Q: Hello 5i Team,
I have been contemplating selling my PKI shares and putting the proceeds into CNQ to boost my dividend income in a non-registered account. Two questions: First, do you think this is a good swap based on the fundamentals/growth prospects of each company? Second, given yesterday's news regarding Simpson Oil's legal victory, should I wait to see if the rally in PKI's share price continues? Current market cap of PKI is $6.5B, but apparently PKI turned down an offer to buy the company last summer which would have valued the company at $8B. If another offer comes forward from Simpson following this legal victory, I'm thinking there may be significant more upside in the share price (the 52-week high for PKI is around $48). Your thoughts on selling PKI now vs. waiting?
Much appreciated,
Brian

Q: Could you explain today’s press release in layman’s terms,are they headed for a strategic review and does this give them a tailwind,basically your thoughts on this announcement would you buy here for a 1-2 year hold thank you

Q: Hi, could you please rate these companies for a riff account. My goal would be dividend, growth and stability in down market. I have money for one company. (Would buying U.S. be beneficial?)
Fell free to add your favourite stock for my goals.

Q: Hi 5i Team,

I'm looking at some of my losers and pondering either getting rid of the or adding to them.

DHT.UN, HMM, OTXT, TSU

With some room freed up I was thinking of starting positions in PKI and DSG

What are your thoughts on the 4 stocks I'm down on? Would you add to any of them or look to sell for better opportunities? How would you rank them if you were to sell?

What are your thoughts on DSG and PKI? Do you view them as buyable now for 5-10 year holds?

This is in a TFSA which aims to balance growth and income.

Thanks for the Great Service!

Colin

Q: Interesting comments in your latest Market Update about small caps. In addition to any potential upside in 2025, we are close to the possible annual January “bounce”. If you had to pick 5 (ranked) Canadian small caps to take advantage, which 5 equities would you lean towards? Also, is there an ideal ETF that would cover all the small cap basics? (2 questions)
On another note, long time member here who is extremely grateful for the outstanding service you provide. I’ve listened attentively, learned a lot, and have been blessed with some lucrative decisions, always guided by your sage wisdom. For that I offer a heartfelt thank you, and wish all at 5i a wonderful Christmas and another prosperous 2025!

Q: Another Canadian company (KUT.v) taken private.

Looking in to your crystal ball, over the next 1-3 years what are some other Canadian companies that you consider prime candidates to be acquired?

Q: Magna, Parkland, and Premium Brands have seen significant declines, making them look like attractive dividend stocks with yields around 4%. What do you think about buying them for their dividends? Is there a risk that these stocks could fall further? Which one would be the best to buy for its dividend and potential recovery, and which one should I avoid? Please rank them.

Q: Parkland was once your favorite stock. With the recent price drop, it now offers a 4.39% dividend yield. Do you think the stock has the potential to rebound and remain a good dividend investment? I appreciate your insights.

Q: Hi 5i Team,
Pls comment on Parkland Corp. earning report.
Buy , hold or sell?

Thanks!

Q: Hello 5i team,
Welcome your feedback on PKI vs. CNQ and ATD moving forward? I've held PKI on and off for 11 years. I'm sitting with a 9.4% per annum total return and a 25% cap gain on cost. Plenty of drama between hostile shareholders and board. Shares appear dramatically undervalued. When comparing to CNQ and ATD (also holding) I'm considering abandoning PKI and investing proceeds into more CNQ and ATD. Pay the tax and move on reluctantly... Can you share your thoughts on this notional transaction vs. holding on to PKI while still quite "undervalued" to wait/see how the drama plays out or just move on? Thanks for your opinion and all you do.

Q: Were the earnings good enough to get this stock moving? They did miss.

Q: Hi,
