Investment Q&A

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

Q: One of the biggest BB shareholders is FFH, if I am not mistaken.
Do you know if FFH is holding on to its shares or dumping them into this frenzy?
How would one know? I think this would be material information to know how.

Q: In researching the recent Gamestop madness, I have read that many of the shorts will expire on Friday. Given that the shorting hedge funds have been doubling down on their positions:
https://www.wsj.com/articles/citadel-point72-to-invest-2-75-billion-into-melvin-capital-management-11611604340
is there any possibility that there is a cascading effect of hedge funds potentially getting liquidated? I know that speculating in this matter is akin to mental gymnastics, but I think that the GME holders are here to prove a point about the shady dealings on Wall Street. Is it possible that a showdown between greedy hedge funds and Robinhood/Reddit millenials leads to a wider market shock?

Q: On the RBC Direct Investing web site it shows the short position of BYP.UN as 7.06%. Is that correct?

Being that there is an (almost) guaranteed offer to takeover BPY.UN by BAM is it unusual to have such a large short position in this case at this time? Aren't the shorts going to have to cover eventually and that would put upward pressure on the stock price? Your comments please.

Q: Hi, my respected 5i team
What are your interpretations of its earing report today? What are the reasons behind the almost 7% price drop?
I think this stock will probably benefit from the global economic recovery after Covid. What are your opinions about it?
I have been watching this stock and been waiting for an entry point to buy, plan to hold it a year or two. Do you think the price here is attractive or at what price range you think is a good entry point?

Thanks in advance!

Q: Hi 5i,
I'm looking at a small investment in the graphene space (batteries, auto parts etc.). 2 companies that I have found are GRA (nanoxplore) and ZEN (zen graphene solutions).
Are there any others to consider?
Would it be possible to provide a bit of background information on these 2 (and others you may like) and give your thoughts?
Of these 2 do you have a preference or would you split 50/50?
Thanks!!

Q: Can you please compare and contrast BFT (Paysafe) and Nuvei? I have started to see a lot of buzz on BFT ahead of it's transaction and wonder if you would consider it a buy? Picking between BFT and Nuvei would you favour one or the other? The numbers seem impressive. Who are their other competitors and what is the potential total addressable market?

Thanks!

Q: With copper prices rising, I am starting to wonder about when recycling of copper will become more profitable than mining. A copper-porphyry geologist friend mentioned $4 CA being the price when it is more economical to recycle copper than mine it. Are there copper recycling companies in Canada or elsewhere that you are aware of and that you may recommend?

Thanks,
Ellen
