Investment Q&A

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

Q: I recently added a few "commodity" stocks and they've recently had very strong runs...Would you be inclined to hold them or take some profits? None of them represent an oversized portion of my portfolio. I'm just thinking after such sizeable gains in a short term...they must be due for a pullback. What macroeconomic indicators would you use to identify a change in outlook?

Q: Hi,
I currently do not have a lot of exposure to the materials sector (my % is at 6% versus my target of 8%). Other than owning CCL, my only exposure is thru the broad based ETF's I own.
I would like your suggestion regarding what would be your top companies in this sector at present time (3 to 4). I am more of a growth at a reasonable price investor and prefer owning companies that either pay a dividend or are buying back shares.
Thanks for your help.

Q: Hi 5i
Sorry if you receive an unfinished question from me as my computer is doing some strange things. I have been looking at MX graph for last year and comparing to share buy backs. The latest increase in share price is coincident with March buybacks as occurred in September as well. Then the price seems to drop off in a bit of a decline. I see that institution selling seems to be in line with this as well. So I guess my question is, should I wait to buy until the share buyback declines.
Regards
Kathy
