Q: Hello 5i team,
I am currently up 48% on CXI and am contemplating switching to Savaria (SIS). This would be within my TFSA. I am overweight financials (as most Canadians probably are..) and currently underweight industrials.
Would you endorse such a move; are there any "red flags" you would see to such a switch? Any thoughts or comments would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
Mike

Q: Hello, I have been reading your comments on Savaria Corp with interset, for a few months and decided to initiate a small position this week. Companies supporting aging demographics should continue to do well, but SIS is still fairly small cap and valuation appears rich. Stock also had a decent run lately, so it could tread water for a while. I would rather wait a few more quarters, before adding at today's price. What are your thoughts ? Thanks

Q: In light of your updated report on gamehost would a switch make sense to savaria. I usually try to replace a stock at or around the same price my thinking being that if sis has the potential to move up $2.00 faster than gamehost then I do not risk more money on a small cap stock and can recoup my $2.00 loss on gamehost faster with owning savaria.Does this strategy make any sense? I get they are completely different sectors.

Q: I've had my eye on this one for a while. Too bad I did not buy when I came upon it? I tend not to buy small companies that are valued on growth because the landscape is littered with companies that fall faster then they rise when things do not go right. This comp. seems incredibly over valued to me: TTM PE of 27, FPE of 25, 7x book value. Even with an ROE of 20 & PEG ratio over one? It's EPS is very small - so, earning on a cash basis must be a fair bit higher. I'd like to buy - maybe? I prefer dividend growers as well. How liquid is the stock which is important to me because I like to hold good size positions. I did well with BAD & ACQ which were growth stocks: 3 x my money - so, I do like a bit of growth.

Q: Down 80% on PHM and 20% with AYA. Thinking of selling these turkeys and buying SIS. SIS is currently overbought, but seems to have generally good fundamentals. I bought GUD almost 2 years ago at its all time high and just broke even on that purchase. I am concerned about the current valuation of SIS and if I am giving up too soon on AYA. My new rule to avoid this mess in the future is to sell half when down 5% and sell the balance when down 10%. Thankyou

Q: Hello, I am trying to choose between NFI and SIS. Both of the stocks are releasing their earning reports in a few days. Do you have any thoughts or any knowledge on whether they will do well? I would appreciate some guidance as to which stock I should pick that would offer the best value and best potential in the future. Do you think I should maybe buy half NFI and half in SIS to spread my risk more evenly? Thanks.
