Investment Q&A

Q: Hi... your thoughts on QSR now and the quarter. Is the turn around at Tim Hortons beginning to take hold or still too early to say?

thx. Mark

Q: What do you think of its prospects?

Q: I don't have any inflation protected bonds. Do they have a place in a portfolio do you think? I see ZRR got creamed in the last year, do you feel it is time to nibble at them?
Thank you

Q: Good Morning,
Any idea what has been driving the Canadian Dollar higher, and do you see this trend continuing?
Thank You

Q: What is making these stocks go down day after day. They seem to be in a popular area going forward?

Q: My son, 19 years old, wants to open a TFSA. Would appreciate your advice given that he has a small amount to invest (around $3,000 to start), a long-term horizon, not adverse to some degree of risk and except for small discretionary expenses has no immediate need for cash (parents pay for university, food and lodging). Thank you.

Q: Good morning, thoughts on the Q4 from DTEA and thier transition from bricks and mortar to an online retailer.
Once the CCAA is settled what do you see as a reasonable multiple on this type of business, considering thier online revenue growth rate was close to 100% year over year. Do retailers who garner the majority of thier revenue online command better multiples than traditional bricks and mortar businesses?

Q: Peter,

TD just redeemed preferred TD.PF.G. What is your opinion of investing in preferreds with where we are in the interest rate game { ie I am assuming a slight slow gradual increase - TD must think the same thing }. I realize they are for income only and do you think rate resets are the way to go? . Please give me few recommendations.

Thank you

Paul

Q: I am sure this question has been asked before. As a general rule of the thumb that stocks, and etfs should be held in various accounts.
Accounts:
CAD Cash
US Cash
RSP
TFSA

I think I know that US Dividend payers should be in RSP, Growth in TFSA, but do you have a high level how to best allocate various types of Stock assets for Cad, US, and International, along with sector allocation or divend?

Thanks.

Q: hello 5i:
I haven't seen a question on ABBV's latest earnings, so if you've answered already, please ignore this one. If not, can you review their latest quarter and particularly the discussion on drugs in the pipeline? I'm considering adding to about a 2% position.
thanks

Q: Hi 5i team,

Further to Dave’s question on Jan 22/21, can you please add ClearField Inc (CLFD) to your database.
The recent quarter appeared to handily beat again, can they continue their impressive growth rates going forward and specifically, post pandemic? Would you start an initial (⅓) position? Is there anything concerning in their financials (P/E, etc) that would make you cautious? The Q2 release mentioned possible supply chain issues in the near term, is this concerning to you?
Given the higher Cdn $ these days it seems like a good time to buy some US stocks.

My other choice is Abcellera (ABCL) which has fallen quite a bit in the last 3 months. Any specific reason for the decline other than vaccines are more widely available/distributed.? Any preference between these two? I don’t own either stock currently.

Appreciate the work the team does!!
Steve

Q: Hello, are you guys able to comment on this etf? Would this be a good potential growth investment medium-long term?

Thanks

Q: A lot of interest exists for the lithium industry. I was wondering what your opinion is and possible recommendations to participate in the growth of this sector of mining, or perhaps it is too late to experience much upside.

Q: What are your thoughts on TAIG motors. Do you consider buying or hold? Do you know when they will report their earnings. Can you please advise their debt, Cash, and insider holdings,

Thanks for the great service

Q: Can you explain what's happening to SHOP. Blowout quarter, stock immediately shoots up over 10% and now its tanking. I can see some profit taking but is there more here?

Q: If you only had one choice between KXS and TOI which would you buy today and what would be the portfolio weighting?

Thanks

Peter

Q: Hi Why is the stock sliding lower? I can't find a reason. Is this a good entry point? Thanks

Q: I have both BNS and TD in a TFSA.

Thinking of swapping one of these for GSY for a tilt towards more growth.

What would be the best move here?

Thank you

Q: What does 5i think about Lantronix's quarterly report and acquisition news today?

Q: What three metals generate most of Teck's revenues? Can you please provide percentages of revenue for each of the three? Thank you.
