Q: I believe that life insurance companies benefit from higher interest rates . When I was much younger a-lot of people and families seemed to carry life insurance policies . But from what I can tell ,young people today could not care less about life insurance . Could I get your out look for these insurance companies in Canada and what could have the best upside , if any due to interest rates continuing to rise. . Thanks.

Q: Hi Peter
The IPO for WISE (previously TRANSFERWISE) was July 2021 and the share price has dropped from a high of GBP 11.4 to now about GBP 3.4. I realize you don't cover European or English stocks but I'd be grateful if you could provide some basic data, such as amount of debt, free cash flow, P/E etc. Is this a stock which you would hold over the long term? As there is a lot of competition in the fintec sector, is there any news of duress experienced by WISE, or a likelihood of the firm going bankrupt?
Thanks a lot.

Q: CWB had a weak quarter with lower net interest margins than expected and weaker guidance as well. EPS of $0.84 missed estimates of $0.90.It appears loan and deposit growth came in lower than expected but the company expects higher rates to act as a bit of a tailwind over the year. On proximity to the oil sector, this type of activity can have a lagged impact but also financing activity might be more muted as energy companies are more focused on shareholder returns compared to capital investment

I asked the question show above you did not answer my question as to why CWB results were so bad please answer the question on CWB

Q: Hi 5i,
I would like an update on which horse you might bet on between these three.
Please rank #1 as the horse that is likely to be the marathon race winner. Can you please also give a higher preference to the horse that has the best balance sheet and stability in this challenging economic environment. High level reasons would also be greatly appreciated so I can understand your thought process. thanks
