Q: Hi,

I have a position in Lulu (slightly underwater) and ATZ (slight gain), but wondering if - all else equal - I should sell some Lulu and make ATZ a bigger allocation.

Can you compare them in terms of valuation, growth prospects, and any other general comments?

Also, how do you think the sector and Lulu/ATZ will do in a period of economic weakness and high inflation? My thoughts are that it is discretionary spending so that's not ideal, but also they should be able to pass on some inflation to the end user.

Some anecdotal thoughts - my good friend is a model and just started working for ATZ's new men's line. I asked him what he thought of the men's clothing he said it was really good, stylish, and thinks it will sell well. Take that with a grain of salt, but he's extremely fashionable and if he likes it that's definitely a good sign.

Thanks!

Q: Looking to reposition out of Oil&Gas. The noted companies have been beaten down. How would you rank for a 3 year horizon. Highest to lowest. Any other names you would add to this list?

Q: Not a question but just a comment that companies like Aritzia First Service and Go Easy would never have been on my radar without 5i. I’ve held all three for a number of years in my portfolio and they’ve done well. It’s also heartening and reinforcing to hear the “experts” on BNN Market Call selecting these names as Top Picks or strong recommendations. I appreciate your sound advice and recommendations. No doubt I can also mention losers that I’ve followed from 5i but my take is that it’s up to us to decide when to sell and what to buy based on your data and your informed advice. Thanks

Q: Just a note of interest about ATZ. I visited one of the mega malls 2 days ago and it was fairly quiet except for Aritzia. It seems to me that people still want their products especially young women. With this in mind is it not possible it could hold up through a minor short recession which is being touted? I would like to add today before it reports.
Much thanks

Q: Hi 5i extremely informative staff! I have been holding these four stocks in my cash portfolio with long term intentions(5 years) for diversification contrary to my desire to have 4plus dividend % performers
They are also down substantially in the last 6 months

Can you please comment or recommend holding for long term or replacing them with suitable high dividend replacements in the same sector if possible
Please deduct the credits that you deem appropriate
Thank you
