Q: Which 3 Canadian growth stocks do the 5i Team has most conviction at this time for a TFSA account. Please provide short reasoning. - Thanks!

Q: Hi 5i Team,
Pls comment on Northland Power quarterly earning report and future prospects.
Very surprised they cut the annual dividend to 0.72 from 1.20.

I own this stock in my income portfolio,
Would you hold or sell?

Thanks for your advice.

Q: The above stocks make up 80.4% of my holdings. Goog and BN @7% each. The next 5 @ 4% each and the rest at or close to 3% each. For a 10 year horizon, with risk/reward in mind, where would you invest if you had 10% of the portfolio in dry powder- new cash. Any you would sell? Note, I have been trimming CLS, VRT and NBIS to control AI exposure.

Thanks again for all the insights - love the service you provide.

Q: Why is this performing so poorly lately? I’m down 20% and am tempted to sell it because crypto and the market are ripping higher today and Galaxy is down!

Q: I've been amused by the latest Tesla news in regard to the new pay for musk. Correct me if I'm wrong but the latest earnings for Tesla is around a 100 billion dollars. If the pay for musk goes into effect that would leave Tesla in a deficit of approximately 900 billion dollars. Now I know there is more to this than meets the eye, so could you please explain how Tesla intends to square this circle.

Q: Is this company profitable? Is it expensive? Do you see it as a hold, buy, or sell?
Thank you

Q: Thoughts on CCO today? Valuation, growth, etc?

Q: Please update your opinion on CRCL (last Q was Nov 4) based on today's price of $98. Quite a fall from the peak and JP Morgan among others have recently downgraded with targets in the $90's. I have been waiting for an entry point and would respectfully ask that you explain why it continues to fall, how low you think it could go based on news, fundamentals and technical support and what your strategy would be for building a full position. If you would wait, please outline a target price and what you would need to see to get involved. A cherry on top would be a two year price target, what needs to happen for that target to be achieved and a percentage chance of that happening.

Thank you very kindly for the excellent ongoing analysis.

Q: DNOW recently completed a merger, what are your thoughts about it and their medium to long term future? Thanks.

Q: Your thoughts on the latest quarter and if you had 3/4 position, would you buy more, sell or hold? Thanks!

Q: What’s your take on Baytex’s announcement of a sale of their Eagle Ford assets. As a longterm holder currently down 45% I’ve been patiently waiting for a turnaround. It has definitely been moving in the right direction for months and much speculation surrounded the need to divest American assets to be the catalyst for further recovery. Where do you see this stock over the next year or two?

Q: So further to Elmer‘s question from yesterday, can GSY pull itself out of the penalty box with great news in one quarter or is this pretty much a sit tight and wait for several quarters for reversal type story?

Q: Did ARX provide a reason as to why production guidance was lowered? Also, looking for your thoughts on the company as a long term investment. It is one of my core Nat Gas holdings along with TOU. What do you like about the company and what do you dislike about the company if there is anything to dislike. Also, would you suggest another company in its place that has better long term prospects.

Q: Just wanted to get your current views on SLF in light of last week's earnings. I note RBC's recent comments...

“SLF’s underlying EPS was higher than our estimate and consensus, but the U.S. segment had higher than expected experience losses related to Dental and stop-loss,” he said. “We do not expect material unfavourable stop-loss experience to persist into 2026, but we expect the Dental business to remain challenged throughout our forecast period; we lower our U.S. estimates.”"

I have noticed challenges with the US segment in recent quarters, so wondering if you would ADD or HOLD at current levels.

Thank you for the great service.
