Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Unfortunately I am down over 50% on all these stocks (held in my TFSA). I am “cleaning house”.
Please give your opinion as to whether any have the potential to recover and are worth holding for a bit longer.
Thanks for your help.

Q: I have several small cap stocks which are significantly down in 2022. I need to harvest some tax losses. Can you rank these in on a scale of 1 to 10.....#1 being "Sell for sure", and #10 = "speculative hold for possible recovery".

Q: Hi,

Can you provide general comments on D2L's latest earnings release please?
Specifically, any concerns about their 3 month and 9 month adjusted EBITDA (loss) and their updated financial outlook? Other released financial metrics appear to be positive.
Is this still a long term buy?

What is your take on Andlauer's early warning report released Dec 7, ie..."agreements to sell an aggregate of up to 1,760,000 subordinate voting shares in the capital of the Company ("Subordinate Voting Shares"), representing approximately 9.64% of the issued and outstanding Subordinate Voting Shares, for investment purposes."
Almost 10% is quite a lot of shares is it not?
Is this still a long term buy?

I don't currently own any of these shares but they are on my short term watchlist.

Cheers,
Steve

Q: Hi Peter and team.
Significant losses in all of these over last 3-6 months. Would you bail out on any of them and what could I reinvest in 3 CDN and 3 US that have been similarly beaten down but have a better growth outlook ?
Personal account with a fair balance of 40% US securities currently.
Thanks for all the advice
Peter

Q: Good morning
I would appreciate 5i's thoughts on investing in D2L.
Does 5i have concerns on the company's governance in that CEO John Baker is also Board Chair (vs the preferred model of separating the two roles), had a loan from D2L that was repaid at the time of the IPO, and (I assume) controls decision making through the multi-voting shares.
Thank you for your comments.

Q: We have money put away for a 17-year old's growth portfolio (long time horizon of over 10 years, no need for income and willingness to take risk).
Portfolio already has VTI, SKYY, BYD, TSU & SHOP. Thinking of adding DCBO for the balance of cash. Would you endorse this? Or would you recommend a different holding?

Q: Hi 5i, the following is paraphrased from a BNN Market Call guest: "...1,000 clients, 15M users, in 40 countries. Combination of at-home, in-class, and mobile learning experiences that can be personalized. Long-term contracts, great revenue visibility. 90% recurring SaaS revenue, growing at over 20% per year. Trades at 3.7x forward sales. High quality, fast growing world leader at a discounted price."

Can get any comparisons to other companies in the space and whether the numbers above make sense.

Thx
