Investment Q&A

Q: On Sept 11, Otex announced it has received authorization for the OpenText IT Management Platform (ITMX) from the Federal Risk and Authorization Management Program (FedRAMP®) (https://finance.yahoo.com/news/opentext-management-platform-achieves-fedramp-142600427.html ) .

You mentioned before that OTEX may need time to integrate previous M/A. With the FEDRAMP approval, would it be a buy now? Or would you consider stronger stocks to be better total returns over the next 3-4 years? Please rank the attached companies (knowing that they're all very different).

Thank you so much for your insights!

Q: Can you rank in order the top 10 small caps that you feel have the most potential over the next 6 months and provide a quick statement on why each is included?

Q: Hello,
I was wondering why vital hub is going down lately whereas topicus is slowly inching upwards yet it hardly moved after its great results.. Also, what are your thoughts on sentinelOne in cyber security area.. Much appreciated.

Q: I'm a 65 year old div investor with a defined pension. I'm investigating the BMO covered Call Health Care ETF (ZWHC) as a way to play the Health Care Sector as there is not much available in Cdn. I have a question on the cost of this ETF. The fact sheet states Max annual management fee of .65% and then it says an MER of .73%.
Do I add the two % up to equal 1.38% or would I just pay the MER of .73%?
I hold WELL (hoping for growth) but have been waiting quite awhile and nothing much seems to happen. I'm down (-26%). Its been good if you bought lately but if you bought back during COVID, not so much.
I know you still recommend it so should I hope for the best and wait awhile longer (hope not being much of an investment strategy) or move on? VHI seems to be moving better? Appreciate your thoughts.

Q: Hi team,

Looking for strong growth in the health sector.

Do you think OSCR-N, RXST-Q, VHI-T and National Health Care are the best options for the purpose ? And what is the level of risk ?

Please deduct as many credits as you see fit.

Gratefully,

Jacques IDS

Q: Hello Team,

Looking at updating/rejigging my TFSA account, are you able to rank the above stocks from 1 - 12, looking at a 3 year hold. These are a mix of some I hold and some I want to purchase. Not worried about size, risk and or industry. Thanks.

Q: Which one do you prefer right now?
Thank you

Q: Hello Peter,
Can you comment on Vitahub's results? Why is Algonquin down so much as it was expected the company would sells its renewable business? Given lumine group results, is it better to move monies into topicus or csu? Lastly does it matter if company reports before the market or after the market?

Q: Would you kindly provide 4 US stocks and 4 CDN stocks that would be your best bets today to increase in value by 1000% over the next 10 years. Thanks.

Q: I realize that all we have is a press release from the company , but what are your thoughts of the recent large acquisition?

Q: Question on RESP - thinking of selling BNS and replacing with GSY and PRL 50/50 also thinking of adding some WELL and VHI for long term holds any suggestions

Q: What are 5-6 stocks 5i would pick that are Canadian, profitable, and less than $1 billion market cap for the higher risk/growth part of a portfolio, to hold for the long term?

Q: There has been lots of good discussion about these 6 stocks on your forums section over the last year BDT, DRX, GSY, HPS.A, PRL, VHI. All have been big winners. Do you think they are still promising investments at current prices?

Q: For a growth investment, I am looking at either WELL or VHI. Which one would you choose and why?

Thanks

Q: Not to put you on the spot, BUT... If you were looking at growth only, which of these three would you choose?

Q: Could you please comment on the recent Q1 report for Vitalhub? Has your confidence in this company's future increased or diminished as a result? Thanks so much - your service to the DIY investing community is remarkable. You are my #1 go-to source for stock research.

Q: All of the above companies have now reported thier respective quarterly results in the last two weeks and their respective prices adjusted accordingly.

I appreciate that all have been suggested by 5i in response to numerous and varied questions. Based on your overall assessment, the recent results and forecasts and their respective pricing as of todays date, would you be able to rank them for acquisition together with a brief comment please.

Regards,

Terry

Q: Can you provide your top 5 growth stock picks over the next 6-12 months and provide commentary on why each is worthy to make the list. Appreciate getting separate Canadian and US lists.

Q: hi 5i, these stocks are in my cash account , I need to sale 2 or 3 of them to raise some cash. I'm happy with all of them. but unfortunately have to sale. I'm thinking I could let go SMCI (since I have NVDA), VHI, and META. Or trim a bit of each. Your opinion please! thanks

Q: I just submitted a question about VHI in which I referred to the recent prospectus. I am fully aware that all the shares were exercised and that it was to raise money so please ignore that as not relevent to my question. I should have asked how likely it is that this is the only financing this year and does this fit with keeping the share count down?
