Q: Hello. I am looking at buying stock in one of these three companies. I recognize that these selections are in very different sectors. I would very much appreciate your opinion as to which one seems to hold the best potential as a long-term hold (5+ years). Thanks.

Q: I purchased CPRT earlier this year and have a decent gain, I am considering selling it but it has been rising quite nicely. Is there any recent news to account for the recent price improvement? No need for cash, I would just buy something else and it's in a registered account so taxes are not an issue.

Q: On June 16th you listed CPRT as one of five US compounders. Does this mean that this and the other companies listed are as close to 'buy and forget' companies as one can find? What are your thoughts about CPRT considering its strong gains of late? Is it still a buy then?

Q: Hi 5i,
In reviewing my asset allocations, I am underweight in US and International. I am also light on Healthcare, Industrials, and Technology. Are there any companies (top 5) that jump out at you as growth based names that could help with this in terms of a 'two-birds-one-stone' approach?
I have a 10+ year timeline and a high risk tolerance.
Thanks in advance!

Q: Hi, looking at your Feb 2021 Investor Suite, page 14.

You show an implied return of 6.7% and I'm wondering how you get that. Immediately above the 6.7 are the numbers 236.13 and 123.51 and if you divide those and take the result to the 1/10 power and subtract one you get 6.7%. Trouble is, the 236.13 is described as "Shares Outs." meaning presumably shares outstanding, which really throws me (also, the shares outstanding are actually 2.36 million according to the companies section of the 5i website which suggests you really meant to say shares outstanding). I can see the logic if you meant to say "projected share price in 10 years". Can you explain to me how you get the 6.7%? Thanks.
