Q: Good afternoon 5i team,
Following MDI's acquisition of all shares of Explomin Perforacio,lately,will this add to their bottom line, will the synergies be well viewed by the market? MDI is "cheap" and this acquisition does not seem to be much of a catalyst as viewed by the market! Should I move on and would you view a similar company as a better option?
Many thanks,
Jean

Q: Hi guys at 5 I's.
Major Drilling is getting near 52 week lows again. I have kept a core position and trade another tranche of shares buying in the low 8's and selling in the low 9's. I have done well so far and I still think MDI should do well in an intermediate time frame because it has virtually no debt, is the leader in their field (drilling for minerals) and it is in what is supposed to be a growth area (looking for more mineral deposits so that we will have enough metals to electrify the world). So why does MDI keep trading down to less than 10 PE? I am quite happy to pick up so more MDI shares at a level that I think is cheap. Do you think MDI is cheap in the low $8 range?

Q: I have reviewed the Income statement and Balance and FFO. This company, from what I can see, is poised for some serious cash flow and profit moving forward. What is your take on it keeping in mind that there seems to be a push in exploration given the Electrification of Industry? Currently drills are in short supply and it appears that this trend will continue giving rise to higher margins etc. Would you buy in at this time?

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan and 5i team,
It’s that time of year to contribute to our grandson’s RESP (age 9). After rebalancing and adding new money we can add two stocks to the portfolio. To broaden the sectors , we are looking at utilities, healthcare, and real estate. Could you please suggest a name in each sector .
Thank you for your opinion.

Q: Hello Peter and team,
What do you think of major drilling group? For banks like TD and telecoms such as BCE, when would one consider them to be over valued? Would be mostly based on PE ratios and if so, what would considered a high PE ratio for banks or telecoms to be considered in over value territory? Thank you.
