Q: From Yahoo, they show the following:
KXS, 2018 EPS/.98 = PE 97.6 & 2019 EPS/1.33 = PE 71.9
Growth next 5 years est. of 19%

CSU, 2018 EPS/26.88 = PE 35.1 & 2019 EPS/31.94 = PE 29.5
Growth next 5 years est. of 16.6%
They say figures are CDN not US.

My question, what is the reason I should not sell all my KXS & buy CSU
based on above numbers?
Thank You

Q: Prices are down quite a bit from their highs.
Do you think one of the reasons for the decline is a switch by some investors from growth to value?
If so and faced with higher interest rates in the future it might time for you to consider starting a value equity model portfolio
Please comment

Q: Hi all at 5i, I have about 45k invested with only 5k in cash. I own all of the above names and was wondering if you were to free up some cash which of these stocks would you trim. If you think 5k in cash is enough, do you think any of these names would be good to trade for another name? Do you have any concerns over any of these names at this moment in time.

Feel free to deduct as many points as necessary.

Thanks,
Dan

Q: Hi 5i Team

I am starting a portfolio for my 20 year daughter and am looking for a suggestion for her first stock. She will not be needing the money for many years so it is a long term hold for her TSFA. I am open to Canadian and foreign stocks. What would you suggest?

Thanks

Q: I have a 3.5% position in KXS (up 20%) and am contemplating selling it to buy CSU. You have often said that you consider CSU to be a safer holding, can you comment on the growth for the two companies.
Thanks

Q: While FB was plummeting I sold my shares and locked in some gains. I used the money to buy shares in Constellation Software. I believe CSU will recover faster and keep growing. I feel that with the news of a slower growing user base and users being on FB for less time, it will take the market a long time to regain it's confidence in the company. Do you agree. Or should I just get back in at this lower price?

Q: Got a bit of cash to add a new position to my RRSP. Which one of these names do you think has the most growth potential over the next few years? Feel free to suggest other names as well (prefer Canadian) - I currently own TSGI, KXS, and MAXR in this account. Thx.

Q: I was trying to find a question about this but without success. This is such an expensive stock and I know you like and it has done well. I wonder why they would not do a split to make the stock more affordable? I notice also that you do not have it any of your sample portfolios - is this why?
Thank you
