Investment Q&A

Q: Long investor trying my best to hang in there in with some of my dog stocks. Down significantly in Matterport 85%. Guardant Health 29%. Canada Goose 45%. Inmode 40%. Southwest Airlines 40%. Viemed 32%.
My 5i membership has been a stalwart of sound reason over the years, and I’ve appreciated your take on some companies that nose dive, but you feel are worthy of hanging onto, even if it takes a year or more. (ROKU and PINS spring to mind). With some potential tax loss harvesting coming up, which of the following would you think could be a re-buy, and which could be saluted and sent off to oblivion after the sale? I’m consigned now to doing either.

Q: I'm an INMD shareholder and like most aspects of the company. The one part I don't love is mgmt's choice to hold so much cash and not buy back shares at these historically prices for the share price. In the recent conf call the CEO was asked again about buybacks and the growing cash hoard. He replied with some very non technical anecdotal examples of him seeing some random companies in the past that bought back shares and the share price never went up. So because of this he feels buybacks are not a good use of capital. He also states they are still looking for m&a. This makes me question the mgmt a bit. It makes me wonder if he's the best steward of capital for the company. Strong mgmt in the companies I own is important to me and something like this makes me wonder if he will end up chasing some m&a deal because they won't look at buybacks at such an opportune time for the company. What are your thoughts on the ceo's comments and do comments like this from mgmt make you second guess their abilities? Thx

Q: is inmode down just because its an israeli company or are there other reasons.
at 20 bucks it seems like a great buying opportunity. dave

Q: Hi group...If we assume the conflict in middle east is going to escalate. What are you thoughts on a strategy to take advantage ...I am thinking we might test last Oct lows...What your thoughts on this?.
I have $100,000) cash waiting to invest at some point... do you suggest entry soon? and if so what is your top 10 picks regardless of sector or market. Thanks for your insight

Q: Is the drop this week overdone in light if news of guidance cut and lawsuit. Would you continue to hold?

Q: Hi 5i team

I have investments in LLY and LNTH. Which among ISRG/INMD/ILMN has better potential for a 10+ year hold? and why?

Best,
Matt

Q: Between ATZ & INMD I best just pack everything in and switch to low cost ETF's.

Q: These names have been underperforming in my portfolio for some time now. Do you believe they remain attractive from these levels or are there more compelling names out there?

Q: Good day guys ..
small and mid cap stocks getting crushed here.. what names are appealing to u right now for 3-5 year holds .
thx
Mark

Q: Like everyone else I suppose I am looking for the next great idea. Is there a company or two on your radar that is impressing you with their performance/growth outlook? Maybe tempting you to initiate a report on? Bonus points if it is already profitable, and/or approaching 1 B market cap. Double bonus points if you could see the possibility of them initiating a dividend one day. Just looking to build a short list for further investigation before next year’s TFSA contribution. Thanks so much.

Q: From this list what would be your top 3 picks for buys right now with consideration of long term growth in TFSA? If you feel any other picks would make it in to top 3 (besides NVDA/GOOG) please include those as well.

Q: I'm down on all three of these stocks in my TFSA. Do you see any upside to these companies, or should I bail on them?

thank you

Q: Share price is still falling like a rock ever since reporting good numbers… what gives? Thanks

Q: I am considering the above companies. Are there any that you would not purchase at this time. Would you kindly order them in terms of quality and potential growth.

Q: ISRG,DLB,CROX,DG,OPRA,PDFS,ICLN,INMD,RTX,ALB ALLUS are looser which one to keep and which one not.
for TSE,CGY,EIF,NTR,
I know quite many stocks in one question but for a senior over 75 I find hard to take advantage of portfolio analytics as I am not tech savvy.

Q: Can you compare INMD and ISRG in terms of:
- Risk, Potential Upside, Management, Moat, and Overall?
If you can score them between 1-5, that'd be helpful as it helps me understand how they compare relative to each other.

Q: Can I please have your updated opinion on this company for capital gains over the next 5 years.

How would you rank it among LNTH,INMD,ILMN?

Q: I own these three stocks and for consolidation reasons was thinking of selling one, but only if it makes sense. In terms of your confidence level in these companies, is there a clear ranking of them or are all three of them pretty solid with equivalent long-term growth opportunities?

Q: I have some TFSA funds to allocate to stocks that have potential for significant gain over the next 3 years. Based largely on 5i content/views, thinking of INMD, LMN and DCM. Thoughts? Alternative options you may prefer?

Q: Looking to top up underweight positions in ADBE, INMD, META, SMCI held as part of a US$ account geared to growth. Could you please rank your preference for adding to the above at this time (10 being a very strong add at current prices) In other comments are welcome. Many thanks
