Q: Only 2 questions on ARR in archives and both old. Can you give a quick review on how investible this small renewables royalty company is after 2 years of operation? What alternatives would you suggest if you feel there are better opportunities (either other renewable royalty companies or individual companies such as BEPC)? Thanks for all you do, John

Q: Hi team, RBOT

I have been holding this robotics and AI etf for several years and noted that it somehow managed to completely bypass the rallies in both. Any comments here and guidance of future steps?
Thanks.

Q: What are your thoughts on private credit lending? I am considering opening an accountant at wealth simple and the advisor said it's better returns (they shoot for 9%) with less risk. Being as it's interest income I would have this in a TFSA or RRSP likely. Is this a good addition to an otherwise balanced portfolio?

Q: Hi, I was wondering if I can get your opinion on these stocks I'm holding losses on ATZ down 50%, ENPH down 25%, CROX down 25% and GSY down 20%.
I did tax loss selling last year in late December which bit me hard when the stocks took off in January with me sitting on the sidelines. Should I consider selling any of these now with the intention of buying back in 30 days and harvesting the tax loss? If so which would you suggest selling and which would you buy back? Short of that would you suggest averaging down on any of these instead? Thanks in advance! Take as many credits as you wish.

Q: Hello, what are the reasons that constellation made 2 spinoff (topicus and lumine) in the past years ? Why did they not keep everything under one roof and continue to grow constellation instead and follow the same path like Berkshire Hathaway that never did a spinoff.

Q: Hi 5i Team,

I am trying to understand how RETURN of Capital works on ETF.

Eg: Buy 1000 shares at 14 = 14000 and get 8% dividend.
Sell 1000 shares after a year at 15 = 15000. So Total return is 15% return on my investment. (8% dividend plus 1K capital gain = 7%)

Please advise if the above calculation is correct or is it the original investment minus 8% dividend.

Thanks for the great service

Q: Hi 5i
What to do with this one?...Stock is now at 0.45 .....
I have read your previous answers regarding this question , that it is better to simply move on... is this advice still valid? Will it have to undergo a reverse split to stay listed?


On the same note, TD Web broker indicates this stock is followed by 6 analysts ....all rate it as a buy with avg PT of around $3.40..... How is this possible and could you please comment on how these targets could actually be justified from an analysts perspective....any speculation on how they arrive at these numbers? I find the ratings quite puzzling.

thx
