Q: With PNG's bought deal and the stock trading down close to the bought price of 2.66, is this an opportunity to add to position at a bit of a discount? The thesis is once the bought deal is finished, the company and stock should continue to perform as well, if not better, as it was before the deal. The new money will fund expansionary growth and as the company hinted at, perhaps finance an acquisition. Make sense?

Q: As of 3pm, market really doesn't like PNG and its earnings. It's down over 8% on heavy volume. Your earlier comments said all is still intact for long term and market probably wouldn't react too harshly. Is this a buy opportunity or is caution warranted? Might there be problems that aren't apparent yet?

Q: I have a half position in Kraken in a TFSA. Their PE is high though I see high sales growth this year with several contracts signed this year. Do we have any idea of what the next couple of years may show? Have Kraken give a 3-5 year plan? Do you believe in their chance of continuing at a high rate in the near future? It's easier for a small company to grow fast and not so easy later. Is there so much potential in their sector of activity that they can continue to grow at a fast clip?
Thank you for your analyse.

Q: hi 5i,
I have the above 4 in my TFSA. I am considering selling ATZ ( due to tariff concerns vis a vis Aritzia manufacturing in China/Vietnam/etc. ). I own ATZ in another account and will keep it there. I would deploy the proceeds of a potential ATZ sell in the TFSA to the other 3 remaining equities, or perhaps to another equity if you have any other better suggestions currently ( CDN equities only please ). cheers and thanks, Chris

Q: Hello 5i,
There have been many negative questions regarding Tariffs and other non-Canadian officials. Wondering if it makes sense to look to those Canadian companies that would benefit from the upcoming April 28, 2025 event results.
Following is my list of questions for you – please feel free to take as many credits as you require since I typically don’t use many.
• The clear winner looks to be BAM/BN/BIP/BEP with the massive housing & project build plans. Some housing build plans look to be well beyond anything the private sector has ever seen. Outside of investing in BAM/BN/BIP/BEP are there any other companies that will experience increased growth rates? Perhaps Canadian Only Lumber Companies, Steel, etc.… Being careful to ensure the industrial carbon tax doesn’t offset any building growth rates.
• Looks like major projects are going to be built to save the country from the tariffs. Assuming these are going to be non-conventional energy would the companies such as BAM/BN/BIP/BEP/WSP, benefit the most? Are there any other companies to start looking at? Perhaps carbon capture companies?
• I wonder if there are any areas of benefactors increasing/decreasing the amount of tax havens in Canada? There are a fair number of mid/small companies that could setup a beneficial tax structure and become more profitable. My experience with setting up offshore structures is that there are setup/dismantle/maintenance costs with Lawyers and Accountants but perhaps other benefactors are investable. Are there any publicly traded Accounting or Legal companies to start watching?
• With proposed additional spend to media companies are there any benefactors? Will BCE benefit from the overall plan? Are there companies worth looking at in the media sector?
• With the additional military spend are there any companies in Canada to invest in? I have a small position in MAL which could benefit from Canada built fighter jets. Is BBD.B a good one to look at?
• After reviewing the proposed firearm buyback pricing list, the overall program looks to be worth ~$2B in 2025 for Canadians. My question is could there be benefactors to this spend? Maybe ~$2B is not enough to stimulate the economy considering the current spending levels but it reminds me of a COVID-like spend bump. Assuming a large portion of the funds will be redistributed back into the economy.
• Health care seems to be getting an increased focus compounded with the buy Canada therefore are there any pure Canadian pharmaceutical/healthcare companies that will benefit? I have a SIS position that I could add to if they are going to be benefactors. Are there any companies that provide safe site vending machines or building structures?
