Q: What's going on with these companies? Ever since I bought all of them about a month ago, they are al tanking!!!

Thanks! Austin

Q: ARES vs. APO:

APO's P/E ratio (18.6) is significantly lower than ARES's (90). Is there a reason for this discrepancy? Which one is a better buy?

In the past three years, both stocks have surged nearly 300%, marking a substantial increase. Any comments or insights on this?

Thanks.

Q: Good morning,

I hold BN in my non-registered account for my canadian side of my portfolio.

I've been looking to add to my TFSA on the US side in the same sector.

I see some of the notable ones are pulling back a hair.
From APO, BX, KKR could you please give me your pick. And if it's different than those proposed please put it forward as well.

Along with a value range to add. This will be longterm full position.

Thank you very much.

Thanks for the great service.

Asked by Esther on May 27, 2024
5i Research Answer:
Here are some of the high-quality US names with moderate risks and reasonable valuations that we think investors could do well by owning a basket of these names over the long term. Although these may not the the best winners, we think these could be considered as compounders such as BKNG, ULTA, AXON, ABNB, UBER, ADBE, FI, ODFL, HEI, AZO, ORLY, ARES.

Would your answer be the same today. If not, what would be your list today? Thanks
