Investment Q&A

Q: Similarly to the question asked by David regarding your Income portfolio, for B-E portfolio, what would be your top 10 stocks in the order you would buy. Based on anticipated total return (dividends + stock price increase) for the next five years expectations. I would also appreciate if you could add to these stocks your return expectations and risk ratios on the scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being highest. Thanks.

Q: Follow-up comment re: usefulness of customer data in training AI agents, you say.... "The key of course is adapting quickly before customers even start to consider their own solutions." I do not share this view that customers with time can complete with LMN.

My point is the detailed data on vast numbers of customers within a vertical can not be replicated, and is the CSU/LMN/TOI superpower...to train AI agents specific to their customers needs. Customers could have all the human intelligence and time, but without the vast data to train the AI agent the result will be inferior.

Your reply implies a customer and LMN have equal capabilities to develop AI agents, my thesis is they are not.

All of this to ask 5i confirmation that your view is existing CSU data sets to train AI agents is not an 'essential' ingredient....and customers can 'equally' develop effective AI solutions for their business.

Q: Good morning

What are your thoughts on DSG 3rd quarter earning looks looks like decent results?

Q: How would you know when CSU's price action has "settled" and that it is safe to add in? What indicators would you look for?


Price today is $3321.04. Morningstar gives CSU a fair value of $3,744.01. And it is a rare event in its history that CSU's price falls below its fair value.

Would you add to it today?

Q: Hi, I read a quick article today about one of the billionaire investors who was praising Bitzero. What do you know about this stock, and how would it compare with HIVE in your view? As well, rather confusingly, Bitzero seems to have two different stock tickers in Canada. Which one would be more recommended? Thank you for your service.

Q: Hi, do you have a preference between these two? They are both well off their 52 week highs. I realize tax loss selling has probably contributed to this and/or they are just small caps caught up in the out of favour market sell off. Would you own both or consolidate into one? Or do you have another small cap preference to these two? I already own PNG and ZDC.

cheers....

Q: YTD Lundin's stock price has significantly out performed Capstone. Are there fundamental reasons for that and what are your expectations going forward?

Q: This has hit my radar, but I have concern that it is overvalued. Your thoughts would be valuable please.

Q: Looking to establish a position in Bitcoin/Crypto; wondering what your thoughts are on the above companies and what other options there are.
Thank you for your input.

Q: I’m only interested in Canadian compounders. Compounding companies that are mid to large cap that I am invested in are CSU, TOI, LMN, TFII, and ATD. Can you recommend 5-10 possibilities for 5-10 year compounders in the Canadian small cap space?

Q: I would appreciate your views of the 3rd q results. I think they were fine and find the selloff puzzling but that's what happens in the small/microcap cap world.

Q: Hi,
We own no crypto stocks. I feel that we should have some exposure in our portfolio. Now there has been a bit of a pull back… I cannot decide on what combination of stocks or ETF’s (cnd or US$) to buy in this sector for total portfolio weight of approximately 4-5%. What 3 combination of companies and/or ETF would you buy for a balanced exposure to the sector.
Thanks for all that you do!

Q: How would you rank these for growth? I own GLXY and NBIS already. GLXY is 3.5% and NBIS 1.62% position. I could add more to NBIS or start new positions in either CIFR, IREN, HUT or HIVE. I see you recently started a new position in HIVE, but assuming you could choose between all of these companies, how would you compare or rank HIVE to HUT, IREN and CIFR as new AI/HPC plays from bitcoin miners? Thanks!

Q: Hi. I have tried a couple times to submit this question now...

My kids have a family RESP. Oldest child will be starting post-secondary in 9 years.

Currently have GLXY, BN, SIS and T.
What will be good holdings to add to this? If sector diversification is not taken into consideration, what will be good to add?

Thank you.

Q: Your best small cap recommendation for growth in a TFSA today. Thanks!

David

Q: Peter; With the article on LENDCARE, whose parent company is GSY, do you see this affecting GSY? Thanks,
Rod

Q: In reviewing your Growth portfolio YTD I notice that the best YTD increases are CLS, PNG,ZDC,GLXY, HPS.A … in that order. And mor of these are your top holdings as well.

Given the pullback are any of these “buyable” again now; and if so, at what prices would you suggest. I already own all of these stocks - thank you very much!

Q: If--for diversification purposes, not to mention buying into an unloved investment space--which one of the 4 major Canadian telecom companies (BCE, Quebecor, Rogers, Telus)-- would you be most interested in owning long-term, for >10-year hold? Could you rank them from #1 (top choice) thru #4, and provide a rationale for your ranking?
Ted

Q: hello
I have a partial position on gsy; go easy
it has plummeted

looking for a bottom , what would be a good entry price for a 3 years hold? would you prefer GSY over PRL which is a smaller company?
thanks

Michael

Q: Thank you for the excellent market update comparing the AI boom to history. What are the top 'capex-light' companies that you feel may participate in the AI boom?
