Investment Q&A

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

Q: Orion Energy Systems, Inc. seems to be on a remarkable run lately. Do you discern any characteristics that would make it any more than a speculative short-term hold?

Q: We are looking for a US Industrial to add into a portfolio for my daughter who is 21 years old. We have followed your balanced portfolio and she owns SIS, WSP, CAE and TFII. We are currently considering Systemax SYX which just reported good earnings and has jumped in price. I know it is a company that you do not follow closely but would it be a decent addition in the industrial space for a long term investor early in their investing “career”?

Q: In your opinion, how does OSTK fair in comparison to its competitors? Their last two quarters seemed great and their business has some diversity with the blockchain wing. And yet, their stock has been punished quite heavily as part of the broader market sell off. Would you consider it a "buy" at these levels? Thanks.

Q: HI 5i Team,
In my USD account I hold REGN and ABBV @ 3.5%. I am considering adding ALXN growth. What is your opinion of this stock? If not this then any alternative? Dividends are not a priority.
Over the last 3 year of my membership, have immensely benefitted from your advice. Keep up the good work.

Q: As a general preamble, I notice that, given the recent dip, a surprising number of companies have stalled over a 2, 3 or 4 month periods. SHOP has done nothing since late June, AAPL since early August. Aside from gyrating do you consider this sideways movement the equivalent of a re-valuation? Would you recommend buying companies such as these, that also have good recent earnings reports and outlooks? And can you comment on these two specifically? If you can add any other names to this list I would appreciate it. Thank-you.

Q: The company will have slower revenue growth and profitability for the next 1 year or so as they transition their customers to the cloud. Short term pain for long term gain, at least thats their expectation. Still highly profitable, over 2B cash in the bank and investing heavily in their business. Would you suggest holding through this transition, stepping aside for a few quarters or using this as an opportunity to bulk up a long term position?

Thanks.

Q: Hi,
is the current debt level for ABBV to risky in the current economic environment or is the projected cash flow enough to reduce this risk? Might this cause dividend increases in the future not to happen?
In some of your answers to questions from members regarding health care stocks in the US, you often mention the election as a possible concern. Could you expand on this please? I assume you mean that one party is better than the other for this sector.
Thanks,
Dan
