Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Good morning,

It looks like NVDIA posted excellent results - would like your take on the results and also your advice for someone who wants to start a position. Do you think it is wise to invest now or wait a little, and what would be a good entry price? The markets seem a little jittery as of late.

Thank you!

Q: Big bounce today on no news! (?) I've owned this since joining 5i. It has gone in and out of market favour but I've always enjoyed the dividend. I've been picking up dividend stocks for the last year and done well but I am not expecting a lot of growth from them from here. SYZ should get some decent growth and the yield is healthy. I like the SaaS field and this being tied to government work - which seems a way to get some beta away from the market business cycle. Does it really fit this bill? Yield makes me patient how do you see it over all?

TIA

Q: Hi,
I was looking at taking a position in UCTT.(Ultra Clean)
I believe the earnings were fine with a beat on both revenue and EPS including raised guidance,
The stock is trading at $41.31 currently. Looking at some of its financial metrics & estimates , this stock is trading at 1x NTM revenue. I would consider this stock extremely cheap currently.
Would you agree with my understanding and is there anything else you could add?
Thanks

Q: Good morning, I noted your recent response re. Canadian tech stocks, where you were asked to rate the quality of some of the leading Canadian stocks. I hold KXS (up approx. 200%) and OTEX (up 100%) in my TFSA. I also hold some of the other top choices but I do not hold MAGT or NVEI and only a small amount of TOI. Based on your ratings, I'm wondering if I should sell KXS and OTEX and use the proceeds to buy the other 3?

Q: Hi 5i,

I know there are many takeover rumours in the market. On Monday, Seeking Alpha had an article on an unidentified suitor, likely a private equity firm, eyeing AYX. AYX has had several disappointing earnings releases. In your last comment a couple of weeks ago, you said it might be setting itself up as a target and is hard to stay committed here. I don’t understand that comment. AYX would not deliberately show poor results or poor guidance to get a lower market valuation would it? Also, would you call it a hold here, because of takeover speculation?

Thanks again.
Dave

Q: Hi,
I was fortunate enough to be invested in UPST when the stock took off last week sometime.
Today, the closing of the financing was announced, it was apparently a pricing of the convertible senior notes.
Can I please get your general take on the company and the financing?
Thanks,

Q: In your answer to Dan today, you rated the desirability of holding stock for a 5 year + period. You show NVEI and MAGT as 8 and KXS as 6. While all three are expected to show good year over year earnings growth the analysts high target price for KXS is $288, up 60% while the high for NVEI is $169, up 30%.
Just looking for your thoughts on what would suggest a higher rating for NVEI and MAGT.
Many thanks
Mike

Q: The landscape of tech stocks in Canada seems to be rapidly evolving, with several impressive IPO's of late, and some very strong growth stories emerging. In a well diversified portfolio, how would you rate the desirability of holding each of the following tech stocks on a scale of one to ten, with 10 being a must own, 1 being a definite "no", and 5 being something OK, but nothing special. 5+ year holding period.

CSU, CTS, DND, DSG, ENGH, KXS, LSPD, MAGT, NVEI, OTEX, TIXT, TOI
