Q: If discussing investing in companies pre-IPO is within the scope of 5i please make general comments on such a strategy and investing in Anduril in particular. The company appears to be an established leader in military drone development and is anticipated to go public within the next few years. I am not sure how one goes about participating pre-IPO, but a web search came up with investing via a company such as Forge as an option (presumably for a fee). I meet the criteria but am hesitant to proceed.
Q: A couple of questions about HSAV: first, I wish to compare what is available on GICs to HSAV - what is the effective rate of interest being earned on dollars invested in HSAV? Second, it seems the premium paid for the price to invest compared to the NAV has risen in the last month - is there a reason why? And is there any way to predict if the premium will get any smaller in the next few weeks? Last, is there a fairly direct relationship between any reductions from the BoC to what is earned with HSAV, eg if the BoC reduces by 1%, does the effective rate earned with HSAV go down by 1%? Many thanks for your excellent service.
Q: 1, Would you recommend adding to CRWD today (Jul 19, 2024) or wait til the dust settles?
2, What would be a good entry price? $280 ish?
(I have held CRWD for some time and have been doing well. Have wanted to add to it for a long time but its valuation scares me.)
Q: If it was you holding CELH and being down 40% (now a 2.75% position), would you be holding or moving on? Would you even consider adding to average down?
Thanks
Q: In a question by Savalai, 5i indicated that VBK would be a good international small cap growth ETF. After looking into this, it looks like this is primarily US.
Is there another ETF you would recommend for international small cap growth?
Q: Would you initiate a position here? This company rarely falters the way it has recently. Is this a compelling buy, if so, please rate it on scale of 1-10, 10 being a high conviction. Please rank it amongst your favourites in consumer discretionary.
Q: What are your thoughts on this company as a speculative investment? Rick Rule seems to like it. The share price action has been confusing lately after the business combination with Reunion Gold. Can you please explain what is going on with that as well?
Q: It has been some time since a question was asked about this company.
It is performing very well technically and has a nice long term chart.
Can you please provide your excellent fundamental analysis and an opinion on purchasing in a TFSA.
Q: BIR has been moving up YTD, more than TOU. Would you take this opportunity to take a loss and switch to TOU?
You said Yes to a similar question in June, but could BIR be a takeover target, how probable? Thanks
Q: Hi there, I have an interesting question regarding sell equities from a global etf to live on in retirement. I would sell once a year to set aside money for yearly living expenses. I suppose indiscriminately a person could do this on Jan 1 every year but presumably the ideal time to sell equity to live off would be at their yearly highs. Based on this presumption, technically and seasonality wise historically when would be a good time in the year to pull expenses to fund a years worth of living expenses?
Q: Good day 5i. Which of these two energy dividend companies would you prefer, PrairieSky Royalty (PSK) or Freehold Royalties (FRU). Currently the dividends are PSK 3.5% and Freehold 7.6%. Thanks.
