Investment Q&A

Q: Hi Peter, can you comment on Well Health Technologies. Is there anything out there that would have sent the shares this low ($4.40 range)? I thought the last qtr was solid. Also, do you think the sell off is overdone?

Q: Hi Gents,

Please compare these 2 companies which one (and why) you’d choose today for 3 year holding approx

Thanks!

Q: Good day guys ..
Would u agree with Mr Jordan’s zinberg assessment for this name .. recently it has been hold in your eyes.. is it now a buy at current levels .. this guy is a donville disciple and appears to be rather sharp in picking small cap stocks.. would u follow his lead here and buy as he currently thinks it’s at maximum pessimism..
thank u
Mark

Q: Hello 5i,
With the commercial vacancies, lenders just walking away from commercial properties abandoning payments, with working from home becoming the norm and with commercial property tenants and owners defaulting in payments, is dir.un still an investable REIT or should I take my small prfit and run? I have a 5-10 year outlook, am an older value investor enjoying the dividends. If there is a suggestion to sell would you suggest an alternative please

Q: If oil were to get above $80 plus what would your top 3 producers be with high leverage to barrel price? Would Saturn be a strong consideration?

Q: Dear amazing 5i employee,

I trust that you are well!

An analyst at 5i noted (in answer to one of questions) that there are dozens of trading opportunities available in the market right now. Would you be able to list some of those opportunities? By trading opportunities I mean simple trades (buy low, sell high).



Yours kindly,
David

Q: NBLY is definitely the sorriest holding that I have. Down basically every week since early March.

Has not moved 1 iota in the face of the current market upswing.

Although you guys continue to tout their great earnings outlook in 24 and 25, others, I'm sure have the same info.

There must be a reason for this sad state of affairs with NBLY.

Can you comment please.

Q: Hope you and the team (and readers) had a nice long weekend.

What looks “cheap” to you right now? I recognize that sometimes things are cheap for a reason. But in your view, what has been punished too much and likely to appreciate from here? 3m was one that I was considering as it is still down quite a bit and will recover in a better market (I assume—as everything seems to have its day). Thanks,

Jason

Q: Can you recommend North American companies that are largely or wholly involved in natural gas.

Q: So far it has been an eventual year to date for Quarterhill -- gone are the CEO , the dividend , the CFO and the WiLan Division . The sale of WiLan seemed like an overly complicated transaction -- what is your opinion of the price of $71m they received ?
Quarterhill was a top pick yesterday on BNN , and at close of business today the stock was up 20% in two days . What is your current opinion of QTRH -- are they perhaps a candidate for going private , or maybe a takeover target ?

Q: Could you please comment on TCS and their quarter results?

Q: My daughter just turned 18 and we opened her TFSA account this week. Trying to spark her interest in investing I was screening for some young hip stocks I could put her onto ( gaming, social media, clothing brands, etc) ....saddly in Canada I didn't find anything. So went to my second option which is " work related stocks" which in my case is engineering and my daughter going off to school in the fall in engineering as well. I have owned WSP since before the merger ( Genivar) so done very well. Stantech is your holding in the growth portfolio although I am concerned with the strong run over the past year and a looming ( hopefully shallow) recession that it might not be a great time to get into the name over WSP which has done well but lagged a bit more this year. So WSP or STN for a 30+ yr hold, or look elsewhere short term due to sector risk with the looming slowdown.

Q: your thoughts please on the quarter

thx

Q: Here is a situation which is prevalent in many parts of my portfolio. for example, I have BNS at an average cost on ~$72. It closed yesterday at $64.50. If I go with 'timing the market' I should probably exit the stock. If I go with 'time in the market' I should continue to hold and collect the dividends.
Is there are 'rule' one can use and does that rule vary for large cap stocks like BNS or a small cap stock like PNE which I also own?

Q: Hello 5i team,

There is such a difference in Nuvei’s adjusted and unadjusted financial results. On an adjusted basis it looks like an incredible growth at a VERY price story. Unadjusted with stock compensation doesn’t look close to the same. What are your thoughts on the adjusted and unadjusted results for this story?

Also, do you have any concerns about the adjusted fcf yield that is used to buy back shares that are issued at part of comp and adjusted out, effectively making the story less profitable?

Thank you!

Q: Hi, I think I know all the positives for this company but based on the valuation would you buying right now? How does the current valuation stack up to it’s historical? Or those of their “peers”. I know a long term investor shouldn’t time things, and I hear that sage voice saying buy when others are fearful, it’s just hard for me to pull the trigger (I think I’m one of the fearful ones)

Thanks for your advice.

Q: If they announced earnings can you please review.


Sheldon

Q: For a TFSA if you could pick a few value stocks that have good balance sheets and maybe provide a “margin of safety” if we did have a recession, but also show some promising upside in the medium term if the stars align what would they be? (I’m agnostic on sector and cap size, US or Canada)
Thank you

Q: Any reason for the big price jump in recent two days ? Thanks a lot.

Q: Any reason for the large increase today? I cannot find any news on the stock.
