Investment Q&A

Q: Could you please give me your outlook on this company
Have held it in a TFSA for years is it worth keeping. Suggestions?
Thank you

Q: Does the quarterly report change anything, slow and steady as she goes?

Q: I see that the company recently announced another div increase -good news but the bump has quickly worn off. Earnings are still good and P/E now below 10. What is the catalyst to get the stock off the mat?

Q: Thank you for your earlier response. This is a follow up question to that response. Should your free cash flow numbers be multiplied by 1.35 since results for SPB are quoted in US dollars and the share price of $7.94 is in Canadian dollars? Then full-year 2025 FCF yield would be approximately 14.8%. Am I correct or am I making mistake? If I am correct, what do you think of this free cash flow yield?

Q: Greetings,


1. Am I correct in noticing that TOU has been range bound between $56 - $69 for about 4 years?

2. Based on cash payout ratio - Are dividend payments sustainable?

3. Regardless of my concerns, Michael Rose (CEO) has been a solid insider buyer over the last two months.


4. Is TOU more of an income stock or is something very positive about to happen to the growth aspect?

5. What price would be a fair entry price?

6. What price would be a fair exit price?


Cheers!

Q: Peter; Would you consider starting a “ model portfolio” type similar to your original ones, but constructed of those Canadian companies which will benefit from the new spending announced by Carney in defence, etc. ? Thanks.

Q: Would you be comfortable buying IAG today?

Q: I was disappointed with the reaction to the release of the year end results for B2Gold. Since I started accumulating BTO in the summer of 2024 I have some very solid gains with BTO but not nearly as good as I have had with Alamos, K92, Gmining, centera gold. alkane, and even Agnico Eagle. That is my story but more importantly this my question. Was it the 2025 results that disappointed (Because they did not look that bad to me except that the new Goose Mine is ramping up slower than projections.) or is it the guidance for 2026? I think it is the weak guidance. But one thing that a casual observer might not know about BTO is that they have been getting much lower prices for their gold because of a prepay arrangement with I believe is with Tripple Flag. BUT that prepay will be over at the end of June (please confirm that) and then BTO can get the full price for all of their gold sales for the second half of 2026. I think BTO only got about $3300 on ounce in the last quarter of 2025 while Alkane realized $5200 (perhaps that was in $AUS since I only glanced at the press release). That is a huge difference. So even if BTO produces fewer ounces in 2026, due to the Namibia mine ramping down, the profitability of BTO in the second half of 2026 may be strong due to higher realized gold prices for ALL of the ounces produced in the 2half of 2026. Am I looking at this possibility correctly or am I missing a critical piece of the financial puzzle of BTO?

Q: In reviewing your answers to various questions on these two you seem fairly agnostic? I note that SU has been growing their dividend at a pretty good clip over the past 5 years. Is there anything that tilts the decision for a 10+ year hold either in terms of differences in risk or opportunity, or truly a coin flip? Thanks,

Q: I'm in the process of using RIF withdrawals to augment a TFSA.
I have BIP, BEP and DIR as possible candidates to switch.

I'd appreciate your view on which stock has the most upside potential?

Q: So many members ask questions where they ask you to rank a number of companies which they suggest. Let me change that up a. bit. Please rank the top 10 Canadian companies that YOU think have the best chance of yielding the highest returns for 5i members In 2026. Perhaps an unfair question but I"m curious.

This was a question asked earlier which seems quite popular. Can I ask the same question for US stocks
Thanks

Q: What’s your opinion on the results just released? Is it a decent place to park a few bucks ? Is it decent value ?

Q: Given the strong recent performance of the MSCI Emerging Markets Index relative to the MSCI World Index (42.8% vs. 19.6% for the year ending Jan. 31), could you recommend appropriate ETFs that track each index?

I would also value your views on the forward outlook for emerging markets versus developed markets and whether current conditions support adjusting exposure between the two.

Q: Hi gang, what is your take on copart,s quarter?

Q: I am baffled by the decline here since announcing a dividend increase Feb11. It is down 15% + since. Why? No eps till Mar 2. Surely they would not raise it if the results were going to be less than expected. Your thoughts. Thanks

Q: GRGD been on a tear lately.

Any reason?


Thanks

Q: Any hope for either these 2 stocks, they've certainly been taken down?

Thnx 5I

Q: Looking at adding to 2 areas - stocks that might benefit from increased defense spending in Canada, and stocks in the metals sector. How would you rate these stocks on a scale of 1 to 10 for a buy at this time? 10 being something you like a lot, 5 if you are indifferent, and 1 if you have zero interest in owning it. ARIS, CS, HBM, OGC, PAAS, SVM for metals and CGY, FTG, MDA, PNG for defense related.

Q: Please comment on Fairfax earnings. Thanks

Q: Could you comment on SPB's most recent quarter? Based on the last year results, what is this company's free cash flow yield
