Q: Good morning 5i staff
A couple of months ago I sold pbh for a tax loss and bought a Td for a replacement. Since that time atd has gone down close to15%. I am now thinking about selling it for tax loss. Even if I buy pbh or some other stock for thirty days, I would rather own atd. Do you see any catalyst in the near future that would cause atd to rise quickly.?
Thanks as always for the great service

Q: A two part question having to do with the sharp drop in TFII but more about the reliability of 5i data and institutional trading.

Firstly 5i shows institutional holdings at 1.02% while several other site show it at over 70%, that's quite a discrepancy.

Secondly when one sees heavy volume trading it is assumed that it is the institutions moving the stock. With a sharp drop it is assumed that they are selling. My question would be who are they selling to?

Q: Please rank the above companies for total return over the next three years. For the top two companies, please advise why you prefers them.

Q: These are the only 2 loosers in my US stocks (-10%), are they still a good choice actually, or should I replace them ,if so,any suggestions for us dividend stocks ?

Q: is this an opportunity to add on weakness or is it a HOLD?

Q: I own FRU in a TFSA and although I appreciate the high dividend associated with this stock, I now understand that the dividend is not covered by either its Earnings or Cashflows.

Q1. With the NAV of the stock significantly down over the past few years and the dividend not being covered by either the Earnings or Cashflows, should I be worried about the relative safety of the dividend?

Q2. What are your thoughts on continuing to hold FRU in a TFSA and should a holder of FRU just cut their loss and replace FRU with some other stock?

Q3. What is your best idea as a FRU replacement should I need to sell FRU and replace it with another stock or ETF in the sector?

Thank you and I'll await your response.

Q: In an earlier answer you said LULU won't be exempt from tariffs. Does LULU have any production capacity it the US? What amount of their revenues come from the US ( which could presumably be hit by tariffs? Is the tariff threat appropriately baked into current share prices. In short, is this the time to hold, reduce, or run?

Q: On BNN recently this stock was recommended. I liked his justification.
I read some of your responses to questions from last year. I understand management had an issue and paid a fine and CEO replaced.
A statement I read was that currently their payout ratio is well above 100%.
I get the feeling you are not enamoured by this company.
Can you please confirm I) payout ratio and ii )your feeling is maybe hold off until fundamentals improve.
Thanks

Q: In the last while, 5I answers in this forum have indicated that WSP is at risk from the potential of tariffs; the background for this appears to be that the company is considered an industrial, a sector that is exposed. But doesn't WSP provide services, which seemingly would not be the subject of tariffs? And isn't a large of their work in USA or abroad? Can you please detail your analysis of this? Many thanks for your excellent service.

Q: I have cash in my US TFSA and am contemplating adding to my Brk.b or taking a new position in JPM. Considering these volatile times with the potential of tariffs what advice might you offer ? The other strategy might also be to keep some money in cash. Thanks

Q: What do you think about Nebius for a two year hold?
And why is it so volatile? Something to do with having little institutional coverage/ownership?

Q: I looked in my Brokerage account today and noticed that my former Gear Energy (GXE) shares had been converted into Lotus Exploration (LTC) shares and cash. It looks like 62% of my Gear holding was converted to Lotus shares and 38% was received in cash (at a very low valuation).

Since the transaction Lotus has lost 29% in just 2 weeks.
I don't know how such a sleazy deal got past the TSX regulators? This reminds me of the bad old days when the TSX head honchos enabled frauds such as Bre-ex, Sino-Forest and so on or the even worse Vancouver stock exchange days.
In total I am down 53% on my original Gear purchase in Jan'23.

I have 2 questions;
1) does LTC pay a dividend?
2) is there any valaue at all in LTC or is this whole thing a fraud?
