Investment Q&A

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

Q: When the "take it private" chatter was happening I ended up with too large of a DND position which I have been (too) patient with as I understand that the macro economics involved are challenging and until that changes there is little to do but wait. But it is getting a little crazy at this point (even dead cats should bounce).

If I wanted to hedge my bet and sell some are there few other beat up names that you feel have a similar or better recovery potential?

Q: I am a retired income investor and I purchased this ETF several months ago for income and some potential growth. It is in a registered account. The payment is reasonable but I now realize that I don't fully understand how this will react to interest rate swings compared to either short or long-term bonds. Should I expect it to have a higher beta than longer-term or shorter-term bonds? Would it usually react fairly quickly to anticipated interest rates move or because there is an equity component does the state of the economy (aside from rates) impact its value, resulting in slower swings? Would you consider it riskier or "safer" than "straightforward" bonds?

Appreciate the insight.

Q: What would be your one pick of smci, shopify or bkng? I see these are all liked by you. I am looking to add one more growth name to my holdings and not not concerned about what sector. I am leaning towards smci which I have bought and sold in the past but have not held as it seems to have big ups and draw downs which makes me nervous. Thanks,

Jason

Q: There haven't been many questions on RA of late. Now yielding a mind boggling 18% . That a lot for a fund based on real assets ..... Something happened in late August that took a third of its' value off . I believe that was a dividend cut ? What was the reason behind the cut ? With 73% of the fund invested in fixed income I don't understand the volatility .....Please review the structure and its' holdings and give me a fresh perspective of what this fund holds and its' investment quality. And explain why such a structure pays such a high dividend ? And if the new dividend faces the likelihood of another cut ? ......... Thanks Garth ....
