Investment Q&A

Q: Sorry for resubmitting the same question again. It seems that I am doing something wrong. Just realized that the name of the Company didn't appear on my last submission, so I am putting the company name and the symbol in the text, (Capstone Mining CSE.PR.A). My original question was sent two days ago, and probably did the same mistake.

I am in dilemma in choosing between the offer to convert series A to a fixed reset for five years at 3.271%, to convert to the floating rate preferred, initial quarterly rate 3.204% or to just take my losses and sell. What would you suggest, how safe is the dividends on this prefered now it is in the hands of the new company that bought Capstone and considering that the rate of return of over 6% based on current price? What would be a good replacement if income requirement isn't important and would rather have some growth and less dividend?

Thanks.

Q: I own these 4 stocks in my TFSA account in which SIS is 2% holding overall all accounts and the other 3 are 1% overall. From reading the questions that have been asked on theses 4 stocks , you feel that DRT is a hold as well as GUD? I would like to increase my holdings so do think that it would be best to add to PLI and SIS at this time and not GUD or DRT?

Thanks

Q: Hi, I'm replacing Prism Medical. What are your top 3 choices in this sector for income?

Would you consider AD as a health stock? It seems to have an interest in the medical field in Canada and the US.

Thanks

Q: Thanks for the answer to the PM takeover. Thanks again for having suggested PM in the first place. Does that mean SIS is now more vulnerable to a takeover? Thanks again. Henry's

Q: Portfolio weighting a aside. For a young investor if you were topping up two of these, which two would you choose? Cheers

Q: Could you please give me a list of your favourite insider owned companies presently? A percentage of insider ownership and a brief reasoning as to why you are choosing the company/companies over other possibilities. If there is one that could be considered a full position purchase at this time or would you ease into all the names. Thank you

Q: Do you think that Enghouse has had it's run? Is it time to sell and replace it with SIS? Thank You.

Q: Hello 5i team,
I am currently up 48% on CXI and am contemplating switching to Savaria (SIS). This would be within my TFSA. I am overweight financials (as most Canadians probably are..) and currently underweight industrials.
Would you endorse such a move; are there any "red flags" you would see to such a switch? Any thoughts or comments would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
Mike

Q: Given your answer to Darren, does it mean if you've purchased SIS above $7.95, you've overpaid?

Q: I am using your Balanced Equity Model Portfolio. I missed out on getting into Savaria and keep watching it go up. Should I buy in now or wait?

Q: Hello, I have been reading your comments on Savaria Corp with interset, for a few months and decided to initiate a small position this week. Companies supporting aging demographics should continue to do well, but SIS is still fairly small cap and valuation appears rich. Stock also had a decent run lately, so it could tread water for a while. I would rather wait a few more quarters, before adding at today's price. What are your thoughts ? Thanks

Q: Savaria is dropping almost 4% at mid-day and I am wondering if the 5i team considers this to be the "normal" volatility for this type of small-cap investment?

Or, is there news today that would explain the price movement?

Looking forward to your informative insights!

Q: Would prism be a logical acquisition for savaria? How complementary are they?

Q: Savaria is really moving up again today. Currently up 6.63% with above average volume. Any idea what is causing this?

Q: Out of your fav cdn growth stocks, how would you rank their relative risk (from lower to higher)

Q: Any comments regarding the Savaria equity raise?
Thanks.

Q: Dear Gentlemen,
I want to add 2.5% from 10.5% to 13% in the Industrial sector.
At the moment I have the following companies in different accounts
BDI 0.5% (-75%)
MDA 2.4% (-3%)
ATA 1.1% (-20%)
STN 2.7% (-1.3%)
WSP 3.8% (+13.6%)
adding on one or two on these companies or add a new one SIS ?
Your recommendations ?
Thanks
Best Regards

Q: Good morning ... obviously both of these stocks have had a nice run up since their recommendation by your team Peter ... I think Agnico will have a negative impact with interest rates , does this apply to SIS also ?? Should I take some profit off the table??TY.

Q: In light of your updated report on gamehost would a switch make sense to savaria. I usually try to replace a stock at or around the same price my thinking being that if sis has the potential to move up $2.00 faster than gamehost then I do not risk more money on a small cap stock and can recoup my $2.00 loss on gamehost faster with owning savaria.Does this strategy make any sense? I get they are completely different sectors.

Q: Love the company and the demographic space that it targets. Long time holder so I have done very well. Found the name through 5i, so "thank-you". My only concern, does the large increase in share count over the last 3 or 4 years worry you at all? Do you feel the increase is being utilized correctly?

Regards,

Robert
