Q: Hello 5i
I’ve owned LHX for almost two years. I’m getting impatient and wondering if you would endorse a move to TT for more growth? Or any others in the same space.
Thank you
Dave

Q: Not sure if my question was sent a moment ago so will repeat.
I tried to buy this recently at $47.00 but missed out as it rose quickly to $80.00 . Today it is back down almost to my desired price. What caused this equally rapid price reversal ? Would you buy today if it hits $47.00 again or pass?
Always appreciate your advice.

Q: I am trying to look under the hood of the Emerge ark etfs(EAGB,EARK,EAAI,EAUT,EAFT) and I am finding it tough to analyze all of the companies that these etfs hold. In your opinion which one of those five etfs would best represent the combination of all five. Tnx for your great work.

Q: Hi team,
Grateful for your views on these two stocks.
BJ seems a good competitor to Costco, more risky, more growth ? Is it likely that SONOS be an acquisition target for GOOG, AMZN, or AAPL ?

Best greetings for the season,

JD IDS

Q: In my RRIF I need a Communications service sector. In my PA you suggested VOX, but I am wondering if there is a Canadian ETF in this sector that you could recommend?
Also an alternative is XGD.TO okay to invest in a RRIF?
Thanks.

Q: I have room to add one of these to my TFSA now and another in January. I see 2 of these are in your model portfolios. In what order would you purchase these 3 or am I getting too picky ? SCORE had a huge recent run up; would you wait for it to settle down. I like it’s theme and strong insider ownership Thanks

Q: How would you rate Mullen's risk/reward proposition based on past performance, its new business plan and dividend increase? Is this a good entry point? If not, can you suggest safer bets in the trucking industry?

Q: Your thoughts on:
1. Stock Rover versus any other of your suggestions for stock & portfolio tracking sites/businesses (that include tracking Canadian stocks (e.g. TSE) stocks)?
2. How secure is it to have these companies (e.g. stock rover) track our individual portfolios? They are gathering such personal financial information on us that i imagine other third parties would love to get their hands on- How much risk of our data ($ personal holdings/worth) being shared, or not so much?

Q: Hello 5i Team
I am calculating 3, 5, 10 and 20 year compound annual growth (CAG) rates for dividends for select companies.
The questions I have are:
1 – Are CAG rates calculated for the company fiscal years (i.e. the Canadian Banks fiscal year ends October 31) or the calendar year (December 31)?
2 – Are CAG rates calculated for the dividend declaration date, record date or payment date? For some companies the payment date is after their fiscal year ends (i.e. CNQ with a year end of December 31 and the fourth quarter payment date is January 01 of the following year).
3 – Do you know what Bloomberg/Eikon/TSX use in their calculations?
Thanks
