Q: Hello 5i team,
I have started a few months ago my own Canadian health sector ETF with a position in Catamaran (CCT), Concordia Health (CXR) and Knight Therapeutics (GUD); I am now thinking of adding Cipher Pharma (DND) and Biosyent (RX) but they are way in "overbought" territory.
I value your opinion
Tony

Q: Would you please help me understand the trading volume for Petrowest? The average volume is over 8 million and yet in the last few trading sessions the volume has been extremely low.

Thanks so much

Q: How do you decide that a stock is too expensive to buy? DHX seems like a great growth stock, but it's trailing PE is about 100. Kelso also has a really high trailing PE. Doesn't this make them highly risky if they miss their numbers going forward? This is more a request for your philosophy on picking expensive, high growth stocks than about DHX or Kelso specifically. Thanks for your comments.

Q: Good Morning Peter, Ryan, and Team,

Great blog regarding Tim Hortons / Burger King. Very informative and well written.

At this point in time what companies would comprise your top five growth names (in order of conviction) for inclusion into an TFSA Account ??? Holding period of a minimum of 3-5 years and they would be added to complement slower growing, "safer" holdings. (i.e. BAM.A, BNS, CGX, etc.)
Thank you very much. DL

Q: Hello, I would like to know what is the single best way to calculate the growth of a company. As well, do you like to see the growth rate higher than its PE multiple? Lastly, how many quarters of growth would need to be analyzed before its determined a company is a pure growth company?
Cheers
