Investment Q&A

Q: I currently have a portfolio with these six holdings. What would be your current top 5-10 Cdn and/or US buys to diversify the portfolio and put a large cash balance to work for a 5-10 year time horizon with total return as the primary objective

Q: Hi

I'm confused. I have chosen two of several alerts I received on DOO.

TD: Analyst Brian Morrison lowered his price target on shares of the Canadian recreational vehicle manufacturer to $100 from $135 following its Q1 results for fiscal 2024 on Thursday. "It is our view that management is excelling at items within its control in a challenging environment, but that macroeconomic headwinds may linger and potentially intensify, thereby clouding earnings visibility," Morrison said in a note to clients.

National Bank is maintianing its Outperform rating and $143 price target. "We concede that BRP shares could remain in check due to ongoing economic uncertainty, but we believe that BRP will continue to gain market share in the coming years as it aggressively invests in new products."

Hold or Sell?

Carl

Q: If one was willing to accept the smaller cap size risk and the much lower yield, could you endorse a switch from MG to DOO to stay (technically at least) in the same sector in the hopes of realizing a higher total return in the long run (5-10 years)? When I look at the history, Magna is about where it was 7 or 8 years ago, and DOO is up about 4 fold. I realize the past doesn’t predict the future, but still…..

Q: Gentlemen

BRP reported earning today, can I have your opinion on the report?

Q: Which stocks are cheap and buyable Can be trade or long term hold.

Q: Looking for some companies that offer the opportunity for short term trading (decent sized price swings) but have the fallback of being a solid long term holding (income, long term growth potential)...should I find myself in a loss position for a while

Q: Someone recently asked for a recommendation for some Consumer discretionary investments. You provided a couple of names, but not DOO. Has the shine come off for you? In any event, what is your current view? Buy, sell, or hold? And why?

Many thanks for your excellent service.

Q: Hi All at 5i!!
I know it is comparing apples to oranges, but which of these two has a greater chance of solid short term growth ?
Cheers,
Tamara

Q: I hold the following companies in my consumer cyclical and defensive part of portfolio.

Cyclical:

AirBnb
Aritzia
DOO
MED
SBUX

Defensive:
COST


I’m thinking of selling MED and adding to the balance of my cyclical positions. What are your thoughts on this portfolio of companies and which ones look most attractive today to add to?

For defensive, I only hold Costco. What companies would you suggest I look to diversify my defensive portfolio?

Thanks
Greg

Q: Of the consumer cyclicals held are there any you would sell? Any you would add to? And, do you have other Canadian or US names you would suggest looking into at this time?

5+ years timeframe, high risk, growth-focused in a TFSA.

MG (-30%)
LNF (-22%)

Thank you!

Q: Hi 5i,

Pretty sure I know your answer based on past questions, but I have so many questions to use from being a long time satified member.

Would you swap MG for DOO? Please provide some comparison metrics for the next 3 to 5 years to justify switch.

Again, using same question above, compare a BNS to TD switch.

Thanks again for your valuable insights over the past several years!

Q: Hello Peter,

I have shortlisted 5 stocks for a new position in TFSA of my wife and mine. I am thinking of 3 full positions or I could divide amongst 4. Could you help me eliminate one from my list and would appreciate if you could rank the other 4 in order of our preference - best first?
Thank you for your help.
Regards
Rajiv
