Investment Q&A

Q: My question is regarding Shopify being down today almost 5% with 6 days to earnings call. The following stocks are in my TFSA, and wondering if you’d consider trimming parts of this portfolio to add to SHOP in a potential great buying opportunity if it keeps dropping post earnings call?

Would you add to another “power house” like NVDA instead ?

Thanks for your insight!

Q: Good Morning 5i, What would be your allocation % to the 11Sectors? Thanks

Q: Hi all @ 5i,

I recently change job and I need to transfer my work/pension (200K$) into myself manage account. I have been self-trading for 1+ year now and manage to make 22% on my stock YOY on a small investment(TFSA 20k$). I am looking to put 100K$ in the 5i GROWTH portfolio but wonder how to organize my purchase of stock to get the best results possible. (I will be keeping this for 15+ years in my RRSP so my investment perspective is long term). Should I simply split 100k in the number of stocks in the GROWTH portfolio and round up to the next numbers of share or looking to a more dynamic approach since some of those stocks are more matures since inceptions…

For the second half of my investment, I was looking into putting them in to EFT and was wondering if you had favorite from a US perspective (since I can get the pulse on the Canadian one here already)

Any help and guidance would be appreciated,

Thanks

Fred

Q: I was wondering what your current assessment of STC would be? Since its major acquisition it shot hire and has steadily drifted down (still up YTD and year over year I realize). I am assuming it has to do with investors wanting to see a few quarters post-merger and possibly a lack of news? Am I missing something?

The price is now nearing where it was pre-merger. Could the current price be under-valued and a good position to add, or would you want to wait for a quarterly report or two to see how the merger shakes out?

Q: Hi Guys
I have owned Onex for quite a time but it is quite a bit of it's long time high of $100 and really languished this last year. I know the Westjet picture (small part of them really) and their time frame is long but even selling of some of their investments has not really done anything to Onex's stock price. I am wondering of swapping Onex out for Alaris given they both invest into private companies, or own them. The dividend would be nice too, although not really the main reason I would switch. Looking out 5 years and total return, which would you own?

Thanks so much

Q: Hi,

What happened in 2019 that caused EGLX to drop so dramatically? Has that reason now been addressed in your mind?

Q: PYR is down 38%in the last moth, I'm still up 45% , JD does not seem to be going anywhere ? OKTA I am up over 100% and thinking of selling and taking the profit. These next ones, I'm simply down on: APPN -38%, WPRT -40%, QST - 38%, PAT -72%, AT -51%, PLTR -38%. What would you do ? Buy, Sell or Hold. Thanks.

Q: I am a retiree with 14% financial sector exposure in banks (TD,BNS,RY) and insurance companies (MFC, SLF, BRK.B). I have been a long term holder (10+) of MFC and currently have a half position. Been happy with the dividend but very disappointed with share appreciation (still underwater). Would it make sense to sell MFC and purchase GSY for share appreciation and dividend growth?

Q: What is your outlook for PRN? Is this a buy at current levels or do you see better opportunities in this area?
