Investment Q&A

Q: Looking for two or three of your favourite industrial companies as I’m low in this sector.
Looking for good management, good valuation compared to peers, a dividend, and hopefully some growth. Please rank best 1st. For 5+ year hold. Thanks

Q: About 2 weeks ago, Adam asked a question and 5i answered, as follows:

Q. Would now be a time to review ones stock holdings, maybe raise some cash in anticipation of slight pull back or considering a pause in rate hikes, would you go all in with growth stocks?

A. We think it is too early to go all in on growth or add risks. While we think the overall outlook is positive, there are still plenty of challenges. .....We still wouldn't time the market with a cash call.....When doing a review, however, we would still focus on the fundamentals rather than the stock movements. We think high-quality growth stocks look good, and there is no need to keep or layer on extra risk when solid companies still remain cheap even after recent moves.

Two questions from me:

1. Two weeks is a mere blip in the investment time horizon, nonetheless with a bit of news (interest rate + market response, some earnings releases, etc,) do you have any further thoughts about the overall outlook for adding cash or more of a tilt to growth?

2. Can you list 10 high - quality growth names (Cdn or US) that fit your desired fundamental profiles, contemplated by your answer to Adam?

Many thanks for your excellent service.

Q: Hi there,

CSU and BYD are probably the 2 best stocks over the last decade. Both have strong similarities also. If you were to pick a few stocks today that show similar promise, what would they be? Are there any future CSU and BYDs out there?

Thanks!

Q: I'm thinking of either doubling our ATS holding (currently a bit less than 2%), or starting a new position in TFII. Can I have your suggestions?

Q: Can you add comments from the call? Anything material? How do things look going forward?

Q: Earnings just out. Appears very close to estimates, bit high and a bit low on different metrics. Forward looking view from mgt seems strong. Realize conference call is Tuesday am. Can you provide quick initial assessment and then follow-up after the call with more detail.

Q: between these 4 names which one would you think would have a greater gain in 3 to 5 years and safer as well please because it is going in to my rrsp contribution for 2022 tax season. Thank you like alway's

Q: Good morning, straight up which has more upside potential, TIFF or ATZ over a three year period, thanks?

Q: Good morning, 5i team,

CJT or TFI? Why?
Your thought is very much appreciated. Thank you!

Q: Hi, TFI seems to have made a sharp move up recently and is now at all time highs after being range bound for the last year with a few buying dips sprinkled in. I don’t see any catalyst for this sudden move. No news recently and earnings are not out until Feb 6. I was comfortable buying in the 130’s but not so now. Is there a price range you would be comfortable with? Looking for your opinion. Many thanks.

Q: TFII continues to move in the right direction. What are the big factors that keep the company performing so well? Is there anything that might negatively impact its movement? I have half position and thinking of buying but I am cautious it might fall back. Buy or wait for pull back?

Q: Hi please name 5 top growth stocks with high earning increase . Thanks.

Q: Should one be concerned that Alain Bedard holds all 3 positions of Chairman, President, and Chief Executive Officer. While one cannot deny that he has been very successful over the years, my concern is about governance. I also wonder about succession plans as this looks like a one man show. Please tell me why this should ( or should not) concern me enough not buy the stock. Thanks. Derek.

Q: So I have added BN and GSY as more growth orientated stocks to my conservative ( banks, utilities, telecom, reits ) non registered account and now looking to add two of these seven names to the mix. Which look the most attractive regarding valuation, balance sheet and growth and why ? Thanks. Derek

Q: Looking to add to my registered accounts. Could you please rank the above based on which you would buy as of today?

Many thanks,

Q: Need to reduce weight in the Industrial sector. Which one would you suggest trimming or selling:

WSP and TFII (13% and 14% Gain)
SIS (33% Loss)

Thank you

Q: I own the above Canadian Stocks.

Please rate each of the above as a BUY, HOLD or SELL and the reasons for your rating. Thank You.

Q: Will you please give your opinion of undervalued stocks in the industrial and consumer discretionary sectors (with good dividends). Also, related ETF's would be appreciated. Thank you for your great service.

Q: Sectors aside can you please prioritize these 3 stock in future potential/upside?

Q: If you had to choose one of these stocks, which would you choose for long term hold and why?
Thx
