Q: I have been sitting on the sidelines in cash since the beginning of the year in both my registered accounts. I am retired and living comfortably on pensions. I thought that this weeks fed decision would be the time to reconsider deploying my cash. In the meantime Russia invaded Ukraine. I read the daily comments and I'm seeing mixed messages e.g. by on the decline, buy into the fear, time to begin making your money work, which have all suggested that I should have been slowly reinvesting over the last several weeks while the markets have continued to decline. However other comments have suggested waiting until markets calm down.
I would prefer the latter suggestion of waiting until things calm down. Other than peace in the Ukraine, what should I be looking out for.
And re the mixed messages what would you do in my situtation, other than I should have done nothing at the beginning of the year!
Thanks Peter.

Q: Hello,
I bought VEON as a purely speculative trade, with the intention of jumping out quickly on any decent gain. In your estimation is there anything fundamentally compelling about the stock that would suggest it is good for a long term hold? Or should my original plan hold? Thank-you.

Q: Thanks for the recent report on FSV. I am attracted to this name, but could never persuade myself to buy because of valuation. I am hopeful that one day I'll pull the trigger.

However, two risks that you mention - somewhat slim margins and low barriers to entry - make me hesitate a bit. In a prolonged bear-market / struggling economy, how would you see FSV perform compared to the competition? Would margins compress even more in that situation, and maybe risk losing major contracts? Or are their competitors weaker in that environment, and perhaps this would provide FSV with an advantage ? Any thoughts on this ?
