Q: Hello 5i Research team, not a question, more as a follow-up to your response to Sheldon's question earlier today about Park Lawn: I would like to mention that I believe a major factor that has allowed funeral homes to perform well in 2020 and 2021 is the COVID surcharge ($500+) imposed at each funeral in many jurisdictions for the additional sanitation measures required due to the pandemic. The profit margin on this surcharge seems to be quite generous in my opinion... Publish if you think this information can be useful. Thank you for your collaboration, Eric

Q: Hello Peter & Team,

MG is showing a P/E of 16.85 yet the PEG is a -2.64 meaning that the company is losing money or that the estimated growth rate for future earnings is negative, indicating that the earnings of the company are expected to decrease in the future. Have I read this/interpreted this correctly? And if so, is MG a company we should be staying a clear of right now? Or do I have this all wrong?

Thanks for all you do

Q: I have TTD, PLTR, NVDA, PLTR, NVDA, CRWD, APPS, UCTT, CELH, AFRM, MTTR, UPST, VEEV, in my US account, and LSPD, SHOP, EGLX, TIXT in my Canadian (and holdings in other sectors, but these are the holdings in question). I don't need to sell anything, but don't have new funds to deploy in the low market. I had a lot of positions in tech going in and already thinking about consolidating the sector when the market turned. I wonder if you see anything that should be sold, and added to something else to maximize growth when the market turns good again, or if it is better not to shuffle at this point.

Q: I get that this drop and volatility is a bit multi faceted but it seems centred around rates and QE easing. So hitting tech and growth stocks makes sense but I just can't figure out why something like RUS is getting hit so hard. Any thoughts? EAF is in the same boat but its always been a bit more volatile.

Q: Hi Peter & Team,

It may be my imagination, but I seem to remember reading somewhere - in the Questions section, I think -that 5i has a tool to help us calculate the ACB of our holdings. Please tell me it's not wishful thinking....

Thanks for all your help.

Molly

Q: I invested in this a few months ago for a number of reasons. It is a renewable energy investment, 5i gave it an 'A' rating and it pays a good dividend. It is down 18% since purchase.
The current dip in the market presents buying opportunities. Would you recommend adding to my current position of BEP.UN or simply holding what I have?
