Investment Q&A

Q: I'm looking to add a dividend growth stock to my portfolio and considering DOL, TRI, STN, GSY, WCN. What are your views on these stocks and please rank given current market conditions and price. I hold others such as BN, TFII, CSU, and ATD. Others to consider?

Q: I've held XYZ in a reg account for a while now awaiting a recovery (down 50%) that never seems to take hold. I have to imagine there are much better opportunities, particularly in the US tech space. What would be some suggestions for replacement I could explore. I've had my eye on FOUR for a while, thoughts on this one as well would be very much appreciated. Thanks so much.

Q: Can you name a handful of ETF options for long term holds in my son's RESP account. Growth, dividend, and balanced. Looking for exposure in Canada and USA. I don't want the headache of managing stocks for this portfolio. I'd rather have something that I can just buy and not look at it for 15 years until he needs it.

Q: Earnings are up but outlook is down - possibly because of Kennedy appointment - would appreciate your comment as I do not seem able to access their earnings statement recording.

Q: Hi 5i
Can you please elaborate on this company.
It sounds quite interesting as a financial technology company.
I'm unsure how relative this space will be going forward.
Please enlighten.

Thanks
Cal

Just curious how these alike small cap recommendations are initially sourced .. Heat Map Pop up on Bloomberg terminal or does 5i research analyst infact USE the Defi platform ? Pls advise

* not OWN as per 5is conflict of % policy

Q: Is TRI worth getting into at today's prices after the recent jump? How favourably does it compare to some of your other favorite growth stocks? Incremental buy-in and slow accumulation today, or a larger position?

Q: Hi. I totally missed the boat on Palantir. When the stock was in the high 20s, my beliefs and lots of what I read was confirming that the stock was over priced (at least that is what I thought), and I felt same as the stock rose to the 30s, 40s, .... and now over a hundred. And I still feel that the stock will need to correct at some time, as it has a trailing P/E in excess of 500 and possibly a P/E of at least 300+ looking forward. I made exactly the same mistake with many other companies such as Netflix, Facebook, .... I know that small, newer companies can exponentially increase their profits as they grow up but there is no guarantee that they will be successful (let alone be excessively successful).
So my question is three fold (please deduct necessary credits).
1. What did I do wrong here? I watched the stock go up and up and never pulled the trigger, thinking it was always too expensive. I sometimes feel it is more of a meme stock.
2. Would you buy Palantir at these prices / why?
3. Do you feel that there may be some other companies out there that may be in their early days (or well established) with lots of room to grow. If yes, your listing a few of your top convictions, along with a sentence (or two) explaining your rationale and intuition would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You.

Q: Hi Peter and team,
Can you recommend five U.S. and five Canadian diversified stocks with medium to high risk, strong growth potential, and at least positive earnings?

Q: I have partial positions in both and ask whether you would consolidate - which one would you prefer - and just as importantly, would you prefer another to these [sell both for a better opportunity at today's prices] for 2+ year hold.

Q: Hi Team,
With HPS.A struggling to catch a bid lately, would you think selling the stock to buy CLS is a good move long term? Is the movement in CLS share price sustainable? Or should more patience be applied here to HPS.A?

Thanks,
Shane.

Q: Hi, what are your most recent thoughts on DTOL in general? Thank you.

Q: Hi Folks,

Can you suggest 3 conservative growth stocks and 3 aggressive growth stocks for each the U.S. side and the Canadian side that you would be buyers of today for a 5 year hold?
Many thanks for your sage advice through the ups and downs of this turbulent market!

Q: Would you consider replacing NVDA with CLS for more stable long term growth? If so what difference does it make to buy on the TSX vrs. the NYSE?

Thank you,

Q: Dear 5i
Could you please rank the above listed stocks from best ie most likely to be worth a lot more after 3-4 years to the least best ie more likely to not do as well over the same 3-4 year time period . I'm also assuming that when i say best i mean companys that not only have great growth profiles but also have descent management and solid products and /or services that will likely remain in high demand for years to come .
Thanks once again
Bill C

Q: I know this may be hard to answer exactly.
To the best of your knowledge . Who are the top 5 CDN. companies doing substantial or aggressive buy backs ? Also the same question for the US side.

Thanks for your valuable service.

Q: Celestica use to trade at a lower pe multiple but with its new focus what might be a more favorable multiple going forward?

Q: Why do you think this company is a good investment?

Q: Mid-20’s investor looking for your top 3 Canadian and top 3 US “buy and forget” compounders, regardless of sector, for a long-term hold within a TFSA. Can you please rank from 1 (highest confidence) to 6. Looking for companies that I can periodically but continually add to over time without worrying about having to be a “trader” and move into and out of positions as trends, themes and market momentum shift. I already have BN and NVDA (both of which may have been candidates for your top 6 list). Would this list be any different had the question been asked a week ago – before all the DeepSeek anxiety? Thanks.

Q: Oklo Inc. Class A (OKLO:US)

To buy or not? Says it has 2 employee's, true or false?

Thank you.
