Q: Hi Everyone!! Peter, I always enjoy your article in the National Post. In this past one” Five things I wish I knew when I started out”…. You mentioned as one of your points , that companies that don’t need any money at all are the best investments . Could you please list a few Canadian and US companies that are in that situation?
Cheers,
Tamara

Q: With respect to the reverse split and opting out of it, I was just told by a broker at an institution that I deal with that you cannot opt out of it. The company has made the decision to do the reverse split. This broker put me on hold and confirmed his advice with his superiors.
My wife was speaking to her broker who she has known for years and he advised that if she had TRI with him, he would provide the documents to opt out. Does this mean some brokers will accommodate an opt out and some will not?
Thank you,

Q: Could you please comment on TRI, its valuation and why it defies gravity seemingly independent of its peers? Does it have comparables and what is future growth potential?

Q: Hi 5I team,

I manage a very small RRSP for my daughter and was hoping that you could give me 2 Canadian and 2 US stocks that I could add to her portfolio.
I would appreciate an entry point for them and also your reasons for the selection.

Thanks,
Joe

Q: Just a follow up to my prior question. I was under the impression that Kxs is very expensive . Can you please give me an idea of whether you would consider if it was or not and what the numbers tell you.

Also, when you answer questions about stocks to buy you rarely mention TRI. This stock also has done amazingly well this 12 months +15%. How do you rate TRI as a buy at these prices and compared to other stocks you like?

Thanks

Q: Hi 5i and Peter,
In a show down between DSG and TRI which company would you pick for the largest overall return for the next 5 - 10 years. I like both companies and having a tough time deciding. The past 5 years their CAGR share price (including TRI's dividend) has been DSG - 22.6% and TRI - 24.3%.

Q: This question concerns a well diversified Canadian portfolio (~30 holdings), focused slightly toward growth.

Looking to add to positions in ATZ, DOO, BN, BAM, GSY, KXS, TRI, PBH and T as well as initiate a partial position in WELL, all for long term holds (5+ years).

Would you rate any of these as a wait-and-see rather than a buy today? Please rate (1-10) in terms of your conviction to buy today, along with suggested target buy range [great, okay].

Thank you.

Q: "Thomson intends to return "at least $2 billion, which will be combined with a share consolidation or reverse stock split", to be funded by proceeds of the sale of LSEG shares later in 2023."

Do you have more information about this reverse stock split and how it might affect investors who currently hold the stock. Is it in an investors best interest to purchase more shares or wait to see what the actual transaction will be.

Thanks for your usual great service, Len

Also, any other suggestions? Thanks.
