Investment Q&A

Q: Re your response to John, January 17th, you answered "it's hard to beat a single great company that compounds year after year".
Could you please recommend 5 Canadian and 5 US companies that fit into said catagory that have declined recently due to the tech sell off, and represent a good buy/nibble point,
Please include a mix of larger e.g CSU and Google, along with more recent up and comers e.g. Shop and Roku, which seem to be among your most obvious favourites.
Thanks Peter.

Q: Aside from the downside momentum and my negative 70% return on XBC (emotions detached), do you see today's price of 2$ as attractive? Today's price seems a lot less risky with still upside potential in the company. Is this a buy at these low levels?

Q: I would appreciate your thoughts on QSR as a buy at current prices. Nearing 52 week lows.
Thank you

Q: Hi 5i,

Question regarding Well. Do you possibly have any info. (or know where we could find any info) on how their purchase of CRH Medical is going?

It seems like CRH's CEO (Tushar Ramani) left the company last month (Dec). Is there any information explaining this and/or any information relating to their revenue trends?

Thanks very much!

Q: GSY is one of my growth holdings still firmly in the green, although certainly down from its high. Is it time with the interest rate hike coming, to rotate out of this one for a while to preserve the gain?

Q: Will high oil prices and higher interest rates (perhaps recession) have significant negative impact on TFII stock?

Q: With the business update from WELL I'm reminded of a similar update from GSY in the depths of market turmoil in 2020. I think GSY re-affirmed their business at a very low stock price ($12? maybe $20?). Had I been wiser and more knowledgeable at the time I would have bought more then and I didn't.

I'm curious why one would not add to (or start) a position in WELL today?

Thx,

Cam.

Q: With all the news today about driver shortages, border restrictions etc, will that not have a negative impact on TFII profit?

Thanks

Q: Hi 5i,
DND has continued to slide lower after their recent high currently at $39.

What is your outlook for this stock/company going forward and would you be a buyer at this price?

At what price would you consider it a screaming buy where reward greatly out weighs risk..in your opinion.
Thx
Jim

Q: With technology stocks presently going out of favour with buyers what 5 Canadian and 5 US technology stocks would i5Research recommend for a long time hold in a TFSA. Thanks … Cal

Q: Do you believe todays news release was intentional by managements to stop the bleeding. There is nothing new materially mentioned. That said the business model looks great.

Q: Having held SHOP (TSX) for a number of years, it's discouraging to watch it whither away. While this downturn plays out, would it make sense to short the US version of the stock? Obviously, there are considerable risks involved and it would require close attention for entries and exits, but it seems like this might mitigate some of the losses. Or is this a dumb idea? Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i Team - Having been a growth investor I don't have a very clear idea of what a Value stock is. Could you explain what criteria or metrics make up this type of company. Am quite sure I probably have a few in my portfolios (and maybe didn't quite realize it) but would to like add at least a couple, maybe more. Would you be able to provide the names of a few Value stocks in the mid and large cap range. Also in the small cap area if possible. Any sector. Am assuming minimum 3 year hold for this type of investment. Thanks.

Q: What would be your #1 stock pick for a TFSA for an 18 year old starting out in the investing world?

Q: Not so long ago I didn't think it could drop below 6. Then I was shocked to see it go below 5. Today on a market rebound it dropped again below 4. Would you sell and wait to see where it settles before buying back in. Can you see it going below 3.

Q: These stocks were recently purchased before the melt down in teck, and wondering what your thoughts are going forward.
Should I be pulling the plug, I am underwater on all three
Thanks

Q: Good morning, If I were to buy these three stocks in a separate account and never looked at the prices of the stocks or the account for five years, would I be happy when I saw the results after the five year period, thanks?

Q: Reviewing your " New Reports, Market and Portfolio Updates!". You added to tve, and kel. When were these added to the growth portfolio or are they new positions at this time.
Thanks

Q: If I want to initiate a position on GSY, what would you consider to be the optimate price? As well, GSY has dropped over 8% since the start of 2022, will it fall any further?

Q: I have a question for shopify it looks like there next report will come out on February 16. This company took a beating of $500.00 per share in the last 3 months, i am looking to get my feet wet on this company would you have any idea if they meat or beat their target can you see it taking off again.. And my other thought is i read alot of bartchart and it gives you signals like buy, sell, and hold which i do not follow it to closely but what i do check out on the companies that i am looking to add to my portfolio or if i already have them and that inside trading now i know why the tech's are taking a beating, pretty well almost all of them but not CSU in the last 6 months there is about 10 to 1 ratio that are mostly sellers. Some of these ceo or vp do not believe in their company. Thanks again guys sorry for making it so long you may charge me extra points.
