Q: Just a general question as to what your thoughts are on the tech sector right now. It's obviously been extremely hot. How do you see the sector fairing in the short term (1 year) with the potential of covid passing. Do you see any need to reposition part of the portfolio away from tech and move to some value areas such as banks and energy? The reason I ask about the short term is because I think tech is only going to get bigger in the long term (5,10,20 years)

Q: Hi Guys,

I'm starting to get interested in the energy sector for more of a long term hold. The sector has been crushed but I don't believe the world is going to abandon oil and gas any time soon. Looking for a producer that pays a dividend, so I can get a return while I wait. What companies would you guys suggest?

Q: I hold both WPM and MMX in my RRSP, and WPM is up 75% recently which has pushed Basic Material weighting too high. I was considering trimming WPM and reinvesting into Industrials sector or Energy to help increase their weighting in portfolio.

Do you see continued strong upside on WPM ?
What would you recommend for Growth industrial or Energy companies at this time?

Q: Hi 5iR Team, When I look at PINK's mgmt team, rarely have I seen a more experienced group of staff assembled at a company as small as PINK.
https://ir.perimetermed.com/company-information/management-team

The team has a ton of expertise in every area they need to cover and University degrees and post graduate degrees giving them an unparalleled industry depth. It just doesn't seem possible to me you could pull a team together of this extremely high caliber if you didn't have an absolutely amazing product. I have bought a small position based solely on this mgmt team.
I have been an investor for a long time so I hope 5iR you're not sitting back and having a good chuckle about my naivety!!! And if you are then I'm glad I added some humour to your day.
Would/could this be a small cap company 5iR might want to take a look at for their clients? How far off base am I??
Cheers and Thanks. Chris

Q: Hello 5i,

Our portfolio has 1% in each of CAR.UN, IIP.UN, and KMP.UN. Of the three IIP has seen a major correction. Is there a specific reason for the weakness in IIP compared to the other two? Would you be adding to the above positions now or wait until tax season is over?

Cheers,
Debbie and Jerry

Q: I own trade desk, roku, magnite and google (thank you all for great advice) that all popped due to a strong return to advertising. This coincided with the election results and it made me wonder if some of the pop would be a result of massive ad spending from the Republicans and Democrats? If so, would the end of that $ flow affect earnings in following quarters or is it minor or non-existent in the recent advertisement boost to these companies? Thanks as always. Brian
