Q: Hi,
I purchased a small starter position in SPOT a few weeks ago. I know 5i sees a lot growth potential with Spot and it has a high valuation. Lately I’ve read lots of bearish views on this company. What sets them apart from all the competition and free music available? I realize they have more users, international following, playlist sharing, and ad revenues. What am I missing that google, amazon and Apple don’t have or can’t replicate? What sets them apart from the competition?
Thanks,
Kerri

Q: Greetings 5i,

I sock away a bit of cash for the summer months as i find there is always a few opportunities to pick up a good companies at a discount. I limit this to a small portion of my portfolio but would like your recommendations on your top 5 CDn (growth) and 5 top US Dividend Payers (need US income) that you would pick up on a dip or low volume during the summer months? Last August was a great example of picking up really good names at a discount. I realize there are no guarantees that we will see the same market but always on the lookout to pick good long term names to add to my portfolio. In the past i have picked up Visa, JPM this way.

Thanks for your advice.

Q: What would be your top 5 ( in order if possible) non-dividend paying CDN stocks that offer the best risk/reward capital appreciation potential over the next couple of years.

Thanks,

Q: Dear 5i,
I am frustrated with BUS! We are down 55% in our TFSA's and it shows no sign of recovery even after a fairly positive quarter. My feeling is that buyers are moving over to NFI with their MCI division they produce everything that BUS does. I think BUS has lost its niche market. What are your thoughts? I hate to sell with these losses in my TFSA. Is their any hope for a recovery?

Q: I notice some stocks, the minute they have a run-up they give up all their gains and more. KXS, RHT - these two are in your portfolio and COV in your portfolio which a short time ago ran up to $7.00 and then pulled back to $3.00ish, I am hoping happens again, so I can buy it in the $3.00 range - your thoughts (and you always have very good ones)? Thanks Dennis.
