Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Believe it or not one of the key benefits of 5i is your amazing growth ideas in the US market. Although SHOP, LSPD, CSU have given me excellent returns to date your choices in the US market like AYX, TEAM, etc have been outstanding.

So my question today is, have you uncovered any other promising US gems that are growth oriented a la TEAM and AYX ,recently, that might not have been mentioned on this Q&A section as of yet.

If yes, Please share and thank you.

Q: I currently own both of the above securities in my RRSP account in equal weights. I want to sell one of them. I am leaning towards selling ENB because it will reduce 1 company risk, but on the other hand there probably would be more upside to ENB. The funds will be used to buy a growthier name in TECH. Which would you sell?
Still have 6 years before needing any funds from the RRSP

Q: Hi 5iTeam,
Cramer on CNBC's Mad Money mentioned a number of cloud stocks i.e. Splunk, Alteryx, Twilio, etc....that are not your household names for cloud stocks. As far as I can see, none of the above stocks mentioned in Cramer's piece are in SKYY's (cloud stocks etf) holdings. Just wondering if you are aware of an etf that are focused on the lesser known cloud stocks.
Cheers,

Q: If we are headed to zero / negative interest rates, I am thinking of playing this thesis by purchasing XLB to capture the capital gain on the interest rate reduction and XGD should do well in a low / negative rate environment. The balance of the portfolio is VBAL and XEG. What do you think? Thank you

Q: Hi team,

PA recommends to reduce my technology exposure which is at 38%. Only problem is I am unsure which tickers to get rid of, like them all.

In my RRSP; OTEX at 4% and XAW at 21% not a direct tech exposure but does hold plenty of tech, just not sure how much.

LIRA: SHOP at 6.5%( recently chopped it from 9% to 5%), LSPD 5%, KXS 3%, QST 2.2%,

TSFA: CUSat 5%

Which one would you pull the plug on?

Tks

Q: We just recently were switched from a fund we had been invested since 2002 into this fund in one our RIF accounts, we had to switch or sell. The reason given was to lower the MER which is still a hefty 1.2% in our case the amounts to $1090.92 per year and rising if the fund goes up in value as we have always reinvested the monthly income the current yield is 2.09%.
The fund has been in a trading range since inception from the information I can gather at TD.
My thought is to sell and distribute the money to the either the Conservative or Balanced ETF portfolios in the newsletter which both have higher yields.
I'm not sure what the total MER would be for the ETF portfolios do you have that number available?
Downside is it would double the number of investments in this account to many to follow.
Do you know of other one stop ETF's that are worth consideration as we would like to keep the funds in a balanced investment, we would not intend to use this money for 5 yrs and reinvest any income in the fund.
