Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hi 5i
I see you've added DIR.UN to the reports. That's good news.
I bought Dream Ind. 6 years ago because of your OK comments about Dream at that time. I'm up just over 100% and have nice dividends. So thank you very much Peter.
Do you have any other industrial reits that you feel are OK ?
Thx for your hard work

Q: I have chosen WELL as a positive example but I am puzzled by the apparent lack of performance for the sector. We have a health care problem; scads of people do not have a family doctor. I know the difficulty involves more than the services WELL can provide BUT I would have thought services such as those provided by companies like WELL would have been in demand, would have been able to provide some relief, their valuations would have prospered even during their development, and investors would have seen some benefits. Yet the sector valuations flounder. What am I missing?

Q: Hi everyone at 5i!!
I bought this stock prior to the market drop and am now 47% in the hole with it. I can either sell it and take a loss and buy it back later, or keep it for the next 5 years in hopes it will rebound. In these situations I sometimes don’t know what to do. I don’t need the money at the moment and having owned the stock before and done well with it I think it should do well again. Your musings would be welcome ! Cheers, Tamara

Q: Hello 5i,
Continuing on Pietro’s question posted on Oct 31, 2022, please recommend a few (3 to 6 companies) good buying opportunities in the cyclical sector.

Thanks,

Q: When you last commented on PDI you said "Okay with". Noting the one year return on fund value is minus 15% but the long term returns seem to be in the 8-10% range. I am in it for the dividend (I'm retired). Do you think the ~ 13% dividend is safe long term ? And how much of that 13% is ROC ? What are your overall thoughts on this one ??

Q: When looking at dividend ETF performance, are reinvested dividends included, or is the stated performance capital appreciation only, e.g. Morningstar performance for CDZ shows a 3.5% dividend and a 5 year total return of 6%.
Thanks Peter

Q: I hope to retire in about a year. I'll have a comfortable defined benefit, I've used the portfolio analysis to diversify my investments. I have a sizeable cash amount earning nearly nothing at a bank. I have contemplated GIC's but don't like the idea of having my funds locked up in the event I would like to direct it to a project or investment .
Would there be a ETF /bond that would be relatively safe that would mirror the GIC returns?

Q: ,After the 2 divestments in a few weeks DOC have recouped 9M$. Were those divisions cash flow positive? Will this new intake of cash help them navigate through this bad period and until the stock moves up before they have to issue stock. What would be their cash burn rate after the sale of these 2 divisions? I assume those were net positives for the company.

DEEEEEP under water, I don't expect to ever get back in the money unless I keep the stock several years if they make it there. In a registered account there is no point for tax selling. Bad investment, bad timing. Do you have an answer that can make me smile again? LOL LOL
Thank you

Q: Your last direct response on FLGT was Nov, 2021. Could you update your opinion on a value/growth basis, with a focus on "core genetic" testing elements rather than Covid testing. It seems to be growing nicely in core businesses, e.g., cancer NGS, has a very strong cash horde (from covid work) and, to me, ticks both value and growth boxes.
Thx, John
