Investment Q&A

Q: Thankyou for your continued confidence in CSU and Bam.A. I have held them both for many years through ups and downs, and have made a lot of money. What would be your next two favorite Canadian stocks with similar growth and risk, for a minimum 10 year hold.

Q: Hi group ITP now 20 % off the highs generated by their last quarterly report. Any idea what is going on with this stock is it a buy sell or hold
Second question if you were to buy 3 stocks in the US and 3 Canada with moderate risk/reward what would your picks be and why ?Thanks for all your help its much appreciated

Q: Top 10 stocks to add today to my TSFA (US or Can). I have Well and XBC today. Looking for growth with a 7-10 year investment horizon.

Q: I believe they're reporting after the bell today (Wednesday). The stock has had a huge run, no matter how good the results, I imagine it'll be a 'sell on the news'...maybe they can consolidate a bit in here. If you could provide your analysis of the results, please.
Thanks very much.

Q: Going through all your portfolios looking for a high(er) growth stock with a dividend >1 that I don't already own. Can you please rate the following on a scale of 1-10 (1 being low) for both growth and risk over the next 12-18 months: MG, SLF, PKI, TFI, CCL, PLC, GSY, OTEX. (I note that all but SLF are currently rated 'strong buy'.) And if you have two clear favourites in the preceding list, I would appreciate those being noted separately. Thank you.

Q: Could you please rank these financial stocks? Is there another one you would throw in there that may be better? Thanks

Q: There is a lot of talk about a shift to value stocks. What is and how do I identify a value stock and can you give some examples of current opportunities in your portfolios and generally please?

Q: Hi Peter,
What would be your today buy recommdation for fundamentally excellent companies ( canadian and US) in the small , middle and large cap categoies and have expected high growth in the near future. Appreciate ranking them by category and risk.
Thanks

Q: I've been interested in SEDG for the past couple of weeks and I don't own many stocks in this industry. Do you think now would be a good time to get in? Additionally, I'd like to avoid going beyond approximately 20 stocks in the portfolio, so adding SEDG would mean selling my position in one of the other four stocks above. Do you see greater potential in SEDG over the next 3-5 years? Or would it be better to build on the positions I already have?

Thanks

Q: From a value/ risk perspective what are your thoughts on the following rebalancing.
Move GSY from 4.65% of the total equity to 3%.
Then move ECN from 1% to 2.7%.
ECN is a recently initiated position.
Basically a partial switch.

Q: On a scale of 1-10, please rate the following stocks for both growth and risk over the next year (1 being low, 10 being high): GSY, SIS, BAM, TRI, SLF, TFII. If only one could be owned, which would you choose today? Thank you.

Q: First of all, thank you for your amazing work. Cannot express how helpful my 5i subscription has been. Life-changing in all honesty.

My positions in LSPD (17.3%) and GSY (12.7%) have gotten a little out of hand. I was fortunate to pick them up near their lows in April. I've already trimmed both a couple of times, but I am really struggling to sell more given the positive outlook 5i has of both for the future. I've seen similar questions asked about trimming and selling positions with phenomenal growth and seen your responses suggesting to trim positions to reasonable weightings. I thought I might have an easier time doing so if you suggested some positions to add to or some new ones viewed as favourably as LSPD and GSY.

I have the following companies in a TFSA and have included the weightings only of positions I think might warrant a second look. While I anticipate a comment about weightings needing to be personal what would YOU suggest as the highest weighting for LSPD and GSY? And, again, please suggest some positions to add to or new ones.

Feel free to take question credits as you see fit.

Thank you again

Q: Hi 5i: I am presently underweight financials ( TD - 6% ). Which of these would you add BNS, SLF or GSY? Would you add a combination of all? What is the market weight for financials and would now be a suitable time to add?

Thank you for my success!

Tom

Q: I have held LSPD and GSY for quite a while now in an RRSP and RESP respectively with still 10 plus year timelines on those portfolios. I purchased LSPD at about $33 (it's now around $90) and GSY at about $50 (it's over $100 now) and I have taken some profits out along the way. Do you see these two continuing to do really well? I'm wondering if you would recommend just holding onto my remaining shares for the foreseeable future (say another 1-3 years) or would it make sense to sell while ahead and put that money in something with a bit more growth potential? THX, Jeff

Q: Hi, could you please provide a list of your highest conviction Canadian growth stocks. Any sector will do but the stocks you feel most certain will deliver good growth in most market environments. Not necessarily looking to blow the lights out, steady growth will do. Thanks.

Q: Gsy has had a nice run and at 52 week high but the market cap is still only $1 Billion. From a valuation have the underlying revenue / earnings kept up to share price appreciation and do you see this as a good growth story over the next 3-5 years

Q: These two companies appear regularly when you mention companies that are "cheap" with good growth prospects. Of the two, which is "cheaper" and which would you expect to have more stock price appreciation in the next 12-24 months?

Also, GSY is up 10% today - is that due to their sale of Paybright to Affirm? Seems overdone if so...

Q: Your answer to Costa about how to handle GoEasy (or any stock) after a double or triple is one of the reasons why I subscribe to 5i. Thanks for your clarity.

Q: I was wandering if you buy a stock and it has gone up double or even tripled
in value is it better to take out the initial investment and put it elsewhere or keep all the shares and see how far it can go ….which is more advantages in growing your portfolio
example GSY I bought it in the $ 30 range.

Thanks

Q: Go Easy finally broke 100$ on their announcement about the sale of PayBright and Affirm holdings. This seems very positive. Historically it has been noted they have been valued lower due to the business segment they operate in. Do you see this announcement as reducing perception of the company and will allow it to trade at higher multiples? BMO Investorline Value Analyzer product shows close to 90% upside from here is possible.
