Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Why did SHOP rise so much ( more in percentage than other stocks ) on Friday ? Is it a good time to buy WORK now to gain in 2020 ? Is PD , ZM, CRWD , oversold now ? AYX did not move on Friday which is a good day ?
Thanks a lot for your excellent service.

Q: Hello 5i
I just sold a small amount of Precison Drilling to recuperate a tax loss. I don't really want to keep anything like this permanantly in my portfolio but was hoping to buy it back in 30 days in order to get back at least what I paid for it. Is there any other stock that I could use as a substitute in the meantime?
thanks

Q: Hi 5iR Team, I have read a number of your answers to investors questions on PD. 5iR's main concern appears to be PD's high debt. I have read TD's most recent PD report dated April 27/18. In contrast as stated below it is positively a glowing report on PD as if management could walk on water. TD states....
"In our opinion, persistent negativity across the Canadian oilfield services sector
has created one of the best opportunities for investment in quite some time. In this context, we believe that Precision should be a core holding in all
energy portfolios, based on our view of its quality assets, compelling valuation,
potential for FCF generation and deleveraging, experienced management team,
scale advantage, strong U.S. exposure, leading-edge technology initiatives, size,
and liquidity. Specifically, as supply constraints result in near-term pricing traction
and rig upgrades, we expect that Precision's high-quality, homogeneous asset base
will require less capital spending than its peers, implying stronger relative FCF
generation. We are maintaining our ACTION LIST BUY rating and $7.00 target price. In addition, TD does recognize debt as a concern for PD but feels management is committed to better capital discipline.
Ok, 5iR other than high debt do you have other concerns that clearly TD has yet to uncover?
As a cautious investor it always gives me a better feeling when I can get both 5iR and TD analysts recommendations to concur.
Finally SES would probably be TD's second top pick in the drillers. Any thoughts on SES?
Thanks Team. Cheers, Chris

Q: I am doing a little cleanup of my losing positions. I have small "leftover" of BDI, HNL, AIM and PD which all seems to be dead money right now but I wonder if one of these companies could bounce back (BDI for exemple is trading at 0.3x book value) ?

Can you suggest a couple of good companies to replace these losers?

Thanks again for your good advice and use as many credits as needed!

Michel
