Investment Q&A

Q: Hello, what are your thoughts of the psilocybin therapeutics sector? Personally, I believe there should be a much better alternative available today to treating mental health issues than our current options. I've read the FDA gave 'Breakthrough Therapy Designation' to COMP360 (by Compass Pathways), and I find this very hopeful. However, as an investment for the next 1-2 years what are you thoughts of this industry and this company (or any company)? Do you see this as just another boom and bust as did the cannabis sector?

Much thx.

Q: What are your thoughts regarding Virgin Galactic’s management, current valuation and prospects? Is there a relatively high risk factor here? Thanks for your service

Q: I’d like to get your updated views of these 3 companies. Would you be a buyer of any today.

Q: TFSA: I treat this account as my bank account because I earn no interest in my checking account which typically has fairly high cash balances and I have other investment accounts accounts that generate a ton of dividends as I am basically a "dividend grower" investor. I am retired and earn more than enough to live on. I own these tech. stocks: ETF IGM, ETF ARKK, and NIO ( I guess not a tech stock). I have approx. $35K in my TFSA to invest. I know you like KXS, SHOP & LSPD - I do not see the same returns as has happened this year and they are not value at this point IMHO. ERGO, three or four of your best suggestions going forward - equal weighting please.

Q: I have small positions in these stocks in my TFSA. Which one would you add to, or do you have another suggestion for a stock that should do well in the next year. Thank you

Q: I have been reading a lot about Roblox and it is sounding like an exciting IPO to me. Just wondering your thoughts on this stock and the sector in general. If you do not like this one, what do you like in gaming, ATM?

Thank you for the GREAT service!

Q: Hi 5i!

What are your toughts about BABY?

You recommended it to me earlier this year for a play on an eventual baby boom, but i sold the stock since my expectations didnt materialize but im reconsidering to initiate a long term position.

Many thanks!

Q: Hi 5i Team - Could you provide some fundamentals for Xebec Absorption including P/E, cash on hand and cash flow, debt, insider ownership and anything else you think is particularly important. The stock has risen so quickly that I am not sure whether the fundamentals justify it or it has simply become a 'must own' stock for investors. Do you feel the growth potential is still there. I am having some difficulty trying to decide if I should sell a portion of my holdings or hold on for a longer term.
Thanks.

Q: Could you give me your 2best large cap and 2 best mid cap cannabis stocks(CDN or US)and give me your reasons why especially how you think they might do in the next 1-3 years in respects to the recent and also soon to be legalization in numerous states ...thanks

Q: With soft drink sales lagging at Pepsi and Coke, what’s taking them so long to jump on Celsius? With Celsius shooting up the way it has the past year, do you think much of a premium to today’s price would still be required for the deal to be made?

Q: The Very Good Food Co
Further to the announcement of the achievement of sales metrics this morning (announced by the corporation on Jan 5) and since your comments on this stock on November 12, 2020, can you please provide your current thoughts; thank you.

Q: i know these companies are worlds apart my understanding is that there is a short supply of doo products and not a whole lot of competition sounds a bit like the tesla story? if so this company has possibly a great bright future what are your thoughts?

Q: Please give me your opinion on these three company's management team, growth prospects, debt levels, and current valuation. I am looking for a home run over the next two years for my more speculative part of the portfolio. Any other names you would prefer? Regards greg

Q: Happy New Year to the 5i team.

I was hoping to get some feedback about how about to allocate about 11% of my total portfolio that is otherwise well-balanced and is made up of a mixture of Canadian dividend and large-cap stocks, and US and international ETF's.

These purchases will be in my TFSA and I am seeking greatest total return for the next 5-10 years. I am not afraid of risk but am also looking at sound investments rather than speculative purchases or quick trades.

I currently own GH, ISRG, LSPD and XBC and would like to add 4-5 more names. On my short list are the following: CRWD, MITK, ROKU, TTD, TT, U, VEEV and XYL.
Are there any from that list that you think match up well with my existing stocks? Alternatively, if you think there are better names that I haven't mentioned please advise.

Thanks in advance for all the great work you do,
Rory

Q: What are your top us and canadian stock picks for growth that you would buy today.

Q: Hi, Nuvei took a hit Wednesday morning, I understand, in line with downward pressure on Big Tech, with Democrats win in Georgia senate. This company appears to be a favorite with 5i, based on your recent comments as well as the payment space, it operates. I think, it was also mentioned in one of the answers that Nuvei has a niche in sports and gaming payment settlements space. I noticed some news this morning which helped sports betting stocks like Draftking etc, jump 3-5%. Will this be beneficial to Nuvei ? I bought a small 0.5% position, today and still considering to bring it up to 1-1.5%. Thank You

Q: Which clothing company do you prefer between lulu, goos and atz short term and long term?

Is QS attractive back in the $60 range, or what price should you find it attractive if any at this point?

Thanks very much
Brian

Q: I am an older, 'dividend' investor, financially secure, with about a 5 year window to take advantage of a small growth portfolio. The purpose is to provide interest and education during this pandemic period, and subsequently to pass any profits on to the young adult cohort in our family. I have recently taken small positions in WELL, KXS, XBC, CTS, BB & GRN and am considering LSPD(too expensive?) and DCBO(slow growth?). Any comments re buy or sell would be appreciated.
BTW, since taking a membership in 5i I have already had an excellent education! Thank you.

Q: Hi everyone!

Just a quick question on Amazon purchasing 11 jets from Westjet and Delta. I know online purchases have been accelerated because of the pandemic. Do you see Amazon's purchase of jets and their existing fleet as a medium term threat to companies like Cargojet?

Jason

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan and Team,

Happy New Year greetings.

FTS and WPK have provided me excellent returns in the past 5 years but recently have been rather stagnant. Can you give a list of 3-4 suggestions to replace them with ( it does not have to be in the same sectors) inside a TFSA?

Thanks.
