Q: Estimates for recent quarter please.

Q: Hi All at 5i! I had purchased GC and TSGI for my kids TFSAs. Now with all the reports of money laundering, where are these stocks headed and would I be better off selling them and investing in LSPD’s potential instead? Thanks, Tamara

Q: I have both these stocks and am under water on both what is your opinion now on these socks buy sell hold and why? Thanks

Q: Hi Peter and 5i team,
We have 11% cash in our grandsons RESP (age 5) and we want to deploy the money. The listed stocks are currently in his account. What would be a good choice for a new holding or top up a current holding. Thank you for your great advice in the past.

Q: Hi Guys,

Should have provided a little more background on my earlier question about risk in the above Consumer Cyclical stocks.

1) I'm happy with sector weighting, and want to keep it at 15% ish. I want to hold these stock for 10+ years while they grow.

2) My view of risk was around which companies would be in trouble given company specific risk like bad takeover, too much debt...etc. I'm not concerned about market downturn as I've been through several and good companies will survive.

3) In order to keep my weighting I was looking for replacement ideas for the riskiest stocks.

Thanks,
Chris M

Q: With the guiding lights of 5iResearch, my portfolio value has reached all time high. I would like to express my deep gratitude to Mr.Hodson and his team for the great service, knowledge, education and support.
I am a DIY concentrated, unbalanced, buy and hold investor. Not all of my holding stocks fared so well and contemplate a Spring Weed Out. My losing stocks are namely TSGI (-47%, 2% of portfolio), TCL.a (-45%, 0.6%), IQ (-30%, 0.4%), PHO (-25%, 1.1%), COV (-13.5%, 1%), GUD (-7.4%, 2.5%), TOY (-5.1%, 4.5%), NFI (-4.6% 0.5%), and TV (-68%, 0.01%). Please kindly advise if any of the above holdings require chopping or double down and rank them in priority ? Please deduct deduct my question credits as you see fit. Thank you very much.

Q: Thanks to portolio analytics I am cleaning up my portfolio. I am looking at consolidating PHO and TSGI into one position. Which would you keep? Very long time horizon.

Also looking at adding to either DOO or TOY in our TFSA. which do you prefer?

Q: Hi 5i,
Looking to reduce some of the risk with the above Consumer Cyclical stocks, I'm currently at 14% portfolio weight with each of the stocks equal in sector weight.

How many would you keep, consolidate and/or replace with new to be sector diversified with less risk?

Thanks,
Chris M.

Q: Hi 5i! Although TSGI has somewhat stabilized in a 21$-25$ range, short interest almost doubled in march, from 4M to almost 8M at the end of the month. Also, the daily order book is constantly showing selling pressure and/or weak buying, with the number of sell orders being 3x the buy orders. I would appreciate your thoughts on this situation.
Thanks and have a good weekend!

Q: What impact will the Ontario Government changes to alcohol and gambling have on Great Canadian Gaming, The Stars Group and Park Lawn Corp?

Q: My grand children (<3 & <1 year-old) have the above 4 stocks in the RESP. There is money for investment in 2 more stocks (long-term). I would appreciate your suggestions.

Q: I sold this one with a nice profit last August when it rolled over and am now looking at buying it back as it seems to be resuming its uptrend. What prospects do you see at the moment and what factors contributed to such a steep sell-off when many other stocks in the gambling space like GC.TO did so well?

Q: Hi Team,
I noticed TSGI is in your balanced portfolio but it has not performed at all. Do you believe it can reach the previous highs of +$50 per share. It has exceeded the estimates three times in the last four quarters but expected to make less money than last year in the next two quarters. Thank You.

Q: Hi Guys, Would like your oplnion on these 2 Co’s.Are they buyable today.Many thanks Joseph.

Q: Good Afternoon - I currently overweight in Consumer Discretionary stocks and would like to trim the number of stocks held. I am a long term investor (10+) with a healthy risk tolerance. Which in this group are your favourites? Which would you sell first? Thanks. Janet

Q: Can you summarize what if anything we should take away from TSGI's guidance yesterday? It seems like it was designed to encourage the market but didn't quite have the desired effect. Was there anything new there and if so did it validate the decision a lot of us have made to hold?

Q: Right now all of my stocks are up expect for three which I am down significantly in: TFII. TSGI, PBH. I am thinking of taking my losses on these three. I realize that not all stocks in a portfolio will be up at the same time, but the market has been on fire lately with even boring stocks soaring, which makes me concerned that these stocks are down for a reason and will fall even more if we have a recession. What are your thoughts?

Q: Do you think Tsgi is turning around and has lots of room to run now, is it time to buy more? Thanks always

Q: Gambling is now legal in 8 US states and the trend is for additional states to legalize gambling. According to John Affleck, a sport journalism professor at Penn State, during March Madness, 47 million adults in the US will wager $8.5 billion, including 4.7 million adults for the first time. Much of this betting will be on mobile apps. Is Stars Group a player in this market and if so, how big a player?
How well are they positioned for future growth in the US market?
Also, does Stars have a robust mobile app or is the majority of it's businesses conducted on desk top computers?
