Investment Q&A

Q: Is today's price jump a short squeeze, a relief rally, or what? Thanks, Mark

Q: What are your current thoughts on EFN (given news today)? Thanks.

Q: Good Morning
Would you comment on NYX Gaming's results please. I have continued to hold them. Are they still worth holding for growth?
Thank you
Clarence

Q: Further to your answer to Delores regarding cineplex, do you think you will be publishing the update before or after they report earnings May 5? The reason I ask, is we currently hold cineplex in a riff account where the income is used as a pension replacement. While the stock has been a solid investment, aside from the modest yearly dividend increase there really hasn't been much capital appreciation in the last year. Although I am intrigued with the potential impact of the rec room once opened in Toronto, will have on their bottom line. We are thinking of replacing it with Bgi.un which pays an 8 per cent dividend. Ignoring the fact they are in different sectors can you comment on the following:
1) is this a good switch and will this switch increase risk
2) would you sell cineplex after the ex dividend date or wait for the earnings release?
As always thanks ( especially with my more recent buys of Crius and Shopify)!

Q: Do all four of these have dividends that are taxed differently and therefore shouldn't be in a non-registered? Does this apply to a TFSA as well, as foreign income I believe is taxed in a TFSA?

Where should I hold each of these? in an RRSP, TFSA or non-registered?

Q: Could you recommend some ETF's that would provide a good hedge against rising markets...I was thinking of buying a gold, materials, or bond ETF...Do you have any suggestions?

Q: I am thinking about selling my AQN shares and buying CCL shares for a couple of reasons, more growth and to get into the stock pre-split. Do you think this move is okay?

Q: i am thinking about full position in both SIS and PBH. I bought a little SIS before Xmas but wonder if I should move in another direction on these 2 as they have done very well recently. I have been contemplating for a while but wonder if I should wait for a pull back. Would KXS or GSY be another option? I am not to heavy in any of these sectors.
On another note I bought SHOP a while back, thanks! Your team has been a wealth of knowledge.

Q: I would like to add VIG and SPY to my RRSP account for both a 5% weight. Would you recommend both for a 5% weight? The only US stock that I own is RSG.

Thanks

Q: Can you explain what is Full Position ?

Q: Team,
Just like your thoughts on the listed stocks and which you would add ( in some order of preference) to an existing portfolio skewed to secure dividends and modest growth with a target 7-8% combined dividend and growth. Conversely is any one a definite NO.
Thx

Q: I am interested in Blockchain technology. Can you discuss some of the leading corporations developing that technology in North America? Thanks for your comments.

Q: Hello 5i team, I try to better classify the whole portfolio by various sectors and I hesitate where should I put bonds - to treat it as a separate category, or to classify depending on fixed income type.. etc. Looks like a theoretical exercise but still important to assess sector weights properly :) Your advice is highly appreciated!

Q: Hi Folks,

I'm now looking for a little torc in my dividend portfolio. Could you recommend 4 or 5 names of good dividend stocks where one might expect higher than average growth over the next 3 years. Sectors not important.

Many thanks,

Dennis

Q: Good day gentlemen,
Do you have an opinion on this company?
I noticed there is a new debenture that will be issued. It has an 8% yield would you consider this a moderate risk investment?

Q: Hi, folks
I'm very new to 5i Research, and trying to get myself orientated around.
I have some questions on the balanced portfolio
1) with less capital like $50k, what your recommendations on how to follow this portfolio?
2) when there is a add/remove in the portfolio, how quickly I will be notified?
3) in the report, when you add or trim a position, do you provide at what price to buy or sell?
4) for how long I need to hold the stocks in your portfolio? Do I need to have a stop loss/trailing stop to max my gain and minimize my loss?
5) what is the average holding period for a stock in this portfolio roughly? You can give me a range the longest to the shortest...
6) to initiate to build this portfolio for my own, is it better to wait for the market to pull back? or Do you have a recommendation about when to buy?

By the way, is it ok for me to ask questions about stocks/ETF's outside Canada or large cap's inside/outside Canada (I know you guys are focus on mid to small caps)

Thanks a lot!
Jane

Do you like the latest acquisition? Would you be buyers?

Q: I would like to invest in the Lithium space. What names or etfs? Greetings, Peter.

Q: This co. seems to have an interesting business model. Can you take a look and tell us what you think??

Q: If a person wanted to purchase either of the above for growth, stability which one would you recommend? Or conversely perhaps another transportation stock should be considered..Thank you.
