Investment Q&A

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

Q: i own 5000 magt shares and they have been a rocket ship on no news whatsoever.i have been slowly selling, now own 3000.
the fact is there are only a million shares available for trading out of 10 million outstanding.
my thesis is the main reason it has risen so much is very few shares available.
its in a hot space but it is not yet crowdstrike or zscaler -far from it.
and a fund raise has to be coming, same for nuvei.
can you comment.

Q: Good afternoon, I have a 33% equal split of KXS,CJT and BAM, within a TFSA. I had a good run twice with KXS over the past couple of years, and suspect it may be topping out shortly. Would you consider a switch to TOI to be a sound move. This is a growth portfolio.
Thanks for your always sound advice, Steve.

Q: Hi Peter and Team
I have followed 5i and my well diversified RRIF now has >20% Tech due to the growth of the 4 companies held. Until recently, only KXS was in the Red but now all 4 look great. Would you consider any for trimming back to keep sector less than 15% and where else should one go for any buy and hold at this record levels ?
Thanks for all the expert guidance!

Q: What are your thoughts on MSFT, specifically their cloud computing sector of their business? I would assume that in the long run, eventually every company will be operating on the cloud. Seems like it's AMZN, MSFT and GOOG as the big 3. Does anything have a competitive advantage in this space at this time?
Thanks for all your great insights.

Q: Hi, These stocks have been on a tear recently, specially NVEI, and the guess is, with no specific news. The momentum has simply been Amazing !!! We have no immediate plans to add to or 5-6% position in each. But if we do, does it make sense ? Would you wait for share prices to settle and what would be a decent buy price for each ? Also could you prioritize them in order of current valuation vs growth prospects. Thank You

Q: I was looking at a list of your past picks that haven't been mentioned for awhile but they seem to be doing quite well. In fact, they have as good a track record as some of the US stocks you mentioned recently. Mastercard which I own is under water over the past year, I am thinking of selling it and the above 2 look like good replacements. Preferably, ZS. Do you still pay attention to these 2?

Q: Over the last couple of months a lot of Canadian tech stocks have seen huge gains in a very short time.

CSU from $1,730 to $2,130
DCBO from $65 to $104;
DSG from $70 to $97;
KXS from $135 to $199;
LSPD from $85 to $131;
MAGT from $26 to $55;
NVEI from $100 to $161;
TOI from $80 to $125.

1) Do you think this is getting overdone and are we due for some kind of correction in this sector?

2) Are any of the above still good buys after these large, rapid price increases?

3) Are there any Canadian tech stocks that have "missed the party" so to speak, haven't seen large rapid price increases like those above, and are good buys currently?

Thanks.
