Investment Q&A

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

Q: I hold small positions of each in my US RSP account and all have been down and show no obvious signs of a recovery. Should I sell and switch to alternate stocks.
Thank you

Q: Hello Peter and Team,

Cloudera just had another earnings beat quarter. Do you think that this may be a good buying opportunity, now that the buyout of Hortonworks appears to be integrated and the chart is starting to move in the right direction? Relative to other cloud companies, doesn't it seem inexpensive?

Thanks.

Brad

Q: Hi 5i team,

Can you please comment on Tecsys recent quarter? It seems to be a good quarter ...but is it just a one of?
Their transition to a SaaS model looks to be paying off and results may be more consistent going forward wrt revenues and profit.
Reviewing some of the prior Q&A, you had been luke warm on this company based on missing quarterly expectations and slower growth vs other similar tech companies.
Looking at their Key Ratios (provided on your your site), they appear uninspiring. However I note a huge jump in Consensus EPS Estimates between FY20 and FY21...like sixfold, ie .06 to .36 cents. All based on 4 analysts with a strong buy - moderate buy tilt. Is the analysts expectation a little to rosy?

Based on their (positive) quarterly results, could one dip their toes into this now and start a half position? I also note they just increased their dividend as per the quarterly results. It has provided a very good return over 1, 3 and 5 years...but so have DSG and KXS (which I already own).

Cheers,
Steve

Q: Hello, I saw on BNN an interesting interview with Coveo's CEO. Here is the link: https://www.bnnbloomberg.ca/video/i-hope-coveo-becomes-a-shopify-coveo-ceo~1823324
Question: My understanding is that the CEO doesn't feel the need to go public right now because they already have plenty of financing from private investors. He says that Coveo has the potential to be the next Shopify. This is quite significant. By the way the president of LSPD sits on the board of Coveo. Based on your experience, do you think Coveo could become public within the next year? What do you think of this company? Thanks, Gervais

Q: Quarterhill has decided to discontinue their listing on the Nasdaq... they have indicated that this will save them about $1,000,000. annually.
Was the U.S. listing that beneficial to them and do you believe that this will affect their long term growth opportunities? Also, have you heard of any rumbling in the market place regarding their lawsuit with Apple?

Q: Could you please give your current opinion on blockchain companies in general? Is it too early to invest in a basket of companies with this future theme? Are there any companies you are interested in at this time?

Q: Hi 5i team,

Like many here, I follow the 5G theme, but there is a proliferation of participants in many facets of the technology. I own KEYS and am happy there. About a year ago, I put INSG on my watch lists. It has been dormant since then but now seems to be breaking out. I don’t see any real catalysts as such. It missed its last earnings report, but I have read some positive reviews on its 5G prospects for hot spots and SaaS. It is a smaller name and I am unlikely to buy it but I was curious as to your thoughts on it.

Thanks again for the insight.
Dave

Q: Like many others here, I'm interested in possibly investing in 5G companies, but I keep seeing Doctors and experts in other fields, as well as former President of Microsoft Canada (Frank Clegg) saying they believe 5G will be harmful to Humans.
Obviously big companies involve in this field are no doubt aware people are worried, but is the investment community talking about it?
Here's a link for anyone interested:
