Q: Hello Peter and all at 5i: I am reading about "Power Corp unit backs CSU copycat Valsoft " and I believe there are more who would like to copy CSU. Do you feel CSU is so far ahead one shouldn't worry too much? Having 5i to hold our hand is very important to this investor. Thank you Barb

Q: Constellation Software stock has been drifting lower for past 4-6 weeks, after a spectacular run during 2024. There appears to be some selling pressure again today, while mostly market is up.
If it is just profit taking, what will be a decent level to add more shares ?

Q: I am only interested in holding Canadian Long Term Compounders. I am looking for companies with decent ROIC, ROE and good balance sheets and preferably owner/operators with skin in the game. In the Canadian space of my portfolio I hold CSU, ATD and TFII. My question is could you provide to me 10 small and mid cap Canadian names that you would feel would make the best long term compounders to hold for at least 5-10 years.

Q: I see a few people asking about when to buy CSU. As you said, historically speaking, there has never really been a bad time to buy this stock.
Each year, I max out my TFSA contribution in January and I buy as much CSU stock as I can (started buying at $600/share). I started doing that years ago based on your recommendation and it's one of my biggest gains. I'm up massively and I never think once about what the price is when I submit my buy order.
There aren't many stocks like that in my portfolio but I stand by CSU.
Robert

Q: Hello, at this point in time, is CSU still a buy at the current price? What makes the price go up as relentlessly as it has been the past 5 few years? Thanks!
