Investment Q&A

Q: If I only had room for one of these in my portfolio, which is your favorite?

Q: Hello Peter and team,
Just a comment. Your response to Dennis on December 18th regarding to what happened to the markets from 1990 to present (technology in relation to yields) is the best i have seen and somewhat comforting that investing in companies like Amazon , Google, etc makes sense. Thanks for the perspective.

Q: Has Roblox price entered an attractive buy zone?

Q: How does 5i develop recommendations on geographical equity allocation. 5i recommends 25% Canada, 40% USA and 35% International for me. Is this the same for everyone or is this based on my risk tolerance?

Q: Would you swap a position in CGI for ACN ( I hold in a registered account)? CGI's price appreciation has been underwhelming over the past 5 years compared to ACN.
Anything in particular about ACN's services or management quality that allows it to dominate CGI?

Q: Everyone.
I am looking for the current number of shares held by institutions and insiders. I can find data to the end of September or some in October. When does insiders and institutions report the number of shares they hold on LSPD?

Q: Charitable Donations. We checked our cash account at Questrade on Friday regarding charitable donations of a Canadian security made to charities. We discovered that a fee of $25 per donation had been charged. We contacted the broker to complain and the first agent and supervisor both said that it couldn't be waived although we were offered one free trade for each donation. We then followed up with an email to the CEO of Questrade, Edward Kholodenko to complain about the fee and cc'd Rob Carrick, John Heinzl and Tim Cestnick of the Globe and Jamie Golombek of the Financial Post. Jamie Golombek got back to us to indicate that CIBC did not charge a fee for the same donation.

Post only if you think others would be interested.

Q: Peter and Co.,

Q: Regarding the answer to my question with respect to Nortel and the tech decline received Saturday @ 3:49 a.m., my family held stock in Nortel and I am very appreciative with respect to the detailed and quality of the answer to my question. Myself and probably many others had concerns with the Nasdaq doing what it has been doing lately and your perfectly explained answer made me feel a lot more comfortable. I guess you were working late due to the timing of the answer. Thanks again,

Q: How do you like BIGC at these levels and its future prospects. Would you buy?

Q: Hi 5i,

What would be the best ways to participate in a nuclear energy revival? What would you pick outside the usual material companies? (suppliers, engineering, infrastructure?)

Happy holidays to you all!

Q: Hello 5i
I want to re arrange my TFSA and seek your advice, I own a lot of Topicus in my TFSA and have been considering selling it to buy something else, for two reasons. First, it is close to CSU and I have a lot of that, too. so, I would like to delute that concentration. Also, I want a US company with high premiums that I can sell options on. My preference would be Nvidia. But, because Topicus has gone down so much, lately, I would like to get someting good that has gone down as much as it. Therefore I was looking mostly at Square. APPs might give me a faster ride. < in both directions, thought!> but Square might be more reliable for a retired person. Appreciate any suggestions and, as always, respect and value your judgement
