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

Q: Wondering if the 5iii team has considered a survey type / sentiment analysis of what your entire membership is in fact holding for their portfolio positions ? This would give us all a perspective as DIY cohort how like minded we actually are !

Q: Hello Peter & Ryan,
Last query was in September, and they've recently announced latest quarter, and their earnings, from what I can see, are down YoY over 3 business segments. Very, very juicy yield, but is this one possibly a dog? I'm not necessarily looking for growth, it is its yield that is attractive to me, though I don't want a capital loss either.

Thank you as always...

Q: Hello Peter,
Could you please comment on Fulgent's results? Is it time to add to FLGT as the stock dipped for longer term? Also, what is your view on Neighbourly Pharmacy and Cargo jet? Thanks very much

Q: Hi! Doing some cleaning up and wondering if these are buy, sell, or hold. In reference to Shane's comments I also agree that it wasn't too long ago that so many advisors were recommending growth stocks at lofty prices. Having always been a more of a value investor I dipped my toes, but am feeling like I'd be too scared to ever enter any kind of a growth stock again. I know if interest rates peak you feel these can do well again but only time will tell and many investors have lost lots of money on the high growth names like in Cathy Wood's funds. Happy to hold any of these names if there could ever be a turn around. Thank you!

Q: I need more exposure to health care as well as small caps so I have been investigaring NBLY. I assume Neighboorly is considered health care and not consumer staples? There seems to be an investment company, I believe it is PCP, that has over 50 per cent of the shares. Is that a good or bad and why? Obviously I am a retail investor so liquidity is not a big issue since I won't need to trade large blocks of shares. But does a small float, assuming PCP does not intend to sell shares, create a more volatile share price? I don't mind volatility as long as the trend is up and to the right. Apparently they raised money in secondary offerings in the high $20's. That means that people supposedly far smarter than me thought Neighboorly is worth more than it's current share price. Should I take comfort in that?

Q: I have a few questions on PLTR. What annual revenue growth rate has the company set and what will it achieve if it meets its q4 revenue target? What affect has the employee remuneration in shares having on total shares outstanding? The optics of PLTR missing analysis estimates each quarter is problematic. Do you believe the company will improve it's ability to meet or exceed analysts estimates (and its own) or do they just don't care? Maybe there is a better explanation for these misses. Alex Karp ses to revel in and seek out a guru status, but can he deliver the results he promises. He certainly isn't conservative in setting targets and seems to have new explanations each quarter for missing expectations he has set. That said, the business is growing, I'm just not sure how investable the stock is. I am considering selling at a loss in a registered account, but can hold for a very long time if the value of shares could improve over time.

Q: Chesswood, North American Construction and Hammond Power Systems all produced some very good Q3 results. All look very cheap on a p/e basis. Would like to hear some comments about each as possible purchases in a diversified portfolio. I hold some HPS, but not the other 2.

Q: Good afternoon 5i
I read recently that it is possible to donate shares which have had a capital loss to charity. I was aware of the capital gain rule but not this. I tried to search this question but with no luck. I am sure that you would know. Is there any big advantage to doing this if one also has sizeable capital gains?
Thanks
