Investment Q&A

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

Q: Previous question to 5i: What will be the effect on TC Energy if Coastal GasLink project price increases bya further $1.2B?
Previous 5i answer: "he noted increase would be about +10% to the current estimates. At this point, we think investors are expecting the worst and we doubt the share impact on such news would be too dramatic, perhaps 3% to 4% down."

What does 5i mean pls by "he noted increase would be about +10% to the current estimates"?

Thank you. Ron L

Q: Hi all,

I wanted to share this from a post on LinkedIn:

You have to be fluent in accounting to look at public companies.

Not because accounting itself matters.

But because accounting can obscure what matters.

READ THAT AGAIN

And your task it to translate GAAP into meaningful business logic.

Or use 5i Research :)

Happy Easter Everyone!

Q: Recently there has been some work done on distortions introduced by excluding stock based compensation from the financial statements. According to one London fund manager adding back $1.8 billion of compensation expenses actually places Intuit's P/E ratio at 43 rather than 28 times, which on the face of it seems worrisome. What is your take on this?

Q: NTR's SP has been hit hard of late. Is this just a usual market panic or there is substance behind this set back. I'm sitting on the sideline with some cash and is debating if I should add to my current position (still up almost 65%) or add to my DIR.UN position (currently at an 8% loss).

NTR currently yields about 3% and DIR.UN about 5%. However I'm more interested in growth and less so than yield. Your advice? Thanks.

Q: Do you know the reason that BIPC and BIP.un have been heading in different directions since the beginning of February. I thought that they were supposed to mimic each other. I own BIP.un for the yield in a tax sheltered account but maybe I should switch. Your thoughts would be appreciated.

Q: When I checked my investment accounts today I was surprised to learn all my Shaw shares were sold. I don't recall being informed in advance that this would happen. Is this normal, not to notify, just do it.

Thank you.

Thanks team
