Q: Hi Team,
I have been watching TOI closely. Recently (today for example most my tech are down 5-8% range). Yet TOI is up 3% as of writing this. It seems to have great support around the $85 level. Do you think that the bottom may be close to in for TOI, or is it just bouncing around until the next leg down do you figure? I know this is only your best guess, but value your opinion. I guess what I am looking for is..is it time to add to this name? Also...could you throw in some best conviction names either Cnd or US that you think are stupidly oversold right now that you think would be great buys for a 5yr plus hold? Thanks!
Shane.

Q: All three reported tonight (March 3). What are your thoughts on the results and would you rate them a buy/sell/hold and why? If a hold, what would you see as a catalyst to get each of them moving? Thanks for all you do.

Q: Given the increasing implied VOL in options, what are your favourite names in CAD and USD for covered call strategies?

Looking for stocks that you already like that have reasonably liquid options (I know harder in CAD) and you think have excellent bounce back potential and wouldn't mind owning for 2-3 years. Thanks

Q: Good Morning Peter & Team.

I have two questions. Please charge me accordingly. Both have to do with ramifications from increasing cost of OIL.

1. Do you think the ever increasing price of gasoline is going to push more people towards EV and if so, what would be your recommended play to take advantage of this?

2. Commodities especially those coming from mining, and especially those used in the EV industry, appear to be on the rise. What recommendations would you make for us to take advantage of this trend? Right now I have RIO & DML on my radar.

Thanks for all you do

Q: I like to look at total return including capital gains plus dividends over the previous 5 or 10 years when considering the purchase of a stock. This sometimes keeps me from purchasing a stock with a big dividend but little or no price appreciation. But I do not have a site that I am confident in to provide total return information for US or Canadian listed stocks. I use Globe watchlist which has a 5 year return but it does not agree with Canadian Stock Channel, for example.
Is there a site or simple method to get this statistic?

Q: Hi 5i,
Hope you are all well.

My wife's portfolio accounts (RSP,TFSA,CASH) on a consolidated basis show the following asset allocations by % sector type:

Tech --- 38%
Telec -- 0%
Financ - 4.6%
Cons --- 6.8%
Mater -- 0.6%
Reits -- 1.8%
Energy - 3.8%
Util/Pip - 4.0%
Indus --- 2.6%
Health - - 0%
CASH --37.8%

Obviously, quite a few glaring gaps to fill ... could you please suggest some top of mind positions in the key underallocated sectors that would provide a more rational and balanced portfolio thesis.

Thank you very much,
Dean

Q: I am underwater with all of my holdings. SHOP is currently down 46%, GSY is down 16% and NPI is down 17%. Should I sell and cut my losses or hold? Can I hope for SHOP or the others to recover in 2-3 years time?

Q: March 2 the market had quite an up day thanks to J. Powell but these 4 stocks went in the opposite direction - some as much as 5% CELH (has recovered and then some), U, SHOP and TOI. Of the 4, can you give me a bit of an explanation. The drastic down and up move in CELH and the down moves in the other 3. Many thanks.

Q: Greetings 5i,

I own both of these and have done well. I consider them long term holds. Bruce Flat has stated last quarter he sees 20% growth per year over several years. Apollo has merged with Athene (insurance /annuities etc). My question is, in an inflationary and subsequent rising interest rate environment, will these two companies face significant headwinds? Have we seen the “top” in the asset management class short to medium term? Please explain why or why not. Deduct as needed.

Cheers!

Q: Hi 5i team. Love what you guys offer here as I am a recent trial member who pulled the trigger and signed up. I currently hold ATZ, BAM.A FLOW GSY PRN SLF TOI VFV and WSP in a TFSA. I am looking at rounding out my portfolio to include one of: IIP.un, DIR.un, CAR.un for long term hold with focus on growth and ok with some volatility. So out of those 3 what would you suggest is the best one to choose? Also, any other suggestions you would consider adding to my portfolio for increased diversification based on my overall strategy? Thanks
