Q: Peter, What are your thoughts regarding the run up in Topicus. What is EV/EBITDA and how do you compare its valuation to CSU and Lumine. Is it getting expensive or do you think there still is value.
Thanks

Q: (I have submitted this question under CSU since Lumine does not yet seem to have been entered in your automated stock list.)

Lumine (LMN) started to trade yesterday (Mar.24), at $16.75. I have no idea whether this is a fair value, but have noted in the past that the initial market price of spin-off shares often falls
precipitously in the first few days of trading. I
I would like to add to the shares I already possess from the CSU spin-off. In your opinion, is $16 overvalued?
Thanks!

Q: Which do you think have the most potential in the current environment in an RRSP? Currently own TCN at a loss and wonder if I shouldn't switch. Also own DIR.

Q: Hi Team,
I am having a hard time deciding which of these 3 names to add new funds to today. ATZ, ATS, and CROX. Of these 3 which would be your best bet if aiming for top potential returns over the course of the next say 3-5yrs? Could you please rank in order of buying preference here along with any comments on the potential of each name you wish to add? Thanks

Shane.

Q: Leaving personal portfolio situations aside...based on current market environment would 5i buy either of these companies at current levels...or do you consider them overbought...and lastly, would you buy one over the other. Let's assume a 12 month time horizon.
Many thanks as always for your great insight.

Q: Hi Team,
Any idea on why ATZ can't seem to catch a bid lately? Especially on a day like today...it's still down when other stocks in the sector are up today. I don't really understand where the weakness is coming from as everything in their last release and the future prospects looks points to the company firing on all cylinders so to speak. Should a person be looking at adding to a existing position here soon? Thanks

Shane.

Q: I'm currently overweight financials. Mainly due to new positions in BN/BAM/TD. With over 21% in financial broken down as follows would you begin to trim or consider BN/BAM diverse enough not to be a financial and thus reducing the overall financials concentration to 13.5%

BNS - 2%
BAM -2%
BN - 4.5% been growing this position (ideally want it to be 6%)
EQB - 1% new position
GSY - 2.5%
JPM - 2.6%
TD - 2.21% new position
Visa - 4.23%

10 year investment horizon.

Your thoughts are appreciated

Don

Q: Dear 5i,
In regards to the March 21, article written by Michael Huynh titled Canadian Financial Companies with Robust Balance Sheets. I believe the GICS sub-industry classification for GSY is "Consumer Finance". Assuming GSY was included in the screening process. Can you help explain where GSY did not meet your screening criteria. I believe in general your team likes this stock.
thanks

Q: Hi

In our cash accounts we sold energy stocks at the start of the year and have a large capital gains

Would be wise to sell BN for the loss and buy BRK.B?

Then get into BN later

Thank you

Mike
