Q: Hi, Quarterly results missed all estimates for the second quarter in a row. The stock was added to Balanced Portfolio, 6-8 weeks ago at $39.90, with the thesis that it was just one bad quarter and it was time to start a position. Your advice has been to stay course as strong growth is expected over next 2 years, even after today's earnings release. Apparently, market does not agree. What influenced your decision to add this stock to the 5i Portfolio and do you still support it despite its dismal performance and 30% loss in value in just one day. Thank you

Q: hi folks, opinion on Q3 results for Photon Control; seemed to be beat with upbeat guidance. Did U have chance to listen to conference call. I added today to small position and knows it requires patience, but do U think the worst is behind Photon/Semi conductors, and would U rate the stock a Buy/Hold/Sell. Thanks as always jb, Piedmont QC PS: I check "Public Question" but response comes back as "Private Question"...am I doing something wrong??

Q: Hello Peter & team,

Have been away for a short while and am now happy to once again be a part of the 5i Family. My Question..

I have approx $20,000 to invest. It is a credit to your team how well the 5i Balanced Equity Portfolio has performed. I will not be ashamed to invest my funds via following your lead. In looking at the portfolio and with "Growth" in mind, are you able to advise which of the companies within the portfolio you would start new positions?

Thanks for all you do

Q: I have found conflicting information from various sources in my research of GC. My questions are:
1) What is the TTM P/E of the stock, and what is the estimated forward P/E?
2) What is the total share count currently, and what has it been in each of the last 4 years?
3) Would you start a full position in this stock today?

Good luck fellow investors!

Thanks
John
