Q: Hey 5i Team,

There hasn't been a question in a while on TTCF. It's latest Q report May 9) showed pretty good growth, reiterated forecast, new product to be released soon (non-frozen foray) they are low on debt, price has been crushed from IPO, they're small so risky but, .... at this low point they look to be worth a punt - what are your thoughts on it?

Q: Hi Team,

Have the fundamentals of these guys really changed that much?

It seems to me the biggest change is the fear or delinquencies?

Do you see decent chance of pretty good gains 3 years from now or is bankruptcy a real possibility? I have read speculation that banks may cut them off if they see a rise in charge-offs

Q: Hi

TD Bank sells GICs for several other banks. Suppose I purchase two GICs through TD Waterhouse, both for 100K: one held by Homequity Bank and one held by BNS. Is the CDIC insurance limited to 100K since I bought through TD, or would both GICs be covered?

Thanks

Q: I own KRR in my portfolio. It is the only precious metals stock I own. My question is regarding the rising fuel costs associated with the mining process. Even if gold and silver go up a lot, wouldn't margins on producers be squeezed simply due to the rising cost of fuel?

If that is the case, would it make more sense to buy something like PHYS instead?

Thank you for all that you do

Q: Hi Peter
The IPO for WISE (previously TRANSFERWISE) was July 2021 and the share price has dropped from a high of GBP 11.4 to now about GBP 3.4. I realize you don't cover European or English stocks but I'd be grateful if you could provide some basic data, such as amount of debt, free cash flow, P/E etc. Is this a stock which you would hold over the long term? As there is a lot of competition in the fintec sector, is there any news of duress experienced by WISE, or a likelihood of the firm going bankrupt?
Thanks a lot.

Q: The difference between these two is fairly wide. I am under the impression the gap should have closed over time but it remains fairly high. I have a small number of shares of BIPC and a larger number of BIP.UN. Thinking of selling BIP.UN and buying BIPC with the proceeds, both have some gains. Both in a Cash account. Thoughts?
Thank you.
