Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I have some cash to deploy. Do you think yesterday's shift into 'other' stocks is a meaningful moment? I am not looking to sell any of the big US firms (GOOG, NVDA, etc.,) that I hold but wonder if it is an opportune time to put some of this money elsewhere. I am specifically looking at the US market and the move yesterday into RH and the like. Any sectors or specific stock suggestion that might fit this theme would be appreciated. I am thinking of US mostly, but not exclusively. Thank-you.

Q: Hello Team,

Looking at starting a new position in a few of the 12 companies tagged. Can you rank from 1 to 12 on which companies you think is the best to start a new position in. No worries on size, industry or risk, looking for capital appreciation only over the next 3 years.

Thanks again!

Q: Hello,
I thought given the news about Goeasy's ceo change (uncertainty) would have moved some investors to propel holdings.. Also, what is holding the stock back? The market is moving higher today but propel is hardly moving... also, any news on Topicus.. The stock is at a standstill with few trades taking it higher than it dips again.. is it becoming a trading stock

Q: Good morning 5i, I've held CCL.B for a few years and until the positive results in the 1st Q this year giving it a bump it has been a slow grower. I'm considering moving on to something with more momentum. Two questions: What are your thoughts on CCL.B for the next 3-5 years?, and if it were to be sold, what are your top picks in the consumer cyclical sector, Cdn or U.S. for growth and ideally a small dividend? I already have ATD and BYD.
Thank you

Q: Hi.

Can you recommend fixed income ETFs, on US and/or international markets in the following areas:

- Technology
- Industrials
- Health care
- Consumer cyclical

In addition, I have a great amount of Magna International stocks (equivalent to 45% of my RRSP portfolio), that had a significant devaluation in the last 2 years. What is your recommendation? To hold, sell...?

Thank you.

No worries on size, risk or industry, looking for best returns only.

Thanks!

Q: Hello 5i
TD Canada Trust has a net operating cash flow of -31,114,000 $. Its free cash flow is -33,078.000 $. The total dividends paid is 8,298,000 $. The total liability is 1,844,917,000$. Are we in trouble? I would tend to keep it if dividends hold, otherwise look for something else. I also have BNS and it seems to be recovering as is TD. As you keep advising, best policy is do nothing. Does this still hold for these? I have a ten year + time frame and am a value investor at 76 years young and do not now need ready cash.

Q: CVO is down more than 16% so far today, why?

What is your opinion of this company's prospects over the next 1 to 3 years? Reflecting on your most recent comments last month, how has your opinion changed ?

Does the management of this company and its track record to date support it being "shareholder friendly"?

Is this the classic "falling knife" story?

Do you consider it under valued or fairly valued?

What other Canadian companies in this sector would you consider to be under valued or fairly valued today?

Please feel free to add any additional comments worthy of consideration.
