Investment Q&A

Q: Hi, I'm thinking of initiating a position in one of these. Thinking of three plus years and the highest growth. How would you rank these in order, and please give a good entry/price. Please note that I just submitted a question but forgot to include DOL and GIB.A. Thank you.

Q: Good morning

What is ATD's average Historical P/E ratio, say for the past 5 or 10 years?

What is the High and Low Historical P/E ratio, the range, during that time period?

Dividing ATD's current stock price of $69 by their reported net income per share of $2.72 yields a Historical P/E ratio of 25.4.

Am I doing what seems like a simple calculation correctly?

I ask because I am seeing a Future P/E ratio for ATD in the financial press of 17.3, which implies a large increase in net income compared with their last fiscal year, a decline in stock price, or some combination of the two,

How should one interpret this dramatic change in Future vs Historical P/E for ATD?

And finally, what is 5i's view on how expensive ATD's price is currently, compared with past history? Does 5i support accumulating ATD shares at this point?

Thank you.

Q: Hi, if not already asked....looks like Aritzia posted impressive numbers! Thoughts?
Does it still remain as one of your top picks in Consumer Discretionary?

Q: Do you have a strong preference between these 2 today?

Thanks.

Q: 1) For these listed firms, which ones have the strongest link to the nuclear energy field?
2) I have a fair sized holding in WSP but am eager to branch out for diversification purposes to either STN or ATRL. I see from other questions, 5i's seems to favour STN as a compliment to WSP. How strong is STN in the nuclear field (their website suggests some capability)?
With thanks.

Q: what is the annualized return of SPY, QQQ and XIC over the last 20 years. I thought I read an answer where you said the S&P only was 2% including dividends which seems too low.

Q: I'd be interested to hear your take these days on Cargojet and CTC. Both seems to be on a roll, and I wonder if this is "good" momentum?

Q: Hello
Is it possible to receive from you the compound average growth rate of tax 60, SP500 and Canadian aggregate bond market with inception date of dec 31, 2012? (12.5 years)

Q: How would you rank the following for purchasing today? Are there any you would not purchase or would only purchase a portion of final holding?

Q: With the current tariff situation and the direction of Donald Trump unclear to say the least, would you continue to hold, add to holding, or sell? Have a gain in the stock still even with the significant downtrend since early April.

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
BDI is suddenly up 3%+ on heavy volume on a down market day...your thoughts please! Thanks!

Q: I have all three of these positions.

I'm happy to keep my capital invested in the Brookfield empire, but it feels inefficient and not thought out the way it sits in my portfolio, almost like a series of afterthoughts.

The breakdown of the three (as a % of their cumulative totals in my portfolio)

BN = 57%
BEPC = 8%
BEP.UN = 35%

(Ignoring the whole tax schmozzle with reg vs NR accounts),

Would you recommend any changes? That could include adding another Brookfield entity as a possibility.

Q: Hi there,

Do you know if there’s anything behind the departure of the CEO and hence stock price drop today?

Thanks.

Q: MDA has had a great ride over the last 12 months (+171%) - is the share price ahead of itself? Is it too late to take a bite?

Your insight is most welcomed.
