Q: Hello,
Question I've been wondering about for some time. ATZ appears to be one of your favourite companies. However, given its focus on higher end fashion, in a downturn, would not GIL stand to benefit more, given its focus is more lower end day to day needs? What makes ATZ more preferable to own? Thanks as always for your great service.

Q: Hello 5i, I read an article in the Edmonton Journal Aug 17/22 by Chris Varcoe titled Alberta Left out as Natural Gas Demand soars. In my opinion Canada has mainly one customer for its oil which is the US which since oil was discovered in Canada have been buying Canadian oil for half price of the world market price per barrel. Could you explain what is the discrepancy of what US companies get for there natural gas as well as world price and what Canadian natural Gas producers receive and why.

Q: Hello Peter,
When Brookfield first indicated that they were going to spin off the asset management unit, the stock popped alot, but then subsided. Now, the spinoff is more certain as opposed to just mentioning it, why is the stock not behaving as it did when the first announcement was made? Please provide your view. Given USA is still delaying its legalization of marijuana, I was deciding on Weed or Hut mining given both are volatile. What would make sense ? Thanks very much

Q: Hello

Presently ATZ is 4.29% of my RRSP account. I have done well as a result of your help.

I am thinking of selling half of my ATZ and increasing my holding in GOOG that is only 1% of my RRSP holdings.

My thinking is GOOG is huge and appears to be safer based on its size.

Your comments please.

Thank you

Mike

Q: I was thinking of selling my holdings in Paychex based on short term price target upside and purchasing CAE which seems to be selling at a discount with recent insider buying by Elise Eberwein one of their newly appointed directors. Your thoughts on this? And how much stake do you put into seasonal investing? What do you think of the people and website running equityclock?

Q: I bought these two during the commodity rally 6 months back. Now find myself down 40% on Alcoa and 65% on CENX. How would you proceed? Hold for a recovery or move on to something else ? If a move is warranted, which sector would you be buying currently ?

Q: Hello 5i. NPI hit a 52 week high today. I would appreciate your take on NPIs role/future in the evolution of Europe's move away from dependence on fossil fuels.

Also, do you see this pullback as an opportunity to add some CAE to existing modest holdings. I can't help thinking that at some point demand for CAE's services will return.

Approx. one year ago I asked for 5i's advice on dealing with an inheritance. It was a fairly involved/complex question but your advice has been excellent. I was nervous about how to deploy these assets and you provided sound advice. I appreciate the manner in which you provide guidance. I also want to thank you for your guidance through this market downturn.

Mike

Q: Ignoring company size and sector diversification, can you please rank these stocks on a best to worst risk / reward basis for long term hold. I own them all in various accounts with a half position or less so my plan would be to let some go and increase position in others with better potential. Any of them you consider good buy at the moment? Thank you!

ignoring the sector difference (tech/industrials), and having a small position in ATA and a slightly larger one in OTEX; from a growth and reliability of earnings (confidence in projections) point of view, could you discuss the benefit or detriment, of selling the OTEX position and increasing the ATA position. Which would be the more risky position in only one is held?
thanks
