Q: Good afternoon,
I would like your take (pros and cons) on the following please. I have owned Sylogist for some time, am comfortable with SYZ and familiar with it's trading pattern. The position is in my TFSA and after trimming at the top is still at these levels up approx 50% on the balance.
I am thinking of moving it into my cash account and with the current yield treating it like an income stock with some growth potential. I would also top it up SYZ to a 2.5% position.
I would then replace the value in my TFSA when making my 2020 contribution with the intent of purchasing a more “hopefully” growthy”stock.
I hope this is not too much like asking for personal advice.
Thank you for your input.

Q: Hello 5I gang
what are your thoughts on wifi. Very very small, is there anyone else in this space you would look at? Love the technology as we have been hearing about this problem for years. Are they the real thing and should we step in for a long term hold.
thank you for your great service

Q: Understanding that nothing is ever a sure thing given that risk exists, at what price does CSU become too compelling to not buy if you don't currently have a position. It seems to have broken it's upward trend line which concerns me and I'm wondering if you can confirm that technical assumption and then give an opinion on whether or not to disregard and buy anyway.

Thanks!

Q: Hello Peter and Team,

Cloudera just had another earnings beat quarter. Do you think that this may be a good buying opportunity, now that the buyout of Hortonworks appears to be integrated and the chart is starting to move in the right direction? Relative to other cloud companies, doesn't it seem inexpensive?

Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i team,

Can you please comment on Tecsys recent quarter? It seems to be a good quarter ...but is it just a one of?
Their transition to a SaaS model looks to be paying off and results may be more consistent going forward wrt revenues and profit.
Reviewing some of the prior Q&A, you had been luke warm on this company based on missing quarterly expectations and slower growth vs other similar tech companies.
Looking at their Key Ratios (provided on your your site), they appear uninspiring. However I note a huge jump in Consensus EPS Estimates between FY20 and FY21...like sixfold, ie .06 to .36 cents. All based on 4 analysts with a strong buy - moderate buy tilt. Is the analysts expectation a little to rosy?

Based on their (positive) quarterly results, could one dip their toes into this now and start a half position? I also note they just increased their dividend as per the quarterly results. It has provided a very good return over 1, 3 and 5 years...but so have DSG and KXS (which I already own).

Cheers,
Steve

Q: Hello, I saw on BNN an interesting interview with Coveo's CEO. Here is the link: https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/video/i-hope-coveo-becomes-a-shopify-coveo-ceo~1823324
Question: My understanding is that the CEO doesn't feel the need to go public right now because they already have plenty of financing from private investors. He says that Coveo has the potential to be the next Shopify. This is quite significant. By the way the president of LSPD sits on the board of Coveo. Based on your experience, do you think Coveo could become public within the next year? What do you think of this company? Thanks, Gervais

Q: Quarterhill has decided to discontinue their listing on the Nasdaq... they have indicated that this will save them about $1,000,000. annually.
Was the U.S. listing that beneficial to them and do you believe that this will affect their long term growth opportunities? Also, have you heard of any rumbling in the market place regarding their lawsuit with Apple?
