Q: Hi team,
I know this is a difficult, and perhaps speculative question; but what would be your top couple picks today for a growth stock that is capable and in your view, likely, to replicate the long term stellar performance of a stock such as CSU? I am looking for a long term, steady eddy growth that is capable of over years, producing that (000's of % return that CSU for example has done. Would you consider KXS a junior CSU? Or perhaps something such as pho? Give me your best, educated couple picks. Thanks,
Shane

Q: Hi all at 5i, I have about 45k invested with only 5k in cash. I own all of the above names and was wondering if you were to free up some cash which of these stocks would you trim. If you think 5k in cash is enough, do you think any of these names would be good to trade for another name? Do you have any concerns over any of these names at this moment in time.

Feel free to deduct as many points as necessary.

Thanks,
Dan

Q: hi
Purely on a stock by stock basis, based on the short term possible performance of the stock, if you had to sell some of these stocks, which would (first 5) you sell and in what order? ( I like all of them but I want to reduce my leverage ) Do not consider them as a portfolio as I have other stocks in registered accounts. Reducing across all of them would not be efficient for the size of my account.
thank you

Q: Hi,
Thanks for the past tips to get into Savaria, I’m up 70% on it right now. They seem to have a hard time breaking through $17. Do they have anything solid in the works that you think will push it higher with support or do you think the best part of this ride is over? I haven’t held it long and don’t need the cash for anything, but would like to see continued solid returns. I know the returns here aren’t typical, but do you see somewhere else to better send the money or is it a hold for a while still?

Thanks

Q: Hi 5i Team

I am starting a portfolio for my 20 year daughter and am looking for a suggestion for her first stock. She will not be needing the money for many years so it is a long term hold for her TSFA. I am open to Canadian and foreign stocks. What would you suggest?

Thanks

Q: I have a question about CGI, which I've held since 2013, so I've done very well with them, but they don't have a dividend policy, so I'm feeling that the capital gain that I have is being lazy and not working for me without any divvy income to offset. If I was going to sell half, what would you suggest would be a good 3 to 5 year replacement to consider? I tend to favour medium to large caps, and mostly dividend payers. I also have Open Text and Syzlogist as other tech holdings, in a fairly diversified portfolio that includes international and US etf's. I currently do not have any resource/energy (I was thinking Vermillion) or consumer (I was thinking Loblaws or Metro, Dollarama looks expensive still)holdings.

thank you,
