Investment Q&A

Q: I have owned this stock for a while and am looking at exiting it to deploy the cash into growth stocks. The bid/ask spread has always been quite wide historically it seems. What is the best way to sell this type of stock with large Bid/Ask spreads?

Q: There was a short report released on Seeking Alpha yesterday on PBH. Well an article with a short thesis anyway. I've read through it and yes some points made were small concerns I had like the debt starting to be a concern again and that they will likely have to do another equity raise to get money to help with that. Also to a lesser degree the fact that they are claiming to be on the right side of ESG and health conscious people which is clearly not that true for a company that specializes in cured meats, deli sandwiches and pretty heavily processed foods. But I'm more concerned with your thoughts around the valuation being as high as he claims. Is this a metric you would use to value PBH, and then comparing it to high priced FANG companies? There were also some "questionable" exec comp payouts in their opinion. Can you provide your voice of reason? PBH has been on a good run this last year.

Q: Hi There,
My son (15) would like to take a small position in two growth stocks.
He is considering LSPD, NVEI, TOI.
With the recent run up in all three of these stocks, which two do you think look the best today?
Thank You

Q: I am contemplating to eliminate XBC from my non taxable accounts with significance losses (-52% of book value). The proceed (C$ 30K) will be invested into potentially better growth candidates, such as TIXT, WELL or BAM.a. Please kindly give your opinion and advice. Thank you very much. Bill.

Q: Hello Peter and Ryan,
Topicus is taking small hits everyday. I suspect it is profit taking or redirecting to other sectors. What is your view please? With respect to valuation, how does it compare to other types of companies in its sector (other than looking at what is being referred to as a mini csu). Thanks very much.

Q: Just finished the book '100-baggers'. As a buy and hold guy, the 'coffee can portfolio' approach is relatable. If you guys could purchase 10 Canadian stocks to not touch for the next 5-10 years which stocks would you include? Thanks.

Q: Given the prevalence of most major retailers aligning themselves with pay-now, pay-later providers do you see this as having a negative impact on Goeasy's competitive position in their marketplace?

Q: What does it mean to well to be added to the tsx comp index.

Q: Hi 5i,

Been watching DOO for a while but remained on sidelines etc. etc....I realize that DOO's large share price increase was related to recent earnings release, so ....with the recent run up in share price would you still be buyers of this stock for a new position--2-3 year hold? Why/why not?

Would you add to existing position? or would wait with expectation of a retrace?

Thx

Jim

Q: What stocks in Canada do you believe will do well with the passing of the Infrastructure Bill and Reconciliation Bill in the USA? Please list in order of preference. Thanks.

Q: LSPD has had quite the run recently. Not worrying about position size would you be taking some off the table here? Or let it ride for a bit longer. Say $160?

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan, and Team,

Nice report on AND. Just wondering if TFII operates in the same space. We've done very well with TFII (thanks, 5i) but are a bit low in Healthcare. AND looks promising, but want to make sure that it's complementary to TFII.

Thanks for your insight.

Q: Just wondering if you were on the presentation today, and if so what your take was.

Thanks.

Q: Your comment on the event and the Q2.

Thank you

Q: Does the Affirm/Amazon arrangement have any implications for GSY. I wonder if you could explain in a bit more detail the current relationship between GSY and Affirm, and add some colour to what the future might hold for these relationships.
