Q: Hi 5i team,

There hasn’t been a question on DOCU in many months. I know it is expensive on many metrics but that is the same with many tech stocks. Even in the past two weeks, with the market turmoil over the coronavirus, I have noticed that DOCU keeps making new highs. As you know, DOCU’s core product is the ability to sign all business, legal and real estate documents electronically. There is no need to meet with another human being, be in the same room with them and breathe their air. We can all just live in a bubble. I know I am going over the top here, but what are your current thoughts on DOCU? I have not seen any recent news. It is also one I follow for its takeover prospects by a big tech company.

Thanks again.
Dave

Q: Own a bunch of the 5i favourites outside of the above. Building up cash to deploy in a TFSA. Thoughts on these for the long run and buying today? I like the CDN names as you have reports on them and it give a bit more confidence in the name. I do own KXS and was wondering if there is overlap with DSG?

Q: Re: "Baby Brother Strategy"
I read PH's FP article of 06/20/19 as it echoed my own thoughts about AT (though I do not pretend to possess the same analytical tools).
Could you elaborate further on that idea? I was also wondering if you can speak to programmatic advertising and if AT has any competitive advantages or moats or is it simply going head to head with TTD and others? Thank you.

Q: What are your thoughts about Facebook going forward? Worth holding or are there better growth stocks out there? If better growth stocks please name a few you would prefer. Risk level not a factor.

I would like to see dollar value change in portfolios in portfolio analytics rather then just percentage if you are considering making changes.

Thanks

Q: Hello,
From my observed reduction of the availability of family doctors, and subsequent basic health care, for some/many? segments of the Canadian population I see the emergence of different schemes of virtual, remote, telephone, etc services. Outside of the public funded/regulated scope this appears to be a fragmented industry ripe for some form of consolidation. Are you aware of any blue chip type companies making any moves either in Canada or elsewhere to fill this growing gap?

Thank you for your always refreshing feedback.

Q: I have both MPC and VLO. I understand that VLO is purely a refiner and not hostage to world oil prices, but MPC does have some exploration and production assets.
1. Is my understanding correct?
2. If yes, to what extent are MPC’s earnings and cash flow DEPENDANT on oil prices? I am trying to assess the extent to which MPC’s prospects are completely out of MPC’s control.
3. Are dividends well covered?
4. Is interest coverage adequate?
5. Based on your view of each of these company’s prospects going forward, is each of these companies worth holding?
6. You previously (Maureen December 9) you identified MPC as a beneficiary of the new rule requiring ships to use more refined oil. Is VLO also a beneficiary?
