Investment Q&A

Q: Trevor’s qsn today: TOI is mentioned twice. Then, as BN owns more than 50% of BAM, could you choose another company? Thks

Q: Hi 5i,
I've held GSY for a number of years through both steep increases and steep drops, and currently am up 24%, including dividends. I've been heartened seeing it recover from the $90 range to its current $165 or so, but wonder if it's got much more in the tank...?
Maybe just an itchy trigger finger, but I'm mulling over selling 1/2 of my GSY and using the proceeds to purchase PRL - the rationale being to spread the investment risk allocated to such lenders between two companies rather than having it all with one, and also for the prospect of greater capital appreciation and dividend return over 3 years or so for the share of the funds put with PRL.
What do you think - wise move or unnecessary fiddling with a good thing?
Thanks.
Peter

Q: Can I please have your view on SHOW?

Q: I have owned the various covered call BMO eft's since 2017. I understand how they work and I am not surprised that with some of them my capital investment is lower now than the purchase date (Even though the markets are setting new record highs). I feel that I may be leaving money on the table if I compare these ETF's to the Hamilton covered call units. I could basically double my Dividends by making a switch to the various offerings of Hamilton (SMAX or HMAX for example). My question is regarding
how the covered calls are processed. Hamilton is At the Money. Does this mean that in a market downturn, they will take even longer than the BMO covered call products to bounce back? I think some of the BMO covered calls are still lower than 2017 due to the nasty downturns we have had-particularly the covid period. Just trying to get a handle on the implications of a switch.

Q: Please give me some guidelines about the type of companies preferred in TFSA, RIF and non registered accounts. I am particularly iinterested in guidelines related to tax efficiency and it's overall effect on results.

Q: Where can I find any information or the best write up you've seen on Mastercard or VISA's "value added services". Stuff outside of their payment network everyone knows about.
I basically only ever find information on the payment network and then descriptions of the value add stuff is super short and surface level only.

Q: Thoughts

Q: Good Day,
I currently hold CNR and JPM in my RRSP. I am considering selling CNR and topping up my JPM position with the hopes of increasing the growth profile over the next 5 -7 years. Do you believe that JPM should outperform CNR moving forward?
Thank you.

Q: You often refer to the Return on Equity (ROE) to evaluate companies. Can we find this metric in the Company Profile section or elsewhere? Is ROE similar to the inverse of the P/E ratio, i.e., E/P? Thank you

Q: Hi team,
The last question on this company was 3 years ago.
Could you please give me your current assessment on the recent (five year history of) performance and future prospects? Also would it be a good candidate to consider investing now, as it is reportedly using AI ?

Q: Several of these stalwarts have taken significant falls as of late. Are any of these compelling buys? Are any generational opportunities ? Can you rank which order you would be and add a level of conviction to each once (10 being a table poounding but)?

Thank you

Q: 1) If you could only hold 10 names from 5i’s Balanced portfolio with the aim of maximizing total returns over 10 years, what would you choose?

2) Same as previous question, but the 10 names can be any security, Canadian or U.S.

Thank you!

(Public question)

Q: I own both bell and telus. I would like to sell one for a tax loss but am not sure which one to sell. Which one has the most potential grown, preservation of its dividend, and safety?
thanks

Q: I have automatic dividend reinvestments (DRIP) in my TFSA and RRSP but not in my nonregistered account. If I sell a fund in my nonregistered account for a tax loss but I also hold it in my TFSA, will the capital loss be disallowed because of the drip in my TFSA?
thanks

Q: Are Canadian gold stocks undervalued? Which have the best upside potential in the next few years

Q: why doesn't the whole telecom sector not do great with the rates so high and no completion ?
thx James

Q: I would like to sell BEPC for a tax loss. I am looking for a proxy that is of the same quality. I do plan to eventually rebuy BEPC after the 30 day period. Any ideas?
thanks

Q: Hi Team,
I was debating taking a position in VRT. However, I am way overweight in NVDA at the moment in my portfolio. I was wondering if VRT is a stock that will be highly correlated to AI, and might track the sector same as NVDA? Perhaps they are too closely related to hold both? Or do you feel they are different enough that I should be holding both? I have been hesitant to trim NVDA for other AI plays simply due to the fact that NVDA seems to be the clear leader in the space and why sell the "Best"? Your thoughts please. Thanks

Shane.
