Q: I have been a holder of this ETF for many years. It has done well. However, I note the recent sell off is quite violent. There was a previous correction early fall last year and, of course, it fell with the market in spring 2020. But this recent selling is somewhat unsettling given that I cannot understand what may be the reason, if any, for it. I can’t see how interest rates or any of the plethora of current concerns could affect a water based etf so significantly.
Your advise as to your thoughts on the recent weakness would be much appreciated. I am thinking that if there is no apparent reason for the draw down, given the etf performance history, this may be a good time to add.
Thank you
Neil

Q: Hi,
Looking to add a small/mid-cap Cdn insurance company, either pure P&C or a specialty/reinsurer. (already own a lifeco and banks). A 3-4 year hold planned, in my TFSA.
Which do you feel has more promise for growth, and have you been hearing of any potential acquisitions for either?
DFY has no history as a public company, so it's not likely to make it into your Growth portfolio any time soon. TSU is already there.
THX.

Q: I'm looking to add a US Equity ETF that trades in Canada for a non-registered account with a 1-3 years hold. I like the profile of VTV (.04% MER, low volatility, holds large US value companies with $95 billion total assets, pays a high yield 2.15%). I'm unable to find anything that trades in Canadian dollars that fits that same profile. What would you suggest? Thanks

Q: Hello 5i,
Thank you for your excekkent service and advice.It appears that 5i does not have concerns about holding SDIV for revenue. As a 76 year value investor with emphasis on dividends, some growth (LSPD, LNF) for the next ten years are there any caveats to buying this at about $12.62? I realize that there is little growth with a history of returns much less than peers but with much higher dividends.

Q: Happy new year, 5i team,
I’ve read TOI Q&A back to around Sept ‘21. It seemed a sound strategy for me to buy them as my first tech stock, when priced at $140; just 40 shares. They’re non-registered so as to fit my goal of future tax advantages of capital gains if I ever needed to sell some. I was thinking that periodically I’d buy more to increase my tech weighting as well, overall in all accounts.
Reading your reply on price for ‘good, great and table pounding’, I am wondering if I totally misunderstood this stock. Did I overpay, or is the last 3-4 months drift down simply the manifestation of a higher risk stock. Your reply to a reader on your predictions on future P.E.s , TOI at 200x made me think that how this fairly new stock is doing is just what this kind does, and why a hold for 5+ yrs is best.
Do you have guidance if what I’ve written shows a big gap in my understanding please?
Would you buy more today?
Another note (please deduct credits)- when an investor is growing their portfolio and goes from say 5 stocks to 10 stocks, then to 20 stocks, the weights could be 20% each then drop to 10% each, then eventually get to the 5% max you advise, as more stocks are added. To me this seems logical and realistic, then I paused that maybe one must buy less of more stocks so one is closer to the 5% from the start of the journey rather than seeing that as the goal (say at the end of a 4-5yr period). Which strategy is better, does it not matter so long the investor eventually gets there, or, is this related to one’s risk profile?
Much appreciated as always :)
