Q: When 5i answers a question like this are the 3 top picks listed in priority order?
Or should thee answer be simply interpreted as “ endorsements” if one is looking for stocks to buy now ?

Thanks

Q: This is for a 2 year hold. I am 15% down on BCE. I also see stocks like SMCI crushing it.

For total growth of 50% over 2 years, which do you prefer?

FYI in Feb 2024, I am seeing articles on BCE such as:

Q: Peter and team,
I am going to require cash in a year for estate planning purposes. My plan is to take cash slowly over the year from my winning stocks and put it into PSA until required. My only losing stock is NTR. Would you recommend selling it now because it is most likely dead money or hold with a good chance there may be a bounce in the coming year.

Thanks so much

Cathy

Q: Hello 5i research team, I will soon be liquidating a brokerage account containing shares in 18 companies, probably within 2 or 3 months. How would you suggest I proceed with the timing and pace of the sale? As soon as possible, gradually, according to the wishes of the heirs, or at the deadline, to take advantage of market exposure for longer? Should I rely on technical analysis to determine the timing of the sale? If so, which indicator (ma, rsi, macd, or others) and how often (daily, weekly or monthly)? Thank you for your collaboration, Eric

Q: With steel prices having moved up a fair bit over the last few months, I have been surprised at the continued weakness in shares of STLC. Now down to $40. The company paid a $3.00 special dividend in each of the past 2 years, and also pays a regular 42 cent quarterly dividend, so a trailing 12 month yield of 11.5%. Solid balance sheet. What do you think of it at this price, and is there an earnings forecast for 2024?

Q: Can you kindly recommend any sites tracking RSI for individual stocks and whether you feel this is a good input into the decision making process of when deciding to buy an oversold stock?

Also, I notice there are timeframes for RSI (weekly, monthly etc) so how does the timeframe inform the result and help a decision to purchase an oversold stock?

Thanks as always for your guidance!

Q: Hi, was wondering about swapping Nvei for Eif .
Looking for a more stable company with the dividend. Would also get a tax loss by selling Nvei . Could you talk about the two for management, debt, and long term investment..
Which would you like in a downturn or recession if or when we get one?
Thanks

Q: Hi: I am looking back at your recent answers and also this week’s earnings. Are you now recommending that GOOS is a sell, please advise with some suggested guidance going forward. With their seasonal business it would also be helpful if you can comment on likely updates to their progress, ie we need another winter to pass before we see any changes.

Thanks in advance.
