Investment Q&A

Q: Hello

which one of these companies is better from a growth perspective.

Also, with ransomware and corporate hacking being the new frontier for all CIO's and IT Managers, which 2 companies, in your opinion, have the edge with their technology and I can add these to my portfolio.

Thank you,

Rajesh

Q: MAGT After reading your earlier comments on the company, I got some interest and looked at the company's Investor Presentation and News etc at its website.
In one of the Slides in the Presentation, a page relating to 'Competition' had been deleted and a reference was made to the Preliminary Prospectus in Sedar, that I could not access. I have two questions:
1. While the past performance of MAGT is impressive, one needs to look at the future prospects. In this regard, we must know about the competitive mote this company has against others, if any. Do you have any information about the competition?
2. The top 3 executives own now 80% of the stock. Is there a possibility that they will unload their stocks, if stock price shoots up substantially. Also, how much one can trust on Jim Balsillie (former RIM founder) to stick with this investment.
Appreciate your reasoned comments and reply.
Thanks and regards
Antony

Q: Do any North American cybercrime-related companies interesting at this time? Thanks.

Q: Hello,with all the recent cyber attacks,and probably even more in the future is there any Cdn companies or more likely U.S. companies that could possibly see more business as this problem will not go away.Are their any you would endorse and why...thanks so much and have a great day.

Q: Please rate these cyber security companies as your choice to buy for a 3-5 yr. hold. Any others you would choose?

Q: I am looking for growth. I own these US stock. Are there any you would sell in order to buy others in the group or other US stock?

Q: Can you recommend any stocks of network security software providers?

Q: I have been recently reading more about the SolarWinds hack and the desperate need for beefing up cyber security. I know CrowdStrike is one of your favourites and you have brought up the potential Arctic Wolf IPO. Just wondering if any other companies are interesting in the cyber security space.

Thanks for your great service.

Q: What are your top 3 ideas for a cyber security stock that could be bought now for a multi year hold?

Q: I’m wondering if you could share your top three cyber security stocks. Thanks

Q: Can you give me your recommendations for 2 or 3 cyber security companies for a long term investment.
Thanks
Randy

Q: I own a full position in FTNT and in RPD in a registered account. The holding is for 10 years +++ Would you be inclined to switch one of the two for CRWD , which one and why? There would be no fees associate to the trade (no tax implication and trading fees are not significative relative to the size of the position)
if not, why?

Q: First of all, thank you for all your great advice. It's appreciated.
I'm interested in ideas for some good stocks involved in "data protection," please. Basically cyber security I guess, but more specifically the protection of what the everyday individual does on the internet, social media, etc (ie: your personal data) from being collected and used by Facebook, Google, Apple, Amazon, etc, etc, etc.
If you have a differing opinion please feel free to express it, but my thought would be that what is done with our personal data and all the compounding issues that tie into this theme are a societal issue that will hopefully get a lot of attention in the coming years.. decades..
Thank you.

Q: In the cyber security space how would you rank these names. Please, add to this list if you have other favorites.
Your insight is much appreciated, Peter

Q: Hello team,

From here on, which one has significantly more growth potential, NET or RPD?

How do you rank them based on their balance sheet, competitive advantage, and management?

Or do you have something better to suggest in tech, with superior balance sheet, management, and growth potential?

Thanks! :)

Q: Hi , as you mentioned future trend of people staying home and work and boss wants to monitor work. Would you suggest companies that involve in this ? Thanks.

Q: Hi,
I am interested in getting exposure to the cybersecurity sub-sector. Can you provide your three best stock ideas at this time?
Thanks,
Dan

Q: Hello 5i
Which would you buy for long term RPD or FTNT and a brief reasoning would be great!
Thanks
Dave

Q: Thank you for your comments on RPD earnings report yesterday. In your response you said "We would not be overly concerned here, though it has slipped some spots on our list of growth companies". Can you let me know what growth companies you have higher up on your list. I am up 20% on RPD and am happy to sell it for something higher up on your list.

Thanks so much for your excellent service.

Q: What did you think of its earnings report? Do you still like it moving forward for a long term hold?
