Investment Q&A

Q: Could you please comment on their results and outlook?

Thanks,

Q: I purchased Magna a few months ago based on 5i’s comments of the company. I’m down 17% in favourable market conditions. Why?
What has changed? I appreciate your service.

Q: I bought TTD @ $200 (pre-10:1 split) and rode it upward to a peak of $970 during the pandemic. Since December 2020 it has settled back and been as low as $48 in 2021. My question is whether the good times are over and it's time to take my profit from this stock and move on. Thanks.

Q: Peter and team
I have not asked about ETFs in this forum before, and hope it is OK to do so
I was just looking for your thoughts on the Hamilton HDIV ETF launched today
Thanks
Phil

Q: Please comment on Magna's acquisition announcement today.

Thanks

Q: I am interested in ABCL based on my belief that the technology has many potential applications for many years to come. However, there are a few things I am wondering about. The stock has been on a steady decline for months, I presume due to the release of restricted shares and the fear that revenues will decline post-covid.

I expected that ABCLs Covid treatment would gain more acceptance and use than it did...esp. in places like India that were so desperate. But for some reason it just sat on shelves across Canada, even though it was approved federally, and by the FDA in the US. This makes me wonder about ABCLs marketing and business development. I know they have some partnerships with large partners, but I find it hard to quantify those in monetary terms.

What are your thoughts on these concerns? Do you see the continued decline as a sign of problems, or is it more of a buying opportunity for long term investors, and what is your confidence level?

Thanks,

Q: Good evening team,
I currently hold IPA. What do you make of the trading today? It's not too often I see companies trade 6 times their float. In your experience, what does this sort of trading suggest to you?

All the best

Q: Is there a simple formula I can use to calculate what price an oil company should be trading at. I would like to use it for Parex and a couple others.

Thanks Steve

Q: Do you know the reason for low volumes for this security? I'm interested in purchasing for a non registered account as it has come off a little recently. A little surprised given the size of the company. US listed BIP has much higher volume but will come with a withholding tax correct?

Q: I am looking to invest in an ETF for a period of 5 to 10 years and have a medium to high risk tolerance. Can you suggest 5 to 10 ETFs that should be considered? Thank you very much

Q: This is not a question but response to a comment posted earlier. RBC platform issue is sorted and the site is now up

Q: Just looking for an opinion,

In what scenario does this ever get back to it's glory days before the oil fallout years ago? I have owned this for sometime in a TFSA and wondering if I should just keep holding due to not being able to harvest tax loss or take the loss and move the proceeds into something else in a different industry where over time I could recoup the loss.

Q: I have a well diversified portfolio across all industries - mix of small cap to large cap, value to growth names). In the dividend category I currently hold AAPL, TCL.A, SIS, MX, DBM, ENB, PKI, BAM.A, AQN, PBH, BNS, CM, MFC, SLF, BAC and GSY. Although I am a fan of MG and TFII, I do not wish to purchase either of them at current prices. I would like to add two or three dividend players to this list and would love to hear what you would do in my shoes.
Many Thanks

Q: Hello Team,
going forward, which would be your choice for growth and why between these very different securities.
Thanks,
Barry

Q: As of today, what would be your top 10 most stable Canadian companies, or ETF's, to invest in. Stable meaning those best able to ride out any market or economic downturn. Dividends are always nice but not essential. Thanks as always.

Q: I own a small position in TKO as part of a basket of copper stocks. It appears to be underperforming the others. My question is whether you see potential for it so as to maintain or add to the position or whether you would sell and transfer the proceeds to stocks I also own such as CS and ERO? Thank you for your advice.

Q: Do you like ZEM for a long term hold or Would you recommend an alternative for emerging markets exposure? Thanks.

Q: TWM announced it was spinning out Tidewater Renewables and selling assets to them to pay down their debt. Do you know when the IPO will be and your comments on what TWM is doing?

Q: Hello 5i,
Not a question, merely a comment.
I have had some trouble this morning logging in to both Globeinvestor and RBC. All of my other websites and bookmarks are fine. I get a DNS Failure message even though I have tried accessing these with three different browsers.
As a result, I have posted a new thread in the Forums under Trading entitled Financial Website Alerts with the goal NOT to complain, but merely to share any kind of on-line access problems folks might have with any financial websites so that others will have a sense if the issue is localized or broad-based and any information the members have can be shared.
I hope it proves helpful.
Cheers,
Mike

Q: Hi. I'd appreciate it if you'd talk a look at WORKIVA (WK). I'd be interested in any comments you might have for this NYSE SAAS stock. Thanks.
