Investment Q&A

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

Q: Jason D. mentioned PRL uses AI & credit unions to make loans rather than the usual face to face. Presume there are cost savings. Can you expand on these details?

Now that GSY has reached a loan book of $4bill. & has a $6bill. target for the end of 2026, can you make a guess as to what that might mean for earnings? Has there been a relationship on their journey from $1bill. to $4bill.?

Jason D. mentioned whispers CSU is getting set to do another spinoff. Hear anything? Maybe that accounts for current weakness in LMN.

Q: The Ukraine Recovery Conference happening in Berlin had me wondering how someone might be able to participate in reconstruction as an investor, beyond a Ukraine-specific ETF.

This of course assumes a Russian defeat and (hopefully) longer term stability.

Q: Good morning,

I currently own a number of different energy stocks of which most are in the OIL sector. In this current investment environment, the Gas sector seems to offer a better risk reward ratio and I would like to better balance my Oil/Gas stock split.

Question 1. Do you agree that Natural Gas stocks currently offer a better potential return than OIL stocks over the next few years?

Question 2. If so, which of the these OIL stocks would you replace with Natural Gas stocks?

Question 3. Which Natural Gas stocks are currently your best ideas?

Thank you for your sage advice.

Q: Could you provide your opinion of Magna vs Linamar?
Historically MG seemed in the lead and had a better dividend. Since the Russian invasion of Ukraine - their investments in Russia were blamed for non-performance.
Also, since then LNR seems to be doing substantially better signifying the sector is doing ok.

Has MG lost its MOJO, had its day and becoming a value trap? (all cash flow going towards dividends, taking on debt and eroding stock price).
Thank you

Q: My TFSA is comprised of EIF (up), WELL ( down) and LMN ( up ) in equal amounts and is 4 % of my total ( cash and RRIF ) portfolios. I am not afraid of risk in my TFSA. I am looking at replacing EIF with HTA with the eventual goal of having HTA as my sole RRIF holding. I hold HTA
(5%) and EIF (2%) in my other portfolios. I like HTA for the combination of tech with high income. EIF has been good to me over the years but has been in decline for quite some time. Has something fundamental changed with this company ? HTA would be my only tech holding amongst my portfolios being almost 10% of value. Does this approach make sense?
Thanks. Derek

Thanks to the 5i team
