Q: When did you buy this stock for your portfolio?
In a recent question about QST you said that you still believe in the reasons you bought it and are not selling.
You dropped coverage of QST 5 years ago.
I see nothing in the fundamentals that looks promising.
Could you expand on the reason you are still holding?

Q: My ETF RRSP Portfolio is doing okay but when I compare to your Balanced Portfolio its return % is much less. I suspect that this is as expected because of the large number of stocks that make up ETFs and your experience is compiling the BE portfolio with a basket of about 25 5i-researched stocks.
1. If an investor was to implement your balanced portfolio should the initial % weightings be used or the current weighting %s? For example TFII is currently at about 8% but it has increased 140% since added.
2. Are there any holdings that you may be considering reducing or adding at the moment?
Thanks for the great service. Dan

Q: Shopify has crept up close to 10% of my portfolio. I have already taken back more than my original investment. I know that from a portfolio management position it should be trimmed, but is there any case to hold it long term, or is it best to trim and re-allocate.
My book value is low on it and it is in Non-taxable account.
My logic is letting a some concentrated positions run to outperform the market, but I also see the risk of a major correction in a momentum stock.
Thanks again.

Q: Hi,
If not already asked, what are your thoughts on the most recent news for Aritzia wrt acquiring a men's clothing line? I for one had not heard of this brand so not sure how it might stack up to other men's clothing brands. How accretive might it be?
I took a 1/2 position just before the announcement so good timing on my part. :) Street seems to approve of the purchase.
Also wrt ATS Automotive recent acquisition....thoughts on this? How accretive or what might it mean to additional revenues/profits going forward?
I don't own this but am watching it closely.
Cheers,
SteveMc

Q: Hi 5i,
In January, evidently like a number of others, I thought QST's prospects looked promising and bought in. Now I'm down considerably. CFRA rates it as a STRONG SELL and I haven't seen a more optimistic opinion anywhere.
Are QST's prospects really, suddenly, so bad that it should be sold ASAP to prevent even greater loss going forward (although selling would mean somebody is buying at this price, thinking to make money) or would you recommend waiting through at least the next earnings report, or two? I don't need to sell, but I've held on to some sinkers in the past waiting for the turnaround that never came and I'd prefer to cut my losses and avoid going through that exhausting exercise again here if the odds are that QST will remain a sinkhole..
Thanks for your thoughts!
Peter

Q: I took an amateur stab at a discounted cash flow analysis of PHO
to help me decide if I should vote Yes or No to approve the upcoming friendly takeover vote. In the end, I had to make a lot of assumptions about growth rates, cash flow projections and valuation of comparables. I came up with an intrinsic value share price ranging from 3.64 - 5.93 depending. But because of all the variables, plus my non-expertise, I do not trust my own analysis. Also there may be better ways to value the company than DCF analysis. What's your best guess as to this company's value or range of values? What method and assumptions would you use?
