Q: Hello 5i,
I'm having trouble making sense of the merger of these two companies.
Specifically, I owned 300 shares of LVGO pre-merger. How many TDOC shares at what price and how much cash should receive. For some reason my math doesn't match what RBC Direct shows.
Thank you so much!
Dave

Q: It feels like the USA might slide into a civil war in the next few months (i hate that i have to even consider that awful outcome) . Do you ignore the possibility and remain diversified? Or rather take some profit now while the market is riding high and move to a higher cash position (what percentage might you suggest) while waiting it out for 3 months?
I know you cannot predict the future but is this even on your radar?

Q: Mott Capital U.S. (a guest on S.A.) commented on Nov. 11 that in reality the point of no return for high flying tech stocks may be here. Do you feel this is a fair comment? I greatly respect 5i's opinions and information received.
I was logged into 5i a previous guest was trying to find some information and it was mentioned something to do with the footer. Where would I find this footer? In times like this it is good to have 5i on our side.
Thank you.

Q: Hi 5i,
Would it be possible to indicate the last date a reply or question has been made for a forum on the Forum Home page. With so little activity members wouldn't have to enter each forum to see if there is a new entry.
Thanks
John

Q: Hi 5iR Team,
Ok, this is a three horse race between KXS, ENGH and GIB. 5iR what do you think the bookies odds are on these horses as they approach the gate. Is one is a dark horse? Will they go neck and neck down to the wire, a photo finish? Perhaps one of them just can't go the distance while another hits their stride? In other words 5iR how do you see the race going and which horse would you bet on to win or is it an each way bet (bet on all three) ? Thanks 5iR Cheers

Q: I am really enjoying the service 5i provides. I don't have any consumer cyclical companies in my portfolio. Please provide your top three picks for Canadian consumer cyclical stocks in ranked order.
I have been looking at purchasing Magna, but only have access to the funds as of today. I'm reluctant to purchase Magna given the big jump in price over the price over the past few days.
I have a 5 to 10 year investing timeline.

Q: ABC recently reported its annual and 4th qtr results. Operations looked good but they booked a massive reserve for their opioid problem which completely wiped out the company's equity. Yet some analysts have upgraded their forecasts. Presumably this didn't breach any loan covenants but I worry that it might impede future borrowings or restrict future dividend payments etc. I understand that actual payments are to be spread over many years but I still worry that it is a big negative.
Your thoughts will be appreciated.

Q: The market reaching new highs while we are still in pandemic mode has me moving more defensively to take some profits now, and move to holding more cash (yup- i know i am not supposed to try to time the market, but is this not another version of buy low and sell high instead?) . What do you think about using cash to buy 5-10% of my total portfolio with so-called black swan investments, rather than having cash sitting around waiting to be deployed for the next market drop?
