Investment Q&A

Q: I have been considering increasing my position since the beginning of September. Coincidentally, this is when WELL price jumped a few times. I have been waiting for a pullback (6$ was my target), but this never happened.

Argument to increase a position at this time:
1) Valuation reaching 1 bln $ - this may attract big institutional investors.
2) The stock help up well during the recent sell off, meaning strong sentiment.
3) Shareholder meeting approaching, and an announcement combined with a positive news may move the price even higher.

Arguments against:
1) Valuation
2) Potential volatility

Can you comment on the valuation for this stock? How does it compare to stock with similar risk profiles (growing small-caps)? Does the premium justify prospects in your opinion? Do you agree with my arguments, and would you add anything to my summary? Thanks for your service.

Q: What are your thoughts about this company ? Thanks.

Q: Hi Peter,
1.I don't have CSU. What would be your suggestion - Should i buy now or wait for Topicus to come into play?
2. Cash account/TFSA/RESP/RRSP?

Q: I see both Peter and Ryan are presenting at the Moneyshow. If we can't make the live stream, will a replay be available?

Q: In several of your answers concerning stocks that have good recovery potential you suggest 'industrials'. What would be your top industrial picks?

Q: I've encountered, in less than a week, no less than four articles in various media, predicting that the US dollar is going to 'crash' in 2021 with suggestions it could drop 35%-50% in the coming year. This one on CNBC is an example. https://www.cnbc.com/2020/09/23/us-faces-dollar-crash-high-double-dip-recession-odds-stephen-roach.html

Obviously this would be disastrous to anyone with US dollar holdings or stocks in US accounts. What do you think of this? I know you're generally against hedged ETFs but do you think that might be a decent idea now for those wanting to hold US stocks?

Q: Could you please offer some guidelines on how to execute an averaging up strategy, ie when to initiate, pyramidal buying ratios, stop losses, etc.
Thanks in advance!

Q: When taxpayers start paying in 2021 and beyond, for all the gov't covid-19 relief programs, will it be in the form of higher income tax brackets, or a return to a 75% inclusion rate on capital gains tax?
Is there a Federal budget coming this fall?

Q: Three questions please,
1 - ONEX - BUY, SELL OR HOLD FOR INCOME.
2 - FSZ - IS THIS DIVIDEND SAFE FOR THE NEXT FEW YEARS. DO YOU SEE ANY GROWTH.
3 - CU - YOUR THOUGHTS ON THIS DIVIDEND KING.

Q: Hello
I have an 18% gain in BEP.UN in a non registered account. I received the spin out shares in BEPC. Is there any tax advantage in selling the BEP.UN shares and buying the equivalent BEPC shares? Meaning, despite the cap tax gain hit, will the future taxation in BEPC be more advantageous over BEP.UN?

Also I recently bought GOOG C shares maybe by mistake. Is there any advantage to sell them and buy the A shares instead?

Thanks
2 deductions if you see fit.

Q: Hello,
Over the years, I've accumulated a significant amount of BIP.UN in an RRSP account, with the intention of holding it for the income generated over the long term. Since the Mar 31 split, shares of BIPC are up around 50% while BIP.UN is up around 28%.

Does it make sense to cash in this gain, sell the BIPC and use the proceeds to buy BIP.UN, thus adding some "extra" income generating units? Would also make tracking a little simpler.

Any other factors to consider?

Thanks for your time,
Roman

Q: Retired, dividend income investor. Currently own AQN, FTS and TRP. If I wanted to add a 4th name (with a focus on renewables), what would you recommend? It would be mostly in a taxable account, with possibly some in a TFSA account. Or if AQN and FTS are enough names, should I just add funds to them? If AQN-FTS are not enough names, would you consider BEPC or BIPC? I like utilizing the dividend tax credit.
Thanks for your help...Steve

Q: Thanks for responding to my question earlier, but it was misinterepreted.

I wanted to know if 5i has sent out any emails with model portfolio changes in them.. The last change I received was selling all of ET.

Anything after that?

Q: My question is about A2 Milk our of Australia/New Zealand but also trades on the Pink sheets. Are you seeing any reason for the 10%+ drop this morning? Looking at the fundamentals would you hold ACOPF? Thanks

Q: Would you have any ETF or Mutual fund that compare to this Vanguard US Growth fund investor Shares (VWUSX). It seems that Vanguard does not sell this fund in Canada, Thanks

Q: Hi 5i Team - I am interested in purchasing shares in a company called Bellevue Gold which trades on the Australian exchange under the symbol BGL.AX. It also trades on the OTC pink sheets in the U.S. Since my accounts with TD are self-directed I would probably need to make the purchase through the U.S. OTC exchange. Do you have any concerns with using this exchange? Secondly, even though this would be a company very distant from your radar screen, would you be able to supply any financial fundamentals as well as an update on their exploration progress. Thanks.

Q: Good morning;
Do you think that WELL is following the business model of Constellation Software by becoming a roll up acquirer of companies in the telehealth sector or are they positioning themselves to be a take over target. Thank you.
