Q: I bought Fpi as a diversifier for my portfolio. and a belief in the potential for farmland values to increase. It has steadily dropped in price….down 20%. Now I am questioning my thesis.

Do you see this turning around and worth holding , or better to bite the bullet sell and look at something like LAND or NTR or ADM/ Mosaic .. I do own NTR and am down a bit but still like it.

Thanks for your thoughts on this.

Q: As a diversifier an investment in farmland seems interesting. Looked at Acretrader but wondering if there are 3 or 4 ETFs Cdn or US that you would recommend to invest in this theme. Are there any individual stocks in this area that you like. Do you agree this could be a worthwhile piece of the investment puzzle for a longterm position. Thanks for your anticipated input.

Q: I have never owned a REIT but started looking at a couple. In doing so I realized that I really don’t know what to evaluate in a REIT (beyond type of asset - land, commercial, residential, specialty) and things I normally see as red flags may not be here. Can you tell me a few of the most important fundamentals to look at when comparing REITS (negatives to watch out for specifically, and positive indicators). For example my initial concerns were steady increases on common shares outstanding (seems acceptable and typical of all REITS) and what debt levels are acceptable. If you could tag your favourite REITS today I would appreciate. I have only looked at LAND and IIPR so far.

Q: Hi 5i,
Farmland is an asset class that seems to be drawing greater interest for diversification. Do you follow the sector and have an opinion on companies like Farmland Partners or Gladstone Land?

Thank you!

Q: Hello Peter and team,

What is causing Topicus and Gladstone Land Corp to surge today (Friday April 8th) and Lithium Americas to decline when the recent news from USA was very positive on the metal. Thanks very much

Q: Hello Peter,
What do you think of Gladstone Land? Shopify and Nuvei are both experiencing downwards momentum. What upward signals would you use to add to these two stocks? Would it be 50 day moving averages or is there a price that would make sense showing upward movement? Thanks very much

Q: I've heard it said, invest in what you know and what I know for sure is we need food and water to survive. So I'm looking to purchase two stocks in my portfolio in the agricultural sector. I am looking for dividend and some growth. If that stock offers diversity and/or a technical play even better. But first and foremost, what these investments have to offer is something the world can't do without.
What would be your picks out of the above list and why?
