Q: Hello,
I am looking to purchase a stock for my RRIF. I would like to have something fairly safe.
With Amazon/Google being so expensive I would only be able to purchase a small number of shares but with Amazon having recently pulled back is now a good time to start a position? Where it is a RRIF would the dividend of IBM be a better choice or TOI for growth?
Thanks very much.

Q: Hi,

This is just a comment to your answer to one of the 5 I members in that CELH is not reporting earnings on the 6th as you previously noted but instead on:
CELSIUS®, today announced that it will release financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2021, on Thursday, August 12, 2021, before the market open. Management will then host a conference call that same day at 10:00 a.m. Eastern Time, to discuss the results with the investment community.

Thanks

Q: Hi 5i team,

I want to start investing in Renewable energy and utility companies. What are the key financial metrics to value if the company's share price is expensive? Ex. I am considering to get BEPC but it seems very pricy comparing with AQN on Fwd P/E basis (193 vs. 20)

Thanks,

Q: Hello Peter, Ryan and 5i Team,

Several years ago, my brother-in-law suggested I take a look at Vicor when it was about $12. I decided not to invest, and since then, it has rocketed up to $118 and his initial $10K investment has become a home run.

Is this a company that may be of interest to you and what do you think about future growth potential? Thanks, Brad

Thank you for your help.

Q: hello 5i:
We have about a 2% position in ENB. While looking to add to our present position, I did a quick comparison with TRP and PPL. Using P/S, PE, P/CF, P/B, P/FE and Earnings Yield, it appears that PPL is the cheapest when current valuation is compared to 5 year averages. I know that you've recommended ENB as your favourite in this space and am wondering why, assuming my numbers are correct (derived from Morningstar). Can you enlighten me, as I know the future is more important than past metrics? Also, Morningstar has a -2.09 Earnings Yield for PPL. Is this correct and how is that possible?
I am willing to sell ENB and invest in only one of these companies (have held ENB for approximately 12 years, so obviously favour buy and hold).
thanks
