Q: Hi 5i:

Can the Price to Earnings ratio (P/E) be used to determine the valuation of these yield plays or should I be looking at the Net Asset Value (NAV) instead?

Using P/E they rank cheapest to most expensive as: DFN, FIE, ZWC and EIT.UN. Is that accurate and if not, how would you rank them, cheapest to most expensive?

Thanks in advance,
Greg.

Q: hello 5i:
Long time since this company has been asked about. Is there potential there as a return-to-normal play? Is the consumer discretionary apparel space of any interest at all, or are there too many pitfalls? I'm looking for a sector that hasn't, as yet, taken off after the covid drop. Already own AC, and if people are going to travel, don't they want new clothing?
thanks

Q: It seems one of the larger global concerns is supply chain management with obstacles from natural disasters (eg wildfires in Canada, flooding in Europe) to parts shortages (eg semi conductors) severely crimping the flow of goods. What would be the best investment approach in light of this concern? 5i's has in the past suggested DSG and KXS as suitable investments for example.

My thanks.

Q: Hello,

Could you please recommend a few 'set and forget' high growth stocks which would be a good fit for a RESP for the next 15-ish years?

Thanks

Q: I keep seeing CRWD come up as a good growth holding. I own the holdings mentioned earlier today in the 3 Cdn and 3 US growth recommendations, with the exception of CRWD. I'd have to sell something to buy it and own both UCTT and ICHR. I am wondering if there is some overlap between these two and whether selling one to buy CRWD is a good move - and if so, which one would be the better sell. If not, looking at CRWD peers, I also own PLTR. Would CRWD be a better growth holding than PLTR and warrant a switch?
