Q: Of 6 Wall St. analysts following Palantir 3 have a rare "Sell" on it with 2 Holds average sell PT ~ $17. I know the 5i take on price targets yet last Nov. Peter H. said this stock, then at 17 could be 25 one year out, yet here we are at $36. There's been good news flow on this lately but how much upside could there possibly be and why are these pessimistic analysts down on it?

Q: I have difficulty to understand the purpose of the spin off. Both companies are chasing for the same type of companies to continue their growth. How are they going to proceed when there is a target ? They will probably have 2 acquisitions teams working in tandem ? Which companies are going in the CSU portfolio and then in the topicus portfolio ... Thanks

Q: Your thoughts on one of these 4 companies for a long term hold over 5 years. Tecsys showed the highest 5 years return among the 4. Do you think that it still has a long way up?
Any other companies in similar fields that you would prefer over these 4 names.
Thank you!

Q: According to the portfolio analyzer, I need to reduce my tech. These are the companies I own (I'm not entirely sure WELL belongs on this list). Where should I start with reducing? Probably 2-3 names, or a partial disposition of a few. I'm up on all. Thanks!

Q: Down 15% on Unity and wondering if I should hold the course. Please explain why the stock has dipped and comment on both drivers and timeframes around future success. If I chose to bail on U, what two potentially high-growth stocks (any sector) would you suggest as replacements? Thank you.

Q: Hi 5i
I see that Nvei has done a pre-release of earnings, which you have already commented on as being very good

Is there some indication when they plan the actual earnings release?

Given the recent share price run up what would your expectations be for share price after the actual earnings? A further run up or not?
Thx
Jim

Q: Hello
Cree seems to be undergoing a significant shift with the disposal of their LED division and the ramping up of their silicon carbide semi conductor business side. They appear to be positioning themselves for future growth related to vehicle electrification as well as future 5G rollout. I would appreciate any insights you might have as to their abilities to see this through and how it might bode for the company's future growth.
Thank you

Q: Hi - I recently subscribed to Portfolio Analytics and I was looking at the suggested sector allocations of which I am out of whack. So I need to scale back in Technology - out of the above holdings, could you pls let me know which you would considering selling first? Or if they are all good for the long term (I have 10+ years), I could look at reducing position sizes.

Q: Good afternoon, in response to an earlier question I believe 5i indicated now would be a good entry point but to wait before adding to an exiting position. Not sure what the difference would be, can you explain further? Also, at what price would you consider this company a good entry point? Thank you.

Q: Several Canadian tech firms are intending to IPO this year including a couple from the 5i backyard in Waterloo, hoping to replicate the success of Dye and Durham and Shopify. Names such as Auvik Networks and Magnet Forensics have been mentioned in a G&M article with other names such as Thinkific and Vendasta. Do you have any insight into which might be the most interesting of these or any others?
