Q: Profitability, why is this so difficult to achieve for LSPD? Is one reason that the CAO and Board are still continuing to be driven or leaning to expansion and therefore changing to control control is difficult to achieve? But that does not make sense because we have heard they want to be profitable in 2024! I am confused. Clayton

Q: I have the above stocks in my TFSA and they are all down and smaller positions. I also have GSY, KXS, SHOP, TOI, ECN, SIS, SU, MEG and ENB in this 300K TFSA (thanks to SHOP and 5i). I am wondering about topping up 2-3 of the above down stocks or something new with this year's contribution. My usual approach has just been to top up the losers but this market has me struggling for ideas. Would you add to any of the losers above or do you have 2-3 new suggestions for me. Thanks.

Q: Happy New Year to the 5i Team. I enjoyed Lightspeed on its ascent in my TFSA, and suffered buying back too early. I believe, supported by some analysts, that it has a future. Should I take my lumps, sell LSPD and invest the proceeds to increase my position in BN to 4%, or continue to hold LSPD. Which stock does 5i feel will generate the best overall return over the next 5 years?

Q: Over the past two years with the downturn of the market, I am down significantly with majority of these holdings in various accounts. I have a long-term 10+ year outlook, so looking to see if you feel any of these can be sold off given the outlook, management of the company? If so, what are your recommendations for a growth investor in either CAD/US stock options?

Thanks!!

Q: I hold the above stocks in my Unregistered,TFSA,and RRIF accounts. I understand that as of January 1, 2023, the IRS will require a 10% withholding tax when Canadian residents sell US stocks. Does this rule apply to sell any of the above mentioned my stocks ?

2) If I sell above Stocks before end of 2022, will I avoid paying new IRS 2023 10% withholding tax?

Q: Hi team,

LSPD is my largest position in my TFSA and it is down 75% from my purchase price. The TFSA itself is down 50%.
You are obviously not positive about the future of LSPD. And, at 82 years old, I am not in for the long term.
My choice is to sell to save whatever is left of it or to keep it with the hope of selling it later with a smaller loss than now. What do you think ?
What would you do if you were in my shoes ?
Thank you for your attention.

Q: Hi Team,
You now recommend selling Lspd . I am down 40% on the name. What stock should I then replace it with with the highest probability of getting my investment back? Would a switch into Shop be wise? Currently they seem to trade fairly equivalent. Thanks

Q: Just to clarify, 5i is selling all of ANRG and PRMW and LSPD from the portfolios.

ANRG and LSPD are at all time lows. So you're selling at the lows.

Prmw is bullish and moving higher and is near its high and you're selling that as well.

What happened to run with the winners and sell the losers (not at their low)?
