Investment Q&A

Q: I'm 50% down on both of these companies. I'm ready to throw in the towel on either if not both. Do you believe they will recover in the next 2 years? Would you rather sell one and buy the other, would you just hold for now, or would you sell both and buy something else? Take as many credits as needed. Thanks

Q: Hello 5I,
I own the above 2 companies and am down 25% and 40% respectively. Just wondering if you still believe in these 2 companies and think they are worth sticking around for.
Thanks
TM

Q: hello 5i:
today, would you sell (if already owned), AC; and buy EIF (not owned). Why or why not? Would there be 3 or 4 income stocks you'd prefer to EIF in the Industrial space?
thanks

Q: I purchase this stock in 2019 for 50.00 a share. It just keeps dropping and dropping.
With it now around 17.00 per share, is it finally a sell?
If so, is there another stock that could be purchased to hopefully make up some of the losses.

Thank you,
John G.

Q: Hi Everyone at 5i! What are thoughts about Air Canada as a long term hold. I bought it during the pandemic in hopes that there would be a good surge in growth when things reopened . I recently read an article that the business travel end of the airline industry may not be so rosy because a lot of companies are going the more cost efficient Zoom route. With inflation and the cost of gas making travel more expensive recreationally, there may not be that quick come back. Your thoughts? Cheers, Tamara

Q: Hi there, I am a big fan of your Balanced Equity Portfolio. I like the more growth oriented names in it and was wondering if you were to swap out the less growth names for names that have a little more risk but for higher return, which would you swap and for what names? Thanks!

Q: Hello 5i,
What are your three favourite North American airline stocks in order with a brief reason why?
Thank you so much!

Q: Unless I'm mistaken, which is very possible I believe AC reported earnings.

If yes, may we have your analysis and conclusion please.

Q: I understand that fuel is a major cost for airlines. Do you think we should sell out of Aircanada due to steep rise in fuel?

Q: We'd all love to get a look at a few stock prices from 5 years in the future. Get a big winner, or avoid a big loser, with no risk. If you could get a list of the prices of 10 Canadian stocks 5 years from now, which ones would you pick? Let's say stocks with a min market cap of roughly $1 billion Cdn.

Q: Hi 5i, do you think AC will ever become profitable? If yes, when please?

Q: Well it seems that market might like at least one of our stocks.

Can we have your comments on the quarter please


Sheldon

Q: Comments on these two? What is the reasonable upside potential?

Is Chorus going to bring the dividend back?

Q: hello 5i:
We're looking for a decent income stock and are considering EIF. We already own about a 1.5% position in AC. Are the companies businesses too similar in that they are both tied to the airline business or is there sufficient difference to own both? And what are your thoughts on the present valuation of EIF?
thanks

Q: I have KXS, CAE, BAM,TOU,AC. Would you recommend to add to some of these stocks or would you recommend to buy different stocks? What stocks would you recommend to buy?

Q: With reference to Peter’s article entitled Five Investment Themes To Keep An Eye On In 2022, what 2 or 3 stocks would you recommend in the travel & leisure sector & the gold sector? Thanks … Cal

Q: Please give me your analysis of AC and BA. Would you buy at these levels? Any alternatives? Long term growth, mid - high risk investor. Thanks in advance.

Wishing all of you at 5i and also the contributors here Happy Holidays and a Prosperous 2022!!!

Q: Hi Peter and staff, Happy Holidays.

These are my holdings in TFSA account. Can you please suggest two more names, Canadian or US to add for the 2022 contribution.

Thank you.

Joe

Q: I've been waiting to initiate a position in either AC or CAE for a minimum two year hold but I can't decide on which one. My brain tells me this is a good time to enter either or both, but I am concerned about the sector in general.

Can you give me some reasons for both companies why one should buy today and some reasons that gives one pause on the names?

Of the two, does 5i have a preference and would you start a position today in either name?

Thank you.

Q: I own AC in my TFSA ( bought at 24 ) for a Covid rebound play. Traffic numbers are looking good across the industry, now I am trying to ascertain the effect of high oil prices on the company. Do they have long term fuel contracts and at what price? What % of costs is fuel ? Any metrics on this is appreciated. Derek
