Q: Hello Peter and team,
Can you expand on your answer please on Topicus and Nuvei? You had indicated these are good growth names but add when there is a sustained recovery in tech.. how does one gauge it? Do we use technical analysis and also it seems that yield curve may flatten should that not bode well for tech? With rising rates, banks are supposed to do well but i see a decline.. Is the view now that only short term rates will go up and long term may not go up much; lastly, do you think Abcellara is a good buy now?

Q: Hi 5I gang

I just want to confirm that thru this "risk on" period which will sustain for the foreseeable future, I am doing the correct thing by "holding" as opposed to "selling" these growth stocks.

Q: " It was a taxable spin off, but the deemed value was essentially zero. T3s are not always given in these scenarios. The cost base of TOI shares was determined to be less than 1 cent per share."

So, the deemed value of taxable spin off being essentially Zero, it's not required to be reported for Taxable Income in any form, for 2021 tax year - Is this the correct understanding ?

What should the ACB of the spin off shares used, when sold - Zero - For Capital Gain purposes ?

Thank You

Q: Hi 5i,

After being unable to receive a rational or timely response from my Investment Advisor(Big Bank) nor a return call from the company(CSU/TOI), I beleve other members have in the past asked this same question regarding the spin off value of TOI from CSU for tax purposes --- is the value of 'TOI' shares received deemed to be a 'taxable dividend' for tax purposes for tax year '2021? If so, should I have not received a 'T5' by now?

Thank you and confused,

Dean

Q: What are the best types of stocks to include in TFSA for long term hold (15-20yrs) with medium risk tolerance? Growth only or growth + income? Have heard that dividend stocks in TFSA can be good as income can compound over time tax free but if the growth outperformes the dividend yield would that not be better? Also could you include your top 10 Canadian picks right now for allocation in TFSA (sector doesn't matter)? Thanks

Q: Topicus has a press release revealing they are going to buy a tech firm that creates vertical market software for numerous markets in Poland. I’ve converted the $ to USD because I don’t understand the currency:

Offer price: $61 million
Annual revenue: $38 million
P/S multiple: 1.6X
Free cash flow per annum: $5.5 million

1) What do you think of the deal?
2) Did Constellation Software ever buy a public company? If so, when and what was the name or names?

Thanks for the great service.

Q: Hi Peter and Staff

In my basket of TECH, I have many losers that you have been high on(not your fault).

I have regretted selling "losers" that recovered sharply and sat on some that the opportunity cost turned out to high.

Are there any in the list above that the risk/reward of hanging on justifies not selling to top up positions in SHOP,TOI and/or CRWD that are also down.

Which order would you sell from the sell list and which order would you buy from the 3 buys

Thanks for all you do
