Investment Q&A

Q: Hi 5i,
I'm trying to put together a materials allocation for my portfolio that pay a dividend. These are the companies I have come up with that pay a stable dividend and appear to not have too much related business. Is more diversification needed and can you make recommendations. Also is there any better replacements for these companies I would like to have at least a two percent dividend. Thanks!

Q: Hi 5i,
I hold NFI in a reg'd account where I endeavour to buy and hold. A while ago it was up nicely but then lost all its gains and more when the revised guidance came out. Now, with its recent soft recovery and dividends accounted for it's back in black, slightly.
I'm not optimistic about NFI's next couple of years and would like to see better capital gain and dividend income from the funds currently in NFI, and I'm considering WJX as a replacement. What do you think of this move and, if not WJX, can you suggest another one or two names for me to consider?
Much the same circumstances and question regarding AQN, which I think is somewhat stale these days and may be for a few years to come. I'm considering CPX as a replacement and would appreciate your opinion on that move, and your suggestions of one or two other than CPX if you think leaving AQN behind is wise but CPX might not be the answer.
Thanks and please deduct accordingly.

Q: Hi 5i,
I know you haven’t been big fans of BLDP and neither have I. I don’t know if it ever made any money. However, in the past few weeks it has announced a couple of development partnerships and a fuel cell deal to power a Talgo passenger train in Spain on a trial next year with expected commercialization in 2023. Is it too early to climb aboard? The stock price seems to be gaining a bit of traction lately as well.
Thanks again.

Q: Why has MTL not been as as strong as other companies in the sector?
where the latest results that bad?
If you had a choice would you prefer MTL over MCR for an energy play.
With the energy sector so hot,those stocks have to benefit some day.dont you think so?
What are the insider owner ships in MTL and MCR?

Q: Can you provide comments on the Company's annual report?
Also the Company's CEO has repeatedly stated (multiple press releases reference this) that the Company will be at a revenue run rate of $2 million per month by the end of the year. If the Company were to achieve this, what is implied share price based on what competitors are trading at? Based on my estimates of $24m of annual revenue and comparables trading at 25x revenue this would imply a share price potential of over $3. It is currently just over $1.

Q: If I purchased company "A" at $40.00 with a 6% Yield.
Since then, company "A" has gone to $60.00 and the Yield looks close but frankly I have forgotten.
Is the current indicated Yield based on the Share or on the Price ?

Q: We have a balanced portfolio with a growth tilt. Current Industrial sector stocks held and their percentage in total portfolio are:
CAE-1.7%, WSP-4.9%, AC-1.9%, XBC-1.3%, XYL-1.9%, MRS-0.3% and etf CWW-2.5%.
Have some cash to add and have been looking at ATA or TFII or topping up one or more existing holdings. Dividend not necessary. Would appreciate your thoughts and/or alternative suggestions.
Many thanks as always.

Q: Good Day 5I team: Can you account for the recent and for me quite dramatic decline?All the best and thanks Larry

Q: Any thoughts on quis at this time would be appreciated. It seems to be having trouble getting any traction. Analysts are still very positive on its potential but in comparison to my other tech stocks (I'm over weight tech and its the lagard) i also hold softchoice. my hesitation to part with it is fomo as the lowest of the analyst estimated is almost a double. Your thoughts?

Q: Hi, Please comment on Richards Packaging earnings release, Does it inspire more confidence in owning the stock ? Thank You

Q: Hi 5i,

With the recent pull back do you consider TWLO current price ~$280 a good entry point? Do you still like the prospects (i.e.) growth, or is this a falling knife? Will Rising Interest Rates put further pressure on the valuation?

Q: Hi,

Despite chip shortages, I'm considering taking my first position in a vehicle manufacturer. I'm specifically interested first in LCID and second in F. While I expect F to have some very experienced managers/executives/board members, what can you tell me of the people directing LCID? Lots of previous experience and are they up for the task?

Q: Do you have any investment ideas in the area of hearing assistance. The wearing of air pods appears to be ubiquitous and will accelerate the demand. Looking for a few company ideas to tuck away in my RRSP. Besides the chip companies are there any more direct way to play what I think is going to be a secular long term play. US Europe or Canada.

Thanks for all you do!
