Q: Hi, CRWD will be added to S&P 500 effective June 24, markets open. Stock has already been in a strong momentum, post earnings and was up 5% to an All time High of $368, in after market trading, Friday, following the announcement.. We have already been considering adding to our small 1% position in this cyber-security name. Is it too late ?

Considering CRWD stock momentum and proposed weight in S&P 500 Index, based on your past experience with Index Addition situations, do you foresee an immediate rush of buyers pushing the price higher, but the price only settling down, as end of 2 weeks window approaches and trading lower thereafter ?

How would you approach it from a Portfolio Manager's perspective, if you wanted to increase your exposure to this security ? Will you add now or wait for the stock to settle, after the Index addition ? Or, split the purchases ?

Also, would there be a price level/range, you will look at, before pulling the trigger ?

Thank You

Q: Dear 5i team.

I would like to look at a small investment in defence/war munitions sector companys or ETF. Can you suggest 3-5 names that cater to "War" efforts that can be considered a DIY ETF? As well, which ETF(s) would you consider for this exercise. Ideally one with the lowest BA %.
Finally, are these Co's trading at resonable valuations, or has this ship sailed, so to speak?

Many thanks for your help.

Q: Hello. I'm a bit concerned about the payout ratios of BCE and Telus. Telus has an even higher payout ratio than BCE, and I'm wondering what their prospects look like for the next few years. Will they be able to keep up these high dividends? Is there a chance they might cut their dividends? My question is, should we reduce our exposure to these telecom stocks and reinvest in other areas? Your insight would be really helpful. Thank you!
