Investment Q&A

Q: Good morning. I hold the above stocks in my TFSA. Together they now account for approx. 6% of my TFSA. I am thinking I'd like to consolidate them into one or possibly two positions. Which would you choose to keep if you went that route. Alternatively can you suggest one or two Canadian and one or two American growth stocks to take their place. I already hold full positions of CSU, LMN, TOI, NVDA, and SHOP. Thanks for your advice, Rod

Q: Could you formulate who are the direct competitors of Nuvei listed on North America stock market please?

Thanks

Q: HI folks
Sadly, I am down on all of these somewhere between 60 to 95%!!! They mostly but not all started out as somewhat small positions 2 to 4 years ago! I have time to wait longer but: 1)are there any that are absolute failures and therefore should be sold. 2) Would you please rate the selIs from 1 to 10 ..10 being the absolute SELL. 3)How many years should I give these? (tough to answer but just a guess). I will not get much at all for any of them! Please take as many credits as you see fit.
Much Thanks and happy Family weekend

Q: What is your view on the change in leadership at Lightspeed and why the interim appointment of Dasilva? Thanks.

Q: Hi,

When you say LSPD is trading at a premium valuation, what parameters are you refering to ? What in your mind would be a more reasonable price ?

Thanks

Q: Hello 5i!

What is your is your take on PINS, TEAM and LSPD? Would you be buyer? How would you rank them?

All 3 had good earnings beating estimates but put in dog house for lower projections than anticipated.

Thank you

Q: After reading your response to earnings, I was surprised by the sell off. Things looked pretty good but I guess the market wants more, and quicker. What's your take on things after the sell off? Was the size of it justified? Buy, hold or sell?

Q: Comments on recent quarter? Are things turning around here?
Thanks

Q: I currently have BBU, BBUC, BN, CRWD, LSPD, MSFT and U in my TFSA account. BN, CRWD and MSFT have shown good growth but I have losses in the other stocks. I will be investing $7000 in my TFSA for 2024. Would you suggest any changes to my current stock holdings? For my 2024 TFSA investment, would you suggest adding to one on my current stock holdings or investing in another stock such as LMN, AMZN or LMN? Thank you

Q: What do you think about using the 20 DMA to determine a bid to start a new position? I don't have the time nor access to the data required to do a thorough analysis. Any other suggestions?

Thank you

Q: I am thinking of dumping Lightspeed in favour of Galaxy, for a bit more punch in the 2024 portfolio. Your thoughts, please. I've held on for so long with LSPD, but my patience is ebbing, and wondering if I'm just hanging on for "sentimental" reasons, and not for good financial sense. Thanks, as always!

Q: I purchased LSPD at its high of $100.00, now it is down to $25.00. I am 60 yrs old, don’t need the money. Should I sell it and move on, or wait for it to rebound somewhat. If I sold it what would be a good replacement. It is in my TFSA!
I need some advice!
Thank you.

Q: Everyone, I have owned LSPD since 2019 and bought and sold shares in 2023. Recently, Recently I sold the last of my shares. My philosophy is to but the best of the best and hold for a long time. For me buying is a long process of researching and waiting to make sure it conforms to my requirements. Why is it hard to sell stocks that you have believed in yet performed differently? Clayton

Q: For a 3 year hold, how would you rate these stocks, 1 means "forget it", 10 means "high growth expected": Nvei.to, shop.to, payfare.to, LSPD.to, PayPal, afrm, upst?

If possible, what would be a good entry price? Thanks

Q: I’d like to know your opinion on Wayfair (W) please.

Q: I am currently in the negative on T, AMZN, TTD, TCN, NVEI, CPRX, ATZ, ENGH, LSPD, ABNB, WELL, BEP.UN, ROKU, ILMN, SE, PINS, and ZM. I have a 10+ year outlook, however would like to know based on the company and growth potential, what would you Sell or Hold? And if a Hold, please advise your perspective. Thanks!!

Q: Hello, I am down 25%+ on all of these companies and looking to do some tax loss selling prior to yearend. Can you order these companies in terms of what you would sell first? Would you rank these companies as Sells or Holds (or even Buys)? I am a long term investor, not a trader, so I'm hesitant to sell only to rebuy later, or to average down. I have some ability to do a tax loss carry back to recoup some of my losses from prior years (plus minimize my 2023 taxes).

Q: My question from October 10, 2023.
“Everyone, I have held LSPD since the summer of 2019 and I bought and sold throughout the last 24 months. My remaining amount is less than 2% so not a significant amount of $. They have $700 million plus in cash; they call EBITDA positive this year; they reduced the head count which lowers expenses; interest rates will be increased once or twice then a wait period and then a slow decline. All positives for the stock price. And the Quebec Pension still owns a large block of shares - they haven’t given up! The stock price seems to have held at this price range, so there is no real material downside risk. SQ and Toast are in the same stock price position, an industry decline not a stock specific decline. In a better market this stock will quickly do a triple from here.. So … buy and wait … or… move on? Clayton”
This past year LSPD has been in a trading range of $17 ish to $15 ish. Today it has moved above that range with heavy volume. Is it time to buy or wait! If you are waiting, what are you waiting for?
