Q: Dear 5i
The mean analyst recommendation in Yahoo finance is 1.8 whereas in 5i s website under market data it shows 1.22 for VRT . I assume the market data you show thru your website has more accuracy and therefore more validity . Is that a safe assumption .?Out of curiosity where does your market data come from anyways ?
Thanks

Q: can you describe the step by step process used by LMN to acquire a VSM company ? do they give existing management shares of LMN or pay them a combo of cash and stock? does LMN assume debt when adding to the VSM portfolio?. does existing management continue to have a stake in the newly acquired VSM company ? if so what percent? are there non compete clauses? does existing management have a relatively free rein in future corporate decisions? thanks Richard

Q: Hello,
My holding of Waste Connections has increased substantially in value. The stock price is slipping and there seem to be a number of concerns with debt and return on capital. Your detailed comments would be appreciated.

Are there some industrials with better future prospects? What industrials could WCN be replaced with and why would they be any better?

Thank you,
V

Q: Hello 5i Team,

Could you please suggest 20 Canadian and/or U.S. stocks for a "buy and hold" portfolio in an RRSP with average-to-above-average risk and a 5+ year timeframe.

Feel free to subtract as many credits as you see fit.

Thanks in advance for your always helpful advice!

Q: I'm split at 20% ETF and 80% stock. Going into 2024 where do you see the canadian market vs the S&P or MSCI EAFE ? The US has outperformed the other 2 in 2023 as usual but do you believe that this continues into 2024? Could you comment on the 3 and what are the chances for the Canadian and International markets to perform better than they have in the coming years?
