Q: Hello 5i team,
I received notice that Horizon will be canceling certain ETFs including HYI affective March 20 2024. Can you give me other ETFs that are equivalent?

Q: Hi 5i Team - Could you provide an update on BWX Technologies, particularly in relation to its small nuclear reactors technology. Do you think that there will be a demand for this type of energy source and is BWXT the best positioned company to commercialize them, or are there better choices in this field. Also are there already small nuclear reactors been built or up and running.
Thank you

Q: I own these stocks in my open account and would like to add to my investment in these stocks. How would you rate these stocks on a 5 year hold with a rating of 10 being highly recommended and purchase not recommended rated as 1. Thank you

Q: The last trade looks to be about a week ago, and TD displays a message that stock details are unavailable.  Are you aware of any developments with the company (or has it just had a week of no trading volume)?
On a related note, the company seems to rely on private placements from the chairman for a couple of million$ at a time.  With the market capitalization at $9M now, why wouldn't the chairman just take the company private and save the expense of running a public company, if it is a going concern?  Thanks for your expertise.

Q: Is DOL over valued today and still riding the pandemic spending tail wind in your view? Any idea of a “true” price today?

Q: Greetings,

My first purchase of CCL.B in May 2017 was just before the stock split. At the time it was $63.3 per share. I have earned approx $1200 in dividends and am currently down around $600 based on current share price, and up $600 overall. Can you please remind me why I should continue to hold this stock. My patience is beginning to wear thin. Many thanks and my apologies if my expectations are not reasonable.

Q: Hi 5i team,

My daughter and her partner are investing in their RRSPs through a work plan. They are in a number of Mutual funds, some with quite high MERs range about 1.5 to 2.5%. Also high redemption rates (some up to 5% in first year or two). I have tried to find the mutual funds from their statements, but mostly listed without codes so difficult to be certain of all data.

They have :
20% Balanced funds
47% Canadian Equity
13% Global Fixed income
20% Foreign Equity.

Amount invested is significant but not really high - includes 3 years of contributions/investment. I think they would be best to withdraw the money now and invest in ETFs. I don't think they need to similarly replicate the funds above in ETFs.

2 questions:

A. Any suggestions as to most efficient way to withdraw from these funds? Are there questions to ask that might help reduce redemption bite or should they just make the switch.
B. They are late 30's and 40 yo, so time horizon of approx. 20 years or more before needing money. They are interested in investing but are very early in this. Wondering what you would suggest for starter ETFs right now with bias towards growth. Perhaps you could suggest 4-6 ETFs that would give them age and time horizon appropriate investments.

Please use as many questions as needed.
Thank you in advance for your usual great service and the very helpful advice.

Q: Can you suggest other ETFs to play growth without the mag 7 -do you think AiQ is a good alternative?

Q: PRL and LMN are examples of small cap stocks that have recently moved in price to reflect their earnings and future potential. However, only after a period where their performance and promise were not yet recognized, and investment was stagnant. Do you have stock suggestions on the US and/or Canadian markets that might be on the verge of similar recognition and subsequent transition to prolonged growth?

Q: Please comment on results released today after close. It was down 6.49% to $160.90. Add,Hold or Trim/sell. Txs for u usual great services & views

Q: Peter; On Kris’s question on small caps one was TYK- did you mean TVK?Thanks,
Rod

Q: Any comments on AO Smith earnings, valuation, buy hold or sell?

Q: This is just a curiosity, and please don't feel obliged to answer if this isn't public information or you'd rather not divulge. But I'm curious what is the current size of the 5i subscriber base - I often wonder how many in the 5i community are reading the same Q&A as me? It's a lot of effort on your part!

Q: Equal weight with the noted companies. Would like to add a 6th with equal weight as well. Will set and forget for 10+ years. Can you please provide 3-4 possible compelling options. Ty.

Q: Is DOO a buy at today's price (approx $86) or is this a value trap? Thx.

Q: I own these energy stocks and some are on the plus side and others are on the losing side. I've been waiting for quite some time for the Chinese economy to take off, but it seems to go nowhere ? I would like to trim some of my holdings. Please place them in order of what you would keep down to some you would let go. Maybe you could code them as 10 being the best and 1 as being the worst. Thanks.

Q: What are your thoughts on this IPO
Thanx
Gary

Q: I have to raise some cash, and have to sell the equivalent of one of the above positions, all up various amounts from 10% to 60%, but all have about the same market value. All healed in TFSA. Considering growth only with a multi-year hold, what do you suggest - trim all three, trim two, or sell one full position, and if so which do you suggest. Thanks!
