Q: Follow up to question and response about providing reports at least every 12 months on companies that are in your portfolios. TFII was last formally reported upon back in April 2022. You responded it was 'flash' reported in February 2023. When I search reports for TFII, all that comes up is April 2022. Where is the flash report hiding? It should appear when a search is done. I'm sure customers would appreciate having all reports in one area.

Q: RBC lowered target price to 153. Anything to be concerned about? I looked up report section and last time TFII was formally reported upon was April 2022. Can you explain why 5i feels TFII is a top pick? What are the main strengths and weaknesses going forward? What price do you see down the road and why?
A suggestion: company reports should be updated every 12 months. In TFII's case, it's 17 months and counting. I realize there are lots of questions about TFII but a report formally brings it all together. I'm sure your customers would appreciate this.

What makes them stand out?

Q: Hi Team
According to portfolio analytics I need to increase my industrial weighting by 7%. At present I have AMAT, CNR and LRCX. CNR is the largest weighting here.
At present my portfolio is 7% Industrials and I should be at 14%.
I also own ZSP and XIU but I am not sure if analytics accounts for the specific sector weights there when it figures out your weighting or if it only counts as a broad spectrum diversification.
Which stocks would you recommend adding. This is a non registered account.
Thanks for your help.

Q: Hello,

There hasn't been a question on this company since 2021 - can I get your updated opinion of it? They just reported earnings this week and beat EPS estimates.

For a portfolio light on industrials, would you recommend it? If not, can you list a few industrials that you consider better - US or CDN.

Thank you,

Q: Hello,

As a whole, I own too many positions and am looking to concentrate my portfolio. I own positions in both TFII and CJT that are in the same industrial transportation sector. I have a larger position in TFII, which has done well while my smaller position in CJT has slumped.

If you had to sell one of these, which would you choose? Or are they different enough to keep both? What do you think of CJT, down about 30% in the past year?

Thanks,

Q: Retired investor with a long term view. I will need to take some money from that account for living expenses. Holding both stocks sitting at a 4% weighting in a taxable account with 180-300% profit. Industrials are my largest holdings. I would like to take one down to 3% and reap some profit on the way. Which would you sell first or would you scrape a little bit of both?
Thank you for your invaluable service.
