Investment Q&A

Q: Hi, I’m selling one, selling half position on another and keeping one, in what order would be the best in your opinion.
Trying not to get to panic mode but these stocks are relentless. Cash is looking good right now. Thanks

Q: Further to the question asked by Clarence last January 20th on Constellation Software (CSU) & cos. (Lumine Group and Topicus), I’ve been doing research on Adobe (ADBE) to determine if it might be a worthwhile investment at this point in time.
Like CSU & cos, ADBE shares have declined significantly since generative AI became a “thing”. However, unlike CSU & cos, ADBE has been quick to integrate AI into its product portfolio, namely with its Firefly applications and its partnerships with leading AI ecosystems including Open AI and Google Gemini. Yet, despite these aggressive moves and a fair number of positive analyst reviews, ADBE’s share price continues to slide into deeply undervalued territory. Morningstar gives it a 5-star rating.
My question is this: if, despite Adobe’s considerable efforts to provide its customers with solid AI-related solutions, its share price continues to fall, how confident are you in the future direction of CSU & cos’ share prices? I understand that they are not deeply into public relations but even if by miracle they were to reveal how much effort they are putting into incorporating AI into their services, in what way would the outcome be any different from what is happening to Adobe’s share price?

Q: I purchased CSU a few days ago when the price was $2828.10. Is this hold or should I sell before it drops further.

Q: Hello, I know 5i like both companies but if only one could be purchased which one would be best going out 3 years. CSU has lost some momentum in the last year and CLS seems to be chugging along nicely. Thank you

Q: Hello 5i - please take the number of credits you need. I began investing last year and have the following portfolio/down rounded up: GOOG: 6%, BN 7%, CSU 4%, DOL 4%, ENB 7%, HXS 9.5%, IFC 5.5%, META 4%, SHOP 7%, WSP 5%, AXON 4%, BRKB 6.5%, ISRG 6.5%, NVDA 2.5%, CRM 2%, AEM 1.2%, BAM 6%, H 1%, LMN 2%, AMZN 5%. I have about 40% cash to add in. Can you please advise of the following: 1. any key stocks you would recommend I add? Please prioritize with 1 being highest recommendation and 5 being lowest recommendation. 2. Any stocks you would recommend I sell? I am interested in a 5 year view. Thank you so much!

Q: I have money to invest and I own none of these stocks. Could you list them in order that you would buy them today.
Thanks for you help.

Q: Hi Folks,

With some uncertainty in the future, including possible US tariffs and reaction tariffs, I curious if you have any thoughts on what those actions might mean for the short and medium term. I assume they would be withdrawn at some point (so not asking long term). Specifically, how banking (TD, BNS), and companies CSU and DSG and the overall TSX. Please free free to deduct 5 questions.

Q: I have all these stocks in my RIFF and they are all up since purchase. I have $75.00 in my RIFF, would you add a new stock, what would you suggest?
Thanks for your help.

Q: The stocks are held in m grandson's RESP. Please recommend any others or substitutes. He will not need to access these funds for at least 3 years. At what point would you consider beginning to move out of these growthier equities into less volatile of lower risk? Do you have any recommendations for quality dividend payors that you would slowly accumulate as you reduced these equities?


Thanks very much for your advice.

Mike

Q: I have held CSU for several years and would like to add to my position. Given the recent rise in share price would you wait for a pull-back to add to your position?

What would you see as a reasonable entry price?

Thank you,

Mike

Q: I hold both of these and have some new money to deploy. Which one of these (or both) would you suggest?

Many thanks, as always, for your great service.

Q: My accrued gains from the last few years on these tech stocks are evaporating. I'm thinking of selling the works and buying an energy ETF like IXC. Does this trade make sense?

Q: First time poster here.
With the slight decline recently, which of these following companies do you guys like the most for a growth portfolio for the next 5-10 years? I have 150K to invest (consider this fun spending money and money to play with), and I want to know how much of the 150K would you guys invest in each of these companies separately? ie. 35k in CSU etc
(side note), the report card for TOI said it was valued at 10 billion when it was $60/share. But now it's $131/share and everywhere I read it says 5 billion market cap. Was this a typ-o?). Thanks!

Q: My hold the following Canadian tech stocks: CSU, KXS, LSPD, ENGH, SHOP, and TOI. Based on your continued support of NVEI and DSG, I would like to add them as well. However, I would like to ensure diversification and so wish to avoid companies that are similar to those which I already own. So my question is, would owning these 8 companies provide me with a diverse mix of Canadian tech stocks?

Q: Given your response to Peter's question of the 31st, would you add new money at these record levels or wait for a pullback"

Thanks, Mike

Q: Greetings 5i,

The company's listed are TFSA holdings. The goal of the TFSA is moderately aggressive growth. Time frame is 4-8 years. Equities are purchased in equal weights and rebalanced based on weighting.

SLF and BNS are also held in other accounts, at an overall portfolio percent of ~5-6%. Which would you recommend adding to at this time? What do you consider the weakest from this list? Would you consider removing any from the TFSA holding only in either a non reg or reg account? If so, why? And which one, two or three additional growth oriented companies, either CAD or USD would you recommend.

Take as many credits as required.

Thank you for the excellent service.

Q: Any accounting for the rise in price recently?

TIA

Q: Hello 5i
How would you rank the listed companies?
I would like to add NVIE. ,but also need to either sell one of the listed companies or reduce all equally.
The companies are equally owned.
Your opinion is appreciated.
Thanks
Cal

Q: Above are my CDN holdings greater than 2% of my portfolio. I'm looking for 1 more sleep at night CDN recommendation for an RRSP account that you would initiate at more than 2% and hoping you might have a short list of recommendations? No oil/gas/pipelines, thx but otherwise I'm open.

Q: Is the dividend from the Topicus spinout from CSU an eligible one in a taxable account and would you know the amount per share?
