Q: Hey,
I’m down 20% on Photon right now, it makes up just over 2% of the account it’s in and around .5% of total portfolio. I held through it’s great run up last then watched it fall lower than I started. Are you confident enough in another future run to look at the price now as a good chance to average down? Or is it too speculative and I should just hold now and be patient.
Thanks

Q: Hi there, I had asked a question earlier and you had suggested TEAM as an alternative to SLACK. After doing some searches in the Q&A section it seems like AYX and TEAM are very favourable. Would you be comfortable taking a small position in both names at current prices? Also, are these 2 names your current favourite US growth names? Thanks!

Q: Hi,

Would you consider doing a report on AT-Acuity Ads? Your analysis on this stock is much appreciated. How is their balance sheet, cash flow, debt level, management and their product. Peter's article in the Financial Post got me interested in AT because I sold TTD rather prematurely (and I am kicking myself) ..Would you recommend one to buy the same stock (TTD) at a higher price or consider its little brother?

Q: What is 5i's thoughts about Sangoma's bought deal financing announced this morning at $1.55. Despite the dilution is it good for current shareholders given the Company's track record? Will it improve valuation metrics (trading multiples) going forward? Currently Sangoma trades less then 1X sales which seems very cheap against their peer group and other small caps.

Q: In assessing my portfolio weightings, I am wondering if most companies in a given sector should largely be expected to act similarly to events or will the across the board reaction differ from sector to sector? I would expect, for example, to see most REITs drop if interest rates were to rise or most oil companies not do well if the price of oil drops.

But I wonder how "homogeneous" the tech sector is. I currently hold full positions of KXS, SHOP, GIB and CSU. To me, these are all rather different kinds of companies. For example, GIB has a lot of recurring sticky government business, SHOP is growing in the retail sector and KXS is a smaller company selling to worldwide industrial companies. In your experience, would all these stocks be likely to drop (at least to varying degrees) in a tech sell off or are investors a bit more discerning than that? The reason for my question is to help me decide if being a bit overweight in tech is as risky as being overweight in utilities might be as I would expect every company to decline by similar amounts if rates rose.

I would like to add Lightspeed to my holdings but not at the risk of increasing my risk in my overall portfolio.

Appreciate your insight.

Paul F.
