Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Hi guys...thanks for the service. Wondering if you can name 2-3 Canadian and U.S. stocks that you feel have been unfairly punished over the past months...that you feel would be very good entry points and may rally quickly...more so a trade rather than a long term investment....thanks.

Q: Good morning folks, I would like some food for thought regarding a TFSA. Over time my TFSA has morphed into a Tech account which isn't so bad given recent sector performance. I am generally pleased with overall portfolio balance but feel that some diversification in my TFSA would be advisable. Would you please suggest which sectors (ranked if appropriate) are best held within a TFSA with a bit of colour commentary. Thank you so much for your input. I find the Q&A section truly great brain food. Have a wonderful weekend!

Q: Hi group now that W results are out and the stock has settled down I am still confused they had another blow out quarter but the stock has generally sold off (except for several days of upward momentum. Then on Friday a really bad day (down 13% + on the week ) is the market saying that the arrival of a vaccine is the catalyst for the stock to sell off? seems awful early to be forecasting that consumers are going to leave this on line supplier because the vaccine is a game changer - appreciate your views and recommendation buy sell or hold and why ?

Q: Hi 5iTeam - I was checking Insider holdings for Kinaxis and noticed a net selling total of $64 1/2 million. The CEO increased his holdings in the summer but the CFO's holdings have steadily declined. Other officers hold close to 0 shares and the holdings of the directors are low. First of all is this information accurate and secondly is it a concern. In summary what is the overall insider holding of Kinaxis.
This question does not include options. Thank you.

Q: You mentioned in a answer to a members question that low interest rates make privatization of a company more attractive. Can you name a few companies on the TSX that would be interested in going private? Absolute is one that has been mentioned by 5i over the years. And when a company takes itself private is it usually at a premium to the stock price on the day of announcing a privatization?

Q: I just asked a question about comment/thoughts on an oil/gas stock then I came across your response to a question where you mentioned the 5i couch potato portfolio (is it published elsewhere?). The clean energy ETF has done very well ICLN-Q. Would you recommend it? It has certainly been on a tear. If yes, could it replace the oil/gas component?
