Q: Good morning,

I'm short on discretionary stocks. Looking at above 2 companies although Decker's is plunging this morning they have strong brands, they beat expectations but would not provide guidance. Buying opportunity?

Any other you like better even if not in this sub industry. Loaded with US cash

Appreciative of your services tried Jim Cramer for 4 months on a Christmas deal, Don't know how people can work with him quite the character and he makes my head spin. Loll

Have a nice day

Q: If ATD were to complete a purchase of Seven & I at a decent price, I believe 5i's assumption is that we would see a pop in share price. If ATD were to walk away from a deal, would the share price also increase (due to less dilution, debt, etc)?

In other words, is this a situation where the primary risk for ATD is overpaying for Seven & I?

Q: My grandson is graduating next month. As a gift I’m going to give him an initial deposit for a registered account, help him open it by attending a meeting with a bank, or help him set up a DIY account. I want him to choose TFSA, RRSP, or FHSA after doing some reading (he doesn’t turn 18 for a few more months so we have some prep time). I read The Wealthy Barbour in my 20’s, is it still a good choice to educate and motivate young people about savings as a lifestyle, or do you have some other suggestions? I would also love suggestions for 2-3 stocks or 1-2 etfs that would be suitable for the initial investment (that could be added to regularly to keep the process simple) if he chooses DIY. Thanks!

Q: Hi 5i. Question #4 from me as a new subscriber. I continue to have about 70% of my savings in cash with plans to input through dollar cost averaging. A couple of weeks ago you suggested a spread over 6 months. Is this still your view? It seems that the rebound has taken place and I am worried about missing the increases. But I know we are still in an uncertain market. Thank you
