Investment Q&A

Q: Hello 5i
I want to re arrange my TFSA and seek your advice, I own a lot of Topicus in my TFSA and have been considering selling it to buy something else, for two reasons. First, it is close to CSU and I have a lot of that, too. so, I would like to delute that concentration. Also, I want a US company with high premiums that I can sell options on. My preference would be Nvidia. But, because Topicus has gone down so much, lately, I would like to get someting good that has gone down as much as it. Therefore I was looking mostly at Square. APPs might give me a faster ride. < in both directions, thought!> but Square might be more reliable for a retired person. Appreciate any suggestions and, as always, respect and value your judgement

Q: I hold TOI in a non-registered account. Is TOI considered a foreign company that would need to be reported on the T1135 tax filing form? I believe it is Netherlands based, but trades on the TSXV. Based on the fact that it is domiciled in Europe therefore it would need to be reported on the T1135 form. Please confirm.

Q: You probably have a lot of people who are shareholders spooked by the recent drop in TOI. I know you've all mentioned that TOI is for the long term and have also recommended it at the highs and also in the recent dip -- but it's also true that it's "losing momentum" even if it is a little bit. At what point should we be concerned that this is a prolonged resetting of the market expectations?

Q: Which do you think has the most upside in 2022? APPS, LSPD or TOI? Please list in order of preference. Thank you.

Q: Hi 5i,
I’m in the process of rebalancing my RRSP and TFSA and looking to be greedy while others are fearful.
Specifically moving TD, FTS, T, and LNF to an RRSP so that my TFSA can be growth oriented.
My remaining TFSA positions would be as follows:
- Half Positions: NVEI, EGLX, LSPD, WELL, U, APPS, BAM.A, SIS, DND, BYD, MITK
- Full Positions: GSY, TOI, CRWD, ATZ

I am planning to deploy as follows:
- Complete existing positions: NVEI, LSPD, APPS, U
- New Partial Positions: AT, XYL
- New Full Positions: DOL, SHOP, VEEV, ANRG, ATD, TIXT
Would you swap out anything on this list that would better compliment my existing positions? I have a 10+ year horizon so I’m leaning towards aggressiveness.

Thanks!

Q: Are you aware of any companies like CSU that have a tight float and respect of shareholders and dont get killed in a market correction like some other public tech companies?

Thx

Q: I have LSPD, AT, EGLX, AEM, and WELL as my higher risk positions. I am looking to consolidate these positions and maybe add TOI or NVEI. Out of the 7 stocks and at current prices what would your 3-4 top picks be for growth and price appreciation?

Thank you!

Q: Hello 5i,
My investments have grown nicely in 2021: thank you!
I’ve categorized the above assets into three buckets:
Technology: nvda,kxs,toi,csu =12.8%

Communication: goog,apps,kind =6.5% (goog is 5%)
Consumer discretionary: appl,shop,lspd =8% (lspd=<1)
Total= 27%
Please comment on outlay and provide ideas for improvement. Am I being too cute with my categorization buckets?
Many thanks for your opinion.

Q: Topicus is below $100. Would you view it as a buy today? What price would be consider as a reasonable valuation for a growth name like this?

Thank you,

Q: So I looked at my returns at the end of July and my TFSA was up 39% in 7 months. I'd have taken that as a decent return over 48 to 60 months. So early this week before the DnD acquisition and the Nuvei short report I sold DCBO, DnD, LSPD , because my 39% return was nullified. My thought was to add 3 of the 4 TOI,TSU,TFII,or TCN . Should I add 3 of the 4 and top up KXS and GSY in the new year or add all 4 of the T's?

Q: Hi,
Currently holding around 25% tech exposure, long term growth investor. If I wanted to de-leverage my portfolio and rebalance to some other sectors, how would you rank these tech stocks?

Do you have any fundamental concerns about any of the names held or is this a good list? NVDA is on my list of names to own as well. Thank you!

Q: Is Toi profitable? Txs for u usual great services & views

Q: If I recall correctly, there was a recent question on attractive price to enter for some stocks including Toi($105) Please send this item to me as I cannot locate it.Txs for u usual great services & views

Q: Over the past few months my portfolio portfolio performance has been really underperforming mainly due to short reports.

Yes, I had a 7% weighting in LSPD and a 6% in NVEI. So the drops as you can calculate has hampered performance.

If you look at the reminder of the balanced portfolio and the growth portfolio which of the holdings would you you think could be most vulnerable to another short attack?

Just to name a few:

BYD, DSG, KXS, GSY,TOI,DND,XBC,WELL??????

Any others?

Thanks

Q: Can you comment on any short covering in your small cap recommendations?

Q: Hello -

I understand the attractiveness of TOI stock - the management, the CSU model, growth projections, etc. However, I can't understand the current valuation. Even after the recent pullback to $108 (at time of writing), has the company's fortunes really increased by 72% within the last 10 months to reflect the increase to today's price compared to the beginning of Feb. last year? I realize stock price / fundamentals don't follow exactly in parallel, but that is quite an increase.

My other related question is on the sector itself. There just seems to be so many software companies out there. Is there an ever increasing need for software in the world to today that matches the increasing number of companies that offer it? In the U.S. there is a history of 3000 automobile companies at one time or the another. Only a tiny fraction exist today. I know this is an apples / oranges comparison industry-wise, but hopefully you understand my concern.

Thanks for your comments.

Q: Hi, My respected 5i team
Could you please recommend 5 solid names to buy in Canadian and US markets respectively when there is a market correction? Do you think it is a good time to buy them now during the current market drawdown?
Pls list the names in the order from your most favorite to the least. Thanks in advance!

Q: Please rank Toi, dcbo and lspd and would you buy one or all three proportionately? Thanks
