Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hi All, I have a 30 yr old son who is very bullish on cryptocurrency. He is quite excited about a new product, similar to "acorn" which I believe operates as a trading platform in the form of a downloadable app., and allows trade, buy, sell crypto with ease. I think I know your answer, but what do you think of investing in this idea? Is there an existing platform?
2nd question - What can you tell me about Clovyr? Does it trade on the TSX or DOW?
Thank you! The 5i team has helped me invest wisely over the years, and sleep well at night. I appreciate your research and members questions.

Q: Good day,
You had a fairly neutral comment on ZEBRA (ZBRA) two years ago. Has your view changed since then ?
It seems difficult to find interesting stock (high potential growth, reasonably secure) in the industrial sector now. Would AVAV, BOOM, NSP, NVEE be good choices or what else you recommend ?

Many many thanks,

JD

Q: Hi !

I invest mostly in growth stocks but with 28% of my portfolio in tech, I may be overloaded in this sector. My present holdings are: CSU (2.7%) PHO (2.5%) KXS (3.2%) SHOP (3.5%) ADBE (3.1%) FB (2.7%) GOOG (2.6%) MU (1.8%) NVDA (2.2%) SQ (3.%). If I were to reduce the number of holdings as well as my tech %, on which stocks would you suggest to concentrate, identifying those with most growth potential and those more risky ? Are there any other stocks better suited to my goal ? Or should I stay the course here ?
Thank you for your good attention,
JD

Q: CDAY has been on my radar since the IPO. I know that Lululemon uses the"dayforce" software for managing employee scheduling and forecasting labour needs. How long would you usually allow a company to trade after an IPO before getting interested. Where did the IPO come out and what do you think of the current valuation and future growth potential. What is your opinion of the balance sheet.

Thanks team,

Q: Good Morning Team,

Thank you for your helpful insights as always!

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
I have been following this company for some time as a more contrarian play. I realize the company is in transition with new directions, executive personnel and that the last quarter was a big miss. So today they hit a new annual low. Your thoughts please. Does this price seem like a good entry point or is more patiences required. On the other hand am I just looking for trouble? Ha! Ha!
With respect and thanks...
Ernest
