Q: Hi 5i team,
I've a 2% holding in PHO in a loss position now in my TFSA. I'm thinking of increasing the holding to 4% for a 2-3 years hold. With the current stock price, the general economy, and the semi-conductor business in particular, is this a prudent move or should I wait for a better price or a sign of recovery of the semi conductor business? Thanks.

Q: I am a retired, dividend-income investor. Assume asset allocation is not an issue. I already hold positions in Nutrien, XIT (technology ETF) and Eric's NinePoint Energy fund (proxy for the oil market). I have this year's TFSA monies to put towards one of these equities.

Please rank for total return (best to worst) for 2020 and a short explanation as to why.

Thanks for your help...Steve

Q: I have held CWL for a few years. The dividend has been nice but the share price has remained relatively static. Other than for income, do you see much reason to continue to hold this stock or is it time to move on to something with more upside potential? Do you foresee any catalysts that might warrant continuing to hang on to the stock?

Q: What is 5i's opinion about Caldwell Partners fiscal Q1 results and outlook. The Company continues to grow its revenues and is posting profits. Would it be realistic that this Company could fetch 1X revenues on a takeover, merge or going private transaction which would imply big upside from the current stock price?

Q: Hello again, 5i team. Thinking about initiating a small postion (1.5% of overall portfolio) in this stock, likely for my TFSA. Stock is up 378% in the last 30 days (!), but I'm having trouble determing whether or not the jump is based on anything substantive. I would greatly appreciate your views on the company itself and the stock in the next 6 - 12 months. Thanks for all the great insights. - Asher
