Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: AstraZeneca has approval for its vaccine which apparently has easier storage and transportability than its competitors vaccines. Also will be cheaper and therefore more available to the third world.
Your thoughts please on this company as an investment; they are of course involved in many other pharmaceuticals than just vaccines.
Many thanks
Happy New Year

Q: DIS: bought (300shs)in April @ $106.13 in my USD non-registered account: up to all time high $179.89 US - should I hold or sell as the PE is not supported by fundamentals - or, is this because of growth in streaming business and a hold? Theme parks are probably still closed. Crazy!! Very small part of total portfolios.

Q: Hello Peter,
I have an appropriate portfolio weight in Gold and Silver all of it leveraged through equity in producer companies big and small.
I want to do a seasonal trade in gold and cannot decide if it should be in physical metal, streaming company -WPM or producers leveraged to the price of the metal. What would you suggest? And if it is in gold producers, could you give me your top two suggestions.
Regards

Q: Peter and Team:
I need some exposure to the healthcare sector and my choices are very limited in Canada, especially when Johnathon doesn't want to play in the Chess Game presently. What are your favourite US names, and where does ABBVIE fit in to the puzzle? When I am typing a question, does it time out after so many minutes?
Regards,
Ben.

Q: Greetings All:
I bought 3K shares of U back when it was $8.00, and before the Big Meltdown. With the current popularity of SMR'S and green energy do you think that it is still too early for the Big U to make a comeback. Cigar Lake is shut down again. Your opinion. Would I be adding to a dead horse?
Thanks,
Ben.
