Q: 5i Team,

How similar are these 2 companies? I have 2.5% positions in both (at a healthy profit - thank you).

Should I sell one? I own DSG in a cash account at +100% - hence have to pay cap gains, and KXS in my TFSA. I know KXS is a top pick of yours..

I'm fine with risk.

Thanks,

Q: Hi,
I have always considered tech companies like OTEX, KXS, medical companies like GUD, CCL.b and food companies like ATD.b, MRU to be non cyclical or at least below-average, is this correct?
Could you please give a list of companies from BEST to OKAY.

Q: You did a portfolio review for me in March and it was very helpful. I sold some losers, still have some stragglers and picked up a few great stocks & ETFs. I am wondering if I should hold CXI until later in the summer, in hopes business picks up or sell it now and buy KXS. I am down 40% in my TFSA and it's hard to sell but I am tired of waiting for good news. Your valued opinion, please. I know that it is no longer in your portfolio.

Q: Hello 5i
The positions for KXS (kinaxis) and PBH (premium brands) have run to 6% of my kids' RESP (thanks 5i!).
Should I sell off 1% of each and purchase PHO? Or as I am waiting for TIO to close and that is a 3% position would I use TIO funds instead to purchase PHO and just let Kxs and pbh run?

In terms of RESP management, my kids are 4 years away from drawing down on the funds. Our plan is to turn enough investments to cash each may to cover our annual contribution for each child for the September to April year. The remaining funds would be otherwise fully invested except the fund has roughly 5% cash and 0 fixed assets. Please comment.

Q: On a past BNN Market Call appearance by Ryan, I believe he commented on Kinaxis saying something along the lines that this stock could drop 20% in a year but investors need to understand the long term outlook for this stock and should continue to hold.

What other US or Canadian stocks would you place in this same category? Would Shopify or Tucows be included in this list?

I'm reading a book called The Big Money: Seven Steps to Picking Great Stocks and Finding Financial Security by Frederick R. Kobrick and he shares a similar view of thinking big for the long term. It's a great read and I highly recommend it.
