Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: If you check a couple of well read investment blogs you will find several posts suggesting 5i research is working with shorts - see TSGI, RHT, COV. You just removed COV and Largo from your portfolios. The performance of many 5i holdings in abysmal. Your recent interview suggests one of many investor errors is holding a poor performing stock for too long. It is no wonder so many mutual funds underperform the broad market when they hold all sectors and keep dogs way too long. Please explain 5i position and why you continue to add companies that are either dump and pump or poor managers.

Q: hi, 5I
Your response to a question about buying that stock:
We would be comfortable buying BEP.UN today.
My question is what parameter(s) are you rely on to say that, apart the fact that it is doing new high everyday (I like the change from limited partnership, and the market also )
But this is a one time, and it seems very expensive to me.
Your detailed answer would be very appreciated

Q: I own only these two companies in an unregistered account and need to raise some cash, so I need to sell either a 1/2 position of one or 1/4 position of each. Both holdings are up substantially (100% and 80% respectively). Based on continued future growth, do you have a suggestion of how I should proceed? Thanks so much.

Q: Once the vote on conversion occurs, would you be able to provide members with an update,and explanation around tax implications? It appears there is some confusion around if taxes have to be paid upon conversion or at a later date when shares are sold. Also, what will the dividend be as under the current structure we receive interest
Thanks for the great service,and recommendation on Boyd.
