Q: Which do you currently like better for growth. I must admit hearing that SHOP has started down the POS road makes me slightly nervous about LSPD. On the other hand LSPD has a lot of cash DSG a little debt. We also own SHOP, KXS,TEAM,NVDA,CSU,AYX in the tech space. Would be selling LSPD for a tax loss if you think DSG is better.

Q: Dear Sir,
Hearing a lot about the upcoming 5G system boosting economic activity. Can you suggest companies in the robotics, communications, chips manufacturer, etc. sectors that one can invest in to benefit from the 5G roll out? Alternatively, an ETF that covers this space would also be helpful. Thank you.
Regards,
Danny

Q: Hi, I currently hold CGI and have held it for a couple years now up 60% in registered account. I'm looking to switch to OTEX, DSG, or ENGH for more growth long term, what do you think? Can you rank these 4 stocks. I already own SHOP, KXS, LSPD, CSU and don't want too much overlapping tech. Thanks!

Q: Hi 5i team,

I know there are a lot of SHOP followers here. Late last week SHOP announced a partnership with PINS and introduced a new App which allows SHOP merchants to upload their catalogues to PINS. The deal is likely of little consequence for SHOP, but it should help PINS. I assume this would attract advertisers back to PINS if a broader range of products is now available. I thought PINS would have gotten a boost from the announcement. Are you still relatively positive on PINS? It seems to me it could be a nice acquisition for SHOP or one of the big guns.

Thanks again.

Q: Can you please comment on DKNG. It has done very well since the new year and hasn't suffered over these last few months. I know one should be buying good companies that are going up rather than supposed bargains that are falling but have I missed the boat on DKNG.. There don't seem to be any comments on 5i about draftkings.

Q: From CNCB: "LivePerson outfits companies with artificial intelligence-powered mobile and online messaging tools for customer service representatives, which intends to cut back on the notoriously long wait times consumers face in call center queues. The company......projects that traditional call centers will disappear within a decade."

Liveperson's revenue is essentially flat for five year, BUT, is ENGH's call centre business at risk of being massively disrupted by new technology like Liveperson?

Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i team,

There hasn’t been a question on TER since last year. I have held it in the past. It beat on EPS and revenues the last Q but gave wide guidance for the 2nd Q which is almost the same as pulling guidance. It is into testing and automation systems for industrial applications and 5G, as well as robotics which could potentially be a growth area. Your database classifies it as technology, where I really have plenty, but I view it more as industrial. Is it a decent investment for industrial or is there a better option?

Thanks for the insight.
