Q: Hi 5i,
I know you haven’t been big fans of WBA due to their debt load. They had a decent earnings beat today, boosted by Covid vaccinations. They took a majority interest in Village MD to open more health clinics attached to their drugstores. They are also considering exiting the sale of tobacco products.
What are your thoughts on WBA these days with this renewed health focus?
Thanks again.

Q: Peter, if with the reopening there is a shift in interest from growth into value stocks which Cdn/US stocks are best positioned on the value side ? In the US would you include Berkshire on the value side due to it sweighting in the Financials etc ? Would you agree with the strategy to shift from growth to value ? Thank you.

Q: Appreciate your best advice regarding selling half of my large position of Visa and purchasing Walgreen's in my cash account. Anticipating Walgreen's will be very involved in providing vaccinations. Or better to stay with a large concentration of Visa with the economic recovery (hopefully) in USA. What is Walgreen's dividend? Thanks for your valuable input/advice as always.

Q: WBA: this one is driving me crazy - I have held for a long time. Last 4 Q beat except for one previous to the April report. I keep thinking I should add to my position. You would think pharmacy would be doing well during this panic crisis? I know people were worries about Amazon; but, quite frankly, it has not panned out. Any analysis you have would be appreciated. Maybe, I should sell and buy technology - already own IGM Etf - had for 3 years.

Seeking Alpha mentioned an expert (I didn't catch his name) predicting that the S& P 500 will hit 2300 before recovering. Your opinion on that? Thanks for being around during this crisis.

Q: Hi Everyone at 5i! I am in the process of reducing the number of holdings in my US portfolio . I own several related to healthcare. I just recently sold off my JNJ at a profit. I am under water on CAH and WBA. I propose to sell CAH and WBA at a capital loss to offset my gain on JNJ. I intend to keep MDT. Does this seem reasonable to you?. Cheers, Tamara

Q: What are you're thoughts on WBA's earnings. Given the recent selloff would you still hold it for the long term or sell. I do not mind volatility. If it is a sell what US stock would you replace it with for growth. Thanks Chris
