Thoughts and would you add here ?

Thanks

Q: Looking at adding to my holdings on the pullback. Would you, or would you wait until maybe $105?

Thanks

Q: Tenaz was a top pick this week on BNN Market Call and Bruce Campbell made some compelling argument. I see three past 5i responses to members questions spaced about a year apart that all seemed generally favourable with the small cap/commodity cyclicality risk noted. Since the last of those comments was about a year ago, can I ask for the annual update? (I note the stock popped about 5% at the time of broadcast). Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i. I'm looking for income not growth and noticed SGR Dividend is above 8%. Please comment on your opinion of the sustainability of the company and the dividend.

Thanks 5i guys.
Ken

Q: Would you give me your updated thoughts on Vizsla Silver please. Aside from commodity price risk, how would you rate them for upside and other risks? Thank you.

Q: Hi 5i, Based on portfolio analytics I am underweight consumer defensive and overweight industrials. I'm thinking of selling my CP and buying DOL for a long term hold. CP has been a laggard in my portfolio over the past four years. I realize DOL is expensive and earnings are next week. Would appreciate your thoughts on this switch. Thanks

Q: There are two questions here, the first relates to the abandonment of science, a policy issue. I note that HHL has recovered significantly and reportedly follows the prospects of leaders in medical science, in which Crisper also participates, that issue is now lagging and down. While this appears to be an extraordinarily cruel hit to an essential industry, question I have - is there a reason which might be ordinarily attributed to each of these related issues, and how do you perceive the outcome?



The second question relates to the price of Lithium. It is my understanding that China has closed a major supplier of Lithium and that this briefly sent the price soaring. It is my guess that this has occurred because salt has replaced Lithium as an energy storage mechanism for major - grid related - energy storage facilities, despite its lower energy density and because of its availability and cost to produce, but that Lithium is expected to be used in cars, bikes, and hand held devices because of its higher energy density/ capacity. Does this coincide with your view of the lithium industry's prospects and do you have an opinion for the trajectory for the price of Lithium?

Q: for a 5 year hold what are your favorite 5 stocks to purchase at the current price level

Q: Canada's interest rate has dropped, and bank GIC and HISA rates have followed suit. The ZLC BMO Long Corporate Bond ETF is offering a 4.83% return. Can this investment completely replace my HISA or GIC? I've previously invested a significant amount in ZLC, and with the recent dip in price, I'm considering continuing to buy more to replace my GIC and HISA ETF. I suspect this might be the last opportunity to buy bonds at a low price. I'd appreciate your insights. Thanks.

Q: I am mostly content with my health care stocks with the exception of MDT. It has been essentially flat since about 2016 except for the dividend. It did peak around 2022 but has fallen down to previous levels.
What do you think of the longer term for MDT?
Would you make any other changes for slow but reliable growth and higher end of dividends.
As always, thank you for the great service.

Q: Hi there, what would be the best risk to reward AI play on the TSX? Would it be CLS? If not CLS, what name would it be? And could you maybe provide a few names that you have conviction in, in order? Thank you!

Q: Would you agree that an investor has to buy things that are speculative in order to find multi baggers early on? People who were early to the AI market likely had several go to zero and don't care if they hit on Nvidia as an example. I'm asking because I know that Google is in the Quantum field but should an investor consider a basket of stocks like IONQ, D-Wave, Quantum Emotion and BTQ knowing that some will be worthless and some may sky rocket? If an investor was willing to effectively gamble on $10,000 would you concentrate your bet or spread it around? Lastly, which are your three best bets among those I listed?

Thanks

Q: I have substantial units of DIR.UN and I am wondering when the $10.80 USD ($15.01 CD) take over by Morgan Properties would be reflected in the CDN price of the units?
As of this writing the price of DIR is only $12.29 CD?
I don't want to sell if the price will come up. Usually the acquired company's unit price goes up and the acquirer's goes down? Thoughts. Thanks. Bill

Q: Could you please supply your analysis of Kraken Robotics reported this morning. Buy sell or hold.

Thanks Dave

Q: The dynamic of how business operates in the US has continued to change and there are now new creative
few structures being charged for international
business, most notably this week to American chip manufacturers for exporting to China. To what degree do you see potential for Canadian companies to be hamstrung for US operations in new creative ‘pay-to-play’ ways? It seems increasingly possible that anything is possible, especially where it doesn’t directly impact the US voter base.

Q: Can you evaluate EU's recent senior notes offeing and the market dip on the common shares?

Q: ARX ,good entry point ? general comments and opinion ,many thanks

Q: Hi Peter and 5i Team,

I need to raise some cash and plan to sell/reduce in a non-registered account to accomplish this. Of the stocks and ETFs addressed in this question, please rank them in the order that YOU would sell/reduce, starting with the ones to sell/reduce first. If any holdings are an outright sell, please indicate. For example, we've held BYD for a long time and have a decent gain, but it's short-term performance has faltered somewhat.

As always, thanks for your insight.

Q: The first questions on PLTR appear in October 2020. At that time the response in general terms could be characterized as “we like it but it is expensive, there is sole party risk…take a small position”. The latest response is quite similar but of course the company is much more widely held.
Today the stock dropped at opening by 5% on high volume, likely some panic selling. By 2pm the stock is down by 2% so it’s climbing up off it’s lows.
My question: has the risk factor on PLTR increased since Oct 2020?
If I have mis-characterized 5i’s position please do not hesitate to correct me.
I do not own the stock but am mulling it over even though the AI sector seems to be weak.
One follow-up question: If NVDA reports good numbers will it raise all AI stocks?
Thanks,
Jim
