Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I bought CSU way back at $400 or so and (despite your advice), hate the idea of selling any more of a stock that seems to do so well month after month. At some point however, I need to reduce CSU again, and am wondering about putting some into LMN which you like as well. I have very small positions in both TOI and LMN, but so far neither has done much in comparison to CSU.

My question is, if CSU has "an event" that drags it down really badly, will the sister companies also get tarred with the same brush? Would I be better looking at something completely different like HPS.A?

Thanks for your advice - I have done well by it!

Q: Empire Chief Operating Officer Pierre St-Laurent Sells 100% Of Holding. This is a headline I read yesterday.
Insiders are selling because of a variety of issues. However, rarely a COO eliminates 100% of his position.
Do you see a specific company issue for this sale? Are you comfortable with holding this security?
Thank you as always for your guidance ?

Q: Hi Everyone!!

I have made some profit with Shop and was thinking of skimming a little off and buying some Galaxy. I know...we are comparing apples to oranges. Do you think that Galaxy has some good growth potential ahead of it to make this move worthwhile?

Cheers and Thanks,

Tamara

Q: I have held the above stocks in my open account for several years. All stocks have shown a positive return except for BNS which is down approximately 20%. I have some cash to invest in the market and would like to purchase additional shares in some of these companies for a 3 to 5 year investment. Please rate the potential growth of these companies and rank the companies based upon the projected growth over the next 3 to 5 years. Thank you

Q: Long investor trying my best to hang in there in with some of my dog stocks. Down significantly in Matterport 85%. Guardant Health 29%. Canada Goose 45%. Inmode 40%. Southwest Airlines 40%. Viemed 32%.
My 5i membership has been a stalwart of sound reason over the years, and I’ve appreciated your take on some companies that nose dive, but you feel are worthy of hanging onto, even if it takes a year or more. (ROKU and PINS spring to mind). With some potential tax loss harvesting coming up, which of the following would you think could be a re-buy, and which could be saluted and sent off to oblivion after the sale? I’m consigned now to doing either.

Q: Hello 5i
I must have missed some changes to your site recently. I see the “heart” is gone and some kind of counter and another symbol have been added.
Could you please explain the changes or point me to an explanation within the site.
Thank you
Dave

Q: I have .85 and .79 % holdings respectively in the above 2 companies. The dividend yields are paltry so I'm thinking of consolidating them . Which of the two do you see with better growth potential or could you recommend 3 or 4 others with better growth opportunities irrespective of sector allocation with a dividend and without a dividend. I already hold CSU, LMN, TOI, TFII, GLXY, HPS.A
Thank -you

Q: Good Morning,

Our RESP for my 13-year-old daughter is currently valued at about $42k. It is comprised of 25% Google, 25% AMD, 25% DSG, 13% Apple, and 12% VMD. Wondering if you could please give me a few ideas for another stock or ETF (Canadian or American) that I might add to this mix, as I will be contributing another $6K soon. Thanks. Brad
