Investment Q&A

Q: What in the fundamentals contributed to the big drop in ENS today? Would you be a buyer of ENS, based on these quarterly results?

Q: Hi 5i,
What would be your choice today between these 2 US companies in a TFSA?
Please provide your thoughts/reasoning.
Thanks.

Q: What handful of small to mid cap companies do you see as having home run/Palantir type potential? I don’t care what exchange the companies are listed on. I’m willing to be patient and realize your picks are purely speculation.
Thanks

Q: Re your question from WIB today.

You suggested these names as great small caps for growth.

Cudos to you but YTD ENS is +22% and +80% 1 year. KRMN is +54% YTD and VOYG is +30% YTD.

This is extraordinary performance congrats. Given these outsized short term gains what would your purchase strategy be today if you do not own them. Buy at market, wait for a pull back, average in etc etc?

Please advise.


With thanks

Sheldon

Q: Hi Team,
I am debating trimming some of my RDDT shares to buy an initial position in ENS. Would you endorse this move or no? Which of these 2 names do you see as having the most potential over the next few years? I am a bit torn as I really like the potential I think RDDT has, but also am intrigued over the market opportunity ENS may have in the coming years. Could you do a quick comparison of growth rates and market potential for both?

Thanks,
Shane.

Q: I am looking at starting a position in ENS, and I am at a loss in terms of what investment to sell in order to fund the purchase. I am targeting an initial position of 2.5%-3%, and ideally I would like to sell another investment in the same sector, but there are few candidates in my portfolio which would fit this need. The potential candidates I have listed (WSP, REGN, HL, ATD, CRWD) are all in different sectors, and for all but ATD (small gain at this point) and CRWD (in registered account), would involve recognition of significant capital gains.

I would rather not use margin to initiate such a position, but I could if absolutely needed. I am trying to think outside of the box in terms of starting this investment, but I would prefer to stay disciplined in regards to funding new positions while maintaining diversification. If it helps further, my materials exposure has increaseOnd a fair amount over the last year (as has everyone's), and I have a relatively robust exposure to the technology sector, so if it was prudent for me to trim there, I could probably manage.

I'd appreciate any insights you may be willing to share. Thanks so much, and I look forward to reading your response.

Q: Hi folks. Which would you prefer - KTOS or ENS - for short term growth? Thanks so much in advance.

Q: Hello Team,

Can you please rank the below companies based on long term growth over the next 3 years.
No need to worry about size/industry etc. Looking at deploying some cash.
Thanks.

Q: I’ve held The Trade Desk for a long time and it is at a very low price at the moment compared to historic prices, but it sounds like you're skeptical about its near-term growth potential. Should I look to exit? Between Crwd, ens, app, and png …which offers the highest growth ceiling for a five-year horizon? If you have another company to recommend, feel free … Thanks

Q: A question for Peter. NVDA, AXON and ISRG are examples of great companies, that you have followed and recommended for years. Which 2 or 3 companies do you have your eyes on, that may become the next group of great companies in the next 10-15 years. A brief explanation of why each of these companies may become great, would be appreciated. Thanks for this excellent service!

Q: Peter, I found your answer to Nick about best stock decision to be thought provoking. When you bought NVDA it was some where in the 2 to 3 dollar range. What was your thinking at the time that made you like the stock? What was it about the stock that kept you holding ?
Do you see any early stage stocks today that warrant looking at?
I would like to add my appreciation to all at 5i for all the help and insight over the years.
Peter

Q: Hi 5i Team,

I was reading one of your recent responses where the idea came up that small caps are “long overdue” for a run. I’ve been hearing the same sentiment on CNBC and from other market commentators, so it got me thinking.

I’m not fully convinced that something is necessarily due to outperform just because it hasn’t gone up in a long time. I’m not sure how much of this is genuine opportunity versus a narrative around sector rotation. Large caps have treated me fairly well since I started investing, whereas my early experience with small-cap mining stocks was, frankly, a disaster.

That said, markets often move on sentiment and momentum as much as fundamentals. If enough people believe small caps are about to run, they often do — regardless of whether they’re truly “overdue.”

With that in mind, I’m curious:
If you had to narrow it down to five small-cap names to choose from for a potential small-cap run, which ones would you consider most attractive right now — either due to fundamentals, positioning, or momentum?

I realize Nike isn’t a small cap, but if I can’t get comfortable with a small-cap thesis, I’d likely just default to something like that. I’ve also wondered whether a beaten-down name like Krispy Kreme would qualify as a small-cap candidate with rebound potential.

In short, I’m looking for a short list of small caps that could realistically double or triple if the “small caps are going to run” narrative plays out.

Thanks, and I appreciate your insight.

Best regards,

Q: Hi 5i Guys, Could you please rank the noted stocks in order of your expected growth in the next 3 + years? Thank you!
Happy New Year!
