Q: Hi 5i Team - Could you name a few start-up companies that have good management and decent growth potential as well as some cash on hand to fund operations, research and development for at least the next year, hopefully more. These would likely be companies that have not yet attracted analyst coverage and are low on the radar screen of investors. Any sectors in the U.S. and Canada are fine and market cap is not a concern. I feel that LMN and TOI might fit this description but I already hold them and am looking for some new ideas. Thanks.

Q: Hello,

TD believes that BN is only pricing in BIP, BEP and BAM and ascribing no value to BBU, oaktree, insurance and the real estate.

Do you agree? If so, this must be a deal of a century?

TD- After subtracting the market value of BN's stakes in BAM/BEP/BIP, the stock is ascribing negative value to the stake in BBU (~$1.75/share), real-estate (~$20.00/share), insurance (~$2.50/share), and carried interest (~$3.60/share). BN's ~$4bln of annual FCF provides considerable firepower to address the discount, although share buybacks must be weighed against the prospect of growing the franchise. We believe that BN's conviction in the intrinsic value of its stock price is evidenced by ~$750mm of TTM share repurchases and ~ $100mm of share purchases in the open market by the senior executive team.

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan, and Team,

Portfolio Analytics indicates an overweight position in Utilities where the current holdings are BEP.UN, CPX, and FTS. Only CPX is showing a loss, and the other two have substantial gains. In what order would you sell part positions, in order to raise cash for Consumer Cyclical? This sector’s holdings include ATD, BYD, and CCL.B. In what order would you add to existing positions? Please suggest other Consumer Cyclical stocks to consider starting a position, if you feel it would further diversify our holdings in this sector. Thanks as always for the pertinent advice.

Q: Hello 5i Team,

I have sold MG at the top, is it a buy at this level? the stock momentum is good, car sales are on the upward momentum in the US.

You have B+ rating on MAL, do you still feel positive after the last Q?

Would you add to an existing TIXT (loss position at this point) at this level representing now only 1% of my portfolio (given your B+ rating for the company)?

Q: How long do you think before AI starts changing things for companies? Where do you think we will see the first impact and what type of companies will be affected long range. I know this is a crystal ball question but your opinion of the future of AI and how we should prepare is highly valued.

Q: A while back there was question about DIR.UN and it was asked what was the catch that this company was paying an extra high dividend something along those lines. Your answer was that when the dividend was paid the stock would drop more than what the dividend was. I tried to find the question and couldn't. I noticed Dream is down considerably lately. Is this because of the dividend that was paid? I haven't noticed it in my account lately. Thank you and hopefully you can enlighten me on this.

Q: If the scenario plays out of higher interest rates for longer; is it logical to presume Reits, and Preferreds, -both sensitive to interest rates, may continue to soften. I have been buying them as they are going down but wondering if this is a good strategy. Could you comment. Thank you.
