Q: Recently this stock peaked @$53.24 and has graudually dropped to the present level $45.30. This stock seemed to be the poster child, and needless to say I added to my position in the high fifties, and now I am underwater.
Is there anything I should be concerned about this stock, or just hold. Earning have always beat forecasts, so I have a difficult time understand the performance.
Your advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance
Q: Can you comment on the press release from Constellation Software stating that they will no longer hold quarterly results conference calls. Won’t that negatively impact investor relations (for any public company) and is this move code signaling that something big is in the works?
I’m using the 5i model portfolios for the 35% portion of my overall portfolio allocated to Canadian Equites. I’ve been investing in companies from both, the balanced and income portfolios, mostly because I’m having a hard time choosing which model portfolio is right for me. I like the dividends and income provided by one but also like the growth potential the balanced portfolio provides. I’m 50 years old and plan to retire in the next 3-5 years and would like to know if there is any criteria or guidance on what model portfolio to choose?
Q: Please analyze fundamentals and growth prospects of SIS as a good candidate to buy now... comment on comparable competitors that could also be suitable to what may be suitable to the grwoing aging population
Thankyou
Q: 1776 % on the year.
1336% on the 6 month
250% on the 3 month
92% in the 20 days that I have been following it since you recommended it.
So is this a crap shoot or a real company ? Have I missed it ? I have really bad memories of my Canarim / VSE days in the 1980s .
Q: I am new to 5i. I appreciate the candid views you offer your subscribers.
For those of us with smaller portfolios or those wishing to cap Canadian equity exposure to say 50% and unable add all 26 positions of your Balanced Equity portfolio what is your suggestion? I use ETS to gain USA/Int exposure and pick Canadian stocks for Canadian exposure.
Do you have a recommendation of say 12 positions for a TFSA with a 5 - 10 yr time horizon?
It is Canada so a couple obvious inclusions are a bank and insurance company followed by a myriad of sectors and companies?
Q: Would you consider the SHOP has passed the best time of the business life cycle? Canada and U.S. Chicken Farm business, NAFTA and so on..... Just my thoughts about recent news about shop, looking back long enough, Canadian companies are just like chicken, and U.S banks and brokers are farmers. The farmers feed chicken then kill them later they want. BB, Nortel, VRX, CXR... It's another time two U.S firms joined NB feed the SHOP, last year they short SHOP, looked like they failed, now turn around to feed shop.. bet on later days/years, U.S hedge fund or brokers will "kill" the iconic Canadian company in E-com sector.
Thanks
