Investment Q&A

Q: Great market response to decent Q($13.60 up .85).How was conference call? Time to add to my 3.5% position($17.28 p/p) Thanks for u usual great services & views

Q: I own all of these in equal weighting (7% each). Down quite a bit on NFI. Just seeing if I should keep it and give it the long term (10 years) to provide a good return or sell because there is a better company to replace it with for a better long term performance at this point. Any other recommendations as I do have some cash side lined at this point (30%).

Q: Own all 3 in TFSA: 400 SIS, 1500 SPB & 1000 BIP.UN (thanks to ECI purchase - ended up with 1500 - sold 500). Sitting on $50K cash in this account. I was thinking of adding 600 SHS of SIS and 500 SHS of SPB ( owned since 2009) which will still leave me with a fair bit of cash to deploy. Comments/suggestions. Not a lot to choose from in TSX group. Large equity portfolios: RRIF, RRSP & Non Registered accounts.

Q: Good Morning Team
I have the above industrials trying to reduce the amount of my positions. Which of the above would you suggest I sell? Also need to increase allocation which would you suggest I add to? Thank you. Heather

Q: comments on the quarter please?

Q: I'm considering cutting a loser to invest in something new that has some growth. SIS, PBH, and TOY have been poor performers for me for a while now and have been dragging down my returns. If I thought the issues were temporary for all 3 of them I would hold and wait it out but I've found each of them has been less than impressive. SIS with the equity raises and mgmt that I'm losing faith in, PBH with a million excuses as to why each quarter has negative surprises (weather, swine flu, minimum wage,etc), and TOY with disappointing numbers that seem to be getting worse with no real catalyst to get back to growth (Toysrus overhang, diminishing sales in their top sellers that are getting stale, no replacement "home run" product to turn things around. These 3 seem to no longer be growth stocks, do you think I should cut any of the three or give them some more time?

Q: I own the above companies with the following corresponding weighting:
2.6%;1.3%;2.2%;2.5%;2.7%;2.2%. I am looking at the possibility of doing some consolidating - what are your thoughts on consolidating? If I consolidate - what 1 or possibly 2 companies would you eliminate and what 1 or 2 companies would you add to?
Use as many of my questions as you need and thanks for your excellent service.

All have done very well for me SHOP up 568%, CCL,B up 180% ,SIS up 159%,MG up 112% and the rest all up between 11 and 42%.So my question is do I keep them all? Sell some ? Any suggestions appreciated.Paul

I am buy & hold investor. With quarterly results out for couple of mentioned companies, do you think any of these stocks don't fit in that category anymore irrespective of sector or there are better ones ?

Thanks

Q: Savaria has continued to drop in price over the past few months. What do you see as the outlook for this stock, is it time to sell or is there upside over the next year? Thanks, Anne.

Q: With today's announcement of a replacment of the CFO at SIS a few days before earnings, is this a red flag as to results. Thanks

Q: Do you know why SIS has been so weak lately? Thanks

Q: When does Savaria report? What are the expectations?

Q: if you wanted to increase the weight in each of three stock SJ,SIS, KXS which would you top first, second and third?
Thanks

Q: Hello,

Time to deploy some cash. Do I add to AQN ( up 20% on existing position) or initiate a position is SIS. Looking at 2 year time frame, not worried about diversification, just relative upside.
Thanks

Q: SIS closed the bought deal of 5m shs @$14.15today & it closed up 0.40 to $13.43.Is it time to add on to my 3.5% position(p/p $17.28)Thanks for u usual great services & views

Q: Good afternoon Peter, Ryan and others in 5i
Right now my wife's TFSA is down 20%, trailing 12 months return. In her account, she has BCE 11.19%, ENGH 26.04%, NFI 15.53%, SIS 9.41%, TOY 32.49% and MU 4.71%. TOY is down over 9%. And ENGH, NFI and SIS have all dropped from 33% to 81% from their highs. But she bought these three stocks early. As a result, unlike TOY, they are still in positive positions (unrealized gains). She thinks that in TFSA there should not be any stocks going down so much for quite some time. She is thinking of selling or trimming some of them. What is your option on these stocks? Which stocks should she trim or sell? We are seniors at age of 67 and 69, and we don't need to take money out of TFSA for a long time. Could you recommend a few U.S. and Canadian solid growth stocks for her TFSA? We do need to have some consumer discretionary stocks. Could you also suggest Canadian and U.S. stocks in this sector? Maybe three each?
Thank you very much for your excellent advice all eight years since we jointed 5i.
Jim

Q: What is Savaria up to this morning? Can you explain what they are now offering? It seems similar to another announcement that aggravated investors in the past few weeks but with a better price. Also, was the guidance okay?

Q: Good morning 5i Team

This is a general question about secondary share offerings like the one issued by Savaria recently. In coming up with the offering price, is it typically based on a fundamental analysis of the corporations value or is it just a negotiated discount to the current market price?

Thanks as always.
Peter
