Q: I have held Paychex for many years and it’s done very well. Why the big drop today? Is it a buying opportunity or cause for concern?
Thanks!

Q: Operating metrics (FCF, ROE, margins, etc.) for PAYX seem quite strong - it seems to be an asset-light business, dividend grower and compounder. However, it's at the same price as 3 years ago and has been underperforming the S&P for the same period. Am I missing something? What are your thoughts for PAYX and is it worthwhile for initiating a position at some level you would suggest?

Q: Have about $18.0 K U.S. that I would like to put to work for 30 to 40 months. Would appreciate suggestions - ETF or individual security. Sector not too relevant although, like most Cdn, investors, I am overweight financlals and resources. Keeping the funds in U.S., a mix of capital appreciation and reinvested dividends would be nice. Thanks for all the 5i Team do and a shout out to all the members whose thoughtful questions have helped me in recent years.
