Q: Hello,
Descartes Systems and Algonquin Power are starting to show positive momentum . Would this be a good time to enter the two names; if not, which one would you prefer. Sincere thanks for the ongoing advice.

Q: Is there an international small cap ETF or do I need to combine something like IWM + CGro + ACWX?

Q: Hello 5i Team
Was there any news on Tnz stock that made the stock spike so much? I noticed that there was an analyst upgrade, but can not imagine that it would have caused a such an increase alone .
Thank you

Q: Fairfax Financial is up about 100% in two years. I see that Orla Mining Ltd. is 29.6% of the FFH portfolio, and is up about 350% in two years. Can you calculate how FFH would have performed without OLA in the portfolio?

Q: I am below 2% weighting in each of these companies and would like to sell one or possibly two to increase my weightings. Considering a 3 to 5 year time frame what would you sell first and what would you add to first? Please rank with some if your thoughts. Thanks. ram

Q: I am currently down on GFL, and am considering replacing it with TFII in my portfolio. Do you think this is a solid move with regards to GFL’s potential compared to that of TFII.

Q: Excepting the evidently low growth potential for this fund, why would an income investor not get 4% or so for their portfolio? Is there a Canadian fund that is its approximate equal? Thank you.

Q: Happy New Year! I have held ZQQ:CA for several years and am looking switch to an unhedged fund that covers the Nasdaq 100. Is this a good time to switch or given that the US dollar is under pressure right now should I wait to make this switch? Is there an ETF you would recommend in the same category?
I am also overweight in Technology and underweight in International holdings. I hold DSG which has been in decline over the past year and was considering a swap for EUAD for the next five years. Other considerations you may suggest would be appreciated.
Thoughts?
Thank you
Dan

Q: Hello Team 5i & Everyone,

I came across this article over the weekend via a Lance Roberts’ “Real Investment Advice” website’s “Daily Market Commentary” post on it Jan. 7th.  The title is a bit meh, but the key detail to me I pulled from the article is that the Pentagon has elevated critical minerals to the same strategic priority tier as ammunition and fuel. The US already has access to enough oil elsewhere.

Please share with other members if you feel it has enough truth to it.

Thank you & Happy New Year,

Q: Hi, Riocan has been quite strong lately (up 7% in 8 days) which is not normal for this stock. I don't see any news. Any thoughts? Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i Research Team

Hope you’re having a wonderful Monday.

Quick question on Netflix (NFLX). Shares are around ~$90 and I’m debating whether it makes sense to start a position ahead of the next earnings release.

What are the key bull and bear drivers you’d be watching?

Is there anything in expectations/valuation right now that makes the risk/reward especially asymmetric one way or the other?

If you were interested, would you treat it as a starter position vs. a larger bet, and why?

Appreciate any perspective you can share.

Best,

Q: Hello Team 5i & Everyone,

Just wondering if you have any comments or if you can share which data/charts you’re currently keeping a close eye on with the US markets regarding the looming removal of the independence of the US Fed? I watched Powell’s video response up on the Fed website and am inclined to agree with his assessment of the situation.

I realize there’s no point in guessing, however I would not be surprised to see Powell replaced when his term ends in the Spring by someone who is keen to cut interest rates regardless of what the economic data is advising. I would also not be surprised if this sparked a sugar rush in markets and a rise in inflation. But we’ll see what happens, I’m sure there will be more developments before then.

Living in interesting times isn’t all it’s cracked up to be it seems.

Thank you,

Sandra
