Thanks for this service

Q: Hi 5i Team,
I will be adding to one or more to small existing positions in either VRT, CELH, AMZN, BKNG, and or NXT. Could you please list in order of preference for addition at this time and considering a decent time frame and high risk tolerance. A short comment on the pros and cons of each would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Q: You have often noted your preference for investing in stocks exhibiting positive momentum. Do you promote this strategy to obtain the best price for the stock - i.e. not buying a failing knife or to ensure that the stock being purchased has a solid following with other investors and therefore a "good future"? I reference CELH and VRT in this question in order to determine the best way to purchase these stocks as both have been declining significantly for a short time ( although I think any volatile stock could be used). There is no question in mind that I want to buy both. Normally, I would wait to see their prices turn north before buying but both have shown in the past that a 10% - 20% one-day rise is not impossible. So is a partial buy-in called for here and risk missing in on a one-day big jump? Or is it best to see positive momentum first in case the stock isn't coming back?

Appreciate your insight.

Q: Why the big drop in price today on CELH?

Q: Can you please comment on FIVE and your recent thoughts on its most recent quarter. Do you think the recent decline in price is an attractive entry point? Or do you have other ideas/recommendations that you have higher conviction in. Thanks so much!

Q: All of the above companies have now reported thier respective quarterly results in the last two weeks and their respective prices adjusted accordingly.

I appreciate that all have been suggested by 5i in response to numerous and varied questions. Based on your overall assessment, the recent results and forecasts and their respective pricing as of todays date, would you be able to rank them for acquisition together with a brief comment please.

Regards,

Terry

Q: Hi folks,
I am looking to add either PRL or CELH to my TFSA. Primarily looking for growth. May I have your opinion as to which one you think has the best growth profile going forward.
Thanks

Q: Hey thanks for suggesting this name - I bought it yesterday when it fell and boy is it ripping today. Looks like a future Monster Beverage type of stock. Thanks.

Q: please review the results. is it still a buy after a miss?

Q: Can you provide your top 5 growth stock picks over the next 6-12 months and provide commentary on why each is worthy to make the list. Appreciate getting separate Canadian and US lists.

Q: Good day,

Did a huge portfolio makeover a few months ago, almost entirely with your picks (minus a few that didn't click for me) and some of my high own high conviction names. For the most part, they've all done pretty well, with the exception of the last few weeks.

1. Is the last few weeks just overall uncertainty/retraction?
2. bep and bip are down ~15%, is it worthwhile getting out and averaging down BAM or BNS?
3. ATS and CELH are down after large runups after I bought. worth buying/averaging down on one of these?
4. DCBO and NXT back to scratch after huge runs. Do you expect those levels to return? Timeline wise? NXT spun from FLEX, but Flex continues to climb
5. KXS is down 8%, and seems pretty spikey over the last 5 years. Just wait for the next one? Should this start to create more of a steadier trend upward?
6. I bought POWL, and it's basically done nothing, thoughts on the company now? alternatives?
7. I saw a youtuber vid that really loved POET for the coming months years. I was telling a friend about it yesterday because I like (and understand) the technology and what it could do. He literally bought some while we were talking yesterday morning and he's up 30%... Are the company fundamentals/contracts improving? or could it just be hype from youtubers and the like?

Almost all of these had some pretty significant periods of running since I rebalanced in Jan/Feb. I know market timing is not a solid practice, but in a lot of these growth names, at what point is that jump worth moving on from, freeing up some cash for another opportunity down the road? And how do you determine whether it's time or not?

Finally, in the event that your attitudes have changed on any of these, do you have a top 3 CAD, top 3 US new ideas over the last few months that have really turned the tide/become strong buys that I may replace/add?

Thanks for everything!

James

Q: I'm down 15% on this stock, your recommendation please KEEP/SELL ?

Q: Hi team,

About 6 month ago, you provided a list of 10 stocks you considered "high conviction" buys. Thus, I bought VRT, HPD.A, LLMN. I have no regrets so far....for good reasons.
Grateful if you would provide your actual high conviction list, both in Canadian and U.S. stocks, indicating your order of strongest conviction.

Gratefully,

Jacques IDS

Q: In any otherwise well diversified RIF portfolio I am considering exiting T and BEP.

I am looking to replace them with a couple of holdings that you feel have far greater upside in the next 3-5 years (realizing that the volatility may increase to some extent but in line with the potential for greater returns).

I have referred to several of your current favourites (which we do not currently hold) as potentials and am open to other suggestions you might have along the same lines.

If you could comment on the elimination of T and BEP and also if you believe any of the listed ones (or others ) would provide a substantially better risk/rewad profile over the next 3-5 years it would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Terry

Q: At present What would be your top six stocks to buy for a 90,000$ TFSA contribution for sustainable growth.Any suggestions as to how to stage the purchase.?
Thank you for your remarkable service,Andrew

Q: Hi 5i,
Just a quick follow up on Marco's question concerning Celsius.
Was there anything released in the March 15th update that is having an impact on Celsius's contraction. Something along the lines of giving over to Pepsi Co some earnings?
In the Globe and Mail there was massive insider selling, up to that announcement in March. Was that a coincidence?
What is the current short position on Celsius? How has this changed over the last three months? Is this short position high or low for a company with a market cap of $17B usd?
I know you'd rather we 5i'ers not buy/sell or grow positions around earnings; however, if something significant has changed, should we wait and see what Celsius reports to get more details on the expansion with Pepsi co and how that will impact Celsius's bottom line (Earnings rather than Revenue)?
TIA!

Q: Hi is it time to move on from CELH?. I bought recently and down 16% already. Can you please advise if it's a sell, hold or add and why. Thanks

Q: I would like to put some money to use. I have put the above list together. Can you rank which ones you would purchase from 1st to last?

Thanks
