Q: Hi 5i Team,

I have a handful of losers that I'm trying to decide what to do with. Using your crystal ball, which of these would you continue to hold and which would you dump?

Q: Hi 5i Team,

With the recent slide with these "recovery" companies, would you consider this a good time to be picking them up?

Any reason for the recent weakness? I saw that CCL is exploring a tender offer for its secured notes so is this a cash cushion concern?

Would also appreciate if you could rank them from best to worst (in your opinion) in terms of potential upside as of now.

Thanks in advance for your comments!

Q: Hi 5i,

To piggyback on the answer to Josh on recommendations for a TFSA:
We have BAM.A and GSY already. We can add to these stocks or in the short-term would cruise (CCL:US) or vacation booking stocks (SABR) that are cyclical and "hot" be preferred over BAM.A, GSY or KXS? It is a higher impact, shorter play theme (1 year or less).

Can you help us understand the selection of KXS? EBITDA and Sales Growth are forecasted to be lower next year though EPS getting a big boost next year. We can't wrap our head around the growth potential to have KXS in a TFSA. We now have this stock in an RRSP.

Thank you for your awesome service.

Cheers,
Debbie and Jerry

Q: As a recovery play, and a 2 to 5 year horizon, specifically cruise lines, what is your opinion on CCL vs it's peers. If not CCL, what others would you recommend and why. CCL seems to be the biggest in terms of the number of sub groups under it. Is this size a negative though? Please provide some forward looking metrics to your recommended play

Q: Hi, my respected 5i team
Could you please recommend some solid names(US and Canadian markets) focusing on post-Covid theme play? I would like to take advantage of the price decline due to the pandemic lock down, some solid names that will be the survivors.

Thanks in advance!

Q: Hi,
Currently cruise stock prices are at an all time low. Is it reasonable to take this opportunity and make investments in the cruise industry while stock prices are cheap?
We are cruisers and have done 12 cruises in 7 years. What I know about cruising is that their passengers are very loyal, which some people doing over 40 cruises. Some people think that cruising is only for the elderly, but we are a family of 5 with 3 boys aged 7, 5 and 3 and can verify that these cruise lines have really targeted families like us with water slides, go karts, laser tag and an enormous array of activities for all ages.

Some people say they would never cruise again, but that is like saying you would never fly again. I just do not think that will happen. I do not believe these large cruise companies will go bankrupt, but I could be wrong. Specifically, Royal Caribbean, Carnival and Norwegian Cruise Lines.
