Investment Q&A

Q: Hi 5i,

Would appreciate you thoughts on DND's current prospects.

Given all the negative news surrounding the company, does it make sense to continue to hold on to the potential chance that the company will be bought out and taken private?

Otherwise will most likely sell before year end to take advantage of the tax loss.

Appreciate the service as always.

Thanks,

Greg C.

Q: Looking to reduce holding size after very favourable gains. What 3 or 4 names in the US would you consider for re deployment? (I hold NBIS already). Thanks.

Q: Is there anything besides huge gains this year and therefore an expected volatility behind the slide from 43 to 34?
What is your take on this company TODAY?

Q: Hi 5i team,

I am interested in WaterBridge Infrastructure LLC's (WBI) recent IPO and its unique business model within the Permian Basin water management sector. I would appreciate your insights on the following aspects regarding WBI’s long-term growth prospects and its capital-light strategy in the energy infrastructure sector:

1. How do you assess the sustainability of WBI’s margins and cash flow profile, especially considering the long-term, CPI-linked contracts and the increasing scarcity of pore space for water disposal in the Permian Basin?

2. What is WBI’s competitive position as the industry shifts from in-house management of water infrastructure by exploration and production (E&P) companies to outsourcing?

3. What are the key risks and potential inflection points related to state regulatory changes, environmental liabilities, or technological advancements in produced water reuse or disposal (such as desalination for beneficial reuse)?

4. How does WBI compare to other listed midstream alternatives in terms of attractiveness, especially from the perspective of Canadian investors seeking exposure to this mid-cap, high-margin segment in the US? What are the risk/reward considerations?

Thank you for your insights!

Best,
Matt

Q: Hi, I'd like to add more gold/silver to my mix. I currently own THX, AUGO, and DSV. I am now considering adding APM and TDG. Before i do that, are there any other growth oriented precious metals that i should consider instead (dividends are optional bonus) ? thank you very much !

Q: Hello 5i team,
I hold a concentrated stock portfolio. If I was to start buying ETF's; which 5 or 6 would you recommend me buying slowly over the next few years that will give me a diversified portfolio. Five or six ETF's that I can continue to dollar cost average into over the next 5 years.
Thank you,
Brent

Q: Good Morning 5i Team,

In my TFSA I have some cash parked from the sale of some equities. I'm looking to move this cash into a few grow potential stocks, with a growth horizon of 5 years +. I do have a decent risk tolerance. With this in mind, what would be the 3-5 companies I should be researching?

Q: If LMN was sold what stock would you replace this one with?

Thanks

Q: Hello 5i
In the early part of September, the stock shot up. Now it seems to be sinking back down. Is there any reason for these movements? Could you please suggest a good entry point to buy.
You continually give great advice. Thank you so much!

Q: What do you folks think of the proposal to cut back required financial reporting by public companies from quarterly to semiannually.

Q: Why is SRAD's price slipping? In the past you have recommended the stock and, at one point, I was up 30%. Now up only 12% and dropping. Do I hang on or quit while I'm ahead? What needs to happen for this negative trend to reverse itself? Thank you.

Q: Hi,
I want to buy Healthcare stocks.
Can you please recommend in order of preference a top 10 mix of Canadian and USD names. Can you also add a growth/risk rating 1 to 10 with 10 being highest growth and 10 being highest risk.
Thanks

Q: I currently have a 3.5% position in HOOD. I am considering a small position in GLXY - say 1.5% - bringing my total exposure to 5%. Being mindful of crypto's volatility, in your view, is a 5% exposure here too high?

Q: GENI/SRAD Taking a bit of a hit today. Still up huge on the year obviously but is this decline a buying opportunity for someone looking to build a full position? What news or factors have created this decline?

Q: And another question for the team. What are your recommendations for cyber security stocks and etf's. I have no holding in such.

Q: Any idea about why it’s been so strongly last month or so? I take it you still think this is a buy even after recent gains. Thanks.

Q: I am in the process of sending my daughter funds to start a TFSA. She deals with Royal Bank. Can you suggest what is best for her to start. Mawer Mutual Funds or GIC's, or? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you Gordo

Q: Hello,

I focus mainly on the balanced portfolio, but own stocks from each of the other 2 portfolios. Could you list and rank the top 3 or 4 from each on attractiveness to buy now.

Thank you

Q: Please comment on their recent quarterly earnings and the outlook for this company.

Q: Hello 5i,
New to portfolio analytics, can’t say enough about this team! Bravo.

Circumstances forced me to shuffle financially this past year.
43, pension, rentals. 55 freedom or forget it.

Highest conviction, growth, maj; tech, leaning themes to the next decade, a sprinkle of sector diversity, large/mid/small caps, predominantly US. I’m aware of course of all the caveats here lol. A 12-15 starter pack would be fabulous.

This is you starting today; You have 300k.
I do add 700 per week, please exclude
BN, TRI, ISRG, COST, HIMS, NBIS, NVDA, BKSY.

Eagerly waiting! Thank you.
