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

Q: Correction**

Thank you for the answer on TIXT.

Looking for some clarity on your answer. A rating of A- would not be seen/interpreted as a hold to me. Especially given the stock is at more attractive multiples then when you wrote the report. So please elaborate on how you you now see the stock as a hold and not more of a buy?

Also, just confirming you think a good price for TIXT is $45 and at $30 it is very very attractive? Obviously a 33% and want to confirm that this is what you meant.

Thank you.

Q: I see PBH is in the Balanced Portfolio. Its share price has been falling since November 2021, just after the last earnings release. To my mind, those results seemed reasonably favourable, except for a small miss on estimates for per share earnings. What was your view of those results? You have often commented that one quarter is not an appropriate time to assess, but where do you see things going for the company from here? When do they next report? and what are the expected results? Last, the P/E is reported at 45 - has been that high historically and if not, why has it become so high? Thank you for your excellent service.

Q: I am down on average 50% on all of the 5 above noted US stocks. I am wondering how many of these you would consider averaging down on to buy more and hold for a recovery and which you would cut your losses on and sell now ?
I am prepared to hold all of them if their prospects of returning to previous highs are reasonably good within the next 12 months or so and as always value your opinions.

Q: Greetings All:
With regard to a question asked on Jan 9 by Cory concerning the above I have some further inquires. If any of you had 1 million to invest and wanted to keep it simple, as stated, and wanted to be fully invested, with a good degree of security ( As much as can be expected in the stock market) would you invest it in these two funds? What % would you have in each fund, considering you were investor " X " with no strings attached? Most advisors are currently preaching that 2022 will be the year when active investing will win, considering all the expected volatility and sector rotation. Also, if the growth rout continues off and on where could you see IWO falling to? I know this is a prediction question, but considering all the items in your knowledge basket, please make a guess. Please provide some equivalent S & P 500 fund names. I notice that no one at 5-i has an interest in IWO.
Thanks as always,
BEN.

Q: I have owned this Mawer fund for quite some time and have been very happy with its performance long term. Can you please explain the large drop in December in a little more detail? I know you said they “paid a distribution” I just don’t know what you mean by this and why it seemingly cost me a chunk of money. Thanks for walking me through this!
