Q: I've been looking to add some high growth, low beta U.S. stocks to my portfolio. Some stocks that I screened are TYL, MANH, ABMD and VASC. Given their valuations, do you think these stocks look buyable?

Q: Hello 5i Team,

The only US company I currently own is Boeing, and I would like to diversify with 1-2 more names. I know you don't formally cover US stocks, but I've been looking at Time Warner, Priceline, and Toll Brothers. Which would you recommend? Are there any others you would pick over those for a combination of growth and stability. I'd like to stay away from volatile small caps.

Thanks,

Jordan

Q: Can you give me your thoughts on the outlook for this company going forward?

Q: Good morning,

Knowing you do not cover US stocks, what are your thoughts on the company slashing their forward profit and revenue forecast and its sales miss (3rd quarter in a row).
Would this be a good entry point or is it a catching a falling knife. Realizing the biotech sector is a risky one, but Biogen seems to have little debt and it is well diversified.
Thank you.

Q: Hi Peter and Team!!! It gearing up for a great weekend weather wise, Yay! I have 16,000 to deploy in my RRSP. I would like to buy one or two ETFs that cover the US market, broadly and perhaps dividend aristocrats. VUN and VGG...are in Canadian funds. I would like the equivalent listed in US dollars, paying out in US dollars as well. I asked my investment advisor, and she could not give me any alternatives except for the SPY. Could you suggest some ? And on that topic, is it a good idea to hold another currency (in this case US dollars) in the RRSP, or just have an ETF representing the US market in Canadian funds? Thank you, and have a great weekend!! Cheers, Tamara

Q: I appreciate that this is a US holding and brand new, but just wanted to get your thoughts on its potential. Cyber security is getting a lot of press these days and I do not see this changing anytime soon. Is there any other ETF out there that does the same thing but with a lower MER?

Great job 5I Team and thanks.

Q: Can you please take a look at this company. Could you tell me what your views are based on the most recent contracts awarded and the backlog. Looking at the charts and financials this company looks less expensive than many other in the sector. If the current price looks expensive to you, could you share what metrics you would look at for selecting a purchase price. Thank you Jason N.

Q: UA recently posted earnings of $0.12 per share (down 14%)and revenues that were up 27% both on a 6 month basis. Guidance is that revenues for this year (2015) should grow 25% and operating income 14-15%. Last year earnings for the year were 0.95 so making a big assumption that EPS will grow also at 14% puts their P/E ratio at about $95/(0.95 x 1.14) ~ 88 !! Seems crazy high to me considering the stock is up over 7% today on the news. Am I looking at this right or is there some hidden value I'm not seeing? Thanks for your help as always.
