Investment Q&A

Q: I am interested in starting a position in 1 or 2 of the companies addressed. PINS was at the top of my list but I’m uncertain if I’ve missed my opportunity after their impressive earnings report. Can you please rank these companies in order of growth potential for the rest of the year / best value at today’s prices.
Thank you.

Q: How do the above two 3D print companies compare? Do you feel the 3D print sector is becoming a better area for investment after past hype? Is the industry experiencing higher, more stable growth than in the past? Any other companies you like in this sector. Dm for example.
Regards Greg

Q: Can you please comment on earnings. Is it still a buy or rather a hold.
If you have a more compelling idea, I am open to suggestions.
Thank you.

Q: HI 5i Team. I really appreciate your comments that speak to opportunities/areas or perhaps "themes" where you currently see good growth opportunities now and in the coming years. Some commentators have pointed to themes such as EV and materials that support EV, clean tech generally, changes in healthcare, etc. What would you consider to be some of the better investing themes right now (say 3 or 4?) and what would some of your suggestions right now for some good Canadian and good US stock selections within each, with growth in mind over a roughly 5 year horizon in a TFSA. I already have positions in LSPD, WELL, XBC and QST, and I plan to acquire AZT next. So I would be interested in hearing about your ideas and suggestions that might provide some additional diversification into other areas. Thanks very much - take as many question credits as necessary.

Q: First off: great talk this morning on the Money Show!

Can you comment on ABBV report from this morning. What did you like? Anything that you did not like. Would you recommend adding to a half position?

Thanks you so much for all that you do.

Q: Which of these businesses do believe has the better long term growth opportunity?
Thanks

Q: Hi guys,
Is it too late to jump onto this rocket ship (sava) or does it have something behind it? Could it might be another gme?
Thanks

Q: If an investor is expecting a potential 10% market pullback in the coming weeks and they want to "partially" hedge their portfolio without selling or shorting their holdings, what percentage of an inverse ETF like PSQ would you recommend holding versus the value of their long position? In other words, in a $1,500,000 portfolio, what dollar amount would you hold in PSQ shares? Thank you!!

Q: My advisor has suggested I average down buy these two stocks PEP and K (underwater on both). I'm hesitant to proceed that way and would rather look at consumer discretionary ideas with more growth. What would you suggest? I consider myself an aggressive investor. Looking for a 2-3 year hold.

Thanks, as always for th great advise.

Q: Seems like the stock is going to open much lower in reaction to their latest quarter. May you please comment on their quarter and is it a good entry point? I already hold some NVDA per your strong recommendation, but if I wanted to diversify in the sector.. would QCOM be your second recommendation as of today? Thank you !

Q: Hello Peter, with Alphabet's huge cash hoard and pressure on the company to control expenses, do you expect they might institute a dividend soon? Should they? Would the market reward that decision with a price increase, do you think?
Also, despite paying a premium of several extra dollars when I bought GOOGL (not GOOG) several years ago, I'm chagrined to see that my GOOGL shares now trade at several dollars less. Given that the GOOGL shares have voting rights that the GOOGs don't, I'm a bit puzzled. Do you think the old premium will return at some point?

Q: Hello 5i Team,
I have a couple questions where I'd appreciate your expertise.
First, I've been holding BRK.B long term, and even after shaving my position last year, and the year before, due to its performance, it's currently 28% of my total non-registered portfolio. I'd appreciate your thoughts on whether I should continue to pare down my position (it's up 170% at present).
Second, I would like to add some international equities to my overall portfolio. As Scotia iTrade is limited to US and Canada, can you recommend a solid, and cost-effective online brokerage for global markets?
Thank you! Aaron

Q: Going through the ETF section but can’t find which etf would be invested in square, PayPal and the fang stocks. Can you direct me to a few to research.

Q: VXRT No news about this, but opened at $14 yesterday and closed at $23.....now down to $12??? Why the volatility?
Thanks so much!

Q: Would you consider PEP a re-opening security? It reports on February 11, 2021 . Do you expect performance above consensus?
Do you have Forward P/E and PEG? I have PEG at 6.6 . But ROE *seems* over 50% . Is that the correct correct ROE? If yes, PEG at 6.6 does not look right.
Analysts are awfully lukewarm on the business. Is PEP worth holding on to if one is looking for for both modest growth, and dividend, or do you expect PEP to act more like a bond going forward?

Q: Hi Guys,

Your thoughts on this company (Dtil) inside of a tfsa.

NOT a full position to start with, just a taste!

Thanks,

Jim

Q: I am a longterm holder in GPN wondering if it is time to gradually move on within the electronic payments space. Perhaps recent performance is just a stall from frothy heights or are they being pushed out by new entrants? Is GPN still the payments processor for some of the new service providers? I am not looking to jump on the fastest horse more looking for a reasonable expection of steady growth. GPN appears to have low recent growth, low ROE yet good margins. I also own Visa, Paypal and Ipay.

Thanks for your service, stay safe

Darrell

Q: Hi there, wondering about your thoughts on the potential for MSGE and when you think it's business' will really get moving? If that's in six months or so perhaps it's a buy now?

thx, Mark

Q: U want some exposure in the cyber security area, Which ft these two ETFs do you prefer? Or, would you suggest a single stock as a better option? Thanks
