Q: For Canadians to hold a physical gold or silver ETF rather than a product that uses derivatives type ETF that has more risk, would you recommend PSLV, CEF or PHYS. Do you feel these track the spot prices well. I am looking right now and today silver spot on bloomberg is up 1.60% but PSLV on Toronto is up only 0.60% and the currency difference does not explain the difference as PSLV in US$ is up only 0.60% as well. That seems alot that is pushing over to a NAV premium discount.

Q: Good evening,
Wondering what your perspective is about the chance of the U.S. and Canada adopting a negative interest rate policy? What do you think the likelihood would be on a percentage basis?
Could you please list 5-6 companies in both the U.S.A and Canada that investors should consider in order to benefit. Thanks for your response!

Q: I'm trying to understand the complicated US Health Care system! Are HUM and UNH competitors? From a stock purchase perspective, would you be buyers of either/both these companies? If not them, what are your favourite health care stocks in the US?
Thanks!

Q: Hi 5i team,
I follow a number of the stay-at-home stocks but question their valuations and wonder about their staying power. One that has been on my watchlist for awhile is CHGG. The stock price jumped recently after a very strong earnings report, so I may have missed the run. It is gathering analyst support for its on-line education platform for courses, tutoring and reference material for high school and college students. With a number of universities in Canada and the U.S. keeping campuses closed at least until the January semester, does CHGG have some staying power for its on-line educational services? What are your thoughts on CHGG?
Thanks again for the insight.
Dave

Q: Hi 5iTeam,
BField Renewable between late 2015 and early 2019 price wise didn't do much (the price actually dropped during this period of time). But starting in early 2019, its price started to climb and closed at record high in mid Feb 2020.
Would you please shed some lights on why BEP started to take off in early 2019 while having a negative return between 2015 and early 2019.
Cheers,

Q: I have a small position in OGI.T. Bought it two weeks ago (2.40) thinking it Is one of the better names in the sector and will be a survivor. It has had its time in the past where they would report a good quarter but with no consistency. What is you’re opinion on this company and the sector in general. I can wait on it for a few years but the sector as a whole looks like a dumpster fire and knowing there are a lot of other places to go with the money I’m wondering if it makes any sense to wait it out?
