Investment Q&A

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

Q: I am interested by growth companies that have a lot of potential, and preferably relatively secure and not extremely volatile. I thought of the following companies: LSPD, NVEI. TOI, GSY, TAIG and LEV. If you would have to buy those companies, in what order would you buy them. Feel free to include other ones that are not on this list or exclude some of these if you think that they are not appropriate.

Q: Hi 5iTeam - Would you consider Nuvei a buy today for a full position or is its price mostly factoring in future growth. The timeline is 3 to 5 years. Also could you provide an update on insider ownership and recent trading. Are there any fundamentals that you think should be noted. Also do you have any suggestions for a similar company with good growth prospects - one Canadian and one U.S. if possible. More if you think it applies. Thanks.

Q: I'm looking to reduce the overall amount of positions. Of my tech names which would you suggest selling?

From what I can gather you prefer NVDA to AMD and would suggest one of either SHOP or LSPD. Is this accurate? Other suggestions or ideas to pair down?

Thank you very much

Q: How would you rank the above 3 stocks for growth? CTS is much smaller but valuation appears to be better than the other 2 - can you please comment? Is debt a concern with any of these stocks? NVEI seems to be about the same size as LSPD - do you feel it is currently over-valued like LSPD? I recall 5i recently decreased the rating on LSPD from B+ to B.
Thank you!

Would you please rank these 12 stocks in order for the likelihood, in your opinion, they will double in price in the next 5 years. Roughly how many of these 12 would you expect to achieve that target? Assuming no major long term market melt down which would preclude good stock performance over this period.

Q: I get why rising rates would help good 'ol fashion bank stocks. While fintech names seem to be considered more growth oriented, wouldn't higher rates ultimately help those stocks as well?

I own the names above. Any issues with any of them?

Thanks
