Investment Q&A

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

Q: With small companies I often check the quality of their web portal. ZOOMD doesn't impress me; some links don't work. They don't list a phone number in the contacts. Their address appears to be a law firm. Is the Toronto address just a front? I don't mind if the company is based in Israel but they shouldn't hide it. Ex-ceo has lots of shares to sell even if half is via controlled sale.

They had some big organizations as customers but i wonder how sticky these contracts are. And if not, why is that? Do you have any insights into it?

Q: I asked this question on June 1, 2025 but did not get an answer so I am asking again.

What is the difference in underlining risks between ZST and high interest saving ETFs like CASH and HSAV?
What is the difference in yield between them?
I have about $100k in cash to park for 1 year ish so I am looking for a bit of yield during this time.

Q: I normally keep individual stocks to a limit of 5% of my portfolio in a registered account. However, with ZWC being an ETF, how high do you think I could go, given that it is diversified in many stocks?

What would be an attractive price to buy into ZWC?

If ZWU is also held in the same account, how high could you go for that ETF (as a percentage of the account)? And would that affect the amount of ZWC held in the same account?

Thank you.

Q: Good morning. I bought these 2 last year around July or August in an unregistered 12 stock US account.
AGX is a triple, 9.8% of the portfolio ,CRS a double, 8.1% of the portfolio.
What do you see for them going forward? Do I trim? If so do add to NBIS , CLBT or SRAD. Thank you David

Q: Materials sector in Canada or US
In my 80s and we have very little to no exposure to any companies in any of the Materials subsectors.
I know that at our age we should probably invest conservatively and consider capital retention as imperative, but the advisers we had in our early income generating years had that strategy and we missed out on massive growth.
Since becoming a member of 5i, I have become bolder and made up a little lost ground, so I have some appetite for growth, but steer clear of absolute gambles.
What would you suggest for any stocks in the materials sector, where there is a moderate dividend, but ample room for growth?

Q: Hello 5i
Seems this company is having trouble regaining its money making status despite showing growth in assets.

Consolidated Net Income is way below prior year and barely dribbling higher quarter over quarter. Are they poor operators and more of this can be expected?

What are your thoughts on this investment and how much more time do you think is required until they can get it in gear?

Thanks
