Investment Q&A

Q: Hi can you please provide an updated opinion on KVYO now that the ipo sizzle has subsided a bit? I'm intrigued that Shopify invested heavily in it.

Q: For a TFSA account. Only interested in best growth prospects over 3-5 years. Please rate these by your preference at this point. Thank you.

Q: I have contribution room of $17000, for 2024 due to a cash withdrawal of $10,000 in late 2023. I would like to move the largest portion of this years contribution from my RRIF withdrawal for 2024 with stocks that have performed well over the past, these include, ,topicus, goeasy, first service, wsp, BNS, Td, TFI Int., Almentation couch Tard and Shopify.
At the moment I am looking for an outside opinion from 5i, on the best most profitable to fill my 2024 contribution.
Looking forward to your response.
Rick

Q: I am interested in buying the following stocks. What would be your 1st to 7th order in buying? Also what would your entry price be for each one.

Q: I realize it's a very short time frame, but do you think Lumine would have more upside potential than Shopify over a six-minth period, thanks?

Q: Hi, Large Cap Tech stocks in US started the new year with a sharp pull back.
In Canada, Shopify was the one which followed the trend with 6-7% drop. Constellation Software was largely unchanged and Lumine is consolidating from recent sharp gains. We hold all above stocks in our Non-Regd as well as TFSA accounts. There is about $80k TFSA Contribution room available, due to withdrawls made last year. We are considering In-Kind contributions to add to our TFSA holdings when MV of these stocks are lower, in order to limit crystallization of capital gains, as all of these names have large gains embedded, in our taxable account. Is it a reasonable approach ?

If technology sector witnesses some more decline (after very strong returns during 2023), what are the next Technical support levels for these three stocks ?

Thank You

Q: I’d like to know your opinion on Wayfair (W) please.

Q: My wife owns the stocks above. She is looking to add 1 to 2 more stocks in the new year. Can you recommend a couple us and Canadian?

Q: Trying to decide which of the two would have better long term upside. If one could only chose one of these for a 10 year hold, what would it be and why?

Q: For a growthy TFSA contribution for 2024, I’m considering one of these companies. Please rank based on potential gains for a 3-5 year period, with a brief comment on each one. Moderate to high(ish) risk (like SHOP) is fine with me.

Also, are there any other companies you’d recommend I consider and why.
Thanks for such a great service.

Q: My question from October 10, 2023.
“Everyone, I have held LSPD since the summer of 2019 and I bought and sold throughout the last 24 months. My remaining amount is less than 2% so not a significant amount of $. They have $700 million plus in cash; they call EBITDA positive this year; they reduced the head count which lowers expenses; interest rates will be increased once or twice then a wait period and then a slow decline. All positives for the stock price. And the Quebec Pension still owns a large block of shares - they haven’t given up! The stock price seems to have held at this price range, so there is no real material downside risk. SQ and Toast are in the same stock price position, an industry decline not a stock specific decline. In a better market this stock will quickly do a triple from here.. So … buy and wait … or… move on? Clayton”
This past year LSPD has been in a trading range of $17 ish to $15 ish. Today it has moved above that range with heavy volume. Is it time to buy or wait! If you are waiting, what are you waiting for?

Q: Hi, Shopify rally, this year has been remarkable this year, and stock continues to have a strong momentum, despite recent downgrades from many US brokerages. Canadian analyst community, though, continue to have a more positive bias.

Stock is up almost 200% from its October 2022 lows. Do you think, it's mostly short covering or company has strong fundamentals for the stock to regain its highs of $200, in due course ?

Why, in your view, are so many US analysts, lukewarm on Shopify ?

Thank You

Q: These all in my RESP, most of them under water except ATD and BAM. Please advise what should I buy to add 10k to it for 2 years hold. Also any thing need to be cleaned up in this list.
Thank you

Q: Good morning, Over a one year short period of time, which of these two companies do you think has more potential, Docebo or Shopify, thanks? Disregarding the risk level.

Q: I realize it's not a very long time horizon but of these three stocks, how would you rank them for Capital appreciation over a one year period, thanks?

Q: I hold the 3 following positions : SHOP (3%), LSPD (1.5%) with a 30%loss and NVEI (1%) with a 65% loss.
I want to clean a bit my portfolio, and clear at least one of NVEI or LSPD.
In which one would you prefer to consolidate? Would you even consider consolidate all in Shop or there’s a good case for keeping NVEI or LSPD?

Thank you!

Q: There has been so much price increase , I wonder if there is any insider buying or selling in the last 3 months ? Does the increased stake in Klaviyo poses any significance ? Thanks a lot.

Q: Peter & Team; what are good aggressive picks now for 21 yr old's new FHSA with a home purchase timeline in 5-6 years ? LMN ? NXE ? A combo ? Any other aggressive picks you like given the timeline ? What would be a 1 stock more conservative pick for the same account ? Thank you.

Q: Many analyst reports on SHOP after investor day. A mixed bag with maybe a leaning to the downside. What do you make of all this? Stock popped a couple of days ago and then gave it back and more Wednesday. From your take on investor day, what were your impressions? Still a top pick?

Q: If you wanted to add to either TOI or SHOP but only have money for one which would you choose?

Thanks
