Q: Hi Peter
I have a Followup to Delbert’s question. In the link you shared, it lists the price for a new subscription to portfolio analytics. How about existing customers like me who have already subscribed to 5i research? ? If I want to upgrade to portfolio analytics, Do I have to still pay the full value of $390 ?

Happy holidays to the 5i team

Q: Peter and team: I want to sincerely thank you (!!) for your service--from a long time BNN viewer, avid reader of Peter's published articles, and very, very enriched long time 5i subscriber.

It is difficult to think of how 5i could be meaningfully improved. The responses to subscriber's questions in particular have terrific value when The questions are short and focus on one or a couple stocks, and I read the incredibly well thought out responses with keen interest, and have acted on these responses many many times over the years, profiting handsomely as a result.

I have one small suggestion to some subscribers. My wish would be for those offering criticism of 5i--David's recent remarks on Peter's endorsement of high flying TTD is top of mind-- to refrain from criticism of 5i's picks. If you are unaware, Mr Hodson is one of the very, very best in his field in Canada, full stop. He has made serious money from momentum plays. Your idea that TTD is too expensive is your perception and if Peter is endorsing it currently odds are you will likely be proved wrong, not Peter.

For a very modest annual sum we, the subscribers, have access to his thoughts on securities and the market. If you act accordingly on his recommendations, you will be rewarded over time.

To those who occasionally use the Q&A feature to be critical of research offered by Peter, on behalf of (Im sure) many subscribers, please, we don't want to have to filter through criticism, we want instead, ideally, just short, pointed questions on Peter's opinion regading say, one or two stocks at most.

Finally, those who ask long winded questions, or questions involving a dozen or more stocks, or those subscribers who occasionally angrily vent that a stock that was recommended lost altitude (that is part of the game folks) please consider the hundreds ? thousands? Of us who read these questions daily and are craving quality questions to elicit meaningful responses from Peter along our financial journey. Let's continue to give Peter reasons to continue operating this amazing service and continue personally responding to many of our questions by being reasonable subscribers as many, many of us are.

Q: This is more of an observation than a question. I am disappointed that you are now recommending "nosebleed" momentum stocks like CRWD and TTD quite often, and went so far to to include some of these momentum stocks in your answer to a question about which US stocks you would add today. In my humble opinion, buying stocks with astronomical valuations that are already up 10-fold or more from their 52 week lows is not normally a good recipe for investment success. It would be especially imprudent to buy such momentum stocks that are not even profitable and trade on the basis of Price to Sales. On the other hand, it is good that you are disclosing your personal ownership of many of these nosebleed stocks: I hope that you will also let your readers know when you sell...

Q: Happy Holidays everyone! I am relatively new to 5iResearch (few months) and must say that my results have been outstanding to say the least (SHOP, WELL, XBC to name a few - AC being the only one down so far). Thank you for that 5i.

I hold ET but am negative, as I am with BPY.UN (by more than 20% on both). I need to increase exposure in Technology, Industrials and both Consumer Cyclical and Defensive and decrease in Real estate. I do like some revenue but it is not essential for the next 3-5 years.

In no special order I am thinking LSPD or SYZ, TFII or WSP, PLC and PBH. What are you suggestions for growth here. Please comment and/or place in order of preference - objective being to recapture lost value in BPY.UN and ET over coming 12 months.

I understand this may represent many questions. Please take necessary credits. Thank you.

Q: I reviewed your recent answer to a question on Haivision and wanted to follow up. I have had some success profiting from DND on the IPO and a less pleasant experience with BBTV. I am wondering if you can dig a little deeper on Haivision to help me understand if it's more of an LSPD/DND/NVEI company in terms of opportunity vs BBTV which sounded exciting? Does Haivision have a large TAM and if so, is it a market already dominated by a few players or is Haivision a pioneer or one of the early entrants? Who do they compete against (US or Canada) and are they growing more quickly or more slowly than the competition? Lastly, if there are major competitors, does Haivision have any unique offerings that give them an advantage?

Thanks as always for your thoughtful and profitable replies!
