Q: Based on your last comments on Tantalus Systems (GRID) can you comment on yesterday’s earnings release. It looks great from what I see but I’ll leave the professional analysis to you guys. Based on your last comments is insider ownership the same? Is management doing a great job? Can you also comment on their 3rd Annual Utility of the Future report they posted at a the end of April please. Lastly can you update me in the Conguitive acquisition.
Q: Can you please give me a brief fundamental analysis of DSG at this point in time (last report update was about last June). I don’t really understand technical analysis but do you see any signals technically? It is off quite a bit year to date, would you be adding here?
Q: Hi guys....great service....just wondering if you have 2-3 names on both sides of the border...undervalued and you think are great opportunities for bounceback over the next 6-12 months...
Q: Two part question here. I am trying to add PEG ratio to my thinking about stocks. It seems like a useful metric that combines growth with value. But I don't see it listed frequently enough for Canadian equities. I presume you work with trailing P/E and divide it by growth rather than forward P/E. Is that correct? I also realize I should be looking out for oddities in trailing P/E that shift it one way or another. Anything else I should be looking for? Second, I look at GOOG and it reads well at both a very reasonable forward P/E and PEG under 1. Are there other stocks you see with that combination? Thank-you.
Q: With the announcement today of a 24% cut in NASA's budget, including scrapping Gateway, the lunar space station, does this affect MDA enough that it is no longer a desirable stock to hold? The Canadian Space Agency had awarded MDA a $1 billion contract to build Canadarm3 for Gateway, so they have lost a major contract there.
Q: Saw the news that GLXY is listing on the NASDAQ and read the FAQ document they prepared.
Any benefit to converting shares to the NASDAQ? if yes, should I Sell and repurchase or have broker transfer the shares?
OR do nothing and leave in my CAD account as TSX shares?
Q: Hit "enter" to fast on my last question. Looking for some ideas with the understanding you can't offer direct recommendations. I have 40 K to add to my non-reg account. I have full positions in all the pipelines, OLY, GWO, BNS, CU, NPI, BIR, PEY, TPZ, CNQ, PRL and BMO. I have no need for any income for at least five years, not opposed to going overweight if necessary, have lots of higher yielders so would perhaps benefit from some choices with capital gain and dividend growth potential versus just high yield.
Q: PNG reported early this morning. Seems good. Can you assess things after call and provide how things shape for the future. Is this a good time to complete a position? What range might the stock be in a year out from now?
Q: Is it too early in the tariff war to buy these 'growthy' names? If not, can you suggest two choices (prioritizing consistent earnings) and why you chose them?
Q: Can you comment on Vertiv's earnings and the outlook for the stock? Positive market reaciton but how much of that is the market itself generally being up?
Thanks.
Q: Please help me out. One of the metrics I find very important is ROE or return on equity. When I look this up look this up on 5i’s site under profile I get an ROE of 128% however when I look at the April 25/24 report it shows 2%? The current Morningstar Quant Report shows 3.99%. So 1st. question is does 5i consider ROE to be an important metric?
Secondly how can I get an accurate measurement?
Thanks
Q: According to Yahoo Finance average vulume for Canada is 1.2 million shares and for the US IT IS 5.5 million shares per day. Where did 5i get your numbers from?
Q: Celestica trades up to 25% of its outstanding shares on a weekly basis and up to 50% some weeks lately. Any thoughts as to the turnover of shares? Could this be hedge funds churning the stock ?
Q: What would be your best three stocks for a long term hold that have a good combination of dividend yield and modest growth on both the US and Canadian side of the border ?
