Investment Q&A

Q: I've heard if there are 10 sellers to 1 buyer, it's time to hold your stomach and go all in.

If you were trying to determine the number of sellers of a stock vs. the number of buyers, what indicator or tool would you look to?

Q: Hi 5i Team - Could you provide an update on the fundamentals of Headwater Gold including cash on hand, debt (if any), insider ownership, quality of management. This company was mentioned recently on the Metals Investor Forum and sounds like it has quite a bit going for it including 10 projects, 100 % owned with some encouraging drill results. Also could you give your opinion on the upside potential of this company as well as the possibility of a need to raise capital for further exploration. At this point there are only 50 million shares which doesn't seem like a lot for a junior resource company. Thanks.

Q: Comment on ATD's Q3 earnings.

Q: In spite of a pretty good valuation, a not-so-bad quarter, and good potential Acuity Ads still continues to drift lower. A previous question on this company indicated that there might be some concern over management - that they were not too impressive. Could you provide your opinion on management and if they have what it takes to turn this company around over the next couple of years. Thanks.

Q: Will XSB keep going down so capital loss is greater than return in interest?

Q: Hi, I've looked on the web and can't find an answer to this question (Yes, I did Google it).

Are both of GOOG and GOOGL splitting or just one?

Thanks

Q: GUD will report on their earnings later this month. Do you see any optimism of a rise on the stock price? I'm trying to get a little traction before I sell it? Your thoughts going forward would be appreciated.
Thanks

Q: Is there a Palo Alto of Canada? Small cap, mid or large? Or would you stick with US names in this area?

Thanks.

Q: I sold several stocks in a non-registered account because of decent gains from buying early in the covid plunge. I believe these gains separate from dividends will be taxed as income, is that correct? If so, I'm thinking of giving some to charity to avoid paying taxes while helping a charity and I believe also being able to claim the donation.
I've never done this before, so is it complicated to do with online brokerages (I'm with BMO Investorline)?

thanks for any advice regarding this!

Paul

Q: Am thinking of selling my VZ shares to buy GOOG shares, so as to possibly participate in a GOOG stock increase when the stocks splits 20 for 1 in July. Of the 2 companies which does 5iR think has the better prospects for greater future growth and a brief explanation as to why. Thanks … Cal

Q: On March 11, in response to Norm's question regarding B2 Gold, you wrote, "BTO's profit margins for 2020 were 35% and its year-over-year revenue growth was 55%. For 2021, its revenue declined by 1.5% and profit margins fell to 24%." I need your help to understand the profit margin numbers. For instance, B2's AISC for 2021 was around $900 while they sold the mined gold for around $1800. Wouldn't the margin then be 100%? What I am missing here?

Also, you wrote, "It has improved on its balance sheet since 2020." The company is debt-free. Is that what you were referring to or something else? Please explain.

You have stated previously that the stock is cheap, and it pays a very healthy dividend. It is about 50 cents lower per share than its March 2020 share price while the price of gold is substantially higher. Do you attribute that to people shying away from the location of B2's mines?

There's a few questions in there.

Thank you as always for your service.

Q: Could you give me your outlook on this company and rate it in yerms of risk.

Q: Hello Team,
at the present state of the oil market how do you judge the prospects for CET and how do you rate the companies management proficiency?

Please comment on the similarities and/or differences of these two companies. I know you like ENB but could EPD be investable also?
Thank you
