Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I have read your recent report on this company and reviewing with the possibility of taking a position.
My concern is that in the history of questions you were not particularly in favor of this company for various reasons.
Can you review and be more specific to your apparent change to your view.
Thanks John

Q: Good morning,

It looks like NVDIA posted excellent results - would like your take on the results and also your advice for someone who wants to start a position. Do you think it is wise to invest now or wait a little, and what would be a good entry price? The markets seem a little jittery as of late.

Thank you!

Q: Hi 5i,
do you think AQN, BEP.UN, BEPC, BLX and NPI might experience some tax loss selling pressure for the remainder of 2021?
Can you rate them in order of purchase preference with #1 being the most favoured for an income portfolio.

thanks

Q: I had 2506 shares of BPY.UN before the merger.
Now I have 228 shares of BAM.A and 164 shares of BPYP.PR.A. The value of these two spinoffs is about $40,000 less then the 2506 shares of BPY.UN. Why is this?

Also should I sell those latter two as they only comprise 0.55% and 0.18% of the portfolio or combine the two and add to BAM.A.
Does this also mean I am reduced in real estate as a result of the merger?
Thanks Please deduct as many credits as needed.
Jeff

Q: Big bounce today on no news! (?) I've owned this since joining 5i. It has gone in and out of market favour but I've always enjoyed the dividend. I've been picking up dividend stocks for the last year and done well but I am not expecting a lot of growth from them from here. SYZ should get some decent growth and the yield is healthy. I like the SaaS field and this being tied to government work - which seems a way to get some beta away from the market business cycle. Does it really fit this bill? Yield makes me patient how do you see it over all?

TIA

Q: I recently submitted a question about possibly under-levered reits, and was surprised to receive an answer about "cheap" reits. To my mind these are quite different concepts.

Q: BHP recently reported good results but also signalled it is getting out of gas and oil. The share price has dropped substantially and I'm wondering if you can shed some light on this reality. I hold it as an ADR and am wondering if i am entitled to the shares of Woodside that are supposed to be compensation for its exit of oil and gas.

Q: These debentures are being called. If it's the intent to convert to the common shares, is it better to sell the debentures and buy the common shares. If held until Sep 9, the company converting to shares at 95% on the 20 day avg sounds like ending up with less common shares. Which way would work best?

Q: I've just started to look into GUD and I'm trying to understand why the shares have been trading down since 2017. From what I can see, earnings and revenue have been climbing, they've beaten EPS estimates the last 5 quarters, insiders are buying, the company is buying back shares, management has a good track record....what is the bull thesis or what am I missing?

Q: Hi,
I was looking at taking a position in UCTT.(Ultra Clean)
I believe the earnings were fine with a beat on both revenue and EPS including raised guidance,
The stock is trading at $41.31 currently. Looking at some of its financial metrics & estimates , this stock is trading at 1x NTM revenue. I would consider this stock extremely cheap currently.
Would you agree with my understanding and is there anything else you could add?
Thanks

Q: Further to my Aug. 18 question, you replied net income for the quarter was $2.1 B and all numbers in the billions. Understandable since if you read the bottom part of their news release it presents the numbers but fails to change an earlier heading, what I'm taking as a typo. CEO states in the body "Net income of $2 million and $5 million for the three and six months ended were higher than the comparative periods due to..."

So it's $2 million vs a $1 million loss last year. I know it's unaudited, but do you ever see this kind of error? Link: https://www.5iresearch.ca/company/tsx/BAMR

Is the reason you selected TSU over BAMR for the growth portfolio simply because the latter is new?
