Investment Q&A

Q: Hi 5i,
Reuters reported that WMT has reached a deal with PARA where WMT offers a PARA plus subscription to its WMT plus members. This is certainly beneficial to WMT members as they get a streaming service for no extra charge. PARA has been languishing for some time, with all the other streamers. Do you see any financial benefits to PARA from this deal any potential boost to its prospects in the streaming wars?
Thanks.

Q: I was thinking of selling my holdings in Paychex based on short term price target upside and purchasing CAE which seems to be selling at a discount with recent insider buying by Elise Eberwein one of their newly appointed directors. Your thoughts on this? And how much stake do you put into seasonal investing? What do you think of the people and website running equityclock?

Q: What's up with these guys? Decent growth and they are almost sinking to the 52 week low

Q: What did you think of q2 results and valuation going forward. Thanks

Q: I would like your analysis of this Swiss fashion play. I understand they have high growth and price has corrected in half. When are they expecting profits?

Q: Can you please comment on Tantalus' earnings? Has your outlooked improved or changed since your last comments. And based on Peter's Five winning traits for small/mid cap companies how does Tantalus rate on "Management", "Sponsorship", I know EDC(Export Development Canada) is involved with them somehow but not sure in what way(would you guys have access to that info?) and that Pendergrowth owns shares, "New and Big market opportunity" there are lots of utilities to upgrade is GRID best positioned to do this?, Is their BALANCE SHEET improving? and lastly they have limited PROMOTION which Peter likes. As you can see I have lots of questions on this particular company, looking forward to your take.

Q: Hey 5i: I am overweight with whitecap and down 5% in the 9$ range ,could use for tax loss but like the dividend. Would definitely sell at 10$ but also would be fine breaking even because I may need this money in the next 8months to a year.With this in mind do you like it as a hold considering needing the money is not a certainty. Tough call but appreciate your input.Tks. Larry

Q: Hello 5i,

With the rise in the USD and decline in Asian and European stocks and ETF's, is this a good time to purchase ETF's for those zones with the anticipation that the ETF's will increase if the usd declines in value in the next 2-3 years?

If so, can you recommend one ETF for each zone for the cdn and us exchanges?

Thank you.
Debbie and Jerry

Q: You mentioned in an earlier answer that the time to buy is when things are bad which, in context, is now. Can you suggest some Canadian companies which deserve to be purchased about this time? Growth, value, doesn't matter. I have done well in the past by familiarizing myself with your daily answers. No one expects perfection but my 5i compass serves me well. Thanks

Q: Considering the latest news, do you think it's time to take a position in the cannabis sector? Or do you see this as a short term rally with not enough of a material impact?

Thanks
Joe

Q: What are these Single Stock ETFs all about? There is also AAPU & AAPD. Are they worth investing in?

Many Thanks!

Q: Hi and thank you for a splendid service

Q: Some time back, I came to the thesis that with all the financial stimulus, inflation would develop and that gold would rise. Well, we did have inflation but gold declined. Each of these 3 names may have had their own issues, I am down between 20 - 50 % on them. What is your view on gold going forward? What is your view on each of these 3 equities? Hold or sell, and why? Thank you for your excellent service.

Q: Without concern for sector or diversification what would be your top 2 choices of the above names for long term (10+ yrs) growth potential for TFSA? Of those 2 choices what is a good entry point??
