Q: Happy New Year to the 5i crew. A question regarding EXLS, it's had a very nice climb since early 2020 and has more than tripled. The PB and PS look reasonable for a growth company but the PCF looks quite high. Is there more gas in the tank over the next 1-2 years?

Q: Thoughts on Mara as an investment? Crypto could be poised for a bounce here. I’m not thinking Long term with this company though.
Have insiders been buying/selling?

Q: Thanks to the 5i team for all the great work amongst a very tough 2022! I wish you and yours all the very best for the new year.

I really appreciated and learnt a lot from the various indices/metrics that you used in your market update emails, especially circling back in the most recent one to update the trends. Looking at the various indexes you explored last year, it made me wonder if there was an index or metric that tracked digital advertising to look at trends through time (e.g., have things bottomed and more are spending on digital advertising). As a holder of companies like Google, Digital Turbine, and The Trading Desk, I am interested to know if there is an index/metric out there to follow trends in digital advertising. If there is, could you use it to suggest what the general status of digital advertising is and how it might help inform adding to positions of GOOG, APPS, TTD, and others (if you have higher conviction names to suggest).

Thanks so much for all you do and wishing everyone a strong investment year in 2023.

Q: Your thoughts on AFRM? Would you put some money to work here if you assume the Fed 'pauses' in a couple of months?

As alway, thanks for your great input.

Q: HI Peter and Team,

Any thoughts on what is causing CF industries to get smashed the last few weeks? It's down something like 20% since mid-December or so.

Q: Over the past two years with the downturn of the market, I am down significantly with majority of these holdings in various accounts. I have a long-term 10+ year outlook, so looking to see if you feel any of these can be sold off given the outlook, management of the company? If so, what are your recommendations for a growth investor in either CAD/US stock options?

Thanks!!

Q: Hi Peter, following the merger of MNRL and STR we now own STR. Please offer your opinion of the combined company and whether you would continue to hold. Is there an alternative you like better ? All the Best to you your 5i staff and to all the members here for a prosperous and Happy 2023. Paul

Q: what is the best stock for a.i. investing in?

Q: Would you recommend investments that invest in shares if individual art? Any in particular?

Q: This US REIT has been beaten and sits near its 2022 low with a healthy divvy. It holds quality medical offices located near hospitals which should provide it with some pricing power with doctors wanting to locate close to where they perform surgeries. Is the dividend safe? How would you categorize their debt? Is this one you'd recommend or avoid? Any other concerns? Lastly how does this compare with MPW? Appreciate your views.

Q: I read most of the questions and people asking for the top stocks that are going to do well over the next year or two. Four that are mentioned more than once are FIVE, CVRX, CELH and CPRX. In the case of CVRX, I have a about a 25% profit in less than 2 months. Do you think it has more room to run? Is there anything to worry about the other 3. I have CELH as well which seems to be very volatile. Again, much appreciated.
