Investment Q&A

Q: Which would you consider the better investment? Ceridian or Paychex? Which would have the better economic moat and future growth potential in your opinion?

Q: Most of our preferreds have dropped again this week, BAM by far the most (now about half book value). BAM stock seems to be one that's widely recommended. Your thoughts and advice please.

Q: Hi, Could you please comment on the Light Speed results and outlook for next year. Lots of cash and no debt. But, company is still incurring large losses (which is not necessary a negative, with long runway of growth) Also, CC was at 5PM. If you acessed, any further details to add. Based on these results, do you feel comfortbale to start a new position or increase 1% position to 2-3%, at current levels? Thanks

Q: Hi there,
Did i miss some news with this one - up significantly on several down days.
Related to the CCL results?

Q: Hi team,

Any comments on using this ETF for long term U.S tech exposure in a non-reg account? Would you be a buyer at these levels?

Thanks

Q: we are just starting a resp and wondered if there is an Canadian ETF that is like the IWO but in Canadian funds as the moment we have just under $1000.00 in this account but it will grow over time with contributions.

Q: my brother had some shares in MKNA which is now WLLW but they have removed all shares from his account, can you tell me why this would have happened as I can't any information on why this was done ? Is it an error on the brokerage firm? The shares were removed on May 22,2019.
Thanks

Q: can you comment on their first quarter earning? If owned what % would be the maximum you would hold?
Thanks

Q: Can you please comment on LTV's current quarter. I have a small, speculative investment in the company and am wondering if they still have a chance to prove their technology or if their mounting losses will see their financial runway runout before they can become viable.

Q: In your comments you thought the year over year comparisons would start to look better in 2019 as money laundering switched focus to housing. However analysts estimates have come down from $3.00 a share 90 days ago to $1.50 for 2020.
Do you consider the estimates low or were you considering something else in your earlier response?
Thanks Mike

Q: I have been waiting for a chance to buy this on a dip, would you buy here? What are your current thoughts on this stock?

Thanks!

Q: HI 5i - Your insight on three questions please:
1. MO - Way down --- is it safe? Buy - Sell or Hold?
2. What is your best recco for a S&P 500 ETF?
3. What are your top 3 Dividend payers going forward?
Thankyou!

Q: Could you please me your opinion on their earnings release this morning? Thanks!!

Q: on April 12 you stated ISRG was one of your favourite growth companies what is your current opinion in light of the drop in share price from 582.85 to a current price of 467.66.? plus any reason for the huge drop in price? thanks Richard

Q: I have held MO for over 10 years. It's done very well for me - tripled in value plus dividends. But it's probably time to move on. Traditional tobacco product sales are declining rapidly (not a bad thing to be honest) and investments in JUUL and Cannibis are probably years away from potentially paying off. I'm comfortable with my portfolio make up except for healthcare, which i have no exposure to. I've been looking at ISRG, TMO, BSX and BDK. I'm leaning towards ISRG based on their balance sheet (lots of cash, very little debt),market position, and potential growth but it seems to be in the doghouse after an earnings miss last quarter and it looks expensive on a fwd P/E basis. That said I don't mind paying up for quality. Your thoughts on ISRG or maybe one of the other stocks I listed? Deduct as many credits as you see fit. Thanks in advance.

Q: Do you guys have any ideas for personal research on smaller cap (100 million- 500 mill) SAAS or software companies in the US? I feel as a Canadian we are so overexposed to the few tech and software companies that operate here that I need to look for better opportunities down south.

Q: Looks like interesting announcements from RHT this morning particularly the winning of new contracts and on-boarding of new patients. Your thoughts. More smoke or are these real developments.

Q: good time to add? Share price is dropping quickly. I feel like with these illiquid stocks it can be a good buying opportunity and a bit of an anomaly. Do you see anything alarming?

Q: Clarification on Stuart’s question of May 29th. Based on the 2020 reset rate of 2.64% and current 5 year GOC of 1.46% would result in dividend rate of 4.1%. At today’s price of $16.23 would result in estimated reset yield of 6.3% for next 5 years.

Q: Is there a bottom for this company ?
