Investment Q&A

Q: The market does not like the decline in sales and for that matter the acquisition as well. Do you think to blame the strike for the extent of decline is justified?
If you think it is worth a hold, would you take a loss for tax purposes and visit later. what is the likelihood of a bounce into the year end?

Q: What would be your best contrarian pick today in both us and canadian markets

Q: Hello, Raymond James dropped the price target of ATS to $61 from $67 ( Still a BUY ), in a preview of the quarter, yesterday. Not sure if other analysts on the street will trim estimates/target, leading to Nov 8 release of results. Is this a hint of what could be in the store ? Stock has been weak over past several weeks, perhaps, in anticipation of a soft quarter. What's your take ? Thank You

Q: Could I have your opinion on Shopify results? They appear excellent

Q: Your thoughts please on the quarter?

Thx

Q: Your comments please on earnings. Do you consider these attractive at current levels.

Thanks

Q: What are your thoughts on earnings? Positives/negatives? What do you see going forward over the next 12 months?

Q: Hi 5i,

Can you comment on the latest Q results and the market reaction? I thought things looked okay, but market did not?

TIA

Q: what are 3 key metrics you use to value ISRG? how do these 3 current metrics compare to ISRG,s. 5 year averages? thanks Richard

Q: Despite the companies small market cap, the stock price seems to be gaining traction with some new orders. Can I have your opinion of TMG going forward. Thanks

Q: What are your thoughts on GDI? I've been holding in my TFSA for around 3 years and up 12%. They made a purchase last week which looks good. Its more or less been flat and slightly down for the last little while. I know you like it and still hold but I'm looking to high grade this stock for a better alternative if there is one.  Looking at total return 5+ yrs, what small/mid cap stocks would you rank above this one currently that I could swap with? Some names that come to mind are TVK (not held) and HPS.A (holding already).  So I would sell GDI and buy one of the others, which do you like currently that have greater growth potential? If any others in Cad or US, please offer your suggestions.

Also quick thoughts on NVEI (held in TFSA), time to cut it loose? Thanks!

Q: When the "take it private" chatter was happening I ended up with too large of a DND position which I have been (too) patient with as I understand that the macro economics involved are challenging and until that changes there is little to do but wait. But it is getting a little crazy at this point (even dead cats should bounce).

If I wanted to hedge my bet and sell some are there few other beat up names that you feel have a similar or better recovery potential?

Q: I'm wondering whether you think ATS is a good investment now seeing its price has come down?

Thank you

Q: I just visited your subscription website. 5i rightfully touts the outstanding returns on these BEST PERFORMERS since inception.

I have benefited immensely from those picks BUT bailed at the wrong time and now only hold GSY.

Would you still recommend Csu,byd and syz at current prices or are there new potential multi baggers that you prefer

Thanks for your help…. and looking forward to seeing share prices increase and have the patience and wisdom…and courage to hold on ……

Q: Thoughts on ISRG's latest quarter?

Q: Hi, Can you please provide your opinion on current valuation, growth prospects and a decent entry level to start a new position? It was mentioned that stock has seen a run up in its price and may need to consolidate. Actually, just within last 10 days, it has shot up almost 10%, since it was added to 5i Growth Portfolio ( Kudos to your team for the Great selection and Excellent timing !!! }. Thank You

Q: Do you see anything being done differently at Telus International that might portend a rebound to higher valuations? Is this just another hohum company using the “words” of the day to sell their “used cars” or is there really something to them and the rocket is set to launch?

Q: I was under the impression that CLS was a late inning performer and we are not there yet as indicated in earlier responses. So why now having sold it out of the BE portfolio at less than half its current price within the last couple of years. Is CLS an AI player ?

Thx

Q: Please give your updated analysis of Block and Guardant Health. Would you put new money into either of them? Are they more of a speculative bet right now?

My previous question on CDRs was not intended to be private so please make it public if you wish.

Thanks in advance and please deduct credits for two questions.

Q: Thx for the heads up on CLS in early May. Looking at insider buying by CEOs and CFOs do you see anything of interest at present? Anything of interest from the growth porfolio with significant insider buying?

Thx
