Q: Good morning 5i
You recently published an excellent report on which companies to buy in view of upcoming interest rate cuts. Most of them were companies with dividends and struggling with debt.

If you were to buy a no dividend or low divident Canadian company today, what would it be? Or, perhaps three, ordered from first choice to last?
Thanks

Q: Correct me if I am mistaken but Shop missed estimates and the stock tanked then they beat estimates last week and the stock soared. Over the past 2 days the stock is up approximately 30%. Does the erratic performance make one doubt their ability to at least achieve estimates, let alone exceed them? I assume it is the company’s executives who project the upcoming numbers! Is executive compensation reasonable? I seem to recall a recent comment that executive compensation was ridiculously high. Any thoughts you have would be appreciated.

Q: Read the Q&As almost daily for several years now.
Senior, retired and living on government pensions.
My question is about a growth-oriented TFSA cash allocation of about 10k or less than .75% of total equity portfolio. Will not need the funds for another 34 months.
Understand you cannot indicate position size or provide personal advice.
Current TFSA holdings in order of largest %age gain to biggest losers in TFSA is: TFII, TRI, DIR.un, DSG, KXS, LMN, TOI, TVK, EQB, DOL, DOO, PMZ.un, TIXT, REAL, S, HOT.un, EGLX. Top 10 are in excess of 1.50% of position size. Bottom six are headed for exit ramp in due course.
Across entire non-reg and TFSA portfolio am underweight Cons Cycl, COMMS, Industrials, Healthcare and international multi-sector.
Pondering adding to existing or a new TFSA position to add to the 40-plus I already have. So how would YOU allocate this 10K today?
