Investment Q&A

Q: Hey 5i, Last Monday I sent the Sector question below to 5iRinfo because it was a question about the website not a stock. I didn't get a response back from 5i, so I'll ask the question again. I don't think I should lose a question credit for this question.

I am a current member and can't find on your website if 5i does a Stock Sector Weighting chart i.e. today on the TSX what stock sectors should we be Overweight, Neutral and Underweight in? Should I have a heavier weighting in Finance or Technology? I'm sure you get it! If this chart is not there and updated on a regular basis then it certainly should be!!
Thanks for your help.
Cheers,
Chris Thomson

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
Of course I am a long time holder of this company and a down a ton. Do you think this company has any ability to advance? I am down so much it seems better to wait if it has any chance to progress. In other words I have a lot more to gain than lose by waiting...if you know what I mean. On the other hand I know we have to accept our losses. Thanks for your opinion!

Q: I've never been inclined to invest in Tesla. Mostly because the stock price is largely influenced by what comes out of Elon's mouth. But there is no question the man is an innovator. And his new announcement of the Pi Phone looks like a game changer . I doubt if Apple or Samsung can pop up a satellite network anytime soon ..... Not to mention a low price point and solar charging. And for the youth that drives this market the damn thing just plain looks sexy ..... And of course at $250 it is light years below both Apple and Samsung price points.......Thus for the first time I am considering an investment in Tesla. What does 5i think of doing that solely based on this new product ? .... And is Tesla the company that owns the product or is it another of Elon's companies ? ....... Thanks for your terrific service ......

What happens to a GIC behind the scenes. Is it correct to think of a GIC as lending money to the financial institution with the CDIC insurance? (Basically a bond with insurance?)

Q: What would you consider to be an ideal entry point for Dollarama Inc. at this time? Thank You

Q: Enphase has had a tough year, and taken a nose dive from it highs; this year its been overly volatile, and much of that on a downward turn, with minimal rebounds. You have commented that growth is expected over the next few years. Is this then a good candidate for some loss harvesting and a re-buy, or does the conintued risk lean towards saying a final farewell? Thanks. Chris

Q: Could you please comment on ISRG earnings and your opinion on the outlook moving forward?

Q: BMO is getting back up to its 52 week high. However, it has been in this range twice before in this year and then they announce their quarterly results and the stock drops 10%. They will be announcing their results in about 4 weeks. Is it time to reduce my exposure to see what happens with the results?

Q: Hi,

Can you please confirm the FY24 and FY25 consensus EPS as seen on your Key Ratios company page for WELL. It seems the EPS is forecast to drop approx 40%.... .17 cents vs .12 cents respectively which does not seem very enticing. Although many of the other key ratios do look attractive so I wonder what is keeping this stock from performing better?
I have owned WELL for awhile now (marginally ahead) but my patience is growing thin and was thinking of splitting some of the proceeds (if I sell) towards Vitalhub and/or Kneat (which are both now close to their 52 week highs vs WELL) as part of my small cap health exposure. I took part in a DKAM update yesterday and they have VHI and KSI as part of their top 10 stocks for 2025 and I have followed some of their recommendations for years and done very well.
Just curious what your favourite is of these 3 health stocks. In the past you have suggested all 3 as favourable at various times but I know acquisitions etc can move some stocks ahead of others and all have made recent headlines.

Cheers,
SMc

Q: I've been considering buying TVK for some time. One of the things holding me back is the potential of a Trump victory and the subsequent imposition of 20% across the board import tarrifs. Given the resource industries that TVK supports, what impact on share price would you predict such tarrifs would have? Would you suggest prospective buyers of TVK wait until after the election to wade in?

Q: Can I please have your view on GPAC?
