Where would you put each one ( RRSP,TFSA cash)?

Thanks Derek
