Investment Q&A

Q: Hi, you have indicated that both of these stocks serve similar areas and should do well as interest rates fall. What are the potential benefits of each of these for the next 3 years, which would you choose first, and why? Thank you for an interesting service.

Q: I have owned RY inside my RRIF for over 20 years and it has done very well. However it now seems to be trading at a premium to the other Canadian Banks. I hold it primarily to generate income, so I am wondering if I should sell it around the $180 level and invest the proceeds into another Canadian bank. I already hold TD, BMO and BNS and wonder which of NA and CM would you prefer? Or would you stick with RY despite its premium pricing and lower yield?

Q: Last October, WULF and BTBT were two of your recommendations in the crypto space. What are your thoughts on them today, in light of the broad selloff? For WULF in particular, does this seem like an overreaction and an opportunity to buy? Thanks.

Q: Good morning all. A very noteworthy announcement was made by Softbank in regards to BN being approached as a financing partner for the Stargate project. May we have your opinion at this early stage of the project. Thank you.

Q: Hi Folks,

Thanks

Q: Hi Team,
On Jan. 15th Jordan Zinberg from Bedord Park Capital had Gsy as a top pick. He mentioned that GSY has a credit card. Is this true? I knew that the credit card was being looked into and possibly in development but I had not heard that it was active. I tried looking on the goeasy website by the investor presentation hasn't been updated for almost a year now. If you could share any info you have on this that would be great. I would think a credit card could be a big growth engine going forward for GSY.

Thanks,
Shane.

Q: Good morning,

Would you consider switching EQB for TD today, if EQB is already held?

Thanks,

Q: Hi 5i Team,

I invested in MFC and GWO roughly 2.5 years ago amongst a fairly diverse portfolio. I originally purchased both as a dividend play with potential for modest appreciation, but they have far exceeded my market value appreciation expectations over this time frame. I since purchased a smaller position in Sun Life roughly 3 months ago. For the first two, I likely need to trim for rebalancing / concentration sake.

My question(s) is as follows (and please deduct how many points as necessary):

- At a high level, what is your outlook for the Insurance space over the next 1-3 years and what indicators do you look at when making this assessment?
- Amongst the three companies listed, how would you rank them in terms of expected growth over the next 3 years?

Thanks and really appreciate the advice from 5i.
Erick

Q: Hi Team,
At the time of this question PRL is up approx 6% and GSY 3%. Just wondering if there is anything sector related to account for the positive move today being that both these names are moving up together today? GSY is finally starting to build some steam...any comments? Perhaps share buybacks at GSY?

Thanks,
Shane.

Q: Seems like US banks could perform well this year. What would be a good ETF to best capture growth?

Q: Good morning

I saw yesterday that NDA really popped. Looks like from yesterday news they have secured a LOC and will be using it to acquire bitcoin. Similar to MSTR??

Where do you see the share price and earnings going over the next few years?

Q: Hi,
With insurance claims due to climate change appearing to increase rapidly, what is your take on the prospects of Intact as a property and casualty insurer. My thought would be that property insurance is a shrinking market as insurers appear to abandon markets due to increase risk (e.g., Florida and California). Even locally insurers are starting to refuse to cover properties against flooding. What is the long-term business case for investing in IFC? Thank you. Michael

Q: I am interested in the divergence in performance between BN and its associated companies including BEP.UN. I own BEP.UN and BIP.UN both of which have a history of strongly outperforming BN. More recently they have fallen off while BN has fluorished. Can you comment and what would be your advice on switching some holdings into BN?
Thanks

Q: What do you think of the recent news from TD? I currently have a small position. Ok to add more?

Q: I have been advised to buy Ripple's XRP. What do you know about this crypto investment?

Q: I have an enigma for you….
CALL.TO closed at C$4.13 today while CALL.U.TO closed at US$16.01.
If these are identical shares, both listed in Toronto, then the price difference should be the exchange rate - correct?
However, the equivalent USD shares are far more expensive than the CAD shares. This is the puzzle.
Could you explain this?
Which is the better buy, or would you not recommend either one?

Q: HOOD I have noticed ads targeting the wealthy investor in addition to their meme/crypto traders. This seems to be a new company that is firing on all cylinders- time to add
to the recommended list?
