Investment Q&A

Q: Sorry to sound like a broken record, but I'm kind of a deer stuck in headlights right now with regards to these software names, notably CUS, LMN, TOI, and with the news impacting TRI this morning. I've largely held onto these names and I'm not sure what to do here. Seeing constant and relentless daily selling is tough to stomach and time will only tell how much AI will impact these companies fundamentals.

In the meantime, what do I do? I don't want to hold onto losers and continue to see these go down further, at the same time, I don't want to sell at these lows. I know trimming some is an option. I have positions in these other names, do you feel any of these are vulnerable to AI severely impacting them? CRWD, SHOP, SRAD, GENI, SPOT

Thanks!

Q: Hi 5i Team,

These two companies have pursued similar strategies it seems over the years and both have been badly beaten up. Is there a preference among the two of them and why?

Thanks!

Q: When does Lunin next report and what do you expect in revenue and earnings?

Q: Hi multi-part question on robotics.

Amazon is clearly using robots to automate it's operations, who do they buy from?

Would you consider amazon a front-runner as a seller of robotic / automation systems?

Other top picks in Robotics industry? (can exclude Tesla)

Q: I’ve heard and read comments that Constellation’s precipitous drop is fuelled by sentiment.

Would the same not be true of its climb?

In retrospect would you say that the $5000 price was overvalued? Was it ever worth that much? What ever “worth” means. Or were investors just chasing the latest thing.

On a positive note, I now no longer have to sell some to rebalance.

Q: These stocks are all down today. Does this have anything to do with Anthropic?

thanks

Q: Another question about TOI...I've owned for a few years now, entry was at $120, so no under water by a decent amount. I have read your other recent answers on TOI describing that fundamentals have not changed. What would trigger you to give advice to sell with this stock? Thanks much

Q: Why do you think SHOP has been showing so much weakness?

Q: Given the drop in CSU and OTEX today would you be buyers of either?

Q: Hi, I’m selling one, selling half position on another and keeping one, in what order would be the best in your opinion.
Trying not to get to panic mode but these stocks are relentless. Cash is looking good right now. Thanks

Q: Don't see any news. Why is SHOP getting hammered 10% today? I know it's a volatile stock but could someone know something? Analysts are generally positive about it. Thoughts? If no reason for downdraft, could this be a buying opportunity?

Q: Please help me make up my mind on what to do with Descartes, down 40% in one year down 16% YTD. Looks like it and CSU are on a race to the bottom. Your thoughts on DSG would be greatly appreciated.

Q: Hi Peter and 5i Team,

I manage my son’s TFSA. One of his holdings is Kinaxis KXS, which has been held for a long time. The average cost per share is $49.56, and the last time I looked, KXS is trading at $136.59.

Noticing that, based on answers to other members, 5i is becoming more frustrated with this company, so I’m wondering if any action should be taken.

Please advise if there are any other TSX-listed companies or ETFs (other than the CSU family) that have better prospects than KXS going forward, or would be wiser to “stay the course”?

Thanks for your insight.

Q: Would you buy GlXY on this pullback?
Also can you comment on the reasons for the decline in MSFT and Shopify ?

Q: Everyone, I asked AI about the psychology of CSU stock price falling and below is the summary portion of the full answer, and it is a interesting response,

Recent CSU Price Pressure – Real Examples

Here are some real movements that show how psychology plays out:

• Analyst Calls & Target Cuts
Analyst price targets on CSU have been trimmed by brokers recently, even while maintaining Buy ratings. That doesn’t mean the business is weak, but it signals caution to the market. 

• Technical Downturn
CSU has traded under long-term moving averages—a common trigger for mechanical and psychological selling pressure. 

• Sentiment vs. Fundamentals
Even when overall earnings and free cash flow remain strong—as reported in various market discussions—the share price can lag because investors are pricing in uncertainty about profitability trends or strategic direction.

🪞 So What’s Really Happening?

When Constellation Software’s stock falls:
• It’s often fear or uncertainty driving price, not necessarily deteriorating business fundamentals.
• Leadership changes + sector narratives can outweigh positive earnings or cash flow in the short term.
• Technical trading patterns and valuation psychology can accelerate moves once they start.

In short:

The stock price can fall even when the company is doing fine — simply because investors feel unsure, reprice expectations, or shift narratives.

That’s not unusual in markets, and it’s why price moves don’t always equal financial failure.

Q: For smaller accounts looking at this new ETF - QMVP. New product but showing 200+M in AUM , what do you think as a core holding for growth?

Q: For growth which do you prefer ? VGT seems to have more stocks in small, mid and large cap space but QQQ large cap.

Q: I bought this because I know 5I likes it. Analysts seem to like it too. Do you think this is a good time to add more or perhaps wait? Of course, hard to say where markets are headed!

Q: I know this is really a tough one, but where would you expect CSU to bottom out?

Q: Hello Peter & team

Tried searching the database to see what questions had been asked about this new technology and failed. Please provide an analysis of the photonic crystal market in Canada, encompassing various aspects such as market size, segmentation, growth drivers, challenges, and emerging trends. Also which companies you might recommend and if you think now is the time to begin building a position in a portfolio. Has 5i started a position in any of their mock portfolios?

Thanks for all you do
