Investment Q&A

Q: Hi team,

I am trying to pick a 2 or 3 small/mid-caps for strong growth for at least 5 years. What are your views on the stocks above ? Do they fit the bill ? What is the risk factor ? Any better suggestions ?

Gratefully,

Jacques IDS

Q: Lennox or Trane for 3-5 year hold

Q: It seems to me that one one of the major themes going forward that we as investors must pay attention to is on-shoring or the re-industrialization of the United States and the western world. Please share with me some of the global and Canadian companies that should benefit if this trend continues. I'm interested in both individual companies and ETFs.

Q: Hi 5i,

In some jurisdictions in British Columbia all new homes being built cannot use gas for heating and cannot use gas appliances for cooking.

Also in BC there is a new program allowing low and middle income earners to replace their gas and oil furnaces with heat pumps for virtually no cost to the homeowner.

There seems to be a small but growing segment that is going in this direction. Are there any companies (Canadian or U.S. or even International)that specialize in heat pumps (manufacturing, installation, and/or maintenance) that you would recommend as an investment at this time?

Would Trane or Honeywell fit this description?

If there are any, could you please rank them in order of preference on a scale of 1 to 10?

Thanks.

Q: My I please have your thoughts on the Lennox quarterly release?
Do you feel that after the jump in price today that it is still a good entry point for long term investment?
Any other thoughts/comments on the company would be appreciated.
Thanks.

Q: With regards to the shift in consumer thinking related to moving away from using fossil fuels for home heating/cooling, are there any companies that would stand to benefit from the shift towards heat pumps?

Trane and Honeywell come to mind but are they actually good companies for investors? The 3 to 5 year charts show them as being somewhat rangebound.

Are there perhaps other companies? Or companies that supply the parts for the heat pumps?

Thanks!

Q: With an increase in air filtration and virus filtration for subways, planes and private homes, what companies do you recommend?

Q: I just replaced a furnace fully aware that I was probably paying more for the name “Lennox” . Carrier is part of a conglomerate, but Lennox seems to be its own name... I see that it typically advances in Q4 ... nobody talks about it / would this be a decent company to invest in ?
