Q: I bought a large amount of PSI because it’s listed in a 5i model. I don’t follow Canadian markets, so I buy 5i-recommended Canadian businesses without much checking. PSI shares have only sunk in value. Why is PSI in your model (other than for dividend) ? Is it worth holding ? Is it an attractive takeover target ?
My question (admittedly a leading question from one who is weary of these losses in tax-deferred accounts): is it not better to shoot this thing and be done with it? You are still holding PSI which makes me think I must be wrong. Am I ?
Is PSI's *business model* viable, really sustainable ?
Sometimes a business I hold does nothing for long periods and just sits idle, or still. Then, suddenly it jumps like a rabbit, and the share price jumps and away we go. A forced metaphor perhaps but intended to to illustrate the sell-indecision. BNS is an example of such ‘rabbit’ — but it’s only after years that I am finally now breaking even, showing a small loss. The long wait is often not worth the opportunity costs.
I am baffled why PSI is favored at 5i.
