Q: Hi 5iTeam - I was checking Insider holdings for Kinaxis and noticed a net selling total of $64 1/2 million. The CEO increased his holdings in the summer but the CFO's holdings have steadily declined. Other officers hold close to 0 shares and the holdings of the directors are low. First of all is this information accurate and secondly is it a concern. In summary what is the overall insider holding of Kinaxis.
This question does not include options. Thank you.

Q: Hi team,

With 22 tech stocks weighting some 34% of my portfolio, I assume you would recommend that I rationalize my approach for a better diversification, both in my tech sector and in my portfolio as a whole.

To accomplish that, while keeping a strong growth approach, could you indicate which are, in your view, 1) the « must own » stocks, in order of importance 2) those which could be dropped because of « double emploi » or high risk, 3) those missing to properly cover the tech sector ?

Please feel free to use as many credits as you see fit.

Gratefully yours,

Jacques IDS

Q: You have, in the past, listed about ten companies (including CSU, X, KXS, CAE, BYD, ENB, ADW) that you felt had a unique opportunity to flourish under these special circumstances.
Asking the same question today, what would your updated list look like?

Q: Hi 5iR Team,
Ok, this is a three horse race between KXS, ENGH and GIB. 5iR what do you think the bookies odds are on these horses as they approach the gate. Is one is a dark horse? Will they go neck and neck down to the wire, a photo finish? Perhaps one of them just can't go the distance while another hits their stride? In other words 5iR how do you see the race going and which horse would you bet on to win or is it an each way bet (bet on all three) ? Thanks 5iR Cheers

Q: I try to buy best in breed companies or leaders in each sector/industry with the goal of holding for the long term. With the current sell off in high growth tech stocks my buy price alerts in the above companies are starting to get triggered. During times when we get a market sell off or sector rotation, as we may be getting over the next few days or weeks, I like to only buy one or 2 positions per day in order to keep some powder dry if the sell offs continue. If I don't hold positions in any can you rank in order of what you would buy first to last and please feel free to add other companies to this list you feel are good buys. Thanks for all your help.

Q: Rank the following stocks in which you would own/purchase for growth over next 5 plus years, sector and risk are not a priority.

Also what are you thoughts on recent earnings for RKT and also regarding the billion dollar buyback they announced if yahoo is correct and their float is 112 million (assuming because of IPO lots of stock are in lockup?) with share price of $21.6. That accounts for roughly 41.3 percent of the outstanding shares. Is this a big move for a event ipo... is it bullish?

Q: Hey Team 5i,
I was thinking of asking the same question every quarter: "Taking into account the current investing horizon for the next quarter (Q4 2020), what sectors do you think will thrive and can you give two top Canadian companies that may have the most return potential being ok with small to mid cap companies with good fundamentals.

Q: Good morning. I'm just listening to the Kinaxis Q3 CC with interest. It sounds/feels that the analysts questions and comments are perhaps more concerned with customer retention, or reduced opportunity for growth, than in previous calls? The positive Q3 financials, and company outlook certainly suggest that growth will not be significantly impacted going forward. Assumes major Covid disruption will be avoided. Assume you are listing to the call, do you get the same sense? THx Steve

Q: I recall 5i stating in 2020 that DSG, KXS and PHO, all have no debt and significant cash reserves. Can you recommend 3 other good Canadian and 3 American growth stocks in a similar position.
Thanks you.
