Investment Q&A

Q: Long time subscriber. I know back in 2018, 2019 and 2020 this often came up on the questions recommendation lists. How does NVIDIA fare now? Is this still a growth story and is this a good entry point?

Q: What are your current thoughts on TEAM (Atlassian)? Do you see much upside for it this year if these market conditions continue and the fact that it is not profitable? Is it undervalued or overvalued at this point? Or do the long term potential benefits outweigh the current headwinds it is facing? Do you see it as a buy, hold or sell at this point? Held in a registered account so a small tax loss is not possible. Please suggest other options if you have higher conviction in other names (open to other sectors to continue diversification in a tech heavy portfolio).

Q: Hi 5iresearch
I am in a loss position with the above stocks. They represent a very small size of my portfolio. Which ones would have a good chance for recovery in the next 12 months? I am trying to determine which ones I should sell to allocate to other shares with better chances. You can give %s for their recovery in the next 12 months.
Thank you

Q: I am interested in your ideas for ETF that cover semiconductor stocks. For RRSP. Would prefer non-US-situs ETFs, if good ones exist (estate planning reasons); however, you can suggest US-situs ETFs as well. Can be either US or CA dollar-denominated.

Q: With the stock moving up lately, is this indicative of a deal being close at hand as I understand the company has put itself up for sale and if so, would $8 be a fair premium price for an acquirer to pay?

Much thnx

Q: Looking to see what your view is on this small caps results. From my vantage point they seem to be executing well and I am surprised the stock remains at current levels.

Q: Your opinion on the January 17th LSPD wpress release: reduce head count and profitability in 4th Q. Clayton

Q: The FTSE 100 near all time high co-relates to higher valuations in Europe correct? How does or could this impact TOI’s M&A strategy? The company has been stealth like in its communication and thin on traded volume. Do you have any insight to its recent activity? When does it report and what should we be looking for?

Q: Hi, Thank you for the updated research report on Constellation Software. I found it really interesting and highly informative. We have owned CSU shares in all family members' accounts and thanks to stock's glowing performance over these years ( Big Thanks to 5i's strong conviction), its weighting continues to grow. Even after trimming our holding regularly, every year, CSU has a weighting between 12% to 15%, in each portfolio. In addition, we also own TOI, between 2.5% to 3.5% for each member. We like CSU a lot and the TOI/Lumine spinoffs are just one of those host of reasons. Need your expert opinion on following:

1. We leave the CSU weight as is and continue to trim each year, eventually to reach,
say 7-10% weight over next 5-10 years. Do you see much company/sector risk with this strategy ?
( This approach has helped us in spreading huge built in capital gains - ACB $450, over separate years. Based on tenure/experience of our ownership, we are very comfortable with 10% +)

2. We cut TOI holding to <2% or eliminate altogether, as CSU already has a large ownership in the company.

3. We leave CSU and TOI, at currents weights 12.5%/2.5%, in each member's portfolio and do nothing.

Total Tech weighting in each member's portfolio is 20-25 %, balance being SHOP and KXS,

Thank you.

Q: Hi, Most of Quality companies' stocks in Technology sector have bounced back nicely, during the first 2 weeks in January. But Kinaxis has not moved at all and still stuck around $140 level. We have held on to a 2% position, based on 5i' conviction as being one of the best in supply/logistics software sector, similar to Descartes. Any reasons for the lagging performance ? Is it time to move on and allocate the capital to better use elsewhere ? Thank You

Q: In your opinion is a weighting of 10% of CSU too much to have in one's portfolio? Thank You.

Q: Thoughts on Intel at current valuations?

Q: Hi all at 5i!
I hold both and both are down substantially. I was thinking of selling one. Which one of the two would you say has a better future prospect? If you think both do then I may refrain from selling.

Thank you,
Tamara

Q: Can you rank which stock you would prefer in here to buy for a 3 year hold for maximum capital gain potential MSFT. CSU Descartes?

Q: What are the reasons of CLS’ recent strength? Is it a sell?

Thanks.

Q: DND has recently had a considerable rally. What do you think of the cashflow and profitability now - I am asking for an answer that assumes the takeover does not go through. What about valuation ratios currently and compared to assumed growth rates going forwards? Cheap, fair or expensive? Thanks.
