Investment Q&A

Q: Any info on DNG would be appreciated.

Q: Hi 5i,

Currently have a large portion of my investments in equities and I am looking to invest in Bonds for the sake of diversification.

Could you provide your best ideas for Bond ETFs or any similar investment products that I should consider? This is for non-registered account.

Thank you.

Q: Hello team,

It is still January, so Happy New Year!

Would you swap PINs with 45% loss in an RRSP account for a new investment in AMTM.

AMTM is in a few areas that may become a main focus for Trump Administration. The stock has gained 20% in the past month. Would you say that there is a cup formation in the chart as the sellers may be done? Is the current price a good entry point?

What do you think of their debt level and lack of profitability? Will the situation improve meaningfully in the next couple of years. As you can guess, I hold the stocks for a long period. Often way too long!

Wishing everyone at 5i a healthy and happy 2025!

Q: Good morning.

Please provide your assessment of AGF.B.

Is it timely to invest in this company now?

Q: Hi Team,
At the time of this question PRL is up approx 6% and GSY 3%. Just wondering if there is anything sector related to account for the positive move today being that both these names are moving up together today? GSY is finally starting to build some steam...any comments? Perhaps share buybacks at GSY?

Thanks,
Shane.

Q: Hello, I have held Northland for 20 years, gradually building a full position, but it is now coming back to my average cost. I understand renewables are not trendy these days, so should I 1) hold on to it, 2) add to it (no longer a full position now) or 3) let it go. FYI, I also have BEPC in renewables and EMA and FTS as utilities as well. It is part of a dividend portfolio and the div is good…Thanks!

Q: Hi everyone,

I have a hard time using the MARKET DATA to compare similar companies. For example, which ratios would you use for NVDA, AMD, MU, and others in the same space if you wish. It would be nice to have the same info for other industries, so we might be a bit more self-reliant . P/E are sky-high these days and seem not to matter anymore. Thanks.

Q: Dear 5i
Do you prefer PWR or POWL and why ?
Also VHI seems to be one of your top picks for small cap growth stocks but the valuation ie P/E seems quite high . Does its growth rate justify the valuation ?
Thanks

Q: In the last 12 months, the canadian dollar has fallen on average about 72 cents to now under 70 cents approximately, therefore if I understood the hedge vs unhedged issue correctly, VSP should have outperformed VFV. it looks like the complete opposite in 1 year returns. Why is that ?

Q: Hello 5i Team,

Looking into your crystal ball for 2025, is this the year for AMD to finally show some stock price appreciation? I have held it for several years now, and am still underwater by over 12%.

I’m losing some patience, considering the relative growth in NVIDIA (which I’ve done exceptionally well with and still hold, thanks to 5i). I notice that in recent questions, some 5i members also hold AMD, and I’m wondering if you guys are not losing patience, as well?

Do you have three other tech or AI-related picks (any cap size) that you have a much stronger conviction in than AMD, for a three-year hold? Or, is there a potential catalyst on the horizon that might indicate staying the course with AMD?

Thanks very much,

Brad

Q: Would you consider Revenue Growth the leading indicator of a companies liklihood to succeed and grow its share price provided properly managed?

Seems todays most successful stock market darlings have all had tremendous revenue growth albeit not necessarily Profitable during their early days of rapid Revenue growth.

If I were to look for 2 or 3 US and Canadian Mid Cap companies most likely to lead the rest of the market with staggering Revenue growth over the next 2-5 years which do you think these might likely be?

Q: I currently own the above ETFs in my unregistered account and they have performed well. I have funds to be invested in my LIF account and am considering purchasing one or more ETFs. How would you rank these ETFs for a LIF account? Would you suggest equal contributions to these ETFs? Are there other ETFs that you would recommend for a LIF account? Thank you.

Q: It has been a few years since a question on this company.
Can you provide your excellent fundamental analysis of this company and their future growth opportunities.
I am thinking of taking an initial position in my TFSA.
Thanks for all you do!!!

Q: Comments on news and ROAD decline?

Q: hello 5i:
can you comment on the recent short report by Muddy Waters? How reputable are they? Does FTAI stating they will resubmit recent results add to the credibility of the short report? And, in your opinion, your thoughts on FTAI as an investment going forward.
thanks

Q: Hello Peter and team,
Any idea why well health is trending down? For AI exposure would amzn, msft, and goog be good plays or would I be better off with etf, CHAT. Sorry i was not able to get the symbol from your search list.. Thank you

Q: Hello. I have a small position in AQN that gets smaller all the time. It’s down 63% and it represents 0.5% of the portfolio. Do I sell and quit looking at it or should I buy more? Thanks

Q: Thoughts on OGD, would it be a good holding at current levels?

Q: Hi 5i - what would be your top dividend paying stocks (minimum 4% yield) to invest in at the moment? My ENB position is getting too large, so would like to trim.

Thanks, Neil

Q: Trump has said he will suspend leases for wind projects, onshore and offshore. A couple of questions in re BEPC

1. how much of BEP's projects (including those in development ) are wind

2. Of their wind projects, what proportion is in the US?

3. Given the huge ("unstoppable") demand for electrification, plus the fact Trump is not the customer buying it, does it really matter what Trump says about wind?

In short, how much damage can Trump do to my BEP stock?
