Q: I hold ROP HEI WSP ATS TFII AXON VRT in the industrial sector. 5i has also recommended TT TDG RTX and URI. I would like to sort out which could be sold [in whole or in part] and which could be added to. For a long-term hold, which could go and which would you advise to be the core for this sector.
Thanks

Q: I have owned KXS for several years and although I am not unhappy with its performance it is rather volatile. DSG which is in a similar business seems to experience more price stability. I am ok with volatility and tend to hold equities for the long term. Using long-term growth prospects and current valuations as a guideline would you favor one over the other to any great extent? Taxes are not an issue so I could easily switch to DSG if the metrics suggest this is the better stock.

Appreciate your insight.

Q: You responded to an earlier question today about SHOP's decline today with: Yipitdata, a cloud-tracking service, noted it estimated that SHOP gross payments volume growth decelerated 'significantly' over the past week of reporting (to Jan 22). If volume did drop significantly, would this not be something 'significant'? I can see a slight drop that gets washed out over a longer time frame but a big drop all of a sudden isn't a good sign. What would cause a significant drop? Also, how reliable is Yipitdata? I guess what I'm asking is if SHOP is still looked on favourably by 5i? Is there anything to be overly concerned with?

Q: Greetings,

My first purchase of CCL.B in May 2017 was just before the stock split. At the time it was $63.3 per share. I have earned approx $1200 in dividends and am currently down around $600 based on current share price, and up $600 overall. Can you please remind me why I should continue to hold this stock. My patience is beginning to wear thin. Many thanks and my apologies if my expectations are not reasonable.

Q: It's been a while since we asked about SLP. Share price is largely sideways for the past year. What is your assessment of SLP and are we buyers here? I see a debt free company with next year sales and EPS growth of 12% and 21% and average price target ~40% higher than it is now.

What does the market not like?

I'm looking to add a new industrial and BYD and SLP are being considered. Where does your money go?
