Investment Q&A

Q: Hi Team,
Thanks for the great commentary you provide daily. Could I please get your thoughts on FuboTV’s latest quarter? The company reported over a million subscribers and with sportsbetting and expanding their streaming offering to new international markets, what do you think of the company’s prospects long term?

Thanks

Q: What would be your top pick for exposure to gold, and thoughts on KL specifically?

Q: Hi 5i,
A while ago i wrote and asked about selling ATZ because it had risen substantially, and you advised "we think one of the worst reasons to sell a stock is because it is up". I heeded your advice, did not sell and presently, I'm very happy I asked and that you answered as you did.
Which brings me to my question(s):
I hold DBM and after I bought in it dropped considerably and I was down just over 20% for what seemed like quite some time. Recently it's been climbing, to the point I'm now down 5%. I put a fair amount in (for me that is) so the money involved is significant to me. Along with hoping for capital gain, the dividend was a motivating factor in my buy in.
EQX did the same thing after I bought in and at one point I was down just over 40%. It has now recovered to the point that I'm down about 18%. Monetarily speaking I don't have nearly as much on the line as with DBM, so my level of concern is considerably less.
If these stocks continue their recent trends and continue to rise, would the advice you gave for ATZ hold true for them, or would you advise me to let them go if they get to or near my buy in?
I ask because I expect - but am not sure - that the advice not to sell just because a stock is up may not hold true in every situation, depending on the names in question. Your thoughts regarding DBM and EQX in this context will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
Peter

Q: Can I please ask your opinion on Mister Car Wash? The company has pulled back since the IPO and I'm wondering if this is a good entry price.

Thank you!

Q: Could I get your opinion on MAL, after their Q3 report, as a long term income hold.

Q: Which would you prefer SIA.un or Charwell and why.

Q: NVEI, MAGT, and UPST have come down drastically since their highs a short time ago. Is this another AT because unfortunately I bought it at $22. I am concerned that these three seem to be doing the same thing.
While I have seen some of my picks recommended by 5i go up drastically of late - NVDA, AFRM CELH, NET and GOOGLE, I would appreciate your thoughts on the ones above-noted going down. Thanks again,

Q: Can i have your opinion on SB's latest quarter and longer term growth prospects

Q: I currently own ECN in a TSFA. If part of the special dividend will be ROC ,it appears that will not be a positive result for me, and the loss in stock value after the dividend is paid will possibly take years to recover. Would I just be better off selling today and foregoing the dividend? Thoughts?

Q: I’m currently down on eglx, xbc and at, would you be comfortable adding a little to these names at these levels? Have they turned the corner, especially eglx and xbc? What would it take before adding more?

Also do you still like PLUG as a growth name? Looking to add more here. Thanks!

Q: Hi,

Could I have your top two picks for Healthcare please, which can include the US as I'm low on my US exposure.

Thanks,

Q: Can you provide your thoughts on MRAM? It looks to be in a position to capitalize on a disruptive computer memory technology that few others have invested in, and is newly profitable. It also ran up 63% on Friday on volume more than 6x its public float.

Q: MRAM was up 56% on friday on volume of 92,871,736 shares traded. Great. How is this possible when the float is listed as 19.5 million shares.
I use to own this listing, but it makes me wonder what is going on. What is your take, each issued share traded 5 times on Friday, or what is the true valuation of the company? Seems weird fishy.

Q: Hi Peter,

Some time back i asked a question about DND having a so called "position of power", whereby, they could raise prices as get away with it as there is not much competition. Your response was along the lines of : that they should be careful in raising prices as there are other options out there. Your words are reading like a prophecy.

The Globe and Mail reports in its Friday, Nov. 12, edition that Dye & Durham has told about1,000 B.C. firms that it was sharply increasing the price of the software they use to handle real estate transactions. The Globe's Sean Silcoff and Jaren Kerr write that as of this Friday, they will be charged $199 per file, up from the $30 to $75 they have been paying since the last increase in 2017. The ultimate cost will be passed on to their customers, home buyers. Dye & Durham has made a string of acquisitions in the legal software space. It now faces little competition. Outraged conveyancers, notaries and lawyers inundated Dye & Durham with calls. Moderators of two Facebook groups for B.C. real estate professionals told The Globe that 50 of their members had complained to the Competition Bureau of Canada. Bureau spokesman Amy Butcher said the bureau would start "a thorough examination of the facts to determine if an investigation is warranted." Eight B.C. real estate legal professionals who spoke to The Globe said many of their colleagues shared their negative views of Dye & Durham price hikes. One conveyancer said, "Everybody is really angry, really disappointed."

Does DND have a monopoly and what are your views?

Thanks,

Q: I own Etsy and just wondering if it is worth keeping? I’m thinking of taking profits and moving away from retail with the idea that we are moving into a higher inflation period.

Thank for the great service!

Q: Thoughts on the Opendoor quarter? Do you think this type of technology/business model has a bright future? Would you rather an equal weighting of all three of these names (say 2% each) or is there a clear leader in which it might be more prudent to take a single larger 5% position?

I feel that the real estate sector could become much more efficient and liquid especially with a large player or consolidator that increases competition and should lead to lower transaction costs. Real estate agencies and the (until somewhat recently) gatekept MLS feel like a 'dinosaur' of an industry ripe for tech-based disruption. What are your thoughts about this? Thanks.

Q: Can I have an update on this company. It is quite small I know, but it seems to be going gang buster in the last year. Also can you advise when they report earnings again. Many tnx.
