Investment Q&A

Q: I own the above companies in my RIF account and want to make an “In Kind” trancfer to my TFSA as well as to my unregistered account. Which one or two do you see as having the best growth possibilities for the TFSA and which one or two would be most appropriate for my unregistered account?
Your advice is always appreciated - RAM

Q: After being a laggard for most of 2016 &2017, Sylogist shares finally picked some momentum after release of last quarterly results in December, probably due to renewed optimism about company's outlook for 2018 and beyond. However, market interest seems to be fading out as reflected in share price falling back to $9.50-9.75 level (below where it started last year). I do understand that no analyst covers the co. and stock has low liquidity. Over past 4-5 years, since we started investing in the company, it has produced decent returns for us including respectable dividend growth each year, but I am wondering if it's time to lighten up (6-7% of portfolio) and deploy funds elsewhere. Unless, of course, if there is a compelling reason/potential to hold. Thanks

Q: Listed above are the stocks i currently have in my TFSA Would you suggest selling any of those listed and what would you suggest adding for 2018? All are approximately equal weight in my portfolio?
Thks for all that you do

Q: I would like to add one of the above companies to my TFSA . Could you please rank them for me. Thanks. Ernie

Q: Hello Peter and team:
SYZ has pulled back quite a bit in the last few trading days. Any reason why? Is it still a buy here? Thanks.

Q: Hi Peter & Team,
SYZ is doing so good, is time to sell or trim ? Your comment is highly appreciated.
Thanks as always,
Tak

Q: Hey, thanks for your great service.
I'm looking for few companies that I can invest on tsx venture. Any upcoming companies that are doing very well?

Q: Why would Sylogist not graduate to the TSE in order to get better exposure? And would you consider syz in the saas area as CSU, DSG and Kinaxis. And would they rank last and would they be an attractive takeover target by a bigger company.

Q: I am a holder of SYZ, IMHO they have the worst website for shareholders I have ever come across. The only good thing is a link to Sedar. Why not have a list of press releases at a minimum for easy div. date reference. Not acceptable for any Co. never mind it's a computer Co.
If you agree you would have more clout with SYZ.
Please contact them.

Q: have a little money since I sold TOY do not have above stocks. Following your balanced portfolio. Should I buy 1 rebuy TOY or hold? Also what are the future prospects of SHOP

Q: When is SYZ reporting & expectations?Thanks for u usual great services & views

Q: Are there any other names on your radar currently that might resemble a young SYZ or SIS ? Thanx Robbie

Q: SYZ has been a long time winner for me. What are some of the reasons no analysts follow this stock while there are a lot of " dogs " out there that are being followed ? Thanx Robbie

Q: Hi, Any comments on the today's NR for dividend increase and 2018 outlook ? Is it time to add to our 5% position ? Thanks

Q: These four losing stocks of low weighing in my portfolio. Please advise if they are worth holding for recovery. CXI, SYZ and KBL are thinly traded. Thank you.
Bill

Q: Do you have a small cap replacement suggestion for DRT in a TFSA ? Thank you

Q: SYZ finally spent some of their money on an acquisition a couple of weeks ago and the stock ticked up a bit. What will it take to really move the stock price. I have a full position and am content waiting but sometimes it's a very slow wait.

Q: Hi, Our investment portfolios across family are made up of a combination most companies from Balanced Portfolio, some from Income portfolio and a few others like CM(10%- reasons of affiliation), TD (3.5%), CWB(1.5%), JWEL(1.5%), RPI.un(2.5%). Objective is Mostly growth and income.
I am grateful to 5i research team for recommending companies like CSU,PBH,TOY,SIS, KWH.un and CCL.b and providing timely and consistent updates, resulting in substantial gains. Many of these successful companies would have escaped my attention, if not for your valuable advice.

My question is about a few stocks, listed in subject line, which, during my YTD review, continue to show decline in value (although we have in built gains in all of these). Except SYZ and ENB others are inside RRSP's. Does it make sense to liquidate a part of these holdings and deploy capital elsewhere ? Total value of above is about 15% of my portfolio with SYZ being the largest, 6% and GUD being the smallest,1%.

Thanks again for the excellent service !!

Q: Hi, Sylogist, after a long time made an acquisition, as per following NR,this morning. Any comments !! Should it help stock price recover, in time ? Thanks
