Q: Dear 5i team.

Would appreciate your updated views on PKI with the recent news that Simpson is taking steps to field 9 new board members.
What is your educated guess on how this plays out?
I see the chart indicating a bounce opportunity as it's trading back to levels currently that look like triple bottom to my non educated eye.

Appreciate your assesment.

Q: Retired, dividend-income investor, with mostly a blue chip, buy-and-hold-strategy and trims-adds when dictated by asset allocation.

Technology has been taking it on the chin, to say the least. My proxy for this sector is XIT. When the dust settles, I'd like to top up my tech sector by adding to XIT.

My 2 options are:
#1 = sell NTR in my RRSP and direct the proceeds to XIT.
#2 = trim NNRG in my TFSA and direct proceeds to XIT.

So, the question is....which do you think has more upside over the next period of time....NTR or XIT or NNRG? Please rank these 3 for upside.

My current thinking is to go with Option #1.

Thanks for your help....Steve

Q: Hello Team,

I read your comments regarding Magna and your decision to downgrade it to a sell for the obvious trade war reason but also other ones. Do you place LNR in the same basket?

During these difficult times for Canada and our leading companies I appreciate your insight more than ever.

Thank you,
Adel.
