Q: Hi team, I hold the above in more or less equal weights and I need to sell one to fund my RIF payments for the year. Which one would you expect to show the least growth in the next year? Or would you chip away at all of them equally?

Thanks as always, Rod

Q: Hi 5i team. Your thoughts on switching ATS for either BYD or TVK. Looking for growth over extended time frame in a non registered account. Worry about the recent run up of BYD and TVK and wondering if I should wait for a pull back or if I should just stay the course after ATS pull back. Not looking to add another position in my already heavy industrial holdings.

Thank you

Q: It's been a while since we asked about SLP. Share price is largely sideways for the past year. What is your assessment of SLP and are we buyers here? I see a debt free company with next year sales and EPS growth of 12% and 21% and average price target ~40% higher than it is now.

What does the market not like?

I'm looking to add a new industrial and BYD and SLP are being considered. Where does your money go?

Q: Earlier you answered a question about Crox vs BYD, and you mentioned the valuations were 8x vs 44x. Just curious what metric you are using there (P/E?), and what is the most commonly accepted metric when discussing the high level valuation of a company and if its cheap or expensive? Thx

Q: If you were to pick quality compounders in the small cap space (US or Canada) like 3 mentioned, can you suggest a couple of good ones. I generally prefer long term horizon. Thanks. Shyam

Q: I have owned BYD for several years, and although I am not unhappy with it, I wonder if other discretionary stocks might have more growth in the future. I am thinking specifically of CROX and/or DOO. BRD strikes me as the less volatile pick but I am willing to take on more risk if the growth profile is greater. How would 5i rank these stocks for a long-term hold?

Appreciate your insight.

Q: Hi. I'm currently over weight in Consumer Defensives (BYD, PBH & PRWM) and under weight in Industrials (WSP, TFII, STN & SIS).
I'm thinking of selling PRMW and buying EIF. Based on future prospects do you think this trade makes sense. I intend to hold for a few years. Thanks!
