Q: 7:19 AM 7/8/2022
Our retirement income portfolios are heavily weighted to higher dividend companies : banks, utilities, pipelines, telecoms, BIP and BEP, and CNR.
We are considering adding one or more of the following companies: PKI, EIF, NWC, SLF, TRP.
We would expect them to provide reliable increasing dividends plus some ongoing share price growth over the years.
Could you please indicate what order you would purchase them and maybe a comment or two on each for a very long term hold.
Thanking you.......... Paul W K.

Q: Thanks to 5i I have held Kinaxis for many years and even with the current drop in price am still up 320% on it in my TFSA. I am considering selling and replacing it with Shopify which I already have a very small position in at much higher prices. Would you consider this to be a logical move if you were in my position ? Alternatively would you recommend any other stocks with potentially outsize returns over time that you currently like better. All proceeds will be going to my family eventually so time frame is not an issue for me.

Q: Jennifer Gauthier in the Globe presented an article indicating that some of the key drivers of consumer price growth are declining. ie. oil (WTI) drops below $100, wholesale gas price drops 7%, lumber prices are a fraction of their pandemic peak, freight rates on major shipping routes have fallen 40% since September 2021 but remain a lot higher than pre-pandemic rates.

By contrast, Eric Lascelles Chief Econ. At RBC Global Asset Mgmnt. is quoted as saying that inflation has spread to a wide range of products rather than just a few key drivers and he believes that inflation has not yet peaked.

I have a few questions after reading it.

Do you agree with these assessments?

I suppose the way to know that inflation has peaked is to see it drop. Would it be unlikely to rise soon after once the market signals it’s peaked?

At the peak, do you see any sectors rising quicker than others?

Do GIC rates quickly start coming down once the peak is signaled?

Q: Hi all,
I feel right now like playing Sleeping Beauty. To sit tight on my choices, ignore market moves and wake up in few months. Mind you I already sold some stocks for profit or loss, but no rush to buy back. Breathe, enjoy summer, friends and family. All be well. Waiting for the Prince, Denise.

Q: Based on your answer over a year ago...has anything changed for better for worse in your view on this particular stock addressing the points you came up with previously and looking at trending financial metrics for URC? Would it be a buy here at these levels, hold or sell? How do you feel about the uranium market going forward, the effect of the war and sanctions on Russia on the uranium market?

5I RESEARCH ANSWER:
There is not much to add really. It still has no revenue, losses and negative cash flow. It had $11M cash as of its last report. We have no real concerns with its royalty portfolio, but the stock has moved with the sector as opposed to any specific company news. We think the outlook is decent but would see no need to add to a naturally growing position. Insiders are 4%. Uranium Energy is 19.5%. We think management is quite decent overall.
