Investment Q&A

Q: thoughts on the quarter please?

Q: Trane reported good earnings this week but took a drop after reporting. Can you please comment on earnings and why it may have dropped?

Q: I had been thinking about but Tencent for a long time. With the recent bargain basement price, I'm still willing to take a small punt despite the current risk. It's a long term play.

But perhaps I'm too incautious, even for a 'play'. When I tried to buy on Questrade, I got the following message: "You're attempting to buy enter a position in an OTC/PINK sheet listed security. The following risks may limit your ability to sell your position in the future...".

Can you explain what 'OTC/PINK sheet listed security' means. I take this as a serious warning sign but am still tempted to buy under the belief that China would be shooting itself in the foot to undermine the company long-term.

Q: HI
one of the articles in the Globe and mail financial page indicated that next year; there would not be enough supply to the used cars for sale
I already own MG and Linamar, I wonder what other stocks would be a buying opportunity based on the above imbalance of the lack of supply for used cars to
consumers, ACQ has gone up alot in a year
thanks
Michael

Q: Hello, with the recent chip shortage do you think this represents a great buying oppurtunity and if so which ETF would you reccommend and why,or risk aside which would be the best companyNVDA,ASML,AMD or TSM and do you think this is a good oppurtunity despite the supply issues, if one of these companies can get an edge on supply i would think the sky would be the limit given the significant demand ....thoughts, thank you for this service and all that you do.

Q: I submitted a previous question about my sister converting her portfolio from a robo manager to self-directed. The last question dealt with the equities side (75%) while this one deals with the fixed income side (25%).

My suggestions to her all come from what I've gleaned from your website, so I'm really asking for confirmation and criticism here.

She wants 10% in gold so I've recommended 5% of Sprott's PHYS.TO and 5% of AEM.TO. We realize these are not fixed income but plan to use them as a long term hold (insurance) and not speculatively. For other 15%, I have suggested VAB.TO and XSB.TO.

Some of her funds are in USD so she could buy US or Global bonds if that would add safety. It seems that would complicate things unnecessarily, a main objective being to keep it simple.

Q: Hi 5i team,

Kindly suggest a replacement with a better growth profile than Parkland Corp for a 10+ year hold in a registered account. Preferably in the Consumer Cyclical or Industrial sector.

Q: Hi team,

Could you list 1 or 2 companies in each tsx sector that make the best candidates for a quick trade in the next couple of months.

Thanks a bunch!

Q: Hi Peter/Ryan when buying a stock is there a general rule on where it's better to buy it, in an RRSP account or a TFSA and where would CAE fit in best. Thanks for all your insights.

Q: Can you rank and rate these (10 being most positive) for growth potential over 3 years?

Q: What are your thoughts on their earnings? Should you consider a hold, buy more or sell. I currently own 2% for dividends. Is dividend safe and what is the payout

Thanks for the great service.

Q: Hi team,

Where do you speculate the price of oil is going from here, given all the problems with the reopening and of course the tensions in the Middle East.

I think people would rather go back to work by still wearing masks and getting vaccinated and the tensions in the Middle East is more likely to escalate due to proxy wars between Iran and Israel, as well as the likelihood of the Nuclear Deal failing or dragging inconclusively.

If the price is on the rise because of the above, then which of 2 Canadian oil companies you think make the best candidates for a quick trade and why.

I am holding VET for long-term return, and I was thinking of CNQ or CVE for this purpose.

Thanks for your insight! Always! :)

Q: Your comments on SKLZ today's earning release please. Can you provide more details about this company? It looks a big miss today, is it time to buy at dip?

Thanks,

Q: I have a 1/2 position in Lightspeed which I've acuired at an average cost of $61. I would like to begin adding more starting now. Although I generally don't try to time my purchases per se, I have preferred with LPSPD to look for slight pull backs given its volatility. Based on current circumstances, if one were looking for a "good" entry point price wise, what would that be, and if one were looking for a "very good" entry point price wise following a pull back what would that be?

I have the same basic question about 2 of your other recommendations I currently own - ATZ and EGLX. Based on current circumstances what do you consider to be a good entry point and a very good entry point for each of them?

Thank you. waiting for a pull back, but also content to purchasena With today's positive earnings release and the likehood of continued la ped on

Q: Dear 5i team,
My TFSA is not well balanced, and I am also trying to get the allocation mix correct in my RRSP too.
I have MX in my TFSA which is $1000 in the red. I have no technology in my TFSA- would it be smart to take the MX loss to take advantage of TOI’s likely growth - while getting to a better balance in sectors at the same time?

Thank you for your thoughts on this possible tactic, appreciated!
