Investment Q&A

Q: If you were to add just one more stock to the Technology portion of your growth portfolio. Which of these two would you add and why please? Thanks again.

Q: Hi, I got in to this at approx $45 with a half a position, so down 18%. It appears to be fairly priced now at $40. Just wondering if I should/could top up my posn now or wait a bit for a better price around 29 December.

Thanks

Q: Would you swap a position in CGI for ACN ( I hold in a registered account)? CGI's price appreciation has been underwhelming over the past 5 years compared to ACN.
Anything in particular about ACN's services or management quality that allows it to dominate CGI?

Q: Everyone.
I am looking for the current number of shares held by institutions and insiders. I can find data to the end of September or some in October. When does insiders and institutions report the number of shares they hold on LSPD?

Q: SC & MC especially high growth tech cos with no profit have been hammered recently, Today even the big techs were attacked. Now that the Fed stated that it will increase tapering of monthly purchase & rate hike(s) likely sooner than later. Uncertainity is cleared up for now. So is it time to sell the high growth stocks with no profit like my aforementioned holdings. Would appreciate u views on each of them.All in the non registered a/c so can be tax loss selling to offset capital gains. Txs for u usual great services & views.

Q: I remember in the (i.e. Nortel -- I even worked as a contractor there -- one of a lot of tech stocks) days when they participated in a massive sell-off which took years to recover. Is this deja vu so to speak?

Q: Thanks for your excellent work. I've recommended your service to friends and you now have made new clients.

Why is ENGH hated so much ? It's in a downtrend for more than 18 months now and I thought that they would find a near term bottom here with the last quarterly earnings report.

Let's recap, investors hate high growth high valuation stocks. Investors also dislike slow growth and decent PE. Where do you see fit ENGH ? I thought we would see the end of the death spiral with this earnings report. Nope, so I guess we are now just a few believers like me and the founder of course holding the bag.

Q: Please list around 5 TECH stocks that you like in US or CAD that are not 'expensive' when compared to the high fliers with little to no earnings. Please exclude the FB, GOOG, APPL, AMZN, NVDA and MSFT.
Thank you.

Q: Can you please comment on IVX?

Q: When you answered Chris' question yesterday about the top 6 picks for US stocks for a 5 year horizon, did your list of stocks come in your estimation of best performing? If not, Please do so.
Thanks!!!

Q: I hold LSPD in a TFSA and am planning to replace it with APPS. Would you suggest making the switch now...or waiting til tax selling is behind us in January? Thank you.

Q: Hi the great team, can you explain volatility of shopify?

Q: Can I get your perspective on KWE stock’s reaction to the announcement of two days ago - KWESST Signs Master Agreement with Global Defence Contractor. It has fallen 20%+. I would also appreciate your thoughts on the company overall. Thanks.

Q: Hi Team,
You had mentioned the expectation of potential "small cap bounce" scenerio in January. Does this usually happen within the first couple weeks in January or what's the history on that? Also, if one was to use some "lottery ticket" money to buy some call options on a high beta name due for a bounce...would AT (acuity ads) be one to look at with options expiry Jan.21? I realize this is not a typical strategy, more of a casino night play. If you don't like this move, do you have any other call options strategies you are spotting right now that if they work out would yield some big gains?If so please list the precise call option contract. Again, I know options are not usually discussed here or endorsed. Thanks

Shane.

Q: Hi 5i,
In your opinion is LSPD a falling knife that will gravely wound me if I catch it now and hold on for a couple of years and, if so, how much closer to the floor should one let it get before grabbing on? I guess, my question really is - if LSPD is not there now where is that floor, do you think?
Thanks for your thoughts.
Peter

Q: I have a feeling there are still people selling LSPD now for the tax loss, meaning to buy it back in 30 days. It might work out for them but selling it now means having to wait until the middle of January to buy it back. I think the bounce will happen sooner than that and the people who really make the gain are the buyers picking it up at fire-sale prices right now? What do you think?

Q: Hello 5I.
I have a pretty well balanced portfolio and am currently a little overweight tech. That said I am torn on weather to take a loss on $Sq and buy something like $CRWD or $Apps as I want to keep the growth tech. I am down 20%. The tax write off is a small help but not the decision maker. With that is mind do you think $sq has more upside vs the other 2 listed? Would you recommend I just stay the course with $SQ?
Thanks

Q: I had been wanting to buy Enghouse Systems for a few months but since it’s highs of 77$ it has been steadily coming down. Now sitting at 48$ and reporting good earnings for Q4 do you think it would be a good buying opportunity or should I wait until 2022? If so what would be a good entry price.

Q: Hi 5i,

Can you offer some comments on the recent selloff with ADBE?
Would you consider this a long term core holding?
What do you think of the current valuation today at $566.09 USD?

Q: Hello 5i Team
Why did the Technology stocks
sold off today when yesterday they all (most) rallied.What changed ?

Thanks
