Q: Hello 5i team,
I wanted to add a technology sector company and was wondering of the current stocks in the BE portfolio, which one has the most room to grow? They are all doing very well.
Thanks,
Andrew

Q: Hi Peter and Team,

I manage my son's TFSA, and have recently almost completed a more appropriate sector allocation. In the Technology space, he has a half position in KXS. What Technology company would you recommend at this point for another half position? I was thinking of CSU but I wish it would split at least 10:1. :) How about SYZ which seems to be on a tear, or do you suggest something else at this point?

Thanks in advance for your valued advice.

Q: Hello Peter and 5i team,
I want to add a technology name to my TFSA.
Sylogist looks interesting as it has a nice dividend and the technicals look good. I am concerned it is too small and it is vulnerable to interest rate risks.
Absolute software also has a nice dividend and has no debt. Is it ready to grow?
Do you still think Constellation is doing almost everything right?
I sold Enghouse for a nice profit at higher prices. Is it time to get back into this name?
Open text has a small dividend
Which of these companies are your favourite for stability and growth .
thank you as always for your great service.

Q: SYZ, ZZZ, CZO, TNC, NFI, PBH and ITC These are all stocks that have been down considerably over the last month. They are stocks that 5i customers have or did have. Meanwhile, the TSX 60 has been flat for the last month. So I am wondering if the members are selling out on these stocks and possibly putting the money into oil which has been up for the last month or so. Should I have been getting out of some of these stocks over the last while and putting my money into oil which is one sector that is doing quite well and probably the reason the TSX is not losing ground this month. Thank you. Dennis

Q: I understand that these 4 stocks are considered growth stocks. Presently I am negative on all four. Is patience required ( long term ?) or would you suggest to switch to other growth stocks and which ones would you recommend. Thanks.

Q: I have a list of companies that I come across more than once by reading the questions and answers and if you seem favourable with them they go on my list. Spinmaster (toy), new flyer (NFI) and ITC and Sylogist (SYZ) meet that criteria. All fur of them are under performing the market more than normal. Is there any of these that I should get rid of? I appreciate your advice. Dennis

Q: Hi team, I am looking to start a position in SYZ, I have pretty well every position in the growth portfolio. I'm thinking 3% full position in one purchase . Is it a good idea?
I am thinking about the same with ESL, and have noticed the share price is lower now than a year ago. Is a full position same as above be acceptable?
Thank you as always for the service.

Q: Ryan's article,"Very shareholder friendly" shows 5I has 4 of the 10 companies with SYZ as the clear winner.Last week a guest on BNN stated that SYZ is very good in maximize value of acquistions,so hope to see some deals soon.Recently signed an agreement with Microsoft.I have a 2% position so please advise if it is time to add more in this volatile market. On Sep 9,The Motley Fool recommend SJ as a top growth stock for high returns today.Have a 7% position,so it is prudent to add a bit more. Always appreciate your great services & views
