Q: Hi 5i team,

Can you please provide some insights about Tucows which is one of the companies included in the 5i Growth Portfolio. I find very little coverage about the company even though it has been listed for quite many years. Do you consider this a value or growth play? What aspects of the business do you find attractive? What is your expected returns over the next 12 months? Thank you.

Q: Could I have your opinion on investing in FNM.UN as opposed to buying a REIT ETF or a few, individual REITs. The fund has a good yield, has been around for just over 2 years and is presently at a 6% discount to NAV. How would it compare to something like CAR.UN or Boardwalk?

Q: Could you please give me your opinion on painted pony? I am down over 40% on this one and I hold it in a non registered account. I would want you to keep in mind your risk/reward view; as of today. Would you prefer taking a tax loss and switching either to one of your preferred names in the sector or to something in your growth / balanced portfolio? As always, your opinion is highly valued.
Regards.

Q: There seems to be a lot of interest in this company from subscribers and I suspect this company has a lot of coverage by institutions and professional investors. My question is, if that is the case, is this a company that retail investors should invest in? What edge can they have? It seems to me that one would only want to invest in small or micro cap companies if one stood a good chance of making outsized gains. That typically means buying these companies before they get noticed.

Q: It would seem that A&W had a great quarter. Would you still put it behind Boston Pizza?

Secondly, it would appear that their results were released around noon. Isn't information like this always released when the markets are closed?

Thanks.

Q: As we are all aware the energy sector in seriously out of favor and will probably experience a U recovery and not a V shape. With that in mind how would you compare Cathedral Energy vs Trinidad Drilling. Which one of the two has the best chance of surviving this downturn. As a contrarian play which one do you think is stronger? Thanks as usual...
