Investment Q&A

Q: Would you invest in Lumine or Topicus in a TFSA?

Q: Thanks for all of the great information you provide!
I have been fortunate enough to follow your information and belief in these three companies. I'm sure I am far from alone in having them make up a relatively large percentage of my portfolio due to their recent performance.
Should these 3 be considered separately or do I need to combine them as a percentage of my assets. I'm certain bad new for one will bring down the others at least temporarily but can they act on their own?
Thanks as always
Richard

Q: Hello Peter,
I know you have answered this about Topicus special dividend. I find it odd that in the early stages of the company's existence , it is paying out a special dividend. Could this be a sign that the company sees little appetite for acquiring companies and will focus on organic growth? What is a good etf that excludes the magnificent 7 , SPY minus magnificent 7.. Appreciate it and thanks for the service.

Q: Is a investor entitled to the special dividend & what is the XDiv date? Txs for u usual great services & views

Q: These stocks have had some very nice gains over the last few months. CLS, DE, DRX, EQB, LMN, PAY, TOI, TVK. If you held a partial position in these and wanted to add to the position to create a full position, which ones would you just buy at the current market price despite big run up? Are there some that you would try to buy at a somewhat lower price? If so, what price would you use?

Q: If CSU owns about 50% of TOI, do they also get 50% of the total special dividend being paid out (as cash)?

Q: It's not really a question but a testimony, I bought $10,000.00 worth of CSU several years ago. When it spun out TOI, I sold some of my CSU to buy more TOI, and when they spun out LUM I sold some CSU to buy more LUM. I have also sold some CSU to consolidate profits (this was probably a mistake). I now have $88,000.00 from my $10,000.00 investment. Thank you 5i for my 1,000% investment.

Q: What's your take on the special div?

It's funny, many of the people (non experts) I follow on Twitter/X aren't impressed, as everyone would rather see that money stored up to continue with acquisitions. I guess CSU/TOI/LMN has raised their own bars so high a special div seems small compared with the overall returns people have some to expect from them....

Q: Hi Team,
LNN as I had somewhat feared has taken a huge hit with the preferred share set up. Same thing was done with the Toi spin off and it took over a year to recover from. This to me is managements payday for doing the spin offs . They paid themselves these shares it seems to me . Question is do you think the preferred share deals with Toi and now LMN were a bit greedy or excessive on managements part . LMN seems to be a large hit worth over half of the companies market cap. Will take a long time to recoup that amount of cash at today’s free cash flow rates . This all being said ; analysts must have known about this yet the stock had previously run up anyways . Comments of any concern please .

Thanks ,
Shane

Q: Are there a few Canadian and/or US companies that are “hiding in plain sight” that have the potential to be long term compounders similar to a CSU, MKL, ROP etc?

Q: I have a question about Topicus.com Inc

Do you still regard TOI as favourably as you did in March 2023 and consider it to be growing as rapidly in the European theatre as CSU does in North America?

Q: Have both Lmn & Toi.Bought Toi some time ago @ $125.20. U slightly prefer Lmn,one of u top favourities, over Toi per recent posts.Both reached new highs yesterday.Debating about selling Toi to add to Lmn Or keeping both.Appreciate u usual great advices & great services

Q: I have 7000$ to allocate into my TFSA which of these companies would be your favourite and which would be your least favourite, please rate them out of 10(1 meaning least favourite and 10 being most favourite). Lastly at what entry price would you be a buyer of these companies? Please indicate an entry price for each company.

Thanks guys

Q: Hi Gang
What is the small company that was spun off of constillation
Thanks Mike B

Q: What are your top buys (3) right now if you were investing in a mix of growth, quality, and somewhat reasonable valuation? With your answer/explanation can you include fwd p/e or whatever relevant metrics vs peers?

Also, what's a quality stock or two you'd like to buy but would want to see come down a bit/something you'd be looking to pick up in a broad market selloff?

Q: I have a position in TOI and with the recent run, have some decent profit. You have mentioned a few times that TOI is expensive. Does it make sense to sell half my position and purchase LMN or do you think there is some positive momentum here and let TOI run a little more?

Q: What would you view as being the top Canadian compounders over say a 10-15 year period. I'm thinking CSU and ATD. What others for investors that want compounding growth over many years.

Q: Hello Peter,
What is happening to Ivanhoe electric? It is on a downward trend. I am thinking of selling my toi, and lmn, to invest in CSU as everyday i see csu ticking higher. Does this strategy makes sense? Also, with nice dividend history of fortis, why is it still so low whereas hydro one seems to be ticking higher. thanks very much

Q: I am considering starting new positions or adding to existing positions in a number of these companies. In What order would you purchase these companies, from first to last? Is there any of these companies you would not currently buy? Looking at 3 to 5 year timeline..

Apologies for number of companies!! Please deduct appropriately.

Thanks
Tim
