Investment Q&A

Q: What US companies will benefit most from an infrastructure development boom in the US?

Q: People seem to have varied views concerning the causes of the supply chain disruptions including covid, lack of longshoremen, lack of truck drivers, etc. Do you see any companies benefiting from this; perhaps on the transportation side such as CNR, TFII, or CJT ? Or any other industries?
Thanks for your insights.

Q: For international exposure to Basic Materials I’ve been looking at these two large caps….can I get your analysis of these, especially comments on the high dividend?

Q: Dec 2019 you noted consider "NVST on its own at a later date, once it has reported a few quarters on its own".
Based on results to date can you expand on your previous note.
Would you consider it a buy? Why or why not?

Thanks,
TJ

Q: I have held NPI in both registered and non-registered accounts for years. The stock price has more than tripled, so obviously I am happy with that, but I am now retired and invest mainly for dividends. NPI currently yields less than 3%, a bit low compared to some other power producers like EMA or CU (I already hold some CU but not EMA). NPI also seems to be struggling to get back to its past highs, and if it did then the yield percentage would be that much less. I am considering selling NPI in the registered account and replacing it with either EMA or CU (recognizing these 2 are not currently as strong in the renewable space).
Could you compare the dividend growth, dividend sustainability, debt levels and future stock growth potential of these 3 stocks, and comment on my plan.
Thank-you

Q: I am scratching my head on this one! I bought some very cheaply in the recent market sell off. I am looking at the NAV of $18.10 (Sept. pricing). That seems an extraordinarily steep discount to what it presently sells for. Am I reading it correctly? Further, I noticed it passed up a termination date some time back but has another at 2023 year end. What would convince them to shut it down? Shareholders like me or something else? If something else what could that look like?

TIA

Q: Can you please provide your latest thoughts on this company. The stock has been performing very well.
I am thinking of making an initial investment in a TFSA. Looking for some growth in both stock price and dividend. It appears that the stars may be aligning for this company with capacity increasing and sadly the loss of many smaller restaurants.
Thanks for all your insights and ideas over the years!!!

Q: My 28 yo son has $6k USD to invest in his RSP. I have considered many good companies, and whittled it down to 4 choices. I could not find a site to learn the ROIC on these companies. Could 5i provide please? Could 5i rank these 4 based on their growth potential? No requirement to comment on sector allocation within portfolio as that is in hand. Thanks in advance.

Q: I came across this name the other day and it piqued my interest. In particular the yield. Would you recommend this company as part of a dividend portfolio and does it have any growth potential besides its yield?
Thank you as always for your great service it is much appreciated.

Q: Hi team,

What are your thoughts on these Canadian beat up tech cos (AT, WELL, WE, STC, CTS, SFTC)? How would you rank them in terms of quality and your favorites at current price?

I look at AT and 12x F22 ev to ebitda. That is 5x less than TTD!!! Seems insanely cheap.

CTS also seems to be out growing their peers and have an attractive 10.6x F22 ev to ebitda.

And WE has Bill Ackmans backing!
