Investment Q&A

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

Q: In a broadly diversified portfolio, for a risk tolerant investor, how would you rate these stocks on a 1 - 10 scale, with a "10" meaning for sure you want this stock in your portfolio, and a "1" being you absolutely do not want this stock in your portfolio. Long term time horizon, looking for growth. AT, CTS, DCBO, DOC, DND, NVEI, TIXT, WELL, WISH.

Q: Hi there,

I only have a little bit of money to put in right now and I’m looking at either WELL or Air Canada - which would you recommend? I am comfortable holding for a year or two minimum and am looking for growth but want to stay on the safer side. Appreciate your insight!

Q: With the recent 10% correction in technology stocks, do you think it is a good time to buy. Would appreciate your recommendation of 3 Canadian and 3 US stocks to buy. I am looking for growth and can take risk. Thanks

Q: Hi 5i team
I would like to thank you for all your sound advice since inception. I would need to trim up to 5 stocks from this portfolio. If you were in that position, which ones would you cut starting with first to cut up to fifth. These stocks are in a rrsp with equal percentages. Thanks. Gilles

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan and Team,

Sorry if this as been asked before but I am wondering what your top 3 growth companies would be irrespective of sector on both the U.S. and Canadian side? (So 3 U.S. and 3 Canadian) to take a position in on this pull-back?

Thanks for all you folks do, very appreciated.

Q: Hi 5i team,

Any thoughts on how far this trend of selling tech or renewables will continue? Looks like NASDAQ is now negative ytd with many of your Canadian techs down 20+ percent ytd.

When would you seriously start putting floor bids on the favs like CSU, KXS, LSPD, WELL, REAL, SCR, and XBC? If you could put in dollar amts for each it would also be great.

Thx

Q: The markets have been very nasty to some favorites in the past week or so. Can you recommend one or two companies or funds that you think have really been hit unrealistically hard? Your opinion would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Q: Just wondering if you think the recent pullback was overdone on some of your favourite companies making them much better buys today than they were before. If so, I would appreciate it if you could suggest 3 Canadian and 3 American companies that now have more upside.

Q: Hello,
I have new money to allocate. Which ones of these are your favorites for 5 year + hold notwithstanding they have different risk profile and in different sectors (best overall risk / reward. I am underweight small cap). I already own KXS and ENGH but i could add to existing positions. Thank you!

Q: Hi Peter,

Please recommend a basket of small caps (7-8 names) that are looking attractive today. Long term growth, medium to high risk. Would you initiate new positions in any of the noted names?

Thanks in advance.

Read Answer Asked by K on February 24, 2021
Q: Doing a little research for additions to my TFSA. Looking at GSY, WELL and XBC. I find it curious that GSY has a market cap for approx. $1.9 billion and trades at $125 per share, while the other two have market caps of approx. $1.4 billion and trade at sub $10. Is this a lesson in the difference between a Company growing organically vs growing through acquisitions and issuing large amounts of stock. I'm not saying that the other 2 aren't good companies, but I find it curious that they have similar market caps, yet their share price is ten times higher. Thoughts?

Thank you,
Jason
