Investment Q&A

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

Q: Which of these is the better buy at current levels? Cash flows seem wildly different between the two, can you help me understand the difference? I like the MFC buybacks and higher dividend. Will increasing interest rates benefit both of these companies equally? How long do you expect it to take for higher rates to filter through to the bottom line? Please deduct as many credits as necessary. Thank you.

Q: In your answer to Ken on Aug 25, you state that DND is trading at 7X earnings. I haven’t been able to verify that anywhere.
They are certainly not trading 7X TTM or 2022 earnings. The highest analyst estimate for 2023 I see is for about $1.20 . That would imply a forward PE closer to 14X. I would note also that DND doesn’t have a great record recently at living up to analysts expectations. Is 7X based on 2024 estimates?

Q: I was interested in your reply to the 10-bagger inquiry. I want to buy lspd, shop and nvei "to have and to hold". Is now a good time or should I wait for further rate increases? All 3 are in the same group. How does a 40/40/20 split sound?
I think, at some point, they will rise dramatically, too.
Thank you.

Q: hello 5i:
a follow up to a previous question on ECN.DB: can you explain why there has been a steady erosion in the price of ECN.DB, from a high of 104 a year ago, to $98.50 today? I would think that a 6.1% return (at todays price) would be attractive and would actually result in a higher price, assuming that one believes ECN is worth holding (I do). Is it simply a matter of higher interest rates, present and anticipated?
thanks

Q: I understand from reading the latest report, your confidence in the company has come down considerably. How would you rate your confidence in management to turn things around on the revenue side and do you still consider the stock a good long term hold at these level? I had a full position but the stock has been down a lot in the last 2 years. I see many A ratings in your grade system but an overall B rating concerns me a bit. I am wondering if now is the time to move on to better opportunities? Thank you for your guidance.
