Q: Hello team,

I'm considering selling Apple at a large profit and deploying elsewhere.
I want to offset some gains with some losses.
Losers in order are:
DRX
SGY
BCE (small amount held in my non-reg)
Selling all is fine with me so I can balance out my Apple gains. What do you think about selling these names and what are a couple of your favourite US and CAD stock for new money?

Q: Good morning,
As the dust settles south of the border, how do you see these two (and related) stocks, as they're connected to EV and renewable energy. Worth purchasing today, or better to look elsewhere?
Thank you.

Q: Now that the Republicans have claimed a clean sweep, how does that bode for the continued electrification and greening of the economy. Do you think that this will slow down growth of such companies as Hammond Power Solutions? Or do you think that things will continue as they have the last few years?

Q: I am planning to sell my shares in CNR. I have done well holding it for several years but there just appears to be opportunities for better price appreciating than CNR has over the past couple of years. I would prefer to replace it with a Canadian company. It does not need to be an Industrial. I am currently over weight financials. I am ok with some risk. What companies would you consider as a replacement?

Thanks for all your help,

Mike

Q: Hi gang, again thanks for answering all Q's on Hammond, I like your SBC comparison to other big companies and your adjusted EBITDA response to mine.

So I promise this to be my last Q on the Hammond roller-coaster;)

Can you provide an update on growth drivers, YoY and forward looking for this co,pany. Is the underlying thesis still strong, with all the electrification needed in NA. And what support levels do you see? I'm looking to leg into a full position, but based on Apr - Jun levels of mid 90's it looks like we could have more floors down to go.

Thx

Q: Why is their Share based compensation (SBC) so impactful and visible in the results? Is it because of the size of the company and revenue? Other companies I am sure has SBC but I rarely see it as a top headline item in earning press release.

Q: Hi gang, first thanks for answering earlier question on Hammond.

My question is if you had a chance to listen on CC this am, and if there were and questions on this SBC impact? It really seams to add volatility to the stock, good results, great share price appreciation, then we get hit with this negative SBC. It looks like they are investing in growth, 20 million to upgrade facilities, but this will come with bigger employee growth.

Thx

Q: Hi team,

Thanks

Q: Hi team;
Any reason for the weakness in Canadian names today ? Namely the mentioned names for example, especially Gsy? Gsy down 10% in 2 days seems a bit drastic. Is there concern here or a bit the dip opportunity?

Thanks ,
Shane

Q: Hello Peter and Team. I am about to open a new TFSA account with almost 100K. Time frame of 5-8 years. Could you please recommend 4-6 growth/income stocks with 1or 2 ETF’s?

I was thinking BN, VFV, EIT.UN, TVK. Any other recommendations would be appreciated. Thanks for the amazing service. Brian

Q: I plan to buy 1 or 2 of the subject stocks in a TFSA for a term hold (5 years or more unless something changes). I see each of these stocks as medium risk with good growth rates. Would you agree with my risk assessment? Please rank in your view of highest to lowest potential growth rates.

Q: Greetings 5i team,
I hold these seven companies in my TFSA in roughly equal amounts. I would like to add WELL to my TFSA. Would it be wise to shave a bit from all of the companies listed in order to do so?
Or, do you see a better solution to achieve this (ie. SELL one / two of the other positions in favour of WELL)?
Thank you as always.
SP
