Q: 5i has given our family some very good investment ideas. Among the good ones that have benefitted our accounts lately are LMN and HPS.A. Thank you for these. Using your crystal ball what would be your best suggestion for a couple of other similar stocks that might replicate these growth stories over the next year. Thank you.

Q: A family member entering post-secondary school owns these stocks in their TFSA on an approximate equal weighting of $4,000. They have $8,000 to contribute and invest this fiscal.

The objective is growth with some risk; maintenance of capital is a secondary objective.

If allocating in $4,000 increments would you add to one or more of the existing investments or are there one or two you think would be better suited to a young investor over a 3 - 5 year investment horizon?

Thanks so much.

Q: Hi Team,
Having not researched this name myself yet, what is the story behind HPS? It's an old company and looking at a 10yr chart had been flat for years between $5-$10 range. Now since 2021 it went parabolic to $84 today. What changed in its business to justify such a drastic gain? Perhaps I am a bit cynical or cautious; but I am a bit hesitant being told in the past not to invest in names that have gone parabolic so quickly? At least without a significant pullback. Thanks for your insight!

Q: hi, would you consider these more on the risky side, or just smaller cap? I read Hammond EPS around 15 which seems fine to me. I can't find an EPS on LMN?
is this a decent entry point for each? if not, what price would be a more reasonable entry point?
cheers, Chris

Q: I miss the days of seeing 5i on BNN as I always felt that there was a lot of great information provided. That being said, if you were to be on the program today (January 5), I’m wondering what your top 3 picks would be and why?

Thank you again for the fantastic service and Happy New Year to everyone at 5i

Q: Do you have any timely and suitable names for my TFSA contrib this year? I tend to buy things that are quite growthy in my TFSA. As such its already chock full of technology. Open to US or Canuck names but they need to be quite liquid. Happy New Year

Q: Uber for quite some time has been stalling out in this $61.00 range. HPS has been stalling out in the $81.00 range. Could this go on for quite some time before it moves up, if it moves up? Meanwhile, on my radar 2 securities you are familiar with have been getting a lot of attention lately being ZM and SNAP. Would you recommend them? Wishing you the best of the season.

Q: With a long term view, where might Hammond find itself in 3/5/10 years? They are clearly doing something well, have had amazing returns, but imagine they are still relatively unknown to the greater market (as well as being a sub $1-billion market cap? - lack of institutions own it maybe?)

The addressable market must be growing as everything electrifies - do you think they'll acquire / be acquired? I see it is trading near its 52 week PE high, but is there an argument it is still undervalued? Could this ever be a $5 billon market cap company? Debt seems low. Do you know much about management? Do they ever issue shares (or follow that CSU model of never issuing).

Thanks in advance. - Jeff
