Q: 23 year old starting RRSP. Have made small initial cash contribution and now doing monthly pre-authorized cash contributions, Given long time horizon, small current balance and ongoing monthly contributions, I’m looking for a 100% growth-focussed equity ETF that I can have set up to auto-contribute to on a monthly basis and wonder what you might recommend.
Thanks.

Q: After environmental calamities in California and Texas I often think about the financial risk that infrastructure projects have from climate change. In California this seems to be a perennial risk that will return and is predictable, but Texas' cold snap was a good warning that they can happen anywhere.
I also seem to recall that utilities had to swallow some poorly organized derivative risk during the 2008 financial crisis.
Finally: the Biden government appears quite aggressive with its intention to eliminate all GHG related power production.
My question is: for a business that operates with high leverage and large scale projects that are slow to change and long to pay off, and high sensitivity to climatic shock, are these risks reasonably accounted for in their current pricing; is diversification a suitable means of diluting risk (across the sector), and finally are there more US or international choices such as ETFs that you would recommend over a Canadian centric etf (appreciating that the Canadian companies are somewhat international)?
thank you,
Peter

Q: This US cannabis ETF, MSOS, has been performing poorly lately after a big run up. When I look at its portfolio, I see 58.15% cash and then something called "swap pay" items for several companies which are negative numbers such as -8.24%, etc.
What do those negative numbers mean and am I reading the cash % properly? What is going on with this ETF?
Thanks

Q: Hi 5i,
Just wanted to get your current thoughts on AT:CA (Acuity Ads).
I see that they have come down quite a bit from recents highs.
Any reason for this?
Would it be a buying opportunity at +/-$16, or wait for it to settle down a bit?
Also, if you could provide any information in the way of a short synopsis on the company that would be wonderful!!
Thanks.

Q: Hi folks,
I am looking at VIACOM - it's down over 50% since March 22nd - can you give me your opinion as to whether it would be a buy at the current price for a long term hold. Doesn't look like anything has really changed fundamentally with the company other than the hedge funds dumping their stocks.
Thanks

Q: On Mar 29th you answered Lindsey’s question
“Why are there companies in the model portfolios that are not rated? If you are recommending them why wouldn't you rate them? “
with
"Some other companies have been added for better sector and market cap diversification within the portfolios.”
This explains why they were added but not why 5i doesn’t rate them. Assuming that you have done some due diligence in making your choice to add these companies to the portfolio why not add those companies to your list of rated stocks?
5i prides itself on unbiased research. Besides the work that is done when selecting a stock for a portfolio, what else is involved in rating a stock?
