Q: Hi, Small/Mid Cap sector is performing really well and most of 5i portfolio constituents have seen a remarkable recovery over past few weeks. However, this one continues to languish, with no momentum in sight. What's causing investors to be so negative on the company, despite solid results and swelling order book ? Is there anything, in your view, which could change the market sentiment ?

Thank You

Q: Hello Team,

Looking at updating/rejigging my TFSA account, are you able to rank the above stocks from 1 - 12, looking at a 3 year hold. These are a mix of some I hold and some I want to purchase. Not worried about size, risk and or industry. Thanks.

Q: Hello 5i team, given events of this week, a lot of valuations have changed. I have a lot of CLS and am hoping it's a solid stock that got tossed into the penalty box due to a perception of it just being an AI stock.
If you had $10,000 today, and were looking to invest in high-growth over the next 5 years, how would you allocate it please? Or if that's too specific, please order the stocks from most to least favourable if bought today.
Thank you!

Q: Hi, hold enough EIF that I want to divest and diversify. Looking for high growth over the next 4-5 years, but not as interested in dividends. I also hold a fair bit of CSU and gsy, so am thinking along those lines. What would be a good ranking for the following at today's prices (best to worst), and are there another couple additions you'd suggest? Big thanks!
DOL, BN, CLS, LMN, TOI, DRX, DSG, IFC, TRI, PRL, AFN, GFL.

Q: Hello 5i...with respect to Cdn Industrials...I am looking to consolidate 9 positions into 6 to 7 holdings...thaey are ( largest to smaillest holding ) WSP, TFII, EIF, ATS, CJT, HPS.A, TRI, TVK, DRX, I am looking for some sort of combo of stable growth ( I have good gains in WSP and TFII and will hold, but could trim ) and potential exceptional growth. Would appreciate if you could rank based on growth and how you might see a consolidation effort for these.

One option being considered is to move completely out of CJT and /or ATS to US industrials and looking at potentials FIX or TT... would like your opinion on this move and if you have preference for one or another suggested potential US industrial ( I already hold AXON )

thanks/Art

Q: Hi, The stock has been on a precipitous decline, almost every single day( Down over 35%, from post earnings high ) and can's seem to find a floor. The earnings were considered to be spectacular, but what spooked the market, perhaps was the owners' sale of 2.8 mln shares @ $17.31, being 8.5% below the prevailing market price, causing a surge of sellers and profit takers.

Most of the infrastructure/steel fabricators companies stocks are doing excellent, but DRX happens to be an outlier. Should this be a red flag and a concern ?

5i recently bumped the stock weight in the Growth Portfolio to 2.5%, which speaks of your conviction.

Do you see the market sentiment shifting and stock trading back to its recent high, any time soon?

Thank You

Q: Hi, We have some large capital gains crystallized this year, as a result of trimming of some overweight holdings and rebalancing of our Taxable account portfolio. The two securities, we have some losses in, are DRX and TVK. We are toying with a plan to sell those positions in full ( 2% and 1.75%, respectively) in order to book some losses to help us offset the large gains.

We also intend to buy back full or partial positions, after 30 days, as these are some of highly recommended companies by 5i.

Considering that both stocks are trading close to their recent lows, do you see any merit in this strategy ? Are there any catalysts, in the near term for these companies, which could be favourable to stocks but pose a risk to our buyback plan ?

Thank You
