Q: BEPC has been a favorite of yours for a long time. I bought it more towards the highs a couple years ago when there was so much talk about renewables from the Biden administration and everyone was piling into renewables. Since then this stock has gone down and it was your favorite two years ago at all time highs and now around 20 dollars off its high it is still a top dividend pick. I also averaged down on it based on how favorable you spoke about this company but I have still not broken even. My question is in what environment would you see this stock doing well again? What would be a catalyst for this stock performing well and why is it still a top dividend pick? Does it represent value at this price and could you please comment on the profitability of this company. Thank you!

Q: I’ve held PBH through thick and thin for over 5 years waiting for the “growth” to materialize and yet after this time I’m down nearly 20%. How long do you give a company to perform before moving on? Even if I was just breaking even I’d have some more patience with this but the opportunity cost of 5 lost years and a 20% loss is telling me it’s time to find something else. Your perspective would be appreciated. Thanks.

Q: Hello 5i team,
Just a few questions on FSZ. It seems that the stock has been in a holding pattern for the past 2.5 years. Where is the payout ratio at these days with the stock? Has the AUM increased or decreased in the last few quarters?

Are you still confident of this stock in the income portfolio?

Q: Happy New Year to the 5i crew. A question regarding EXLS, it's had a very nice climb since early 2020 and has more than tripled. The PB and PS look reasonable for a growth company but the PCF looks quite high. Is there more gas in the tank over the next 1-2 years?
