Q: I am currently holding BN, GSY, JPM, and RY in the financials sector and am considering selling GSY and buying BRK.B. I've held GSY for a number of years so have had a nice gain but wonder if BRK.B wouldn't be a more consistent mover?
Thank you

Q: Hi there. A question regarding Go Easy GSY. We have been fortunate to be in a profit position above 30% in this company. With 6 recent revisions to the downside and a 6 month performance of -1.7 versus the 10.51% in SPTSX would you hold into earnings considering this could be quite a volatile week? or take some profit? We hold a sizable amount in our TFSA so capital gains is a non-issue. Thanks!

Q: Hi team;
Any reason for the weakness in Canadian names today ? Namely the mentioned names for example, especially Gsy? Gsy down 10% in 2 days seems a bit drastic. Is there concern here or a bit the dip opportunity?

Thanks ,
Shane

Q: Greetings 5i team,
I hold these seven companies in my TFSA in roughly equal amounts. I would like to add WELL to my TFSA. Would it be wise to shave a bit from all of the companies listed in order to do so?
Or, do you see a better solution to achieve this (ie. SELL one / two of the other positions in favour of WELL)?
Thank you as always.

Q: Simply Wall Street has GSY undervalued by 49.4% with earnings forecast to grow by 17.09% per year. Whereas they have PRL overvalued by 54.4% with earnings forecast to grow by 38.3% per year. They also have GLXY at 78.9% undervalued and earnings forecast to grow by 14.66% per year ......First question. Do you concur with these numbers ? Second question. Which one do you prefer and why ? Also please rank from first choice to third choice ......Thanks for your terrific service Garth ......

Q: Just a comment. Quite some time ago GSY was trading around $90 and issued a huge number of shares significantly under 90. The deal sold out plus the over allotment. The market price dropped of course on high volume. I realized that the firm buying the shares were fully expecting that the value of GSY hence the share price would go well beyond $90.
I apply the same thoughts to PRL

Q: Hello, from your growth portfolio, what would be your current ranking in order of purchase please?
Read Answer Asked by Liliane on September 30, 2024
Q: Hi Team,
Prior to the CEO departure announcement in early July GSY was in a nice uptrend. Since then the stock has struggled gaining any ground; even though last earnings were record as usual and outlook looks fantastic. Do you see the CEO leaving and lack of replacement thus far as the main overhang in the stock performance recently? Any rumors swirling about who might be available to take the job?

Q: Hi 5i team,

What would be your current 5 best (highest conviction) buys in each of the following categories please.
1. small cap
2. mid cap
Hold target is 3-10 years or longer.
I prefer these categories as they seem to have the most torque (in the right environment) albeit also the most risk.


Cheers,
Steve
