Investment Q&A

Q: After a year of relaxing, NXT finally made it back over US$60 this week. What are your thoughts on this company? Hold for future growth or sell due to Trump's ambivalence toward renewable energy? Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i,
May I please have your thoughts on the latest results from Nextracker?

Also, what are your thoughts of how the shift in sentiment away from renewables by the new US administration might affect this company in the coming year and then beyond that over the next few years?

Q: Happy holidays…. Tax loss selling….. proxy for TLT, VDE, EMXC, OXY, PICK, LLY, NXT, ZBH, AMD, -Thanks

Q: Has 5i screened for US-listed shares that are likely to be candidates for tax-loss selling now to end of year 2024? Has 5i done a blog or magazine article or other post identifying US-companies that you would consider attractive to buy? I assume that such a screen would exclude US companies that are being sold off for reasons other than tax-loss harvesting. Thank you. :ao:sab

Q: I have some cash that I would like to put to work and I have small positions that I would like to reduce. My main objective is growth with a bias towards low beta equities at this time in my work life. I am about 4 years away from my planned retirement.

These are most of my held equities along with weightings. NVDA 13.3% CSU 6.4% BN 6.4% SAN 5.4% SHOP 4.8% CRWD 4.3% TOI 3.8% VRT 3.4% ENB 3.2% BIP-UN 2.6% BEP-UN 2.3%. The following are 1-2% positions 13.5% as group; COST TD ATZ BNS AMZN TTD PANW PRL BRK.B. The rest are< 1%/each approx 10% as group BCE ASML HPS-A TMDX ISRG TMO GSY ASPN DELL SNOW NXT.

I plan on continuing to hold most of these positions including the smaller positions (<2% positions). I would like to reduce the number of these smaller holdings.
Could you please rank these smaller positions with the keepers at one end of the spectrum to goers at the the opposite end of the spectrum.

Thanks for this.

Q: I am considering moving on from CELH and NXT. Do you feel there are more attractive replacements for these names today?

Q: How would you rank the above listed companies today for a long term hold?

Q: Since the results of the US election were clear, I wanted to move a few dollars around preparing for the next 4 years. Can you rank in order the 12 stocks listed from best too worst. Only looking for capital appreciation over the next 3-4 years. Thanks.

Q: Lots of volatility based on the election results. This may be too early to ask, but are there any stocks that have risen (or fallen) too much on fundamentals as a result of the election? Looking for potential sell (or buy) opportunities if you think appropriate.

Q: Would you sell the above stocks in light of Trump winning the election? Any others often cited positively that should be included?

Q: Thank you for your answer to my last question about NXT a little while ago, that turned out to be a good call. Following earnings the other day, the share price has popped up a bit and then again today. I am still down 20% in a taxable account and am considering selling for the tax loss. I know you do not talk about technical analysis in the Q & A but for the next short while do you see where the share price might go?

Many thanks for your excellent service.

Q: Hi 5i Team,
Pls comment on Nextracker Inc qty earning result and this company going forward.

Do you still like this company?

Buy , hold or sell?

Q: Hello Team,

I am re-balancing my portfolio and I have a bit of cash to invest. Of the 12 stocks listed, can you please rank in order you would add to an existing stock. Looking for a 3-5 year hold and not worries about risk and or industry. Thanks again.

Q: Greetings. I'm considering some fall cleaning and would value your opinion on each of these (currently underwater) listed stocks. Hold or toss over the side and go trolling for more profitable opportunities? Thanks for your response.

Q: Hello 5i,

Thank you for answering my question yesterday. We are looking at replacing CELH (-50%), CTRA (-3%), and NXT (-23%) in a TFSA or RRSP. From our question yesterday we would replace these stocks with CECO, ASPN, & AVAV (TMDX was purchased yesterday. Is your conviction higher on CELH over CECO, ASPN, & AVAV, or ISRG?

Thank you
D&J

Q: I hold full positions in both these stocks and see them as both tied closely to the renewable energy industry. Am I correct? If correct, which one has the best growth profile should I decide to sell one to reduce my concentration risk? Would you expect these stocks to fall with a Trump win?

Q: Can you please rank in order which of the stocks from best to worst you would Recommend today, and are there any that you would Not Recommend at this time (no ranking required)?


TMDX, PLTR, CECO, ASPN, AVAL, LAZR, BIDU, TSLA, VRT, ELMD, NXT, DRX.

Thank you
D&J

Q: Hello Team,

Are you able to rank the 12 companies listed from 1 to 12 in terms of capital appreciation over the next 2-3 years. I currently hold all of the mentioned stocks but do have some cash to deploy. Thanks.

Q: My losing stocks are LSPD (-65%), MG (-45%), CELH (-53%), and NXT (-40%) in my portfolio. I am contemplating an annual cleaning to weed out the poor performers before year end and invest the proceeds elsewhere.
Please recommend if any of the above mentioned stocks are still worth keeping for recovery in the recent interest rate cut environment ? if not, please rank the order of wipe out sequence. Thank you for your excellent service. Bill.

Q: I am significantly under water in a non-registered account with a holding in NXT, which I bought some months ago. What is your current outlook for the company and the share price going forward? Time to realize the loss and move on? If so, what are some of your current favorite ideas? I have a good number of the companies mentioned by you folks in the Q &A, so 3 or 4 names to choose from would be a help.

Many thanks for your excellent service
