Investment Q&A

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

Q: I'm looking for a 'reasonable' way to approach the 5G world as it rolls out over the next few years. With so much being said about this technology, is there a way to approach this with Canadian companies? While the companies I note are not really comparable I mention them only as potential candidates to look at. Would you see an investor better off to be in a large cap such as BCE or lean towards a small cap such as BYL? Would the cable companies be worth a look? What other companies are likely to benefit from the 5G rollout that you would suggest looking at? I am comfortable with risk so small cap and volatility is ok.

I'm more interested in what companies I should be researching and potentially adding to my portfolio.
Thanks

Q: Hi Ryan
I have been trying to formulate an investment thesis regarding the impending roll out of 5G and am wondering if 5i has developed any ideas as how to invest in this technology. Noticed a few commentators have indicated that the best way would not necessarily be with the telcos but rather with the "picks and shovels" providers like chip makers or contract manufacturers.

Also, read an interesting piece the other day on SA regarding CCI in the US positioning itself for 5G.

Thanks for your insight

Brad
