Q: Dear 5i,

can you please suggest some Canadian listed home health care stocks that one can further research for potential purchase.

thanks for the great service this year!

Q: Planning on moving 6 thousand dollars worth of shares from my cash account to my tfsc in the new year. Which of these two companies [ well ] or [ xbc ] do you see with the most upside. thanks

Q: Hi...out of these three companies which one would you say has the most upside in the 1-2 yrs and which one in the 5 + years

Thanks.

Q: How would you rank these top flyers from a futrure stock appreciation point of view. With so many positive comments, its tough to determine which is the best of the best and with limited new cash to invest, I can't own them all.

Q: Hello Team 5i,
I own the companies listed above within a TFSA
REAL is smallest holding at 11% of this account = approx 12k
I will add 6k to TFSA in Jan 21

I am considering four options
Keep REAL and BUY more REAL with 6k
Keep REAL and BUY more XBC, STC, ATA and/or WELL with 6k
SELL REAL and BUY NVEI with 18k
SELL REAL and BUY more XBC, STC, ATA and/or WELL with 18k

-sector allocation not a consideration
-transaction costs not a concern
-concentration (# of securities) within TFSA not a consideration

Your thoughts please?

All the best to all the people at 5i who provide such a wonderful service.

Q: May I have your comments on Well

Q: Would you hold both of these companies, or are they too similar?

Thanks!

Q: Do you think Brookfield Renewable has as much chance for growth as a CAE or WELL in the next 6 months to a year?

Q: Hi Folks,
I currently have the above companies in my Non-Registered account. I am looking to add some money - can you tell me what company you would add to OR can you recommend another that I can take a look at. Appreciate your comments.
Thanks

Q: Hello Peter,
First, I want to thank you and your team for a fabulous job. I really find your service useful not just from stock selection, but gaining knowledge in the industry overall. Best wishes for Xmas and the New Year.
The stocks are from various sectors so not apples to apples comparison but if you had to choose the list from lower risk to higher risk, what would it look like and what factors did you use to select the profile.. Many thanks.

Q: Could you rank the US Healthcare stocks + WELL in terms of management, balance sheet, and long-term growth prospective? Thanks.

Q: What do you think of well's update today.

Q: I'm helping my 27 yr old daughter with her TFSA investments. The TFSA currently holds GSY, KXS, LSPD, PBH and SHOP, which have all done very well. I got SHOP for her at $67/share, so it's done particularly well!!
I'm looking to add one more growth stock to the mix, and have been considering LNF, WELL, GOOS, DOO or ATZ, but am completely open to another suggestion to complement her existing holdings. Please rank these from best to worst for growth (with moderate risk) if you were add today for a 1-3 year hold. If you have another suggestion for a stock that may perform better over that time frame, please provide it.
Thanks 5i for such wise and timely advice, always!

This morning Well announced that it will be profitable in the Q.Is it unusual to preannounce? When will it reports the Q?.Is it timely to set up a position here especially in light of approval & subsequent distribution of Vaccine? Txs for u usual great services & views

Q: I know it’s a good problem to have but my listed tech stocks have done really well thanks in part to recommendations from 5i. So much so that I now have 41% in the tech sector. Since selling my mutual funds and establishing my own portfolio, your guidance and suggestions have been so much appreciated. It seems that other sectors may be the place to be as we come out of the pandemic. The issue is that these are for the most part proven quality stocks. I’m not keen on selling any of these. Does one bite the bullet and sell some ? If so suggestions are appreciated? Or does one just trim profit and migrate into other sectors and buy more of companies like DOO GSY and WELL? Thanks

Q: what is the forecast EPS for 2021 for xbc well and real? if losses are projected has management forecast a future date when their respective companies might achieve profitably? thanks Richard

Q: I have a DOY balanced portfolio (Alpha-Balanced for guidance) , with less than 10 year timeframe.
I’m underweight communication services, and energy. Not a fan at this stage of oil or precious metals. Overweight in industrials and technology.
My concern is with my overweight in technology. Reading a number of opinion articles that refer to the tech boom as another dot.com. The reply often is oh but this is different.
Here’s my two cents worth especially related to tech stocks I own. First of all investors/traders seem to be jumping in and out of technology based on the latest COVID-19 / vaccine news.
Re KXS; will still be in demand long after Covid-19. LSPD; somewhat sensitive to Covid-19 but have done a good job diversifying and adapting restaurant services etc. Will do well in recovery.
Maybe more acquisitions.
SHOP; like Amazon will carry on even though the valuation is high. Younger generation will still shop on line.
Now comes the tricky part. WELL and VEEV. I don’t quite have a handle on. Not sure if the demand for their service will still be there post COVID-19.
Your comments and/or thought would be greatly appreciated. I have a feeling that many of your clients would be interested in what you have to say.
I’m an experienced investor but don’t have access to the kinds of info I once did. I depend a great deal on your unbiased expert opinion.
Merry Christmas

Roy

Q: Hi,
I am trying to look at the stocks I own , not merely as 'stocks" but rather as an investment in a good business. When I look at it that why, I am inclined not to sell indiscriminately irrespective if the stocks have gone up or not. Generally, if I do sell, I realize that I had made a terrible mistake in doing so, after the fact.
To my limited knowledge I do look to 5i for guidance.
Would you consider the stocks I have listed , to be those that represent "good businesses" and that are worth holding even 5 or 10 years out?

Thanks

Q: Please comment on latest acquistion of Excellemd today. Txs for u usual great services & views
