Investment Q&A

Q: I know you are not speculators especially in this forum but you have in the past identified companies like shopify, lightspeed etc. Are there any new companies that your watching for the growth portfolio at this time that you care to share for members to do their own research on?

Q: Granted that these companies differ in dividend (only with AD), size (DOO largest, AD smallest) and type of business (sports equipment, fashion products, and equity financing to private companies), how would you rank these four stocks for future growth runway today (highest to lowest) if sector was not a consideration? Thanks for your valued input!

Q: shall Ihold these or sell and move on I don't need the money

Q: Hi,
You have been rightly complemented many times for
or your wise counsel recently. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the members of the group for their many varied questions. Both the questions and answers have helped me a lot.
For various reasons I have not visited the Asset Allocator section for some time and find that I am not as well 'balanced' as I should be. I am over invested in financials (BAM.A, TD, BNS, RY and SLF) and grossly underinvested in Consumer cyclicals. I am also overinvested in Canada. Could you please suggest 2-3 US and Canadian Consumer cyclical stocks?
Many Thanks,
Bryn

Q: Morningstar rates ATZ "Wide" moat, only a handful of Canadian companies are rated as such. How did ATZ build that moat? I missed the boat, but just doing research.

Q: Hi Peter and Team,

Hope you all continue to be safe! Question is on Aritzia's earnings and the market reaction. They seem to have done quite well and same store sales growth looks pretty strong. I initiated the position with the BE portfolio recently but didn't buy all the stock I was supposed to and was looking at adding the rest following the earnings realease.

Your thoughts, please!

Thanks!

Q: Good morning, Peter and Ryan.
Sorry this is to follow up with my last question. I forgot to include ATZ in my tickers.
I have limited cash in CAD RRSP account now. I think the each of above four stocks (i.e. XBC, DOO, ATZ, WELL) will be good additions to diversify my current portfolio. But I may add only two of three of the above. Can you please rank them?
Thank you,
Yiwen

Q: Your top 5 consumer stocks for long-term hold? US would be ok.

Q: Hello 5i,
Thanks for all your great work.
I've been impressed with the unique way that Aritzia has carved out a place for itself in the Canadian retail sector. I've been thinking about stepping in and buying some discounted shares. Can you please comment on your overall thoughts on the company, it's financial strength and it's ability to make it to the other side of the virus disruption.
Thanks so much,
Murray

Q: Hi, 5i Team
In the market updates email that you sent on Mar/01, you mentioned the following companies deserved a closer look:

Air Canada (AC), Lightspeed (LSPD), BRP Inc. (DOO),Maple Leaf Foods (MFI),Dollarama (DOL),Aritzia (ATZ),Gildan Activewear (GIL),
Alimentation Couche-Tard (ATD.b), Canada goose (GOOS), Descartes Systems. Group (DSG), WSP Global (WSP), 

In the "5i special Opportunities Report" within the Special Market Volatility Report email sent on Mar/09, you recommended 10 stocks that were very attractive. Only WSP and DSG were also included. What do you think of the others? Is it a good time to buy them around March?
Are they also solid names worth owning especially now after some huge corrections?

Thank a lot!

Q: I need to increase my Cons Disc and my Real Estate allocations. I currently hold GC and DRA.UN. Do you have any other suggestions of a Balanced Equity nature for each sector. Risk is not a concern.

Thank You for your great service
Clarence

Q: Hello 5i team,
I read that Artiza's director sold last week 1.9 million $ worth of stock. As well as two other executives exercised their options and sold.
Would you read anything negative ?
Between GOOS and ATZ, which one would you prefer for a long term holding I need more consumer discretionary in my portfolio. (I am 60 and will not require to access any funds).

Regards,
Elaine

Q: Hi,
Can you tell me what you think fair share value is for Aritzia now? Ive held it less than a year, and am thrilled with being up $8 (almost 50%). Im just trying to decide if the best part of this ride is over or if it has potential and reasoning to make more solid gains. Even if you think growth will continue but slow down from the current pace, I will likely sit on it a while. I just dont want to kill my returns by waiting if its likely to stagnate for a while.

Thanks

Q: Happy New Year Peter!

What are your thoughts on ATZ’s latest quarter? Can it be considered a “little Lululemon?” Does it have potential to be a part of 5i’s growth portfolio given the overlap with Canada Goose?

Thanks for all the great work by 5i in 2019,
Angelo

Q: Could you please comment on their latest results.
What are your thoughts on initiating a position in a TFSA at this price level.

Thanks for the great analyses and ideas in 2019!!

Q: With the recent jump in ATZ Im up about 35% in the past year on this company. Is it
time to "take the money and run" or do you think there is still room for growth with this company?

Q: Is this a buy and hold stock ? Thanks

Q: Hi there, ATZ quarterly results looked strong (however as did the past Q's), but the stock does not really seem to gain much attention and attraction since IPO. What are your thoughts on this company and do you foresee it eventually gaining traction like such Canadian brands like Lululemon or Canada Goose? Does it need a US listing to gain attention and investors? Would you step in today? If so, at a full or half position? Thanks!

Q: Why is Aritzia off 3% today
