Investment Q&A

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

Q: What handful of small to mid cap companies do you see as having home run/Palantir type potential? I don’t care what exchange the companies are listed on. I’m willing to be patient and realize your picks are purely speculation.
Thanks

Q: I hold small (less than 1%) positions in VNP and GRID. I would like to beef up the size of my holdings or sell and redistribute the funds into other positions. Would you put more money into VNP and GRID, combine the two into one holding of either VNP or GRID, or reallocate the funds. Thank you for your help with this.

Q: I am down on these two companies in my TFSA, and am thinking of selling in favor of another Canadian growth company. I already own ELVA, FTG, GRID, KITS, PNG, VNP and ZDC. Which would you add to, or do you suggest adding another growth company.

Q: I am a conservative dividend investor. However I have about 3% of my investments in high risk high reward stocks all in a TFSA account. I have made adjustments to this account and am thinking of adding one or all of the listed stocks. Propel, Kneat, Lumine and 5N Plus. In what order would you purchase the 4 listed stocks and do you have any recommendations that you would purchase before these 4 for a high risk reward account.

Q: The way things look right now, it is difficult to see how energy and materials (mining) won’t play a major role in keeping Canada afloat. It seems we have things the world needs/wants if we can get over our distaste for being prosperous. I’m wondering if you can suggest some “pick and shovel” plays in the space generally?

Q: Hi 5I. Which of these 2 has the highest probability of success. What is the competitive advantage of each? What is the guidance on forward p/e of each? In VNP's case, which offering is their strong suit - Semiconductors or Performance Materials?

I love 5I. Have been an extremely happy subscriber for going on 12 years and it irks me when someone voices some petty grief. For investment advice for an individual direct investor, there is no better value than 5I.
