Q: Hi 5i Team,

Out of this basket of US small caps would you be able to rank these from best to worst for an investment? No need to provide details about what each company does but purely a ranking and whether there are any that you would stay away from.

Thanks as always,
Jon

Q: Hi 5i, wondering what you think of Edison International today and what are the other professionals thinking. Are they going to cut the dividend if so by how much(guestimate)? Maybe they will eliminate the dividend what is the estimated odds of that? The horrific fires haven't been that long ago but enough time i think that it may be time to enter into a position.

Q: Dear 5i
Could you please rank the above listed stocks from best ie most likely to be worth a lot more after 3-4 years to the least best ie more likely to not do as well over the same 3-4 year time period . I'm also assuming that when i say best i mean companys that not only have great growth profiles but also have descent management and solid products and /or services that will likely remain in high demand for years to come .
Thanks once again

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: Hello, for a 25 year old with $ 500.00 to invest in the TFSA, which of the above would you suggest?
Also, how about for a 27 year old with $ 100K, which one(s) would you suggest? Finally, does BMO have a S&P500 unhedged?
As a quick calculation the Unedged has retuned ~ 6% more with BMO (ZQQ /ZNQ) and ~ 12% with the ishare ( XQQ/XQQU). Right?
Thanks

Q: Can you comment on UBER earnings, their forward guidance and US currency headwinds, and the perceived battle with TSLA's robotaxis.

Uber stock price has been flat for a year now - is it undervalued? The market seems to pricing in nothing less than solid earnings and guidance beats, is this a sign that the market considers large cap US stocks to be grossly overvalued in general, and anything less than perfection will result in a sell off?
