Investment Q&A

Q: I currently have a 2% weight and wonder what your thoughts are for increasing this to 3%, best to leave at 2% and invest in other names from the income portfolio or okay to bring it up to a 3%? I am currently under water on this one so would be averaging down but have a very long time frame before needing the income.
Thanks

Q: If had to choose between PHO and XBC for starting a new position in TFSA today which would you pick?

Many thanks.

Q: Hi 5i,
Seem like the KXS is still weak due to the Blue Yonder Complaint in court, I am thinking to accumulate more, but want to wait until for lower, what would be a good entry price? Does the current price already reflected the worst scenario? If not, how worst the stock price should be usually for such court case happened in these companies? Kindly advice, many thanks.

Q: I looked up your report on this company and it is from 2016! Will you be doing an update? Would you still give it a C rating or has the rating change?
Thanks

Q: Do you still like these 2 for the long term?
Ignoring sector allocation and company size, would you add to KXS, PHO or both and briefly why? Looking for the best risk / reward scenario. I currently have half position in each. 5 year + investment. Thank you.

Q: What is your opinion of photon's growth potential. Would you be a buyer at the current price for a 3-5 yr horizon.

Q: I find this strange that ATD is down since the offer was annouced and Carrefour has not increased to the offer price. It seems that even the Carrefour shareholders don't think it will go through, so why such a drop in ATD? I don't think this entire deal will go through, the government of France will not allow the sale of the grocery side, but it's possible that Carrefour will be able to sell of their convenience stores, which is what ATD normally wants. What do you think about this option?

Q: Hi,
I am new to stocks....

In one of the questions you have mentioned that BAM stock has risen 10 fold in the past 11 years......but when i google the stock price, it has gone up about 3 times ( it was about 13$ in jan 2011 and now it is 39)

What am I missing here....?

Q: Is it okay to buy Well today.Txs for u usual great services & views

Q: In one of my previous questions about Leon's, I referenced the company's profile page where it shows, like it has for months, that there is one analyst covering LNF. In your answer, you indicated there were, in fact, two analysts covering LNF.

Q1 = I have waited quite a while for the 5iR company profile page to be updated by your data provider to reflect the above # analysts (two). Is there a way to reach out to your data provider and request him to update this? Or...is it that the "missing analyst" is from a firm that they do not consider significant enough?

Q2 = While we are on the topic, how many analysts does 5iR currently have in their system that cover LNF now and what is there current target?

Q3 = What is YOUR internal target for Leon's one year out? How much upside to you see?

Thanks for your help...Steve

Q: What are your thoughts on REAL at this point? I have a small position and thinking of adding to it. What would be a good entry price.
Thank you

Q: Any chance somebody will buy this company? The stock has only one direction for the last 5 years and it's down. The CEO it seems wit's a one trick pony and we need somebody else to put the company out of misery.

Q: If you had to choose one of these for TFSA long term hold 5+years which would you choose and why? Does PLC have a chance of being like a boyd in their space? Thanks

Q: Good Day,
Just wondering what your thought were on buying Air Canada shares at this time?

Q: I want to sell my DOL (for a gain) and buy ATD-D on the dip. Good call, bad call or indifferent?
Ian.
PS. I think very highly of 5i and am recommending it regularly to anyone who listens. Please accept my thanks for this great service.

Q: Hi 5i,

I own Lightspeed and I am very happy with it, but I struggle to understand the valuation. Closing in on $100 a share which is an $11B market cap. Is the stock getting ahead of itself. Its tough not to take a double in a stock price in 2 months when there's a huge disconnect in valuation. They've made a couple of acquisitions and launched this new supply chain system, but they went from a $4B market cap to $11B in short order and are up 547% since the March lows. I'm itching to sell!! :)

Q: ATD.B is by far my largest holding in my portfolio. I have owned it since the early 1990's. If it was not my large holding I would be a buyer of ATD.B today. An alternative is to buy call options. What do you think of this strategy and which call option would you recommend?

Q: Hi,

I just purchased ATD.B at $42 thinking I was getting a good price. I guess not. I started with a 3% position so I still have room to add. Would you add on this news? It seems that this French grocer operates a number of convenience stores and has a footprint in Asia. Could this be a reason for the acquisition? Not sure why make a pitch for the whole Company if only parts of it are strategic to ATD.B.

Thanks,
Jason

Q: Hello
Is today’s offer of twenty euros for Carrefour positive for Atd.b? Any comments about the drop of more than $3.00 today?
Thanks.

Q: Happy New Year and thank you for all your wise advice over the last tumulus year. Between ATD and DOL, which of these 2 companies do you feel offer the best investment opportunity over the next 5+ years, taking into consideration, stability, risk, dividend and sales growth.
Thank you
