Investment Q&A

Q: I just finished contributing to a full position in HPS.A. I'm looking to start contributing to some of the smaller growth companies that your group recommends. I’m considering DRX, CLS, TVK, TOI and LMN. In what order would you recommend and what price to buy for the next 2-3 years.

Q: Can you rank in order the top 10 small caps that you feel have the most potential over the next 6 months and provide a quick statement on why each is included?

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: I learned of something that I had never heard of before when someone adked 5i's opinion of "the magnificiant Seven Companies" and learned they are American companies. Also was impredded with your answers of why they made the list of 7.

This leads me to ask what 5i's opinion of what would you say the Mannificiant Seven Canadian companies been in the last 7 years with the expectation that they will be still in busines 7 years from now?

Q: I'm going to sell OTEX. What would you replace it with?

Q: I would like to add to the listed stocks, at current valuations, for a 3 year hold. Would you please rank in order of buying the ones you are ok with adding to at current prices. Thank you

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: 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: In preparation for putting proceeds of PLC tender to work, can you please rank these stocks for potential total return over a 5-7 year timeframe and taking current valuations into account?

Q: What would be your best 3 Canadian growth companies for the next 3 years, regardless of category?

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

Q: It seems that small cap stocks are finding some legs. Could you provide 4 CND, 4 US and and some EFT ideas that might be able to take advantage of this trend

Q: The stock is down $17 from its recent high. Do others investors see cracks in the armor and recognize the cycle of the business?

Thx

Q: Anything in the cc to account for the drop after the the jump at the opening?

Thx

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: If you owned sleep country shares would you sell now or continue to hold with the hope another company steps in with a higher offer than fairfax? If selling is the answer could you suggest some of your current top ideas for reinvesting? I’m a buy and hold for the long term investor with a moderate tolerance to risk and like to own high quality companies. Thank you

Q: Could you please comment on the earnings release and stock's valuation. Do you think market will take notice of the solid results and guidance, in light of the negative sentiment for a couple of days, surrounding AI related companies ?

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: I was doing a high level look at my portfolio in terms of recent vs 3, 5, and 10 yr CAGR and saw what I expected from stellar performers like CSU, TRI, WSP, IFC and DSG. What surprised me was seemingly declining longer term performance (ie pre-dating interest rate changes) from FTS, QSR, GIB.A, and EIF. The balance of the portfolio is holding it’s own or is cyclical or I can see a path to renewed growth/performance. Are the four named really lagging or am I looking at the wrong metrics? If you agree they might be considered to be faltering versus past performance can you suggest “growthier” replacements without going too far out the risk scale? Thank you.

Q: IS CLS A GOOD BUY AT CURRENT PRICE? IF NOT WHAT WOULD BE A GOOD ENTERY PRICE? BUY, HOLD OR SELL
