Q: Hello 5i Team
Using Nine Point Energy Fund as an example, when the company has three versions of a mutual fund (Series A, Series F and an ETF) how are the portfolios structured? Are the funds structured as three separate accounts (i.e. the portfolio manager purchases the same security in three separate accounts) or are the funds held in one common account (i.e. the portfolio manager purchases the a security in one account) and the returns/expenses calculated as proportional amounts?
Does either method have an impact on fees or the liquidity (using the example where the EFT version is smaller in value than the Series A or Series F) of the funds?
Thank you

Q: Can't stop, won't stop. Like 5i, I like momentum.

Thanks for the recommendation a while back. I'm approaching a double and position size is still reasonable at 3.5%. Is a top up to ~4-5% reasonable given the momentum and outlook or do you think it remains a bit too risky to increase position size? Note that I stop buying a position at 5% and let them run to 7-10% before trimming, so topping up to 5% would put ECN as my third largest holding after CSU and GSY.

Q: Hi Team,

I've been looking at DNTL. It seems they have a similar model to WELL, DOC and DND, in that as it appears their growth will largely come from aquisitions. I would think the dental industry would be a relatively stable business so, to me, looks like an interesting addition to my TFSA. Beside debt (for aquisitions), what are the main risks here? Is it too early for dip your tow in here? What are your general thoughts on the company.

Thanks

Dave
