Investment Q&A

Q: In what order would you rank these stocks today for growth.What would you consider a good entry price for each?

Q: Hi Peter, Can you provide me with your best table pounding buy in Canada and your best table pounding buy in the US. Please provide reasons for the two stocks.
Thank you

Q: Hello Team,

Looking at updating/rejigging my TFSA account, are you able to rank the above stocks from 1 - 12, looking at a 3 year hold. These are a mix of some I hold and some I want to purchase. Not worried about size, risk and or industry. Thanks.

Q: Hi,
Both gsy and PRL seem to be similar businesses to me, although gsy is a lot bigger and more established. Which one would you figure is going to show more overall growth in the next 2-3 years? Thank you for your excellent service!

Q: What are your best ideas 5 in Canada and 5 in USA over next 2 to 3 years for capital appreciation ? Thank you RAK

Q: It appears that PRL reports and pays in USD. I hold it in a registered account. Trading on a US exchange is low volume. Do you suggest that I keep it on the CAD side or move it to the US side of my account?
Thank you.

Q: Hello 5i team,
I listened to the Propel conference call yesterday and two things I found interesting: 1) their dividend payout ratio is 22-23%. They mentioned there lots of room for growth. 2) Fintech adoption in Canada is only around 14%; which is much lower than other western countries. What are your thoughts on PRL going forward?
Thank you for the great service.

Q: I have been adding to my positions in PRL around current levels thinking that the results looked good and future growth prospects were promising. So I thought.
Yet while I have been buying PRL shares I notice that there has been heavy selling of shares by company insiders. I realize that shares could be sold for various reasons by cooperate insiders but my sense is that selling by insiders around the current share price has been extreme. It does not appear to be a vote of confidence in future growth prospects by company insiders. What do they know that we do not? I would appreciate your comments. If insiders are heavily selling the shares at current levels, why should we be buying or holding the shares.

Q: Hello 5i team, given events of this week, a lot of valuations have changed. I have a lot of CLS and am hoping it's a solid stock that got tossed into the penalty box due to a perception of it just being an AI stock.
If you had $10,000 today, and were looking to invest in high-growth over the next 5 years, how would you allocate it please? Or if that's too specific, please order the stocks from most to least favourable if bought today.
Thank you!

Q: Would you kindly provide 4 US stocks and 4 CDN stocks that would be your best bets today to increase in value by 1000% over the next 10 years. Thanks.

Q: Hi team,
How did PRL earnings look to you? Thanks,
Shane

Q: Read the Q&As almost daily for several years now.
Senior, retired and living on government pensions.
My question is about a growth-oriented TFSA cash allocation of about 10k or less than .75% of total equity portfolio. Will not need the funds for another 34 months.
Understand you cannot indicate position size or provide personal advice.
Current TFSA holdings in order of largest %age gain to biggest losers in TFSA is: TFII, TRI, DIR.un, DSG, KXS, LMN, TOI, TVK, EQB, DOL, DOO, PMZ.un, TIXT, REAL, S, HOT.un, EGLX. Top 10 are in excess of 1.50% of position size. Bottom six are headed for exit ramp in due course.
Across entire non-reg and TFSA portfolio am underweight Cons Cycl, COMMS, Industrials, Healthcare and international multi-sector.
Pondering adding to existing or a new TFSA position to add to the 40-plus I already have. So how would YOU allocate this 10K today?

Q: What 5 Canadian and 5 US stocks are currently the best to buy and hold?
Thanks

Q: Hi .. any thoughts on why the recent nice upward moves? Nice, but why?

Q: Dear Peter et al:

I know this is an unfair question! Asking you to rank order your favorite children :)

Plan to add some fresh funds in these stocks in an orderly fashion.
Any thoughts?

Please feel free to add any other small cap stock(s) that you think is as good as these favorites of yours!

Q: Could you rank the above stock to currently for a long term hold. Thanks

Q: i hold a number of these small cap names. I do not hold CLS or TVK. At current pricing what order would you add to these names, what names do you think are very attractively priced right now?

Thanks
Tim

Q: There have been increasingly persistent reports of provisions for consumer loan default by the banking industry; PRL is in the business. I doubt PRL earnings for the quarter just past - statement due shortly – will be affected but it might affect their outlook for the coming quarter(s). I think GSY found a way to deal with the issue although it had a very significant run down in ‘21/’22 and wondered if it was related and what PRL had or could do to address the issue and what you could bring to the table on that score. I look forward to your reply. Thank you.

Q: Hi, hold enough EIF that I want to divest and diversify. Looking for high growth over the next 4-5 years, but not as interested in dividends. I also hold a fair bit of CSU and gsy, so am thinking along those lines. What would be a good ranking for the following at today's prices (best to worst), and are there another couple additions you'd suggest? Big thanks!
DOL, BN, CLS, LMN, TOI, DRX, DSG, IFC, TRI, PRL, AFN, GFL.

Q: Hi Team,
I was looking at adding to either Bn, PRL , Eqb, or HPS.A. Or possibly a new purchase of Lulu for a recovery play here . Could you please rank these names in order which you would prefer to buy today for long term capital appreciation? If you feel there are better opportunities you prefer buying today ideas would be appreciated . Thanks
