Investment Q&A

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

Q: With DND having gone up quite a lot in the last month and its lockup period coming to an end (IPO Jul 17 at $7.5, 180 days would be around Jan 11), do you expect a pullback soon? I bought at $27. What do you think about selling now at $50ish and hoping for a pullback to mid/ low $40s to buy back? It is only < 2% of my portfolio and this move would be just for fun, so not too important if it doesn't drop and I go find something else to buy. I also don't mind holding it for a year or two. I am just starting to learn to trade and would love your opinion on how you think this stock would behave in the near future.

Q: Of the above stocks which would you feel is the best to add to our TFSA and why? Could you also rank them in order best first, in case I decide to add 2.

Second related question: LSPD, CTS, and DCBO are in a non registered account They could be moved over to the TFSA but am reluctant to do so because l have a capital gain on them, 200%, 60%, and 60%. LSPD would be a partial move due to its greater value.
Thanks for all your guidance and suggestions in the Q and A. The 3 above profits are a result of 5i.

Happy New Year to all.
John

Q: How would you rank these top flyers from a futrure stock appreciation point of view. With so many positive comments, its tough to determine which is the best of the best and with limited new cash to invest, I can't own them all.

Q: I reviewed your recent answer to a question on Haivision and wanted to follow up. I have had some success profiting from DND on the IPO and a less pleasant experience with BBTV. I am wondering if you can dig a little deeper on Haivision to help me understand if it's more of an LSPD/DND/NVEI company in terms of opportunity vs BBTV which sounded exciting? Does Haivision have a large TAM and if so, is it a market already dominated by a few players or is Haivision a pioneer or one of the early entrants? Who do they compete against (US or Canada) and are they growing more quickly or more slowly than the competition? Lastly, if there are major competitors, does Haivision have any unique offerings that give them an advantage?

Thanks as always for your thoughtful and profitable replies!

Q: Two questions here, please deduct as fit.
I have a triple with DND, about8.5% of over all holdings, and am thinking of selling 50%, and buying NVEI, or would you just hold and enjoy the Christmas bonus ride for a bit longer, or a lot longer.
Two, is Peter's new fund up and running, and if so how can I buy some.
All the best, and many thanks for the great advice.

Q: I was fortunate to acquire DND at issue and have a nice profit. In reply to the recent questions about DND - specifically about 3-5 year hold for capital gains - you ranked it behind KXS, NVEI, XBC, although noting it is the largest/ safest among NVEI and XBC. My question is whether you would advise to sell all or part DND and reinvest in NVEI or XBC, which I do not presently own to maximize gains over 3-5 year time frame.

Q: DND just announced the purchase of Doprocess software from Omers for 530 million. I am a lawyer and this price of software which essentially saves real estate lawyers a bit of time to paper house deals seems extremely high and they basically admit that in their press release. Omers must be pinching themselves at their good fortune and it just reinforces my view that the Omers team is top notch. If this is an indication of the management of DND then this stock is grossly overpriced.

Q: Would like to pick your brain.
Can you give me 5 Canadian NON 5i portfolio stocks that you consider high growth and would probably put in your growth portfolios if you had the cash.

Like KXS, DSG, CSU 5 years ago or LSPD, WELL etc 2 years ago.

Thanks

This is a hypothetical question, but out of the four stocks listed, which one would you consider that has the potential to be the next Shopify, or is there another that I have not listed?

Thanks

Q: Hello,
With the media and other financial write ups all talking about this great sector rotation out of growth and tech stocks into value stocks seems a little over blown to my logical mind.
Its made to sound that stocks , in the "Packaged software " sector like
-LSPD, DND, REAL, NVEI ,VEEV etc are part of that big rotation.
When I think about this, I beg to differ and am of the opinion that these stocks will become even more relevant in the future of our economy irrespective of Covid.
Have I lost my "marbles" or being too naive to think that way?
Your feedback is always appreciated.
NB* I do own these stocks that I mentioned.
Thanks,

Q: Hi 5iR team,

Piggybacking on a question asked on Nov 10 about their recent quarterly results.
Do you have any concerns over yet another financing from DND? (the financing release came out Nov 11 after the question was asked).
They just completed one in Sept for $50 mil and now another one for $175 mil. I assume this is targeted for future acquisitions....but never assume. ;)
I do like the cloud space and they are targeted for 60+% growth next quarter so that appears attractive.
I did initiate a 1/4 position @ $21.75 and plan to do so each quarter if the Q looks good...and if it is still on your 'good' list.

Cheers,
SteveMc
