Q: Hi 5i
Today Blackberry has had quite a surprising run up over 22%.
Can you supply any insight into what has happened to drive this. Would you continue to hold this stock or add based on any new information for 2 yr hold.
Thx
Jim

Q: In one of my previous questions about Leon's, I referenced the company's profile page where it shows, like it has for months, that there is one analyst covering LNF. In your answer, you indicated there were, in fact, two analysts covering LNF.

Q1 = I have waited quite a while for the 5iR company profile page to be updated by your data provider to reflect the above # analysts (two). Is there a way to reach out to your data provider and request him to update this? Or...is it that the "missing analyst" is from a firm that they do not consider significant enough?

Q2 = While we are on the topic, how many analysts does 5iR currently have in their system that cover LNF now and what is there current target?

Q3 = What is YOUR internal target for Leon's one year out? How much upside to you see?

Thanks for your help...Steve

Q: Hi Peter & Team
I am considering buying either AMD, NTC Intel or TSC Taiwan Semiconductor.
Please explain which one you would choose and way.
I value your expertise.

Q: My two cents worth on the proposed deal. I think ATD would be better served looking forward slowly adding charging stations, customers will linger longer and do more impulse buying. Should stick to its netting.

Q: With intel having a new CEO, do you think its story is changing? Would you recommend to buy at today's price for a long term holding? Thank you for your service.

Q: GoldMoney has woken up, but I don't see any recent news. Your last comments in August seemed to be positive. I'm sitting with a 1/4 position wondering if there is a good reason to buy more, or to sell it off as I've held it for a while in taxable account currently in a loss position.

Thanks!!

Q: Is Veeva’s (VEEV) conversion to a Public Benefit Corporation likely to have any negative impact on its share price over the long term? Thank you

Q: Would you please suggest 2 US and 2 Canadian stocks that hold promise in short to medium term for my daughter's RESP ? Thanks.

Q: Hello 5i team. I wanted to get your opinion regarding these companies. With investment in Rivian by Ford, GM's EV product and new cars, they both seem like good value opportunities with upside. Can you compare the two from a valuation perspective, and give your opinion?

Also, I read that Intel has best in class driverless car tech. Their legacy business is a drag on their PE. What are your thoughts on Intel and would you be a buyer?

Q: Hi Peter and Staff

FInally bite the bullet on Sienna, looking to redeploy in the US topping up some or all of my US basket of health care. Please eliminate any of the above that you do not feel are a buy at this time and rank the rest within categories of strong buy, buy or hold.
Thanks for all you do

Q: Hi 5i, Thanks for all you do.
I would like to put some money in in the Asian markets and was looking at AIA for diversification.
What are your thoughts on this ETF and is this a good approach. If not what would you recommend.

Thanks

Q: Hello,
I’m wondering if I could have your opinion on these companies and if any of them look interesting to you. Thanks!

Q: Hi!
Just wondering if you still like gold and if so why, and should precious metals always be held as a certain percentage in one's portfolio even if it is trending lower. What percentage would you want to see in precious metals? Would you ever put a stop loss on something like FNV or just hold in your portfolio forever, watch it go down and hopefully back up one day?

Q: Hi 5i,
Are you aware of any news related to DYA today. It is up 25%.
Thanks!

Q: Big surge in AFN this morning. Any major news? Do you see further upside?

Thanks.

Q: Only two holdings in my parents portfolio that both include a significant portion of bonds. Concerned if interest rates rise more than expected in a short period and bond prices decline. Wondering about putting a hedge in place , would a financial services etf accomplish this? Better ideas or thoughts on the bond portions of the holdings I referenced?

Q: EMA and FTS are both trading below their 200 dma and at their support prices.
Is there anything fundamentally wrong with either company to account for the drop? Or is money just rotating out of utilities?
I have 1/2 position in each and am thinking to add to them on this dip.
Would you suggest to add now at these prices? Or wait for them to turn up and over the 200 dma as they may just drop further?

Q: In your experience, how do underwriters of new issues "support" the price of a stock once trading has commenced; and what kind of under-standings do parties agree to regarding the timing and other aspects
of this activity? Thank you.

Q: Hi Peter,
The market did not take kindly to the revenue guidance for 2021 even if the growth rate would be 20%? Were the expectations from Europe much higher than what the company expects? What is your view? With its current valuation and projected growth, would you expect the stock price to stagnate? Unless they promise low and deliver over?
