Q: I have noticed in recent questions that you have been ranking Savaria and tcl lower than you have in the past. I am curious as to why the change? Awhile ago you had very high hopes for these two. To a layman, the reasons still seem valid: an aging population and new vision for packaging. Please don’t see this comment as a criticism. I realise that things change. I also have esteem and a high level of confidence in 5i. I am just curious about the elements that brought about this change.

Q: Hello. I’ve held Savaria in an RESP for a number of years and have done decently though it has not performed well recently. Ignoring diversification etc I’m wondering if a switch into TVK might provide better returns. Thoughts on this ignoring other holdings?

Thanks

Q: I'm considering shareholder yield as a factor for investing. Can I have your opinion of such a strategy and is there a favourable/preferred % when looking at companies? Finally, would you have 5 US and 5 TSX companies that you would choose when considering this approach? Dock me as many questions as you like and thanks!

Q: Hi 5i, assuming Hurricane POTUS looses his bluster, one year out how would you rank the above small caps for potential?

Q: Hi, can you please comment on their recent quarters?
Anything to be concerned about with either company going forward?
I have owned both for several years (full positions) but SIS has seen a bit of slow growth (for me) the last year and I'd like to reduce to a 1/2 position. Can you please suggest an alternate stock(s) (any sector) given today's environment that should offer better growth potential.

Cheers,
Steve

Q: Hello 5i, on a scale of 1-10, 1= little tariff impact, 10= big tariff impact, stay away from, how would you rate these 2 companies?
In addition is there a Sector like Metals and Minerals that you would give a favourable ranking to? Thanks as always. Chris

Q: Hi Peter and Team,

Our Industrial holdings are too high, considering their vulnerability to the “Trump tariffs”, as you suggested in a question today from Shirley.

In what order would you reduce or sell any of these stocks? This is a daunting task, as I like them all, and they are among the “cream of the crop” in this sector.

I’m planning to use the proceeds to buy some US small and mid-cap ETFs and would appreciate any Canadian domiciled ETFs that you could suggest.

Thanks for your insight.

Q: Hi 5i, I'm struggling to keep the mentioned companies in the face of pending 25% steel and aluminum tarrifs. Would appreciate a review and some comforting analysis :)

One thing not talked about is the dollar impact on these companies which have US sales, and the potential benefit of monetary policy easing faster now that this tarrif nonsense has basically put on hold any investment in our industries.

My gut is telling me that our last year recession, masked by insane immigration, will become an official recession this year.

Thx

Q: Good Morning Peter, Ryan, Chris, and Team:
First off and maybe you have already answered this question previously but how do you think this "Tariff War" might play out after the bluff and bluster has completely settled down ?
Also, how do you think that across the board tariffs would effect PSI, NTR, and SIS in the short and medium term ??
Thank you so much. DL
