Investment Q&A

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

Q: Morning 5i,
I'm wondering what to do with my shares of BUS that are putting a lot of red on my statement, and so I also wonder if that company might be an attractive acquisition for NFI or any other acquirer out there? Seems like BUS could be gotten pretty cheap.
I look forward to hearing what you think. Thanks!

Q: It was noted in the recent quarterly release that Constellation has "lowered the hurdle rate for deals of $100m or more". Does this mean that the company will accept/expect lower rates of return on these larger deals? If so, will this not reduce the profitability of those deals and finally, does this imply that CSU has indeed started to "hit the wall" in terms of growth? I hope I am wrong as this has been (thanks to 5i) one of my best investments!

Appreciate your insight.

Q: Hi 5i team, Regarding my question on Apr 26 on foreign properties to be reported on T1135 to CRA, your answer was “If you are buying Canadian-based ETFs that hold foreign securities, then no. If the ETFs are US-based (US domiciled, US management companies) then yes.” Please expand and clarify your previous answer so I am not making assumptions. Are you saying if I buy ETFs from Vanguard or Blackrock then they are considered ‘foreign’? How about if I buy ETFs from Canadian subsidiaries of Vanguard, Blackrock, iShares? Or are you saying all ETFs listed on the Canadian exchanges are Not considered as ‘foreign’? Examples would be useful. Thanks for the clarification.

Q: Hi 5i team - Radius Gold has tripled over the past couple of days no doubt due to positive recent drill results. Volume has been extremely high especially when compared to average volume. Could you provide a few fundamentals such as cash on hand, debt, insider ownership/recent trading, and anything else you think would be of significance. Thank you.

Q: I am investigating where to invest my proceeds from KWH.UN once funds are received. I see that back on Mar 25th you recommended SPB. Since then it has been removed from your Model Income Portfolio. I also see that you have recommended PKI over SPB. I have about 2.7% of SPB in my portfolio currently. I am interested more in income then growth as we are now living off investment income. Funds that will be received are about 1.1% of total invested. I aim for 5% in a holding so would prefer 1 rather the both. Which would be preferable in your opinion? Is there a better ETF or other company?

Q: How would you screen for momentum stocks? What would be the criteria for getting in and out? I'm looking for info on how to make these trades for short and medium term. I'm ok with medium to high risk and will be working with 5% of my portfolio.
Please deduct as many credits as needed. Thanks.
