Q: There has been a lot of discussion in the financial press, including articles you quoted, on how value will overtake momentum strategies. However, when I check the holdings of US momentum ETFs, such as IVE, most of these holdings are juggernauts, some of whom have done very well. What am I missing in this interpretation of value stocks?
APPLE INC 9.24%
JPMORGAN CHASE & CO 3.38%
AT&T INC 2.35%
BANK OF AMERICA CORP 2.26%
UNITEDHEALTH GROUP INC 1.98%
CHEVRON CORP 1.91%
BERKSHIRE HATHAWAY INC CLASS B 1.84%
WELLS FARGO 1.76%
WALMART INC 1.41%
CITIGROUP INC 1.37%

Q: Dear 5i,

XUU has a reported MER of 0.07% and consists of 4 underlying US ETF holdings.
Is an investor paying two layers of MER's when owning XUU?
Vanguard has a competitive ETF called VUN which has a surprising higher MER
of 0.16%. Which ETF would you recommend and why?

thanks

Q: Hi,
Where do you see fair value for Xpel? Ive been holding since just under $5 so its been very good in only a few months. I took enough profits around $12 to remove my initial investment, so Im on house money now. I just dont want to watch it drop the way PHO, and NVDA did from their highs where I held on for too long.

Thanks

Q: What do you think of Siyata's quarter? Things seem to be improving but there is still negative ebita but what looks like enough cash on the balance sheet to keep things going until they hopefully get traction. No large sales for the current quarter have been announced to date so that is concerning (one large sale was announced on Sept 30, was it squeezed in to make the last quarter look better??) Your thoughts on this company are appreciated.

Q: For several years I have owned Saputo stock. Since 2016 the share price has essentially been flat. Throughout the developed world I believe that on a per capita basis, milk consumption is declining, while cheese consumption is increasing. As a rule I prefer investments where there are built-in growth drivers and am questioning if this is in fact, no longer the case for Saputo. I have reviewed their annual report but cannot find revenue split between milk and cheese. Do you know what % of their revenue is split between the 2? Am interested in your thoughts as to whether or not there are positive or negative growth drivers for the products that Saputo sells.
