Investment Q&A

Q: How would you rank these companies in terms of growth and risk level? which 2 do you believe offer the best risk/reward potential?

Q: Hi, thanks very much for the 17% gain in just 7 weeks with CUS!! I have this in my TFSA and am now considering selling and replacing it with either RRX, HCG, KXS or DBO. Assuming diversification is not an issue, which do you see as the best upside potential? Or is it better to hold CUS for a little longer?
Thanks again! Ian

Q: Between these two companies, which one has more potential in the next 3-5 years, without taking on two much risk?

Great job on the changes to your website. I'm resistant to change so the transition is slow for me, but I'm starting to really like it :)

Q: Hi 5i, I'm investing on my NEW TFSA, the stocks I'm thinking on choosing from are: PBH KXS ATD.B GUD NFI RRX OTC.
I would like to reduce the number of stocks to 4. Which one would you suggest I go with, for a 5 year investment, I would like to max my growth and I do not mind taking some risk.
Thanks

Q: Hi, I have BOS CXI DHX DRT XTC IT and PUR.I would like to sell one or to and replace it with KXS. Which ones should go? Greetings Peter.

Q: I am choosing between KXS and ESL? Are they in the same business? Between these two stocks, which one offers a better value and has the most potential in the future? thanks.

Q: Good morning Peter and Team,

In my TFSA, I recently sold GS as I was able to take some profits thanks to the dividends, but was getting frustrated with the almost daily declines. As a result, I now have 22% cash.

I have the following:
24.4% Consumer Cyclical: DHX.B; XTC
10.3% Financial: CXI; CEW*
21.2% Industrials: ECI
11.7% Technology: DSG
10.4% Utilities: AQN
22% Cash

*CEW is a small holding of 2.6%. My iTrade account permits some ETF's to be purchased commission-free, so I use it when some non-dripped dividends are paid.

In an otherwise balanced portfolio, how would you deploy the cash? I was thinking about adding Kinaxis KXS, but would using all the cash make Technology too large a weighting? Or do you have some other ideas?

As always, I really appreciate your advice and insight.

Q: why the strong 5% potfolio recommendation for a stock 5i does not have a report on???

Q: If you were to rate KXS what would it be.
Publish if you wish.

Q: What should you do when a stock goes up more than 20% in a month. Case in point is Kinaxis which I am making 23% already. I am thinking of selling 50% or a full position and re-buying after it drops below 40. Do you think this strategy works. Thanks

Q: Over the last couple weeks, Kinaxis has staged a crazy rebound from a low of about $33. Is it too late to get in? I keep hearing about it's nice growth rate and am kicking myself for not initiating a position.

Q: KXS or CXR for TFSA 10yr hold and why?

Q: Hi Peter and Team,

I enjoyed Sylvia's question and your answer about Constellation CSU and other "high-tech" stocks. I realize that Sylvia didn't include Kinaxis KXS in her question, but I found a link to a Canadian Business article that describes the type of technology that KXS is involved with, and lists some of their high-profile clients. Perhaps Sylvia and other readers may benefit from the article.

Q: Hi Peter and Staff. I have very small positions in the stocks below and have a small amount to add to 2 of them. Sector allocation is not an issue..could both be in same sector and not matter in my weightings. Which two would you pick and why?

CCL,DHX,KXS,MSL,OTC,PLI and TNC

Thanks for all you do

Q: Kinanxis earnings look strong with solid revenue and adj. EBITDA increase. Could you please comment on these numbers and Adj EPS. 2016 guidance seem to be in line with expectations. What's your take on the results and does it support current valuation. Thanks

Q: Hi Peter;
please comment on KSX numbers and the outlook for 2016.
Thanks,
Ron

Q: Hi

Couldn't see any news. Any spec reason that KXS is up 12% or just short covering?

Thanks

Sheldon

Q: I got a fresh infusion of money in my RRSP. I am thinking of adding some positions which have been beaten up badly. Should I keep some of this amount in cash for opportunities or invest it all. If you suggest investing What should be the order I should buy from among the following companies:

KXS
CSU
ESL
ATD
ITP
CCL
BYD
MDA
GIB
OTC
CIG
FSV
LNR

Q: KXS is down 30% in less than 2 weeks (Feb 1). The reason it is down so dramatically is well beyond market performance or the 'tech' sector. Even on a very up day like today at best it's flat.

What is happening with this company?

Thanks

Sheldon

Q: Like CSU lately, this stock is getting knocked down quite a bit this week. Don't see anything negative in the news. What do you feel is going on here?
