Investment Q&A

Q: Hello 5i team,

Here is a recent answer you provided on BN: “Given its strong management team and fundamentals, we feel that BN is currently at an attractive level. It appears to have found some support around the low ~$40”. How do you explain that TD’s Webbroker shows a P/E Ratio of 79.1 for BN?

Q: Good Day Team,
My question is whether it's better to buy MSFT Canadian or US.

Thank You,
John

Q: I took a survey of younger family members in Canada and United States and they spoke very favourably of Artizia and said their stores aver quite popular. Their Aventura Florida store is a big hit according to my my sister in law who is a manager of the Banana Republic in the same mall. They are also putting in cafes in their stores.
For what its worth.

Q: Which restaurant company would you buy right now . The ones I am looking at are SHAK ,RBI , BROS or CMG .Looking for growth going forward. Is there any other companies I am missing.

Q: Repligen is trading close to the 52-week low and would welcome your analysis of their recent operating performance and market potential looking forward.  Post-pandemic and mindful of competitors in the same space does their stock have any opportunity to excel in the coming year, and if held as a position in a long-term growth portfolio, could you please rank the appeal of Repligen in descending order versus your go-to favorites in the same general space.  Thanks kindly for your thoughts.

Q: Hi Peter, can you comment on Well Health Technologies. Is there anything out there that would have sent the shares this low ($4.40 range)? I thought the last qtr was solid. Also, do you think the sell off is overdone?

Q: I recently received my Money Show mailout. Seems like a lot of new faces - no Peter - no Ryan. The only 5i/Canadian MoneySaver person I see is Lana from the Canadian MoneySaver. I am used to speaking with 5i representatives but I guess this year it would be Lana? Thank you. A long time member.

Q: When ratio or metric do you use to access whether a company is too leveraged. Is net debt to ebita the most telling or do you use others. Can you explain which ones you look at and at what level it becomes a concern when interest rates rise or revenues decline. Thanks!

Q: Dear 5i,

Using a Canadian broker.
Is there a way where one can slowly build a small position in CSU at a fraction of it's normal stock price of approx. $2,650? For example, is there a way where I can buy 1/10 share at approx. 1/10 the price? I find this is an issue for stock prices that are very high. Does CSU have a history of doing stock splits?

Q: My apologies. I seem to have had a "Senior Moment" and written in the wrong company name and symbol. The question is about Canadian Utilities

I feel that I need to sell my Canadian Utilities as despite the nice 5.21% dividend with a 9 year streak rising annually, long term there seems to be no significant share price growth. I had thought they would do much better after getting off coal but evidently not. Is there any point in keeping CU in my TFSA other than just for the dividend?

Could you please suggest your best 8 Canadian Blue Chip stocks with dividends over 5% that I don't already own, and that come with steadily rising dividends and enough growth to justify putting them in my TFSA. I already own RY, BNS, CM, BCE, T, EMA, FTS, H, CPX, BEP, BIP, ENB, PPL, TRP. I could add to any of these if necessary but hope you could suggest some new ones I have "missed".
Thank you....... Paul W. K.
