Investment Q&A

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

Q: Cons Disc [CD] portfolio target is 9%; current holdings 1.5% ea AMZN, SHOP [technically IT, but now more similar to AMZN? if not, then only 3% allocated], and CMCSA. 5+ yrs growth goal. To add and/ or new buys?
1. e-commerce: AMZN, SHOP, others?
2. retail watch list [WList]: advise re LULU, NKE, SBUX, others?
3. TV/ connected WList: DIS, ROKU & TLRA [both IT, but ultimately tied to Consumer spending]
4. Or, XLY and/ or TDB 424 Fund [Entertainment & Communication holds some Cons Disc, but not 100%] or other.
This is a mix but would appreciate your advice with sector allocation.
Thx

Q: Hello, what do you think of Foot Locker (FL) right now? If you had to choose between Nike and Foot Locker as an investment in the US cyclical sector, which one would that be and why? Comment: I have tried to look up FL in the company profile section but just can't find it, there must be something I don't do correctly? Thanks, Gervais

Q: My apologies - I forgot to say that I was looking to invest in that thesis with US stocks. I'd like to invest in the thesis that low-mid level income earners are going to start having more income based on a resurgent economy, lower taxes, and a very tight labor market along with reduced immigration. Can you suggest 3-4 companies that would really benefit from this scenario?

Q: Hello,

What are your thoughts on Nike? I read their quarterly report and I personally believe that although they have an increase in competition from Adidas and Under Armour, that investor's are overly pessimistic. Nike is a great brand and if you look back long enough; have they not created tremendous amounts of share holder value?

Q: Hi 5i,

I know you generally don't research U.S. companies but I thought I would ask your opinion on Nike. I bought a small position last year for $59 and change. I have watched it continue to go down and really not be able to get above $54. Would you advise I just sell and cut my losses or should I wait things out?

I really appreciate your opinion. Thanks.

Q: Hi, Nike is near its 52 week low and has a pretty amazing historical chart, not to mention brand. From some research, it seems that growth in China is challenged, and futures are down a bit. Is that it, or am I missing something?

Is this an opportunity to initiate a full (3-5%) position?

Q: Hi Peter and team. Just heard the news this morning. Can you suggest a few good large cap stocks with good yields to pick up if there's a significant drop in price. Looking mostly for good yield, relatively safe and at least a bit of growth. Preferably Trading on New York Stock Exchange or as ADRs. Thank you. Tulio
