Q: I purchased TFI INTERNATIONAL and ATS AUTOMATION TOOLING in October 2021.

My returns until today are as follows:

TFI INTERNATIONAL is down 4%
ATS AUTOMATION TOOLING is down 14%

Each of the above holdings are only 3% of my Portfolio and therefore I am able to add. Right now, more than 20% of my Portfolio is in cash.

Which of the above would you recommend that I add to based on today's price, and your reasons.

Q: I have been looking at recommendations in the questions and have picked the companies listed above to look into.
Without considering sector diversification, would you say each of these individually are strong companies to invest in, or would you separate these into different tiers?
In what order would you take a position in these stocks if you were to invest today? (e.g. may want to wait until prices for growth stocks like TIXT/TSU stabilize)
Also please provide suggested entry prices for each.

Q: The above stocks all seem to be pretty good value, do you agree? How do you see the next 6-12 months for them? Should I consider certain growth stocks at this point instead?

Thanks,

Q: Hi Peter and team, I don't hold any of the above stocks and they have done very well the last 2 years. I do own some of your favorites like BAM, TOI, CUS, SHOP and LSPD etc. How would you rank the above stocks and would they be good buy when the dust finally settles.

Regards

Q: I hold the se three in my TFSA and each has a profit, though a lot less than it was.
Taking into consideration I am creeping up on 73 years old would it be wise to take my profits now or wait for them to rebound some.

Q: I hold the above stocks as the industrial portion of my portfolio. I try to keep my portfolio under 28 stocks and your recent comments on your "cooling" to SIS has me contemplating a change. I am trying to decide if I am best served from a diversification standpoint to go with TFII (or too much like CNR?), go with a more of a manufacturing name (ATA, TT), sell SIS and spread the proceeds among the three remaining stocks or as another alternative, might you even consider selling CNR and SIS and replacing both with the names I have suggested (or any others you might add).

Appreciate your insight.

Q: I have 6K in my TFSA that I’d like to deploy. Presently the TFSA contains the following names and the weight for each one of my TOTAL portfolio (Margin+TFSA+RRSP).

EGLX 0.87%
GSY 3.75%
LSPD 1.62%
MG 5.41%
NTR 6.26%
SHOP 2.05%
WELL 1.94%
NVDA 3.42%
PLTR 1.33%
PINS 0.53%
TFII 5.74%
U 2.29%

Should I sell EGLX and PINS since they have dropped below 1% of the portfolio?
Should I add to one, two or three of these names? If so in what order of preference?
Or should I go with another suggestion? If you can list 5 in order of preference.
Any sector CDN or USA.
I will not need the cash for another 8-10 years minimum.
Thanks for all you do.

Q: This is a follow-up to our question from last week (see: https://www.5iresearch.ca/questions/140708).

Based on your response that nothing in the list gives you much cause for concern, we would understand this to imply none of the 30 stocks would be considered a "sell" today.

Please divide the 30 stocks into a pair of ranked (best to worst) lists, one of "buys" and the other of "holds". As well, for each of the "holds" indicate the principal rationale for caution.
