Investment Q&A

Q: Hello,

Given the recent correction in the EV market and sluggish beginning of 2024, would you consider the current PPS a good entry point?

Q: Hello Team,
Which of these two would you prefer and why.
Thank You,
Barry

Q: Recent news reports talk about “The Granolas”. European companies powering markets like The Magnificent Seven are doing. Any comments and are there ETF’S for them? Term coined by Goldman-Sachs, I believe.

Q: Hi 5i

Q: I have been investigating MELI, and have found it to be an interesting stock to possibly add to my portfolio. Would you consider it to be a quality investment for 3-5+ years? Could you please compare it to AMZN and SHOP? Would it make sense to hold all three, or would there be too much overlap? I understand that MELI has a South American focus, so would MELI’s largest risk be government stability or intervention? Thanks for your assistance.

Q: Hi

What would you prefer among XEF, ZEA, and VI for a long-term hold for international exposure ex CA and US.

Thanks

Q: With today's jump in ARM and current valuation, would you suggest selling and buying back when things settle ? I was tempted to sell when it hit $120+, but did not...

- I love many facts about the company and thought buying at $78 was expensive, but realistically what are the 5i Crystal ball suggestions and recommendations ...

Happy Spring in February!
Thanks

Q: Thanks to Earl for his recent note on how to go about selling PDYPF shares (?) through BMO InvestorLine.

However I'm still confused as to what the Flutter Entertainment transaction is actually all about.

Is the Fan Duel listing a spin out from Flutter and a completely separate listing? Ie, is this a choice between owning Flutter shares or Fan Duel shares on the NYSE?

Is it a choice between what exchanges you want to hold your shares on, NYSE or London?

If the Fan Duel listing is a spin out, do PDYPF share holders get some Flutter shares and some Fan Duel shares?

Finally, if it's a choice between one or the other, which one do you favour, Flutter or Fan Duel?

Thanks,
Pete

Q: Is there an ETF similar to SPHD (larger companies with low volatility), however is focused outside of the US (and Canada) that you would recommend? Preferably with a yield over 3.5-4%. I hold VIU for general exposure however moving to retirement and am looking for a bit more income focus.

Q: Can you provide an current on EVVTY and an outlook going forward.

Q: Would you please give me your opinion on this company.Is it a very good company or would SHOP be the same or better?

Q: I need to sell my PDYPF shares but there is no hurry at all. Would you wait until the FanDuel spinout or would you sell now. In other words is the spinout likely to significantly increase the price enough for me to wait. Just your best guess. Thanks.

Q: I got a call back from BMO Investorline as a follow up to my questions last week. I think I now have the answers and want to share them. The PDYPF are not ADRs and he did not see a need to do anything immediately. I can have the shares converted to FLUT on the NYSE but there is a 1% "stamp" tax ($608 for me) plus to sell I would pay the standard $10 commission and would then have to do Norbert's Gambit to convert to CAD or pay their conversion fees. If I sell the shares on the LSE I would pay slightly over $280 commission plus two fees/taxes totaling 0.6% and have to pay the conversion from sterling to CAD. I'm glad I have a good profit on these shares because that sure adds up. I both cases slightly over 1% of the value. I hope this information helps others.

Q: Looks like an interesting turnaround play.

Q: What are your thoughts on this IPO
Thanx
Gary

Q: Would you know where this Flutter Stock (ADR? LSE, ISE) is traded? This is how it shows in my account and my broker did not know. And If traded on the LSE or ISE would anything happen following the new NYC listing? Thank you

Q: your thoughts on BASF (BASFY) ? Dividend payer/ large european company. For a long term hold. thanks

Q: These companies were touted as potential beneficiaries of U.S. restrictions on use of Huawei 5G tech. But no sign of this in their share prices. Too early, or not happening?
