Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I have to express my concern regarding your response to Dave re: COV on 7/29. The comment that you take a "Portfolio Approach" and 5I "will not enter into debates on individual stocks" is the issue. My concern here is that I do not buy ALL of the stocks in a particular portfolio but do own many of them. By the sheer presence of a stock in a 5I portfolio suggests to me that you approve of the stock and are recommending it. I have held onto stocks far too long because it was retained in the portfolio. I consider if a stock remains in one of your portfolios it is a "Hold" recommendation from 5I. Am I wrong?

Q: Hi, I am looking to add a position in either DSG or LSPD to my RSP. I am looking at these to add some growth as I have a number of bank and utility stocks in my RSP now, which provide dividends but not a lot of growth. Can you please advise which you would recommend, including your reasons and also how they compare from both a risk and growth perspective.

thanks for your advice.

Q: I, like Medison, am fed up with Knight and Jonathan Goodman. I voted to keep him in and I thought that after the battle, he would try and create some shareholder value. If Medison can call a shareholders meeting, I think a lot of shareholders will side with Medison this time around. A very frustrating stock and I know that if one is frustrated, they should sell. Do you think we will ever see some move to the upside in Knight in this century, or maybe Knight is for the great-great-great-grandchildren. lol

Q: I've owned Game Host since 2016 mostly for income. I used its monthly 5% dividends and put them towards my mortage payments. Since my mortgage interest is now 2.85%, I think it makes sense. I just wanted to check if the company is still doing "ok" to continue with my strategy (GH.CA is a 2.0% position relative to my total account and 1 of 5 income stocks that pay my mortgage interest). Could you share some of its metrics, like debt-to-equity and other metrics that matter to income stocks?
