Investment Q&A

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

Q: Hello 5i,
I am considering to let go of Ford and Magna as I don't see an EV catalyst for Ford and I am not sure about Magna since the Apple car rumour has disappeared !!!!
If I was to sell both, I like to add to one of the other tech companies ( listed above). On an evaluation basis which one is cheaper and that it has the forward momentum to excel in terms of their existing products and AI?
Thanks
Carlo

Q: Hello, with respect to David's suggestion for 5i initiating a US growth portfolio - If I remember correctly, Peter started a Long/Short USD Equity fund 1-2 years ago. With disclosure " Not a solicitation ", may be you could direct us to a place/contact, where more information could be obtained about this USD Fund offer - Eligibility, minimum, mandate, performance and fees etc.

Thank You

Q: Your recent inclusion of the stock to the growth model tweaked my interest. The company was unknown to me. A q and a search showed that you have been positive on this company for a while. I checked out the charts. A two year chart shows a nice saucer and handle (consolidation) formation (though the handle a bit extended) through 2022 and mid 2023 and then the breakout. In July/August price jumps from, in round numbers, $27 to $37. October sees a 20% sell off but then there is a quick rebound back to the 37ish level (very positive). My question is, are you aware of any fundamental reason for the price increase in July/August? I have not been able, through my limited resources, to find one.
Thank you
Neil

Q: In my open (unregistered) account, I currently own VGRO and am looking to invest some funds in ETFs . What is the difference between ZLU and ZLU.U? How would your rate the above ETFs for growth over the next 5 years? Do these ETFs hold similar investments (stocks, bonds, etc)? If I invested in 2 ETFs, which ETFs would be complimentary? Can you suggest similar ETFs with better growth potential in the next 5 years? Thank you

Q: Hi I am thinking it's time to sell BNS, would it be better to choose another bank or deploy funds to another sector to gain some growth & dividends for a long term holding? Suggestions on other stocks please.

Q: I own a couple of banks, SLF and MA in my financial allocation. Thinking of adding GSY or BN. I know there different in size, but GSY probably offers more growth.

Would you be comfortable adding GSY with a 3-5 year time commitment, or is BN the better choice?

Q: My question yesterday did not seem to go through as it did not show up in "My Questions".
In reading your newsletter "What Investments to hold in your TFSA or RRIF" - I hold the above 4 ETF's in my TFSA and was wondering if they should be in this account?
I interpret your information as they should not be in an TFSA.
Thanks

Q: Hi, my question is which etf to buy in the Sprott precious metal group? I’m selling my bullion and buying a etf. I can buy gold, gold and silver, platinum and palladium or uranium.
My plan was to just buy gold ( phys), but I see I have other choices. What would be your suggestion for a 4-5 minimum year hold?
Thanks

Q: Hello 5i advisors, these are the 5 US stocks causing me pain this year; i feel that all are basically good companies with room to run; (DEA, of course a Reit), I know that SHLS has received an inadequate supply and that they are litigating about that, and that they swung to a loss on last earnings; I don't know how large that issue is in terms of their revenues, profits, liability. Please rate these as buys, holds, sells from here and, for the holds, how much patience may be needed and how much upside you see. thanks
