Investment Q&A

Q: Could I have your suggestions for 3 or 4 small cap growth stocks (probably tech) US or Canada? I have noticed PNG which I take to be a recent addition to your growth portfolio. I am reasonably risk tolerant. Thanks Jim

Q: Hi 5i - with the upcoming NATO meeting and anticipated desire for countries to increase their defense spending, which US and Canadian companies are best positioned to benefit in the next few years?

Q: Currently I hold Fortis (FTS), Hydro One (H), NextEra (NEE), and Brookfield Infrastructure (BIP.UN) in the utilities space. I have been thinking of adding Capital Power (CPX). Could you please rank the five in terms of best overall expected return over the next few years? Would you consolidate any? Thank you.

Q: Do any of these companies fwd P/E's or P/S's concern you at all vs their expected growth rates?

They range from 50x to 127x. I'm looking to increase positions in NBIS/SRAD/GENI so I'm thinking of trimming some of these higher valuation names to add to these lower position names. However, I don't want to trim these long term compounders if they still have legs, but at such high valuations, when does it make sense to trim a name like CRWD to add to NBIS currently? I understand that great companies generally have higher valuations for a reason and investors have to pay up for great long term compounders. Thank you!

Q: Can you give me your top 3 favorite covered call etfs on Canadian utilities. TY

Q: hello 5i:
regarding the subscription receipts: they are currently selling for less than the stock price. If I have this right, I can buy the receipts and then convert them to regular shares. Why would I not do that, rather than pay the current stock price?
thanks

Q: I just got my monthly dividend for GDXY in my account dated June 23/25 ..... Multiplying the amount by 12 and then dividing it by the current value of the position { and then multiplying by 100 } I came up with a 68.62%% yield { annualized } for the month of May. { April was up too at 59% } ..... That is considerably higher than the 42% the ETF is shooting for .... First, are my figures correct ? ..... And second can this increase be attributed to what I call the " Trump Option Premium " ? .... Trump's on again off again tariffs, and whichever country he decides to threaten or bomb the snot out of ...... This makes for a volatile market which makes for higher option premiums ? ..... If not to what does 5i attribute these two months of higher than the norm yields to ? ...... { In a few days my SLVO dividend will be deposited. It will be interesting to see what that annualized return will be . It was 32.5% for April } ...... Thanks for your terrific service .....

Q: The BNN Guest today had the following to say - do you agree, and if so, can you suggest a way to mitigate this if an investor needs growth for retirement funding?

"Three of the largest stock market peaks over the last 60 years were in 1968, 2000, and early this year. Each of these peaks have also coincided with peaks in U.S. household equity holdings as a percentage of total financial assets. In 1968, the percentage reached 28 per cent and in 2000 it was 25 per cent. Today, it is around a record 30 per cent, surpassing prior peaks in 1968 and 2000.

Foreign investors also hold more U.S. equities as a percentage of their total financial assets than ever before. All this crowding by both foreign and domestic investors into the U.S. stock market has contributed to a rich valuation for the U.S. market. At the same time, as U.S. stocks have reached peak popularity, historical evidence suggests that whenever the valuation of the S&P 500 has reached its current level, the forward 10-year annualized return has averaged around zero. And if you think you can't do worse than zero per cent over 10 years, after the booming 1990s, the S&P 500 declined 23 per cent over the next decade."

Q: Hi 5i
Teal Linde had DAL (48.28) as a Top Pick today. I see the EPS estimates have been ratcheted down a lot over the last 90 days, but still projected to make $5+ in 2025. So with PE under 10 would you agree that this may be a good entry point? He believes that they cater to higher end travellers who aren't affected much by inflation, tariffs, etc.

Thanks, Greg
