Investment Q&A

Q: Good afternoon,

Could you please pass along on how best to take advantage of rising copper prices both using an equity( s) and etf.
Same question as it applies to the semi conductor space.
Please feel free to deduct 2 credits as I have posed 2 questions.

Thank you,

thank you.

Q: Is Cielo Waste solutions Corp. business model stable or profitable now or in the future? Is it negative or positive Cash Flow now, if negative could it be Cash Flow positive in the future?

Q: Peter, I would appreciate your analysis of Hillcrest Energy.

It looks like it has rebranded itself as a clean energy co. (used to be Hillcrest Petroleum) which may be what has attracted investors, but what are its fundamentals like?

Q: It is my understanding that a 75% Capital Gain Inclusion Rate means simply that 75% of the capital gains are subject to tax. The percentage of tax owing is based on one's income. So if one's income was low enough the tax owed on the capital gain might be less than 75%. Brenda's question and your response seems to suggest otherwise. Please correct me if I am mistaken.
Thanks,
Jim

Q: Hi 5i,

I own RY; TD; BNS.

Would you sell BNS to buy EQB for diversification for a 5 year hold?

Capital gains not a problem. Any thoughts on EQB would be helpful.

Thanks

Q: Is it a red flag when a company has a consistently much higher depreciation and amortization costs on the cash flow statement than it has CapEx spending? I have been researching a small UK company involved in online fraud detection. It is in a good space but this is one thing which worries me, together with rather low cash return on invested capital. Any comments appreciated.

Q: https://www.google.ca/amp/s/finance.yahoo.com/amphtml/news/biohaven-bhvn-q2-nurtec-preliminary-152303082.html

Could you please comment on the recent results and based on these updated results have your previous concerns that you’ve mentioned in past comments changed for the better…would Biohaven be a take out candidate and with all the higher price targets, the insider buying by the CEO, what a your future thoughts on the company and their balance sheet if they keep this up. Would you buy, sell or hold here? and how would they be able to compete with other big pharma companies in the migraine space going forward?

Q: Like a number of other members I own a full position in BAM. Wondering if you could share your thought on BAMR.
1. What type of insurance company is it
2. Is it worth adding more money to
Does it have the same potential as TSU

Appreciate your opinion Thanks. Chris

Q: Hello 5i Team,
Which will be your first choice for a long term hold? Thank you

Q: This is more of a "HOW TO" type question. There are 2 strategies that I've been thinking may help me react to the next down event like Covid 19, 2023. One is to sell everything early and buy back in once the markets level out. The other is to just buy dividend paying stock and get paid while waiting for the inevitable return of the market.

So, if I adopt strategy 1, how would I actually go about it? It seems obvious there would be more sellers than buyers so would you simply sell at Market and hope you recoup enough $ to rebuild your portfolio, or would you use Limit (ie you feel the market will fall 20%, so set a low limit where you feel below it maybe to damaging or to low $$ with which to rebuild, but low enough where you may get more buyers than sellers using Market.

In strategy 2, the assumption would be No Economy could ever go to zero, there is always some companies who make it through black swan events. So how would I identify those dividend payers who could maintain their dividends or a portion of their dividend in dire market conditions?

Q: Do you see the current price as a reasonable entry point for TRI or would you recommend waiting for a pullback?

Q: Hi team,

Grateful for your views on these companies. Are the strong growth and dividend sustainable ?
Which is the best buy now ?

Gratefully,

Jacques IDS

Q: Re: IPl takeover. I already have a full position in Pembina ,and am ,at this point quite reluctant to trigger any capital gain. In looking at both offers, it seems that the Brookfield offer could be the best for me. Is there anything that I might be missing ? Thank you for your help.

Q: Peter,
can you comment on the Q2 numbers of AFM Alphamin Resources?
It looks like they missed on some operational numbers. With the price of tin going higher, is the stock buyable with the numbers released on 06 July?
Thanks
Ron

Q: Hi Guys,

These two companies, are quite similar in terms of total market cap, and both are in payment processing sector. are they overlap with each other or serve different industries? Could you help me to understand them? How would you rank them over all, future growth, and risk/reward, respectively. If to buy now, which one to start with? or divide the funds to buy both at the same time. Thanks.

Q: what can you tell me about this spin off- growth outlook, valuation, balance sheet.
My experience is you want to buy these BAM spins once the clean up trades are done.
thoughts?
