Q: I have been fortunate to have made 300 per cent with Go Easy, is it time to trim and buy into Air Canada or WYNN with the potential rebound or simply run with GSY? Thanks
PS I’d have never known about GSY if it weren’t for your stellar recommendation and advice.

Q: I am considering adding Power Corp to the income portion of my portfolio as a partial replacement for my overweight position in BCE.  The primary reason for considering POW is that I feel that there may be significant value through their ownership of Wealthsimple.  Are you able to quantify the Wealthsimple value within POW given their rapid growth rate and more than $9 billion in AUM?   Do you think that they are sitting on other spinoff possibilities, similar to the Lion Electric IPO? (that I understand added close to $3.00 per share value to POW).  And perhaps most importantly, do you feel that management is motivated to act to surface value for shareholders?  (they don't appear to have been in the past).
Thank you.

Q: Hello 5i,
Are you able to break down by sector (to the extent this is possible) the holdings of each Berkshire and Bam? Brk.b is listed as finance and Bam as real estate, but I don’t think this tells the whole story.
Would a 10% position in each of these (20% total) be too much for average risk investor?
Tia!

Q: My question is about how VIRT would do in a sell off or a bout of volatility. I have been reading that they would do well with increased volatility because trading frequency would increase. This would suggest that it might offer some hedging benefits. I am intrigued but skeptical of this thesis because in a serious drawdown my experience is that people just kind of sell everything and VIRT would hardly come up as something to hold on to unlike say gold or even a utility. Can I have your thoughts please? Thank-you.
