Q: Hi Peter and 5i Team,

Can a case be made to own both EXE and SIA in a RRIF? If only one could be owned, which one would you keep, and why?

Other holdings in the Healthcare Sector (across other accounts) include WELL, VHI, and XHC. CSH is also owned, but it’s in the Real Estate Sector.

As always, thanks for your valuable insight.

Q: Hi there, wouldn't it be worthwhile for some to takeover WELL now, by paying a real good premium to todays price and yet... still scoop up WELL on the cheap, based on its future potential and better execution with new management/board?

If so, who do you feel would want to take over WELL?

What would be a good takeover price based on Q1 results and 2025 forward guidance?

Thanks!

Q: These 4 stocks , held in roughly equal amounts, constitute my TFSA , which holds my riskier , growthier companies. It’s early yet but could you give me 3 companies to review and follow before the next TFSA contribution.
Also, your choice of either PXT or TSU as potential picks. Thanks Derek

Q: Bit confused on WELL. In one response, it says it was a solid quarter with no negative comments. Management re-iterated guidance. In another response, issues raised about debt etc and it's rated a hold. Stock shot up in the morning and then gradually declined into a loss. Can you ofer an explanation on what's happening with WELL. Was the quarter encouraging or not.

Q: Hi 5i Team - Do you have confidence that the management team can execute on their plans. We have held this stock for some time based on their potential but it doesn't seem to realize this potential. It's performance has been disappointing so am wondering what it would take to get discouraged investors interested again. What are the insider holdings and has there been any recent buying or selling by them. If you think it best to wait until after it reports
tomorrow before answering that's fine. I am considering selling all our shares and using the money elsewhere but want to consider all the factors. Thanks.

Q: I'm thinking of exiting WELL for something that will be growthier if the markets continue to recover. I have VHI, GLXY and PRL in the Canadian side of my TFSA. Can you suggest a Canadian Growthy stock regardless of sector?

Q: Please help me out. One of the metrics I find very important is ROE or return on equity. When I look this up look this up on 5i’s site under profile I get an ROE of 128% however when I look at the April 25/24 report it shows 2%? The current Morningstar Quant Report shows 3.99%. So 1st. question is does 5i consider ROE to be an important metric?
Secondly how can I get an accurate measurement?
Thanks

Q: Which tax loss proxies would you suggest for the following companies?
Are there some that you would rather stay in cash for a month or just sell out right and buy something unrelated?
I am a bit hesitant to sell BN,GOOG and AMZN for a tax loss as I feel they have the most bounce potential on good news. What do you think of that?

Q: Hey guys - thanks for the great service!

From Well Health FY 2024 reporting - I read Well was penalized $2.8B USD for the Circle business billing. "Company recognized an expense of USD $2.8 million for the year ended December 31, 2024, for estimated settlement costs."

For a company with a Market Cap of about $1B.....this settlement cost appears to overwhelm any chance to remain solvent looking into the foreseeable future. What am I missing.

Glenn

Q: I hold WELL, LMN, GLXY , EIF in roughly equal amounts in my TFSA and they are approximately 5% of my total cash and RRIF portfolios. My initial TFSA set up was for small cap growth stocks as other portfolios are full of banks , utilities, pipelines etc. Am retired and have enjoyed playing the “ riskier “ side of my portfolios , but haven’t made much money at it ! Am looking at selling it all and buying HTA for its
10 % distribution while keeping me in a growth sector. I like the idea of getting some money NOW instead of waiting till I sell. What do you think of this approach ? Possibly split the portfolio with HTA and EIF ? If I sold in stages in what order would you sell ? Thanks Derek.

Q: In my TFSA I have held WELL for 4 years and now considering selling along with DRX. Would selling these 2 and replacing with ISRG make sense for better growth.
