Q: Am looking at Magna for my TFSA with a 2 year rebound focus. The chip shortage seems to be depressing the stock ; would a 2 year period to fix the shortage seem reasonable ? It looks like a battle is looming to acquire Veoneer and the stock has been hitting lower highs over the last 6 months. Would you wait and see how the takeover ends, see some turnaround in the chip market ? In essence, buy now or wait until some clarity on these issues ? Thanks . Derek

Q: There is enough negative news on LSPD that crashed its share price by a short seller spreading fear this morning and then an ambulance chaser type of law firm did a pile on later.

Has the company issue anything yet? If there is no rebuttal from LSPD by tomorrow morning I would be very concerned. Usually the quicker the response from the company the better the assurance for investors. What is your view on this situation? Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i,

Just a comment: The short report on LSPD reminds me of a similar short attack on SHOP, at a time when SHOP had attained the lofty heights of around $120 a share and the short report concluded that it couldn't be worth any more than about $60 a share. It is very difficult for investors to have any certainty in the moment but that short thesis on SHOP turned out to be garbage and it is quite possible that this one on LSPD is too.

Q: Dear 5i,

I looked at the DOO company web site and could not find any products that use batteries. I think that this might be a good growth area. Do you know if they have any products that use batteries are if there any in development. I understand one of their competitors, Polaris has battery operated products available. Do you think DOO might experience supply, labor shortages in the near term which might impact their earnings?

thanks

Q: Hi team!

I currently hold MG, NPI, QST, REAL in my TFSA and am down in all. Which would be your favorite to add another half position to at the moment?

Or would this be a better opportunity for me to take that money and purchase NVEI at this current lower price point?

Thanks for all you do!

Q: Hi Team,
I read a news release sept.20 stating magna will acquire veoneer. I just wanted to confirm this is now a done deal. And do you see this deal as a long term positive or am I the only one judging by investor sentiment? Last I had heard Qualcomm had a higher bid?? Can you confirm ; and as well is it worth holding magna at these levels or should I be taking a tax loss on it (down 8% on it )? Are there any catalysts that could help the stock in the next few months or do you expect further down side? As of today it’s my only play on the EV sector. I had thought when I bought it to be a safe play on the sector and expected strong auto demand once the chip shortage went away. Thanks for your input !

Q: Which company, DSG or KXS, would have the best long term ability to help businesses sort out the current supply chain issues. I own both but would like to add to one. From reading all the answers to questions I suspect you like both but consider DSG larger and maybe cheaper. But I don't get a sense of how each one might increase business due to current supply chain issues going forward. Perhaps they are pretty close to being equal, but could you split hairs and indicate which one you think might be more worthy of topping up now?
