Q: Hi Team,

Appreciate all you do, seldom ask questions...

This is for my Kids RESP (ages 7 & 11). As a means to try and get them understanding stocks a little bit, we basically give them 3-5 basic company reports (that 5i recommends) and ask them to review + choose 1 company to invest in. They own 2 companies thus far... investing approx $5K each in Google and CSU. The current market value is now is $2500 for CSU and $11000 for Google... we now have another $3-$4K cash to invest for each of them.

Questions:
1. What would be 3-5 companies we should point them to now for them to pick from (keep in mind, their 'reviewing' of a company is generally looking at the price chart and understanding a bit about the business... there's no deep thought in their decision, obviously)?

2. Which 1 or 2 of those companies should we try to guide their decision to?

3. Would adding to CSU be a better option for them?

4. Should they be trimming google to add another name for diversification?

Thanks!

Q: I listened to Chris's top picks on Market Call a couple weeks ago. One being TSX and another gentleman had mentioned it yesterday as well.
I now see it at times as a recommendation at 5i. Is this a higher conviction profitable investment for 3-5 year time frame after the Aussie additions?
Also do we have any profitable Cobalt miners or an ETF in Canada to invest in?
Thanks in advance. David

Q: Good morning 5i: I have just listened to the podcast focusing on energy. Michael briefly discussed his research and thoughts on SES, but did not mention the acquisition by GFL. I suspect this may be due to the fact that the podcast was recorded prior to the news. My question: does the acquisition by GFL affect his remarks and opinions as the management will differ? Thank you.

Q: Silly questions. Is there a methodology to holding cyclical stocks? By being "buy and hold" am I missing out profitable opportunities?

Q: Thank you once again for the fabulous service, and thank you to everyone who posts questions. I find I learn a lot and get some good ideas from the collective community.
My Question:

Currently invested in WCN. I'm wondering if I wouldn't be better off to switch to GFL? I'm wondering if maybe there's more of a growth opportunity?

Alternatively, are there any other more growthy non- AI related companies you could suggest for a long term hold? (We currently very happily own WSP and BN)

Thank you,
Mike
