Investment Q&A

Q: Peter and Ryan: Firstly let me congratulate you both on the launch of i2i and I look forward to your information rollout in the near future.
While I wait maybe you can give me some direction on two US stock that are dragging down my foreign portfolio. Both EBS and CHGG have preformed poorly this past month, should I cut my losses and redeploy elsewhere or hang in and wait?. I am open to new ideas and have a high risk tolerance.

Q: Hi 5iR, What would be your top 3 Canadian Natural Gas O/G junior to intermediate companies? Am looking for companies with at least 60% NG production, i.e. TOU at 82% as an example. In addition, if there is some 5iR expertise on the US side what would be your top picks there?
Thanks as always 5iR.
Cheers, Chris

Q: Hi Peter and Team,

I am a newbie here and really impressed by how appreciative members have been to the service you guys provide.

I have very small positions in both AC and GIB.A, and would like to consolidate to one for a long term hold. Could you please rank the two and also provide brief explanation?

Thanks for your insight!

Q: You had mentioned they may do a financing.
With the values mentioned, what do you think are the odds
of a financing percentage wise and usually is it done in 1 or 2 days
after the deal?

Thanks

Q: Reading your answer/comments on their latest quarter where you say, "we see no real concerns from the quarter"; by using the word "real" this statement implies to me that there are some concerns as opposed to saying; "we see no concerns..." . If that is the case that there are some minor concerns, what might they be? Thank You

Q: Hello 5i,
This is a comment in response to the question Dale posed earlier about Norbert's Gambit. If I understood his comment correctly, he uses N.G. for CAN. to USD conversions, but can't for USD to CAN.
I use N.G. for both, but mostly for USD to CAN. and I wonder if it is more a function of his broker? I use RBC Direct Investing (for better or worse), but I do find that I have no problems with using Norbert's Gambit at all. The first time I did it, I called D.I. for some help and they were fully aware of the process and had absolutely no qualms about it as a currency exchange mechanism.
Perhaps if Dale posted to the Forums, those of us who use it both ways could offer some suggestions?
Hope this is of some help.
Cheers,
Mike

Q: I was confused by your answer to the Q "Norbert's Gambit appears to work well to convert CAD to USD. However, this Gambit does not work for the reverse conversion. Do you have any suggestions as to how to limit your foreign exchange conversion fee, while limiting risk, when converting from USD to CA" .........why would converting from USD to CAD less efficient than CAD to USD using Norbert's Gambit?

Q: I am considering selling KEY for a tax loss. In this context which company would you suggest as a proxy to buy in the 30 day period before KEY could be bought again, without offending the CRA in terms of superficial selling.

Q: I had a GIC come due last week in my RRIF, which is managed by an advisor.
They advised buying a bond fund, Dynamic Edge Conservative Class A, MER is 1.89%. What do you think about this fund, it is a fund of funds?
What would you suggest ( for a senior) as an alternative. The amount $30,000.00. The GIC rate is about 1%.
I value your opinion.
Shirley
I really value your advice, as I am a senior

Q: Please give me your view of Apple. Has it got room to grow yet or has it more or less flatlined. Does 5G have an effect or is it big enough to work with or around it.? Do you think there will be a rise after the pandemic? Your input is valued.

Q: Hello Peter,
I thought Electrovaya's numbers were decent and yet stock sold off. Was this sell on good news and do you think it has potential in energy space? I have small position on Xebec but was wondering to raise to full position as opposed to buying Greenlane for diversification? Also, any reason why Enwave is chugging higher as your previous comments were not that positive. What has changed? Finally, is it too late to enter Shopify? i am sort of glad to have held onto blackberry and finally got a bit of pay off today.. I am just wondering if Knight may do same in the future by surprising the market with good news (I know one cannot forecast but based on its history as a company it has not done much.). Thank you.

Q: This ttl return bond fund is half corp bond and about 1/3 prov. bond. It seems to have low volatility. Can't find anything about duration. Is this fund suitable for the times?

Q: In the last two months this stock has fluctuated by over 50%. Is there a reason(s) why this huge variance for the past three trading days?

Q: Good morning,
Looking to add TSU to my TFSA. It is more expensive than other insurers but seems to be more of a growth story than the others that I consider more as income stocks. They have had good results and the outlook still indicates further growth. Can you provide a few more details on this company? Do you know management or background?
Hard to find growth that is not TECH.
Thanks
