Investment Q&A

Q: Stumbled on a Morningstar article which pointed out these companies share prices are relatively low in relation to their fair value. Wondering if you comment on these and if you think they have some potential for gains. If there is some opportunity with these, can you rate in order of your preference.
Thanks

Q: Hi,
EVO is an etf recently launched which uses AI as a modelling strategy. Management charges 0.73%.
Can you tell us more about the team behind this etf and their track record as well as your thoughts on using their modelling using AI.
Thanks

Q: Enbridge announced 2 JV in late March. Would you comment on what will be the impact of these JV on revenues and debt. Good for short, mid or longer-term? Still hold or buy? Thanks a lot.

Q: How would you rank these four companies for potential share price appreciation in the next year?

Thank you!

Q: Ross this morning commented on Warren Buffet’s advice to buy index funds. This advice is aimed at the ordinary, non stock picking expert, of which group I consider myself a member. Because of this membership I have thought a lit about putting that advice into practice. The reason I didn’t do that completely is because of the development of 5i Investing. I can see by frequenting some of the investing forums, that you are head and shoulders above even the average sophisticated amateur investor. As you say in your advertising, we are not in this alone. I, and many others, i am quite sure, appreciate your experience and skill, and especially your willingness to share this with the average retail investor. We don’t get to say it often but i thought that I would take this opportunity to let you know how much your work is appreciated

Q: At current valuations what would be your top 3 picks, regardless of sector, amongst the available CDR's for a long term hold within the TFSA of a 26 year-old (top 4 picks if NVDA happens to be one of your top 3 choices). If you then also throw LMN, CSU, BA and ATD into the mix what would your ranking be (best to worst) along with your conviction/confidence level (10 = most confident, 0 = least confident) for each choice and a brief statement as to why. Many thanks.

Q: XIC and VCN. Which one of these two ETFs do you prefer and Why?

Many Thanks

Q: Good morning,

This weekend I came across this ETF that invests in private companies with the largest holdings being Space X. The 52 week action on tis is insane and I believe it is only a few weeks old in terms of being traded. What is your opinion of this ETF their strategy if any and the trade action in such a short time. Are there other more established funds out there that do the same thing? Would you buy something like this with some fun money? Sybol DXYZ

Q: I have cash available to invest which I am not ready to deploy into the market. However I want to avoid interest income from HISA and bonds. I believe you have mentioned some funds/accounts where the money is reinvested in a way to produce a capital gain rather than interest income. I’m not thinking of stock etfs like HXT which do not create distributions.
Thanks for your help.

Q: why is the management fee so much more expensive for Canadian ETF's?
XEG at 0.6%
vs
XLE at 0.09%
similar with XIU vs SPY as another example.

Q: can you give an up date. can they turn the corner? debt is high, would anybody buy this company ?

Q: Peter, I am a 75 year old active and avid stock picking DIY investor and have been pretty successful thanks very much to you and the staff at 5i Research. However, my wife has no interest and no knowledge to manage our portfolios if something were to happen to me. And with a nod to Warren Buffett I believe I would like to leave clear instructions that our stocks be sold off and the funds invested in a passive 80/20 equity/bond (or what split would you recommend?) all in one ETF that would provide for my wife for the rest of her life.
What ETF would you recommend for this? And is one truly enough?

Thanks. David

Q: I am considering small cap real estate if we do see interest rates subside.

What is your opinion of PLZ.UN?

Thank you

Q: I am interested in NXT at the current price of $52.ish but am puzzled at the recent drop from the $60.00 level which appears to be due to lack of volume once it hit $62.00. Is this still a buy or are there other possible reasons for the drop ?

Q: hello 5i:

thanks

Q: Greetings 5i, I have earmarked this company as a sale candidate to raise cash, timing is before the end of this year. Would you sell now into recent strength or continue to hold for additional upside, perhaps due to another dividend increase or other catalyst? Thanks.

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
I have been following this pet food company for some time. It has had some problems this past year. However this past quarter it failed to file returns and is in violation. The stock is at a low price but maybe a value trap or possibly contrarian play. I would appreciate your opinion...thanks immensely.

Q: Hi team
I am fully invested in BCE , for steady income and abit of growth, it has been hit by lower share prices

same goal, steady income and some growth

Q: Hello fellow 5i community,

New ETF investor question here. I have no experience with ETF's and therefore have none in my investment portfolio. Based on all the Q&A's and my own research, this is an area I need to get into. Can you please recommend your top picks (open to all suggestions both geo and industry - please rank) and how many ETF's would you recommend if also investing in individual stocks? (including % of a portfolio). Thank you
