Q: Hello 5i

You are often asked if you could provide 2-3 "bargains" from the various portfolios - could you, given the current environment, provide
- 2-3 from the balanced / Income portfolios
- 2-3 outside of the portfolios (either Canadian or US please)
That you would consider a good opportunity to pick up at this time.

Thanks

Q: What's your take on Brookfield Business Partners? Its stock value has been just about cut in half YTD and is currently at 7 PE which seems stupidly cheap. But I know Brookfield's entities can't always really be judged on PE multiples Why has this stock been hit as if it's a high-flying tech? And if the market is deeply undervaluing it might Brookfield buy it out as it did its real estate entity?

Q: Hello Peter,
Thank you for your response to my question. I am sorry if part of the question was not clear.
I was not looking for a choice between SHOP and TOI, or NVDA/QCOM over others. What would perform better between now and the end of seasonal strength end Feb 2023? Tech (SHOP and TOI) ) or Energy and commodities? Growth ( NVDA and CRWD) or Value (QCOM and MSFT)?
In your mind, is there a clear winner that would justify a switch from one to the other and is it too late to sell and make the switch?
Nothing is for sure. Just your opinion.
Regards
Rajiv
