Q: Hi,
This is a hypothetical question, but out of the four stocks listed, which one would you consider that has the potential to be the next Shopify, or is there another that I have not listed?

Thanks

Q: Dear 5i
Between my wife and i , we have 3 RRSP and 2 TFSA accounts and 1 unregistered account .
In terms of stock picking for each account how would you go about choosing your stocks based on having 6 different accounts ?
For example i`d like to own 1-2 utility stocks per account and maybe 1 bank stock per account . Would you say that i`d be better picking a different bank / utility stock for each account OR just pick the 1 or 2 of the best stocks per category and have the same "best " stocks in each account ?
Thanks

Q: Engh had a news release today -
"Videoconferencing solutions provider sees 1349% pandemic-led surge in mobile usage, WebRTC implementation and brings on veteran SVP"
The VIDYO segment was noted as a driver of earnings in their last Q, my question then could this news imply the coming Q numbers will continue to rise based on this area of growth? Is this a buy signal?

Thank you.

Q: Hello 5i team,
In a November 16th answer, you mentioned GSY, PHO, GH and QTRH as potential go private companies. What would make them « ripe » (ready) to be bought? What characteristics (size? Slowing growth?) would help to know that a go private transaction might happen let’s say in the next year? I am surprised you included GSY (starting soon auto financing) and PHO (some new management recently) on your short list as they seem to still have growth avenues and no financing problems.
Thank you for your collaboration, Eric

Q: Hi, Boeing stock has seen a nice rebound recently with positive vaccine news and improving prospects of travel industry. The FAA also cleared 737Max, today. With investors' growing interest in companies which benefit from opening of economy, I wonder if Boeing could slowly regain its blue-chip valuation over 12-24 months. What's your view on this stock, its valuation and outlook ? Thanks

Q: With Airbnb's YoY growth on a downward trajectory, without the pandemic, how does this ipo look?

Also can you explain how it is not profitable yet? I find it hard to imagine an aggregator offering to rent a room in your house can have such high costs when it has so little obvious capital expenditures.

Thank you
