Q: SIS is down 6% after an earnings report that appears to be their best ever. Plus the following forward looking comments from Bourassa ..... " Our goal for the end of 2025 to reach approximately $1 billion of revenue and 20% adjusted EBITDA are well within our sight. " ...... Could 5i comment on the quarter and conference call with your analysis ? And possibly some insight into the stock reaction ? With optimistic forward looking statements I normally don't expect the stock price to go down ..... Thanks Garth ......

Q: I currently have HCAL in a growth orientated TFSA and I don't think this is a good fit.
Currently, I hold Goog, SHOP, LMN & CLS. Do have a few ideas for a stock that could replace the HCAL ETF?

Q: I recently picked up some POWL:US stock. Today (Friday March 1st) I see the stock has dropped approx 5%. I also note that Mr. T Powell, owner, sold 25K shares. This might have been a trigger for some investors as a time to sell. However, he owns 2.4M shares. I am thinking that his sale is actually immaterial to his overall holdings. In other words, this might be a good time to purchase more. Am I on the right track?
My thanks.

Q: Hello 5i,

Interested in your perspective on CDRs vs traditional US holdings. Understanding you are comfortable with them did want to validate 2 scenarios -

1 - Would you always prefer the traditional US holding versus its equivalent CDR and assuming so - is there a minimun you would consider in terms of holdings. Simply put - does it make sense to buy only (example) 3 shares of GOOG or should I instead use that liquidity to purchase equivalent CDR's

2 - Can you please rank top 3 CDR's at the moment

Thank you as always!

Q: Sir: some people are suggesting that seeking high income vehicles yielding north of 8% might be a better way to go. The following have been mentioned: 1. Preferred Stock closed end funds 2. CEF connect 3. High yield bond closed end funds 4. Senior loan closed end funds. Do you agree? and how does one find a winner in each of the categories? In a recession, this makes sense to me..
