Q: shop reported this morning. call is still to come. 5i continues to endorse it as a top growth pick but price continues to fall. looking from a macro view, is 5i trying to catch a falling knife. for those who followed your recommendation many months ago, its been a terrible ride down. after call, I expect 5i to remain positive and endorse buying at these new lower levels. Can you explain why shop is so special and warrants all this positive attention. The ceo was touted as a strong point but he admits he got things wrong. I'm fortunate I bought very early, sold most but still hold a small position. my confidence with shop and 5i grows thin. looking for comments after call. sell, hold or buy?

Q: TK on July 26 (I saw this on the 25th) questioned you about SHOP saying he didn't want to throw good money after bad. You advised you added it to your portfolio indicating it was a buy. I seen this prior to buying it on the 25th at $47.9 and on the 26th in the morning it was down under $40. I assume you follow this stock quite closely as it seems one of the more popular stocks you deal with, Was this so well hidden by the company that even Sherlock Holmes would not uncover the issues they were having? Thank you,

Q: So I had SHOP at a full 5% position in my portfolio and now with all the carnage it's less than 2%. So my question would be - does it make sense to average down from the ridiculously high price I paid to bring the position up a bit or just let it grow back (if ever)? Am I just throwing good money after bad in trying to make up the loss? I do like SHOP and intend to hold it for many years. Thanks!

Q: Good morning everyone at 5i! You have always said that you can’t time the market. I am going on the premise that the market is close to the bottom, and it is time to slowly start to add some names to the portfolio and to add to existing ones. Could you please suggest 5 growth and 5 income stocks ( US or Canadian) which you consider good buys at this point on time? Cheers, Tamara

Q: Hi Peter/Ryan, I have $1000.00 I can invest in my TFSA and was considering adding to either my 15 shares of NVEI or my 75 shares of SHOP. Is it a good time to add to these and which would you be more likely to add to at this time. Thanks

Q: Could I please have your thoughts on an article in the Globe and Mail (july 4)with regards to CEO compensation in particular Shopify CEO with more than $25 million in salary and another $25 million in stock options in a year when the stock has lost 75% of its value. On a positive note I see CSU Mr. Leonard still owns more than 1 billion dollars in stock with no stock options.
