Investment Q&A

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

Q: While questions on FOUR go back to its going public over 4 years ago, you recently seem to have become more bullish on the company. Is that because it has become profitable or are there other reasons? The payment space appears to be very competitive and I wonder what FOUR has that the others didn't or don't have. Finally, your data source lists it as a tech stock but in previous answers, you suggest it is a financial stock. Do you have strong feelings as to its classification?

Appreciate your insight.

Q: What is your view of the infrastructure sector going forward? What is your view of IFRA? Would Jacobs be a better way to get exposure to the sector, or is there another investment you would suggest? About IFRA, there is a reference to it trading on CBOE, I am not familiar with this, can you explain what that is about? Many thanks

Q: This is a follow up question to my previous question about using ETFs instead of stocks.

You mentioned that ZEM was “fine,“ whereas your comment on XEF is “solid,” XUU “we like it quite a lot,” and XIC is a “go-to.”

Do you have an alternative to ZEM that you would consider to be better? If so, please explain why.

Q: Hi Peter & team - I've seen you, and others, say there is still lots of money "parked on the sidelines". How do you know this? Where is it parked? And how do you know it will be deployed in the market? Thank you!

Q: I've noticed you do not have any covered call ETFs in your income portfolio. If not appropriate in your minds, are there any good situations for this type of investment, and if so, when? What are the PROs amd CONS? What are the better strategies or alternatives?

Q: Folks i'm assisting my daughter in deciding how to allocate some cash in the market around $50K. This is new to her so she is as expected very conservative at the moment but wants to garner better income than a savings account. Thses funds are in a TFSA. I was thinking maybe suggesting 30% in SPLT, 30% in CBIL, and the rest in ZLB,XEI/XIU. Wondering what your suggestion might be.
