Investment Q&A

Q: Hi 5i Team - I am ready to sell Mission Ready but when selling a losing stock I prefer to replace it quickly with a similar company, in this case not necessarily in the same sector but with a similar market cap along with with better fundamentals and better growth profile. What would be your suggestion(s) be for a replacement. Thanks.

Q: What would be a good replacement for Martello. You had some suggestions a while ago but am just looking for a couple of up-to-date ideas given the recent market volatility. Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i,

as of Dec. 2, 2021, ATVI price is approx. $57 and down approx. 44% from it's 1 year high. This company definitely has issues. In your opinion does this current price represent an excellent risk/reward entry point for an investor wishing to hold for at least 3 years in a TFSA? If not, what approx. price would entice you to buy this beaten down stock?

thanks

Q: In light of the meltdown (ie- LSPD, WELL, AT, XBC, etc...) what 1 company would be most attractive for you to buy over the next couple of weeks?

Q: A comment, not a question:

Brett asked you a question on 2 DEC 2021 regarding buying US shares in his TFSA --> whether to first purchase USD and buy US stocks in a USD TFSA account or simply buy US stocks using CDN dollars in his (presumably) CDN TFSA account.

My experience in buying US stocks with CDN dollars in a CDN TFSA account is that in the event of a sale of the US stocks, my online brokerage (CIBC's Investors Edge) automatically converted the sale proceeds into CDN dollars. Which I didn't necessarily want done, but I wasn't given a say. Ultimately, I opened a US banking account to transfer USD into my US TFSA account. Sale proceeds of US stocks are kept in USD and I am free to convert back into CDN dollars. Or not. Which I prefer to the alternative.

I hope my experience helps Brett and others.

Q: Which of these two do you like better for Value, Growth and upside potential(and what ever other criteria you would apply) over the next 2-5yrs?

Q: How would you rank these at current prices?

Q: The following are drawdowns from ATH:
STNE -85%, PTON -75%, TDOC -70%, FOOD -70%, FVRR -60%, PLTR -60%, UPST -60%, ZM -60%, PINS %60, CDON -50%, APPS -50%, SINCH -45%, SNAP -45%, EVO -45%, MELI -45%, UPWK -45%, ESTC -40%, PYPL -40%, TWLO -40%, SQ -35%, SE -30%, VEEV -30%, MTCH -30%, DOCU -30%.
I would like you to guess on which names will get back to their ATH and which names will never recover.
Thanks

Q: Hi, between these 2 unloved stocks, which one would you prefer over a 2-3 years period (I’m no teen!). Don’t need revenue but OK in TFSA for example.

Q: Which would be the best investment today for a long term buy and hold? Please rank. Thank-you.

Q: What are your thought about Asana's earnings report. Do you expect that it will become profitable. My position shows a good gain. Should I keep holding or is it better to exit and put the money elsewhere.

Q: Hi, I was wondering what you would suggest for additions to an RESP which currently holds VGG
and GSY. Long term hold, moderate risk ok.
Two or three top recommendations please, and Thanks for your excellent service! Thanks, Lavern

Q: Can you share a your insights on Nanoxplore's recent financials? I am a little surprised the company didn't issue equity when it touched $9 to shore up its funding. Do you see any red flags in their financials or positive or negative trends?

Thanks so much.

John

Q: Good Morning Peter & Team,

There's been some discussion on 5i re CJT. Demand is up but labor & fuel inflation is causing costs to go up as well. Today it's approaching a 16 month low at $164. Never want to try and catch a falling knife however, price target is $250. Is this a good pick with on-line/Amazon shopping volume continuing to show signs of increasing? Or do you have an alternative which might be a better choice to take advantage of this trend? Besides AMZN ofcourse which I already have.

Thanks for all you do

Q: Greetings:
As always it is known that you are not tax consultants, but please tell me what you know about a Section 51 election, and when it might be best to make use of it, as well as what CRA form number would be required?

Thank You,
BEN.

Q: Hi there, I am under water on this one - what a dramatic fall. Can I have your thoughts on this one. Thanks.

Q: Please help me understand:
TD has announced a) share repurchase intention for 2022, and b) the Jan 31 2022 dividend DRIP shares will be issued from treasury.
These two would seem to be at odds with each other (despite the, presumably, much smaller quantum of the DRIP treasury shares relative to the repurchase plan)?

Q: My 20 year old grandson is about to step into the investing world. His plan is long term but his portfolio will be small to start. Can you suggest a starting point? I can teach him all the lessons you have taught me since 2013 but we just need a starting point.

Q: Oh BYD! BYD has been beaten up a bit lately. Are you still believer or is the pretty good run over...
