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 started half positions in these company’s last week. Do you think it would be best to buy full positions now or wait for a little pullback?

Q: Good morning. In my TFSA I am down 40% in both TSGI & TOY. What are your thoughts about replacing these with LSPD and GOOS. This would be for a 4-5 year hold.
Thanks, Peter

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
