Investment Q&A

Q: Topicus is reaching all time highs. Any thoughts as to why?

Q: All OK with COHR? The market seems to like the latest results posted last night. Any red flags? I'm a "Buy and Hold" investor and I'm not overweight in COHR so I'm just planning to do nothing! I don't think Mr. Trump's tariffs will be an issue with this company and COHR don't seem to be to be overly reliant on AI spending. Any comments you have would be appreciated.

Q: Would you see this recent weakness as a buying opportunity,I didn’t think the quarter was that bad,what are your thoughts on the company as far as debt growth and management for a 2-3 year hold
Thank you

Q: I have partial positions in both and ask whether you would consolidate - which one would you prefer - and just as importantly, would you prefer another to these [sell both for a better opportunity at today's prices] for 2+ year hold.

Q: Celestica had a nice day yesterday on upgrades - and is now down over 10% today. What gives? Surely the CEO selling some of his shares doesn't cause the stock to drop by more than 10% in a day?

Q: Hi Team,
With HPS.A struggling to catch a bid lately, would you think selling the stock to buy CLS is a good move long term? Is the movement in CLS share price sustainable? Or should more patience be applied here to HPS.A?

Thanks,
Shane.

Q: Can you comment on the major share sales of the insiders. I know the stock has gone up a lot so their overall exposure is up and some selling is warranted, but does this concern you at all? Some of the insiders after these sales, no longer have direct ownership of CLS shares, although I'm sure they have many options.

What would be a good entry price for this? Thanks!

Q: Hi, what are your most recent thoughts on DTOL in general? Thank you.

Q: Hi,

I've been in and out of GOOG many times over the years, and love their products. Recently I've been more and more interested in the robo-taxi development and really think there could be something there, but I'm admittedly not so up to speed. I know TSLA is on to something, but I just can't get behind that one...

Can you drop the Coles notes on Googles WAYMO division and your thoughts on their position in this space, and how their tech compares to others in the space as far as how far along they are in going commercial?

Thx,

Cam.

Q: Hi 5i
How were Lspd earnings?
What were the results of the completed strategic review? Sounds like the search for a buyer was unsuccessful….
How does 5i view the future prospects going forward for lightspeed … currently hold small position… would 5i sell or continue to hold .
If sell what would you recommend in similar space.
Thx

Q: I am Wondering what 5i has to say about Netflix at this time.

Q: What would be your pick right now for a tech stock for the long-term in a RRSP (3+ years)? Can you provide a few names in order of preference?

Q: Would you consider replacing NVDA with CLS for more stable long term growth? If so what difference does it make to buy on the TSX vrs. the NYSE?

Thank you,

Q: Hi 5i Team - Constellation Software is a company that has never issued shares beyond their initial IPO. I'm pretty sure this applies to LMN and TOI as well but could you confirm. In all three, is there any possibility of them issuing more shares in the future.
Also could you name a few other companies that have never issued shares, Canadian, U.S., any size market cap, any sector.
Thanks.

Q: With Today's announcement, Topicus.com made a deal to acquire additional shares and will now own 24.84% of issued share capital of Asseco Poland (subject to regulatory approvals) for a total cost of US$438 Mln.

Asseco operates with a similar model as Topicus and primarily targets the healthcare, financial services and public institutions verticals, as well as the energy and telecommunications verticals.

Topicus has also committed to not increasing its stake beyond a maximum of 27.96%.

Question:

1. What are your thoughts on this investment/acquisition towards adding long term value and ROC to Topicus shareholders ?

2. Being a large acquisition, how do you believe, Topicus will finance it - from existing cash or there is a possibility of a rights issue of some nature ?

Thank You

Q: Hi can you please rank in order from best to least for the following FAANG + NVDA stocks for the next +5 years? An explanation why is much appreciated along with a management rating for each. Thank you

Q: I'm recently down fast with MDA and I know why. Will it turn around or should I invest the money elsewhere. Thanks

Q: Celestica- I added a half position last week at $90.10. It’s run back up to $139.50 making it a 3/4 position.. great timing so thank you for the additional insights. My question.. let the winner run seems obvious but do you top it up here or wait for a consolidation. If wait, do you think adding to CRM today makes sense - 1/4 position currently.

Thanks

Q: Could you recommend five companies that could benefit from the advancement of robotics?

Q: My grandson is looking to buy Toi, and since it has taken off recently, what would be a good entry point now? Thanks for your over the top service
