Q: Hi 5i Team,
I am looking at gradually building up positions in the above stocks over the next year as part of a diversified small cap growth portfolio.

Could you please comment on them and their growth prospects? If their is an economic downturn how does their survivability look? Are their any red flags that I'm missing?
In what order would you start buying them given today's price?
Thank you for the great service!

Q: Gud has now 51% and yet BIO trades at $10.15 BRL, about 16% below the offer price.
What do you read into this. Is there an opportunity here ? Can I buy BIO, should I ?
Will GUD offer less than they offered the private previous owners ? When will GUD start reporting earnings from this acquisition ? Do they need all the shares to do so ?
Finally do you see more analysts stepping in now with this new acquisition, maybe one or two will make it their top pick in 2020 ? Thoughts?Thanks

I just read about it on Seeking Alpha and CNBC shows 8 analysts covering with 5 strong buy and 3 buy recommendations with a consensus target of $35 vs a current price of $22.83. What are your thoughts regarding a position within a TFSA?

ThanksQ

Q: I sold WCP for the tax loss with the intention of buying it back after 30 days. Now that the 30 days has passed, I am questioning if I should repurchase it or if I would be better off with something else. It was my only energy sector holding and I am looking to fill the void with a new full position. What would be your best choice(s) for immediate purchase with the following criteria:
-Canadian energy sector
-Pays a dividend (can be small or large)
-Relatively strong balance sheet
-Will be able to weather $50 /barrel oil indefinitely but should nonetheless see some big gains when/if the Canadian sector turns around
