Q: hello 5i:
We recently sold U: 50% gain and a bit too high valuation for us. To quote Peter: we would reduce very expensive growth stock exposure. Current tech holdings are CSU, PANW, AVGO, OTEX, TOI and DND; the latter 2 being about 1% positions. We would like to replace U with something "less" exciting and are considering TCS, APPS and QCOM as you seem to favour these stocks (like others, I read the questions/answers daily). TCS is very appealing as it looks to have a moat within the health care sector, but we also own VEEV and WELL. Is there too much overlap here? APPS is a volatile trader and not really in our wheelhouse, but is of interest. Can you make a suggestion as to how you'd replace U?
thanks

Q: Hi Guys
knowing that its the price you pay for a stock, that in the end determines how much money you make. Just curious why you wouldn't have picked up this stock in January of 2017 when it was trading at around $9.00 dollars, with a P/S of around 1.8x and a P/E of around 27x
Looking at it trading today at $55 with a forward P/E around 190x it seems it will take along time to grow into its price, and if it doesn't the risk on the downside could be a disaster. I know in 2000 there were a lot of stocks that never did grow into their pricing.
Thanks ! Gord

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan, and Team,

Quite a positive 5i report on TCS. Would you be OK with either a full switch or a partial switch from KXS (which has seemed to have 'stalled' somewhat) to TCS, which has a better one-year chart? I realize that KXS is a much larger company. I do like the fact that TCS pays a dividend (albeit a small one). What would you aim for as a good entry price for TCS, or would you just enter a market order? Thanks in advance for your continued help and advice.

Q: Your report on TCS states that KXS and DSG are close competitors. I hold both of the latter would buying TCS make sense. How do you see the growth of each in the next few years?
Thank You
Peter

Q: Good morning,

I have a basket of tech stocks that I am looking to add a few names too. Those already held include CSU, KXS, LSPD, ENGH, CTS, DND, and REAL. What stocks of the ones listed would you add to today for long-term hold? Thanks.

Q: Your thoughts on one of these 4 companies for a long term hold over 5 years. Tecsys showed the highest 5 years return among the 4. Do you think that it still has a long way up?
Any other companies in similar fields that you would prefer over these 4 names.
Thank you!

Q: Current assessment of these two stocks. Mdf had a big jump today on the Aldi News. Would you recommend either of these 2 at current price.

For XBC the stock has run up a fair bit. Would you recommend a buy here or wait for a pullback
