I am looking for your recommendations on good dividend paying stocks. Stocks which have come under pressure due to market conditions. Stocks that are low risk and do not have high debt. I am mostly interest in income stocks but would also like a stock that would give me some capital gains. I have listed these and would appreciate rating these. Please also provide me with any other tickers you feel would fit my needs here which I may not have thought about.

Thank you.

Q: What are your thoughts on US bank prices. Specifictly Citigroup it seems very cheap at . .6 times book value. If it wasn't for the war at what price would you see the US banks today. lower, higher or much higher than todays prices. My average price is 55 dollars. Sell hold or buy today.

Q: Hello 5i Team,

With the continued decline of stocks related to the semi-conductor industry (e.g. materials, fabrication, testing), is now a good time to buy for a 3+ year hold? Or should I wait for prices to settle?

Either way, could you please recommend 3 stocks for me to consider (not including NVDA, which I already own) and include a brief comment explaining each choice.

Thanks!

Q: For US financials you have been positive (recommended) both MS and JPM in responses to recent questions. Based on long term safety, valuation and growth potential which of these companies would you buy today? Are they sufficiently different to split the position between them?

Q: Do you think the selling in US banks is overdone? They have really taken a big hit lately. I would think with rising rates, they would be going up instead of dropping. Is this because of the war in Ukraine and their interests in Russia, or are there other factors at play here?

Which one is your favourite right now? I don't own any of them, but am thinking of starting a position.
