Q: The Canadian Apartment Properties Real Estate Investment Trust (CAR.UN) was following a solid upward trend for at least 7 years up to mid 2021 (ignoring the temporary COVID disruption). However, the REIT has followed a flat trend since then. What factors stopped its growth? We hear so much about the scarcity of residential housing these days, so what is holding back the companies in this REIT?

Can you rank AIA (ETF), TT, and KKR on their potential for growth over the next 5-10 years. We own 3% positions AIA for Asia exposure and KKR due to their global footprint,

Q: TVK has recently shown some weakness and hasn't made any recent acquisitions - this is probably due to the large ones made already recently and the need to incorporate those although maybe it's something else.

I am surprised that with the recent share program @ $160/share and being over subscribed that it would have given more of a floor to the stock so is the weakness a good opportunity to buy shares and if so, what is a good price to start or add?

Btw, does the company give indication on the size of its M&A pipeline?


Thanks as always!

Q: Hello 5i, FEO

What are the fundamentals like on this Iron exploration company? I realize they are in the early exploratory stage so would be considered high risk but if you could comment or have any info on management profile, company history and forward projections and revenue this would be very appreciated. Gold and Silver have had a good run as of late, do you feel that Iron would be "in that space" for mineral momentum?
Thanks so incredibly much!

Q: Dear Peter:

Enjoyed your appearance on BNN Bloomberg's Market call last week. Great Q&A. For the sake other subscribers, perhaps you can post the link here?

My question: You were quite effusive abut PNG (Kraken Robotics) on the how but didn't make it to your top 3. NBIS did. I can understand CECO. But Elf Beauty made it but not PNG. You must have solid reasons for it. Care to share your rationale?

Should one accumulate PNG or simply take 2% position and leave it be?
