Investment Q&A

Q: What are your thoughts on IBKR as it's stock price seems to be breaking out and over 1/2 its business is retail investors.

Hood has done "tremendous" as of late, do you think IBKR could be next to outperform?

thnx

Dave

Q: I'd like to either start a 4% position in TRI or bring the other 4 positions up closer to 5%. Also I could just start a smaller position in TRI and bring the others up a bit, distributing funds across the names. If you could rank order these names, it might help me decide. As is, now MSFT and AMZN are quite small positions. Would any be affected by Tariffs? Just not sure how bullish you are on TRI vs the others. Thank you very much for continued great investment analysis.

Q: How significant is for BEP the recent contract it signed with Alphabet? The Market seams to like it with a +7% increase in the stock price but is it warranted?

Q: Hi, I'm thinking of initiating a position in one of these. Thinking of three plus years and the highest growth. How would you rank these in order, and please give a good entry/price. Please note that I just submitted a question but forgot to include DOL and GIB.A. Thank you.

Q: Well happy days for all chip companies. With the recent about face and being able to sell "lower" end chips again to the Chinese market how do you see this playing out for these 2 companies and others? With NVDA hitting a 4trillion value without being able to sell in this market where could their valuation go from here in your opinion?
What percentage of the Chinese market did they have prior to the embargo that has now been lifted?

Thanks

Q: Everyone, as an example Brookfield has a number of companies under management. I assume CSU will be doing the same. How many companies under the same umbrella should you have. BAM and CSU are great companies with superior management but when is enough enough? Clayton

Q: Given the significant run up of CLS in the past year would you still consider this a strong buy right now, or would it be prudent to wait for the next "dip", or is it already over bought? Thanks.

Q: Having bough BX at its lows of this April in the low $120's, I am debating trimming and re deploying. Based on metrics; P/S, P/B, P/B and other relevant measures; is there still potential for a higher run up. Analysts have a slight downside rating.

Q: Could you provide some insight to the negative earnings market activity? NOI was up but EPS down, did not look all that bad?

Appreciate all your great help! Ted.

Q: I am interested in 3 growth ETFs....70 to 80% equities. A second question..what do think about investing some allocation in the military sector. If yes could you suggest 3 top stock picks and 2 etfs ( if available) Thank you

Q: Over the very long term, say 50 years or 100 years, longer if you know, what is the average return on the US and Canadian stock market including dividends? Say for the S&P 500 and the TSX Index. How have more recent returns, say over the last 10 or 20 years, compared to the very long term average? Do you expect the long term average to be a reasonable expectation for the next several decades or are there market forces at work that would tend to increase or decrease those expectations? I understand the last question requires a bit of guesswork.

Q: Previously had 3 U.S. ETFS for U.S. healthcare but haven't been happy about these.
Could you please suggest 3 or 4 U.S. healthcare companies that might work out for a 5 yr+ return. Please put in order of ratings and advise why you like them.
THank you
Margaret

Q: Good morning

What is ATD's average Historical P/E ratio, say for the past 5 or 10 years?

What is the High and Low Historical P/E ratio, the range, during that time period?

Dividing ATD's current stock price of $69 by their reported net income per share of $2.72 yields a Historical P/E ratio of 25.4.

Am I doing what seems like a simple calculation correctly?

I ask because I am seeing a Future P/E ratio for ATD in the financial press of 17.3, which implies a large increase in net income compared with their last fiscal year, a decline in stock price, or some combination of the two,

How should one interpret this dramatic change in Future vs Historical P/E for ATD?

And finally, what is 5i's view on how expensive ATD's price is currently, compared with past history? Does 5i support accumulating ATD shares at this point?

Thank you.

Edward

Q: What are your thoughts on this stock now? Especially considering it's down 35% since beggining of the year, good time to buy or would you not recommend it?

Q: This is a relatively new ETF. Appears well diversified and with an interesting family of stocks. What would your thoughts be? Is there other ETFs with the same target?
Thanks,
Murray

Q: Please comment on nano one news today.

Thank you

Q: Hi there, I asked a question about this etf and you responded with a link to a previously asked question but that precious question isn’t about the etf I was referring to. Thanks!

Q: Greetings 5i, much recent Q&A on Zedcor. How long will it take the company to grow into its current valuation? How strong is the balance sheet and profitability? Thank you.

Q: Your thoughts on OKLO please…..
Thank you.

Q: I have a low cost base on MSTR and it has become wildly outsized as a position in my portfolio. I want to maintain significant exposure to BTC and crypto more generally but diversify this exposure to maintain my exposure levels while reducing the company specific risks that I currently have. To keep this outside of being direct investing advice, if you were to start a small crypto portfolio using $10,000 and wanted MSTR to be a part of it, what else would you buy and in what position size to enjoy diversified crypto exposure? Note, it doesn't have to be all directly tied to BTC if you think ETH or SOL deserve attention.

Thanks!
