Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hello Team,
Made money with many recommendations but couple of tsunami like COV and TSGI wipe off most of the gain. How could I have managed better in terms of adhering to 5i advise and holding on to these losers longer than should have been? now these two stocks off the charts from the portfolios.
hope this will help many other members who are in the same boat as I am.
Thanks

Q: LGO, at 1.37 is close to its 52 low. The chart/ trend is ugly.... definitely not my friend :( BUT according to RBC it is cheap at 6xe .... and has a Morningstar "Undervalued" rating with a FMV of $2.05 (~50% upside). All of this has me thinking that this is a good time to add to a losing current position.
Could I have your current thoughts on LGO given its continuing presence in the 5i Growth Portfolio.

Thanks.

Q: I am reformatting my spreadsheets to line up with the 5i format and have a couple of questions using the Balanced Portfolio for July as a reference:
1. Where it says "1 Year -6.6%" does that mean total calendar year for 2018?
2. Under the "Calendar " column where it says " 2018 -13.2%" - does that mean trailing 12 month period (i.e. July 1, 2017 - July 30, 2018)?

Thanks for your help here.

- management,
- balance sheet,
- prospects over both the short term and long term
- the best relative valuation?
Thanks.
