Q: Hi, Hammond Power stock has been on a tear, for all good reasons, as noted in numerous 5i comments. However, it seems that the valuation has also moved up to a forward PE of 21.5 up from 10.5 less than a year ago. The stock has historically been volatile after company's earning release. What could be the factors, in your assessment, which could cause a pullback in the stock ( If any ), post March 27 earnings ? And, if it does, would to consider it to be a buying opportunity and at what price level ?

Could you please also provide the street estimates.

Thank You

Q: HAS GAINED SOME MOMENTUM RECENTLY. BESIDES HAVING A NICE DIVIDEND,
what is your opinion?

Q: For at least10 years I had been invested in a diversified portfolio that included the eleven sectors, bond ETF's gold, preferred shares and cash only to see the bond ETF's and preferred shares continually tumbling down year after year. Gold went nowhere with no dividend, nada.Tiring of this I got rid of the bond ETF's, the preferred shares, and gold having lost thousands but I didn't care! At least I no longer had to look at this disaster taking place as they melted down to almost nothing. What was left I invested in the good companies and never looked back. As my five year GIC ladder came due, each year I gained a paltry $1,500 or so on $10,000. So no more ladder. All through the pandemic the dividends now kept on coming, stocks are increasing and I was up a minimum of $140,000. So now I have cash, all eleven sectors with fixed income from ETF's like UMAX and others plus my pension. So cash 13%, Equity 50% and fixed 35% no bonds, no gold, no preferred shares and 2 years left on my GIC ladder and Europe ETF. I know 5i loves to include bonds etc as a "balancing diversifier" to a portfolio but for me this did not work out. Maybe in the next ten years or more they may break even but I do no want to wait that long. So far this works for me. I invite any comments that you may have.

Q: In a high growth portfolio I hold the following US stocks: CRWD, GOOGL, NVO, Uber and the ETF XT. I think I would like to replace the ETF XT with a single growth stock. XT has done okay for me in that it has doubled but that took nearly 10 years. Can you recommend a faster growing US stock that would be a good fit?

Thank you.
David

Q: Good morning everyone at 5i!
Quick question...does PSI increase its dividend yearly? And of so how long has it consistently doing so??

Cheers,

Q: I believe the recent weakness in GSY may also be partly the result of Stephen Smith merging Home Bank and Fairstone to create a stronger competitor to GSY, plus all the noise about Propel.

Q: I'd like to invest a substantial inheritance in solid, relatively safe dividend stocks in a non-registered account for a stream of tax-efficient income. Can you suggest 7-8 stocks for me to consider and do you consider that number enough for diversification? Would you buy in gradually over the year or invest all at once? Is it unwise to invest in Canadian stocks only ( have geographic diversification in my registered accounts)? I won't need the income for 2-3 years and will probably hang on to them for life, whatever that may be (I'm in my late 50s). Thanks. I have tons of credits - use as many as needed.

Q: Hi 5i Team - Could you summarize the recent deal between Alamos Gold and Argonaut Gold. I hold shares in Argonaut Gold. Do you think it is worth holding them to gain shares in Alamos as well as shares in the spin-out of Algonquin - or just sell now. When is the anticipated date of the transaction. Thanks

Q: I realize that you must wait 30 business days before you can repurchase a stock that you sold for a capital loss but are there any rules about the timeline on when you purchased the stock before selling it?

Q: OGI closed yesterday at $3.65. The company announced this morning that it was selling 7.74 million shares to a syndicate of underwriters for $3.23 per share.

After the market opened, OGI is down >20% to ~$2.85.

Why did the company apparently shoot itself in the foot by doing this?
