Investment Q&A

Q: HI,

Do you think its time to get back to tech stocks? I already own CSU. If so, can u rank the CDN teck stocks (CTS, DSG, XIT, ZQQ, KXS, LSPD, Shop) based on reliable growth and manageable volatility? if you have better ideas please include them.

Q: I have recently came across $30k unexpectedly from a former employer and was pleasantly surprised. It is currently in an mutual and it would not through my weightings out of balance. I have a well diversified and weighted portfolio with your quality names such as TD, BNS, VET, ENB, TOI, BAM, LSPD, AEM, ATZ, TRUL etc... If I was to move it from the fund to an equity only to set and forget(again) for 15 years what would you chose. At least your top 3. thx.

Q: I sold my GUD shares and would like to use this cash to add to either LSPD 1.7 % , SIS 3.4% , TIXT 1.1%. Which one would you add first or should I add to all 3? This is for a TFSA account.

Thanks

Q: Hi Peter and Staff
I believe you are still high on the above companies....looking at possible subtraction of 2 of them to consolidate a bit.

a) Are there any of the above that are not expected to be profitable in 2022?
b) How would you rank the six companies most compelling keep to first to drop if dropping any

Moderate risk tolerance
Thanks for all you do
Dennis

Q: The recent bullish move then subsequent pullback indicates that the price action is due to short covering.

Do you see another reason for the move?

Q: In march,2021 you published a special opportunities report on 10 top picks beginning with byd,csu.
We would be pleased if you could provide an update.
Would you make any changes?

Q: Hi Peter

I have question regarding the following list of “fallen angels”. These ten stocks have achieved significant drops in valuation since Dec. 31, 2020. Can you please rank these “fallen angels” in terms of the best risk-return profile over a five-to-ten-year hold? Everyone likes a bargain! Sometimes it is possible to survive a falling knife particularly if you use tungsten as a shield!

We cannot all be superman!

Q: Everyone, if you were the CAO of LSPD today what would be your strategic plan for the next 12 months? Clayton

Q: Dear 5i Team,

If there was an option to totally liquidate all of the investments someone had and start with a clean slate, which 20 stocks US and Canada (10 each) would you recommend for a 10 year horizon?

Thank you for your advice as always,

Much appreciated.

Q: Hello,
I would like to rebalance my technology exposure.
You mentioned putting in stink bids to pick up bargains.
Could you tell me what you suggest for stink bids on SHOP, LSPD, TOI and SYZ.

Thank you very much

Q: I have 1/2 position in these names and down. I recall you generally don't recommend averaging down. Would you add here for the long term?

Specifically about LSPD, has anything changed at the company except for the CEO?

Thank you,

Q: I've held these thru the drop, and feel it's the least of the evils to continue holding, as they both have good revenues and margins.
is it too late to sell??

Q: Like a previous subscriber wrote, we also appreciate your most recent report: specifically, the numeric historical context of this current correction, the sectors affected and those most likely to benefit.
We are invested in each of the three of the 5i portfolios and over the next 1-2 months plan to make staggered and targeted contributions.
Could you suggest 3 or 4 companies from each portfolio where the winds of sentiment are excessively negative and would be attractive to purchase with this approach?
This is for a 5+ years hold.
Thank you

Q: In line w/ sentiments expressed in the latest market update (thank you for that), would you put any of these names in the "likely beyond repair column"? Or do they all fall firmly in the "damaged but not broken" column?

Q: Hi 5i
What Game Plan would you consider executing for the following situations...........?
For all these stocks I have been holding off taking action as there has been no new information to support any action. Now given rapid price decline, I have become concerned about share restructuring and shareholders being diluted to death for the micro caps.
I will be waiting for earnings on the ones still to be released.
While you do not want to hear it, all these except XBC/LSPD were 5i induced purchases so some thoughts on possible action at this point would be appreciated.
None of these are causing me a problem except for being down.
As a Portfolio Manager, how best to manage these positions inside a broadly diversified Portfolio?
If they are to be kept, at some point I will have to either add to the tiny positions or get rid of them. But when and on what information?


TFSA Holdings (where the growth is supposed to be)
QST - down 40%. Size is now at half position size at this point.
XBC - down 38%. Size is now back to near full position size after riding the round trip.
STC - was up 25% and now down 20%, Half position size.

Taxable Account
AT - Down 19%. Sitting on half position since buying on Jan 12/22
ANRG - Down 37%. Sitting on less than half position since buying on Feb 2/22
LSPD - Down 64% on a poorly executed Options trade. Hold only 1/3 position.

And KXS which disgusts me as I knew I should have sold while I watched it at $229. Position size is full position.

Thanks
Dave
