Q: On GSY & WELL. I am down 30% on both in a registered account. Looking at the tax loss and moving to AT and CSU. I have started to use this as a growth account. Or I could sell and wait 30 days to rebuy. Looking for growth possibility so being a little more aggressive is OK

Q: Hi,

With stock prices much depressed I have concerns that some unprofitable growth companies will have a hard time raising sufficient cash to fund operations; at least without massive dilution.

My question is two part:
1. What is (are?) the best metrics to assess profitability of a company (net margins, cash flow, etc)?
2. From your Canadian list of companies which do you see as the most needy to raise cash within the next 6-12 months in order to continue to fund operations.

Thanks,

Cam

Q: Hi Peter and team, I don't hold any of the above stocks and they have done very well the last 2 years. I do own some of your favorites like BAM, TOI, CUS, SHOP and LSPD etc. How would you rank the above stocks and would they be good buy when the dust finally settles.

Q: Greetings 5i team,
I hold WELL and DSG in my TFSA to the tune of about 1.5% each of my overall portfolio. I am considering selling one or both and concentrating on one of three companies: WELL, DSG or GSY. If we were to ignore company size, sector, diversification and strictly look at 5 yr growth potential, would you 1. Hold one or two of these names and 2. In which order do you think has / have the most potential?
I am not averse to holdings of < 3% if I might add to them in the future.
Thank you as always.
