Q: Hello 5i's!

In your opinion, what strong Cdn or US companies look like excellent entry points or adds after yesterdays market drop and todays losses?

Thanks as always.

Q: Read the Q&As almost daily for several years now.
Senior, retired and living on government pensions.
My question is about a growth-oriented TFSA cash allocation of about 10k or less than .75% of total equity portfolio. Will not need the funds for another 34 months.
Understand you cannot indicate position size or provide personal advice.
Current TFSA holdings in order of largest %age gain to biggest losers in TFSA is: TFII, TRI, DIR.un, DSG, KXS, LMN, TOI, TVK, EQB, DOL, DOO, PMZ.un, TIXT, REAL, S, HOT.un, EGLX. Top 10 are in excess of 1.50% of position size. Bottom six are headed for exit ramp in due course.
Across entire non-reg and TFSA portfolio am underweight Cons Cycl, COMMS, Industrials, Healthcare and international multi-sector.
Pondering adding to existing or a new TFSA position to add to the 40-plus I already have. So how would YOU allocate this 10K today?

Q: Thoughts on the quarter please?

Thx

Q: I have held BYD since 2013. I paid $18.32 and never considered selling.

Can you explain why it now behaves in such an erratic manner ?
Is it a sell?

Q: Hi group what's you top pick in the top 6 sectors.( In order of preference with some dialog on each pick). Is it time to go all in verses averaging down. Days like yesterday should shake loose so supers buys?

Q: Could you please comment on the results and status of SBC. Thank You

Q: Is this a gold company to own. I already have Agnico and Torex and have done well recently, but noticed Mr Sprott has been buying more of JAG.

Q: I wonder if HPS' compensation policy includes SBC annually. If that's the case and we look at the stock's performance over the past 3 years, the stock was $12. in 2022. If the options are vested after 3 years as is often the case or worse if vested 5 years is'nt there a danger of putting a lid on the stock price until the options are totally vested and cashed? I'm worried that the money invested in the past year will be dead money no matter what PE shows. Right or wrong?

Q: I see CI MSCI Canada Quality Index Class ETF (FQC.TO) is no longer available. This was an ETF that seemed to following 5i's investments strategy. It's replacement CI Canada Quality Dividend Growth Index ETF (DGRC.TO) is very different, with a much different sector allocation.

Is there another Canadian ETF that you would recommend as a replacement for FQC, that is similar to the 5i strategy?

Thank you,
CR

Q: Please comment AW.un's Q2 results and news today resulting in a gaintic leap of some 17% to $33.45 current price. Txs for U usual great views & services

Q: Do you have an explanation on why aw.un is up so much today?

Q: Hi Peter & 5i,
Will you please explain the proposed strategic combination? Looks like if every unit holder tendered their shares for $37, then I'd receive $37 for 30% of my shares and 1 share of the new company for the remaining 70%?
If all unit holders (except me) elected to convert their shares to the new company, is it possible to receive $37 for 100% of my shares?
What is your recommendation?
