Investment Q&A

Q: Good day and happy New Year team,

This is a twofold question so deduct as many credits as needed. First, I know multiple questions have been asked about GUD in the past. I've been in the name for a few years and hold a gain. That said, how much more patience should one have with this stock? At what time should an investor move on because it really seems like not much is happening?
Second question not related to the first. I dabble in penny stocks and I constantly see 100 share bids from the same house. Bid gets filled and immediately another 100 share bid appears. My question is this a sign of a house accumulating and keeping the price low to do so? I know that's a general question. I'm just wondering if this is some form of manipulation by some bigger players.
Cheers

Q: SIS--$17.28 p/p,current postion,3.5%. TFII---$47.58p/p,1.75% position now. Is it time to buy more of these 2? Txs for u usual great services & views

Q: Is it a good time to add ? Is it down because of the market or does the company have something we should be concerned about?
thanks!

Q: With a new CEO and board which seem to have the support of at least 3 of the larger shareholders I am expecting they will set a new direction for the company. How long do you think it will take to develop a new public strategy (I would guess that the larger shareholders know in general for them to give support) for the company and secondly to see results. If the results are not to their liking how long do you think the large shareholders would give before a strategic review is requested.

Q: Hi 5i,

Happy New Year! Has anything fundamentally changed for TSGI since your latest report in June? What is it's current forward P/E? Why do you think the shares have performed so poorly? I am a bit hesitant to buy any due to the debt, but I like the best in class features the company offers.

Thanks!
Dave

Q: Good morning team,

Thx!

Q: The markets have changed since the last report on Fiera Capital, what do you see for this company for the next 3 to 5 years?

Thank you,
Mike

Q: Hi,
I am down 12% KXS,20% NFI and 20% TOY.
Considering a two year time frame,are these companies a buy,sell or hold?
If they are a hold then at what price would they be a sell or buy?
Thank you.

Q: To date, I have not moved out of RHT yet. It only makes up 1.09% of my overall portfolio. Do you see any sense in holding it?
If not, what are your replacement recommendations for the technology sector? Do you still see CSU as an option?

Many thanks.

Q: What is your preferred holding in this sector? I currently hold CNR.

Q: In your recent report on NFI you were scratching your head at the price decline. That was at $38.00, today it is at $33.00. If your assessment of the company is unchanged would you deploy new money to buy or would you wait for better momentum? If the latter what factors would suggest time to buy?

Thanks
Mike

Q: I hold ENB and recently read that the state of Minnesota has appealed the approval of ENB's line 3. What are your thoughts on this ? Is the appeal likely to be successful? I am thinking that if the appeal was successful that the impact to ENB stock would be huge.

Q: FSV is down more than the market and is taking another hit today. Can I get your take on things. What factors will influence its movement going forward? Sell, Hold or Buy a bit more?

Q: Will 5i be preparing a report on this company in the near future? It's had a great run the past several years and has been increasing its dividend regularly. I'm considering adding after the pull back. Seems to be decent growth ahead of it but how fast can it pay off its debt (seems pretty high). What grade would it most likely receive and why? Thanks.

Q: Can you please comment on the payout ratios and free cash flow of these companies. As they are both growing and acquiring other companies, I thought the payout ratio was low. How would you rate their capital allocation over the last few years (cash flow, debt vs issuing new shares) ? Thank you!

Q: I would appreciate if I can have payout ratios for NFI, PBH, SIS, CGX. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to Ryan, Peter and excellent team.

Q: hi there,

i know that BCI is an odd trader especially with the low volumes. However it seems to be down in an up market - is there any news i missed? It has been a very stable stock to own through all the market girations and i was looking to slowly add to my position unless i missed something.

Cheers

Q: Hi, Any idea, why COV is down another 10-15%, today, traded as low as $3.54 ? Is it still tax loss selling or any news ? Thanks

Q: Is cov's announced issuance of stock options today, causing it to be down 13% this today. Your current thoughts on COV would be appreciated.
