Investment Q&A

Q: Hi i5,

According to "Buffett Indicator", when it's in the 70% to 80% range, it is time to throw cash at the market. When it moves above 100%, it's time to lean toward risk-off. Now Market Cap to GDP Ration > 100% means stocks in bubble territory. Do you think Canadian stocks may also in bubble territory? If US in bear market, do you think the above Canadian stocks which I am holding can be survived? Perhaps, should we start to off load which may be in danger during the bear market into cash, or switch among balance or income portfolio. Any suggestion?

Q: Hi Guys,

I have these tech companies inside my portfolio adding up to 40%, please rank them for long term growth (3 to 5 years). I would like to drop this percentage down to 25%.
Are there any MUST sell in this group?

thanks
Jim

Q: Excluding SHOP, which latest earnings reports have you been most impressed by wrt 5i portfolio companies?

Q: For new buying and looking for conservative growth which one would you buy and why? Thanks. ram

Q: Hi Team,

After its recent gains would you still be comfortable starting a position at these levels or wait for some weakness?

Thanks

Q: In your answer to John on July 30th you stated that REAL crushed revenue estimates with $118 million actual compared to $40 million estimated. I believe the estimates are for NET revenue, which came in at $43.8 million for the quarter. A beat, but not a huge beat.

Q: In a comparison of growth opportunity over the next 5-10 years, which would you side with? Where would you put REAL on the risk spectrum?

Q: Can you comment on REAL earnings. What impact should they have on stock performance? Do you see anything to be concerned about?

Q: What should we expect from the 3 quarter results coming tomorrow from real. And it looks like that lightspeed will have their's on April 6 2020. These 2 companies have had a pretty good ralley the last couple of weeks, i would expect strong results. Do you see the same here?

Q: Hello,
I am down in my TFSA by average 25% ( MX, RVX, CERV, CHEM, OVV, POW,CHR). I am up with EMA by 25%. I was thinking of selling EMA and buy some growth companies for a 5 year outlook. Is it good to get into LSPD, REAL, KXS and DCBO at this time.
Thanks
Ravi

Q: What is your top choice for playing the gold sector? This will be my only exposure to precious metals.

What are your top 10 growth names (Canada or US) for a new investment with a minimum 5 year hold? I'm not concerned about sector diversity or weighting because we're well diversified in other, larger parts of our portfolio.

Thanks.

Q: Is DND similar to REAL or DOCU . Is it OK to have in portfolio DND together with REAL and DOCU.
Andrew

Q: How would you compare Altus vs Real? Is any one preferable over the other or better to hold both? How would you compare their respective risk profile, valuation, etc ?
Many thanks

Q: Whenever there are these swings in the market from growth/tech to value/consumer it makes me think about diversification. I have also noticed that companies that bring tech to another field are thriving. Examples being SHOP bringing technology to consumers, REAL bringing it to consumers and real estate, VEEV bringing it to health care, etc.... Also the US markets just recategorized to decrease the amount of technology companies. I am presently 27% technology but only if I place REAL and AMZN in consumer, GOOG in communications , etc.

I own all the above listed companies except ROP. I am currently considering selling LSPD (technology or should just categorize it as consumer) to buy ROP (industrial or is it technology). This would bring technology to under 25% and increase Industrials and US exposure which I am underweight in. The problem is that I can’t help but think that I am making a trade just to make the diversification boxes all line up. One could easily consider ROP as technology.

In the medical profession we have a term for this. “Euboxic”. Which means making all the lab values line up to hope for the best but often with no real value added.

Q: Hi group here we go again - Tech stocks getting hammered - do you recommend selling (or buying more) on any or these recent high flyers KXS + Shop +Real+Visa Score + Docu and so on

Also can you recommend a silver stock that makes sense in this market Thanks for your guidance it really helps

Q: Would appreciate you ranking these 3 stocks with regard to risk and rank them separately according to growth. Is now a good time to invest in all three.
