Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hi Peter and Team,

The last question on the ETF DATA was last August. Please share your updated opinion of this ETF, and I hate to admit it, but the proceeds of the sale of some CSU will be used to purchase DATA, unless you have misgivings about DATA in general.

As always, thanks for your insight.

Q: Hp sure has had a big drop. The dividend looks interesting. Thoughts on HPQ overall and if the 6.3% dividend is safe. Any other red flags ?

Q: Hi 5i,
What would be your choice today between these 2 US companies in a TFSA?

Thanks.

Q: I sold this 'darling' in a new account in December for a tax loss, looking to re-purchase same in Jan. I didn't expect the price to drop an additional 20%. Do I re-purchase CSU during a 'down turn' momentum or ???

Q: Hello everyone,

Oracle has lost half it's value since peaking in September, and I have ridden the wave up and now down. They just announced a $50B equity and debt deal on Feb 01, 2026 to finance their cloud build out primarily for OpenAI. I am getting concerned about the amount of debt they are taking on, and I am wondering if it's time to sell and move on. Thanks for your comments.

Q: Why the dig drop in SHOP today. Down 7% to 10% as of early afternoon. It's performed poorly for a while. Any news that I'm missing? What do you (5i) expect next earnings which I believe is February 11.
