Q: Hello Everyone,
Looking at these two stocks, they seem to have excellent momentum. What are your thoughts on these companies and the space they're in. Have I missed the boat or do you think there is room to run. Also which one do you prefer.

Q: Hi 5i team, I know that you are not promoting market timing but I was just wondering what your thoughts are on the following; I am a young retired person with most of my financial needs met with my defined benefit pension. My investments are 100% in equities as I consider my pension to be the fixed income portion. Where the market has been so strong lately and with no recent correction do you think it would be wise for a conservative retired income investor to take approximately 25-50% of his investments and purchase good quality rate reset preferred shares with the belief that during a period of extreme volatility and market correction that these instruments would be affected far less than common shares? The only preferred shares I hold currently is ECN.PR.C. Please tell me if you believe my logic is flawed and if it is not could you recommend a few other good yielding preferreds or other instruments you believe would hold up well during volatile markets. Thanks again for all you do. Mario.

Q: I bought CSU at $110 ish in 2012 and sold at $600 ish in 2016, needed the money. I would like to buy it back for a five year hold. Is it a good time to but it now.

Thanks as always.

Thanks Phil

Q: Good Morning 5i, What is your opinion of Aqn, I purchased this stock after David Burrow recommended it a few days ago, and since then it keeps on going down. Are there any shorts on this Company. Thanks, Catherine

Q: Hi All at 5i! Have you heard of the Us based, work space company called WeWork? It bought space from Hudson Bay's holding , Lord and Taylor's . Does it trade on the Us stock exchange and do you have any opinion on it ? Cheers, Tamara

Q: Somehow I seem to be quite far behind in learning which portfolio stocks you sell and why you sell them. Am I missing something somewhere?
thanks for your answer.

Q: Clarification please: 5i's response to Edgar's question on how split corporations work was, "If a certain net asset value is not maintained, common dividends will cease to protect the preferred shares." The sentence sounds as though the preferred shares will stop being protected. Is it more accurate to say, "If a certain net asset value is not maintained, common dividends will cease IN ORDER to protect the preferred shares"? Sorry about the caps but wanted indicate the difference between the two statements. Thank you.

Q: Your analysis and commentary please on CRUS. Your input would be very helpful. I am looking for growth. CRUS has low PEG, good ROIC and seems to have attractive metrics. The market seems to be undervaluing CRUS and I wonder what I am missing. Thanks

Q: Could I get your opinion of these 4 stocks. Thanx Robbie

Q: Does CYB hold large stake in EFH and if so how do you view this holding?

Q: I understand that NVDA is a leader in this field. Would you chase it at these prices? How can one invest in this sub-sector - individual stocks or ETFs?
