Investment Q&A

Q: Propel just dropped about 10% after announcing an acquisition of Stagemount, despite saying the acquisition would be accretive in 2024 and 2025. What do you think of this acquisition? Is there something I am missing?

Q: Can you comment on the recent announcement with DoorDash? Any reason(s) that you are aware of? Your thoughts going forward - is there hope or should one sell and walk away?

Q: Yikes! Pay fare loses door dash’s business… red flag?

Q: What is Payfare worth after losing their biggest client, Doordash?

Q: Hi,

Do you think that the Growth Portfolio is poised to outperform the balanced portfolio moving forward? You've mentioned in other threads that small caps have underperformed in the past 5 years; is that compared to large caps, or is that compared to an index?

Also, when comparing both portfolios to American ETFs such as VFV, they both seem to underperform. Which portfolio would you recommend for a long-term 40-year hold in a TFSA to maximize returns? Or would you recommend a different investment into an American fund to maximize returns over that same time horizon?

I like the strategy of investing in small-cap stocks for higher growth but also don't want to disregard the balanced portfolio if you believe that small-caps will continue to underperform moving forward.

Looking forward to hearing your thoughts

Q: Hi 5i team,

What would be your current 5 best (highest conviction) buys in each of the following categories please.
1. small cap
2. mid cap
Hold target is 3-10 years or longer.
I prefer these categories as they seem to have the most torque (in the right environment) albeit also the most risk.


Cheers,
Steve

Q: Hello 5i
How do you feel about the HPS bought deal?
Logical? Good opportunity to add to a position?
Thank you

Q: Thoughts on this? Should one start accumulating?
Thanks

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
This gold company is up 12% on high volume. Your opinion please...what do you think? Thanks for your help.

Q: With the markets at all time highs, are there certain stocks you think people can scoop up or add to that have good growth opportunities at a reasonable price? I know 5i is not usually worried about buying companies at 52 week highs, but it is still something difficult for me!

Q: Do you expect better results going forward with the changes being implemented? What would be a good entry point? Do you foresee any significant headwinds?

Q: What are your thoughts on this company? Is there something you prefer in this space?

Thanks!

Q: What are your comments for current new money in these small caps

Q: I own both Propel and Goeasy. Goeasy I've owned for quite some time, Propel I have been adding to slowly for the last 4 months. I would like to continue to own both. Would you balance the two out by selling some Goeasy to equal out the value of the two? If not, what sort of ratio would you suggest.
