“Hi! James, from a solvency point I understand how to evaluate a corporation, well within reason, but how do u evaluate a hedge fund such as BBOZ from a solvency point, what I mean is the possibility of it going ‘ belly up’ What is the maximum percentage u as an investor would be prepared to hedge in BBOZ?” – Keep up the good work, Tom A.
“Hi James. Thanks for your view on WPL. I decided to take profits and sold at the high during last week. I am considering Buying QBE again as the SP is falling back towards previous lows. The Supreme Court has ruled in support of the UK Court Finding today, which increases risk and also increases the Re-Insurance Amount to be factored into the Accounts. QBE claim to have anticipated this ruling and included provisions in their Forecast. So theoretically this bad news has been factored in to the SP. Question: Does your analysis support QBE‘s claim they have mitigated the impact of this decision? As QBE’s Foreign Income from its US Bond holdings will be affected by rising Interest rates – What are your views on QBE at this time re Growth in EBIT and is it on your radar as a Buy?” – Richard O.
“Hi James. As a new member, here’s my first query. In your weekend report you made a major point about inflation killing bull markets. By ‘inflation’ I presume you mean consumer price inflation. If so, you seem to be saying that consumer price inflation causes asset price deflation – i.e. share and property prices. This would imply that people would rather have more AUDs that are currently being printed at about $5B per week, than hard assets. I would also appreciate your present thoughts on CSL, because Bell Potter thinks it could fall below $200. I’m thinking of selling, in spite of recent falls.” – Regards Stuart C.
“Hi MM Team, with inflation in mind what is your preferred ETF. I’m thinking either bnks or ixi? Or is there another option you would recommend.” – thanks for your time, Paul A.
“Hi MM, Thank you for the very good Sunday update. Have a few questions as follows; GWA – has had a good run. Is it time to take profits or ok to sit in this one and use for dividends? IEU – has gone nowhere. Time to get out or stick with it? SPT & EML – Thoughts?” – Cheers, Jill C.
“Hi again James and Team.
“Hi James, with the falling USD, many commentators suggest investing in emerging markets during 2021. Which specific emerging markets do you recommend, and how does a rising AUD affect this choice?” – best wishes John K.
Good Evening James and Harry. Thank you for your contributions each day, I read every word with great interest. However, today you got me very confused! Your morning report on ZIP was quite convincing forecasting a price, an INITIAL target of $8. Your evening report gave up the ghost on ZIP suggesting you chose the wrong horse. I would be grateful if you can clarify your position on ZIP.” – Kind Regards, Errol K.
“Hi, any thoughts on ABP has just gone ex div and also had the SPP recently at 2.90 as I write is sitting at 2.74 is it a buy at this level ?…..I do hold the stock already 3 % of portfolio.” – Thanks, and Regards Glenn.
“HI James, I missed out on buying XRO when you first recommended it. The recent fall in price – why? Is it a good time to enter the stock? The daily ASX200 movers and losers, what is your approach to these figures” – Thanking you Indran.
