Investment Q&A

Q: Just wanted to say it is a good thing that 5i was and is consistent with answering questions for many members.

It has become obvious to me that many members can only see 1 way of making $$$ and they depend on others to direct their investing thoughts for them. Considering we all do not have the time or interest to do otherwise 5i is of great value to them.

Myself, who has posted both here and in the Forum about the cannabis stocks, have always said they were traders only in my opinion.

This is the 2nd or 3rd (memory) time they have had momentary spikes over the past ~ decade.

Personally I invest for the very long term (+20 years), use DRIP's, shorter time frames & have the ability to Day Trade when I see obvious profits.

I have made enough trading the Cannabis stocks to cover my 5i membership for the remainder of my life +++.

Thanx for the steady hand you present to all the "Investors" of varying abilities.

Q: May I have your assessment of WCN. Is it priced for perfection at the current price (close to 52 week US high) ?

Thanks, Tim

Q: I'm helping my daughter (mid-20s) manage her TFSA, which is her only portfolio. Currently, it consists of IPL 30%, TOY 28% , SIS 18% and KXS 23%. She’s wants to keep TOY, SIS and KXS, but is thinking of selling IPL. She is more interested in growth stocks. Do you consider selling IPL a good move or is it best to keep it; and, can you suggest 2-3 other stocks to add to round things out, given the other holdings. She's looking at a minimum 3-5 year timeframe.

Q: Could you please comment on PLI's 'analyst day' news on Monday and why the substantial drop in the share price since.
Thank you for your excellent service.

Q: Hi:
CM is trading above $100 lately. In the past, banks have tended to split above $100. Any rumours of this happening with CM?
Thanks: Jerry

Q: I sold some of my TNC at a profit and bought some ARZ and some ITC. What do you think of these three companies and which ones will have the most potential going forward?

Q: Hello,
Can you please give us your thoughts about oil price at the moment (supply / demand, political aspect, 12 - 24 months outlook). Thank you.

Q: Hi!

I have a portfolio that has a few names I have held for some time that could be described as laggards and I'm not sure which of the group I should get rid of and deploy proceeds into something else. From the following list which stocks should I sell and move on from: CVE,TOU,SGY,AVO,G,ECA,QST,ALV ???

Q: Given the speculation about upcoming US rate increases and the impact of the Nov.8 US election, I have lost significant valuation on ETFs and bonds across my portfolio.

Is there an expectation that these values could fall even more precipitously in future?

Is it truly wise to remain ‘in bonds’ at this time, even after losses so far?

Is there any hope these could improve in future or is the long term prospect dismal?

Q: I own PWF.PR.L, RY.PR.O, BMO.PR.Z about equal amounts for a total of $150K which is about 5% of my holdings. They have been softening recently, is it time to sell and what would recommend? I have about 20% in bonds and balance heavily skewed to finance, utilities, infrastructure.

Q: What a great pick by 5I @ $5,but its 2 recent events bother me as similar pattern to the 3 below companies.Stock went up sharply over time & then insider selling near or at new high for their"good & valid"reasons.PHM & ACQ are at much much lower levels than the insider sale price.NFI went down but have since recover due to good reception to its subsequent Q results & more business.SIS--insider selling @ $11.34 on Nov 14 & yesterday forecasted EBITDA & Revenue below street estimates.Would it be safe to assume that management already has the above forecasted figures in hand prior to selling.Is this fair to investors?

Q: Colliers has been in a free fall. What's wrong with the company?

Q: How do these robo advisers work? Are you ok with these for a passive investor? Any concerns to these kinds of investing?

Thanks for your great advice as always,

Henry

Q: I have lost about 3/4th of my investment and was holding on for better days. With the recent announcement about coal-fired facilities, I'm wondering whether the tobacco in my pipe dream is finished.

Q: Hello 5i, between these energy companies, TRP, ENB, PPL.un , and IPL.un, KEY, which of the following companies would you recommend buying now for a long term hold?
Please advise from best to least liked, or please advise if you would have a different recommendation of the energy sector companies? Thank You.

Q: Recently took position in Savaria, but with your last comments on Nov 22nd " Shares may see some weakness but the trend is still going the right way for SIS" should I get out now with minimal loss and buy back later at a potentially lower price?

Thanks for the info

Q: Wanted to thank Peter and the 5i team for persistently reminding readers that the weed sector is high risk and should be avoided by investors. Looks like most of the suspects in the sector are now down 50% from their highs with no support in sight. Anyone subscribing 5i's service has paid for their subscription 100 times over by avoiding these devastating losses while existing weed shareholders are in panic mode. Well done, 5i, you are worth your weight in gold and platinum.

Q: Thoughts on latest Amaya drama? Seems like this is more of a David Baazov drama but nonetheless frustrating. I thought it might affect Canaccord negatively but seems like at this point it's just AYA taking the hit.

Q: any idea why down so much today? Is this an opportunity to buy more at a low price? Shouldn't management have responded to offer by now?
