Q: Hi!

In The Globe recently:
"On March 4, chair of the board of directors Bill Holland bought 50,000 shares at a price per share of $20.20 for an account in which he has indirect ownership (WH Corp.), increasing this particular account’s position to 1,325,000 shares. The cost of this purchase exceeded $1-million.

Last month, we reported that Mr. Holland invested over $4.4-million in shares of CI with the purchase of 200,000 shares between Feb. 3 and Feb. 23.

Mr. Holland is CI’s former chief executive officer.

The company pays its shareholders a quarterly dividend of 18 cents per share or 72 cents per share yearly, equating to a current annualized yield of approximately 3.7 per cent."


What would you value CI right now on a per share basis?
Given the present investing environment would full position be a good idea?
Is management trustworthy and effective?
Is the insider buying significant enough to copycat?

Thank you as always!

Q: Hi 5i, After close to a 40% drop, I’ve initiated a position in NVDA through CDRs. My avgerage cost is $22.75 as of today. I assume after this pop in an oversold market, the stock will retrace further as rates go up and earnings and the North American economies go down. I plan to increase my holdings at target prices in the underlying security. Is this a sound strategy?

Q: Looking for income in a RIF account. And “ safer” companies in terms of stability.

These two stocks appear to meet the criteria. The dividends are in the 10-12% range

What do you think ?
Would you have a preference given the similarities in holdings?

Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i: I am considering getting back into some Canadian tech stocks. I would be pleased if you would provide me with your three best picks. A combination of cash on the balance sheet and moderate growth would be the criteria. I am a long term investor. Thank you always for providing great insights on investment decisions.

Q: Some small charities don't have broker accounts so you can use : https://www.canadahelps.org/fr/
They take a small commission and give the net results to your favorite charity and you get the tax receipt from Canadahelps. I used it 2 times and works just fine.

Q: Further to questions regarding capitulation, and if today gains hold, would you consider we have reached a bottom on this correction. I have been patiently waiting for a entry point to get started with some of the losses incurred.
Thanks
Rick

Q: A member recently asked if there are any Canadian companies comparable to PANW. Although it is no where near the scale of PANW, I learned about PLUR last year from 5i Q&A's and found it intriguing. Below is a description from your DB that might be of interest to your reader.

Plurilock's software leverages state-of-the-art behavioral-biometric, environmental, and contextual technologies to provide invisible, adaptive, and risk-based authentication solutions with the lowest possible cost and complexity.

Q: What is your opinion on Sentinel's earnings? I already own CRWD, I'm thinking of starting a small position in S as well. What do you think? Better to own both, or just stick with CRWD, your favourite.

Thanks

Q: Hi 5i Team, and would appreciate your analysis of the just posted results from SentinelOne. Also, do you see any endearing qualities or strengths to the business as a long term opportunity in the cybersecurity sector, and how would you rank it as a buy with respect to the larger well-known names in the sector. Thanks from an appreciative member.
