Investment Q&A

Q: I am starting an RESP fund for my new son (initial investment maxed at $5000). I would like to begin with a somewhat aggressive growth-seeking small portfolio, and to then gradually add one or two stocks each year for diversification up to about 8 or 10 stocks in total. For my opening purchase, I am considering three stocks -- Kinaxis (KXS), Constellation (CSU), and Knight Therapeutics (GUD). Two questions: This seems to be a decent time to buy these particular stocks, would you agree? And would you replace any these stocks with any others? (I'm open to anything growthy, but have been considering Shopify (SHOP), Photon Control (PHO), Enghouse (ENGH).) Thanks, and great job.
PS: Should I wait to buy until a few days after the BoC rate decision, or has the market reaction more or less already played out?

Q: I am underweight in Engh and have taken a hit on it since buying in at 60+. My tech holdings are a cumulative 18%. Would you recommend a full position now ( to 20%) after the big drop or sit on the sidelines. I have a long time horizon, and am wondering if the bloom is off the rose for Engh, or should I wait for the next quarterly earnings.

Thanks as always.

Q: per your latest addition to the balanced portfolio, I plan to add CAE to my portfolio. To do this, however, I need to sell one of my other tech stocks. which amongst KXS,CSU,GIB.a,DSG,ENGH,CLS,OTEX would you suggest to sell at this time. All have a 2% weighting.
thanks

Q: Starting to look attractive is this a good time to initiate a position? Thanks. Shyam

Q: First, great job 5i Team. Really have learned a lot over the years.

ENGH dropped 10.57% closing at $55.00 on Friday. Can you please provide your thoughts?

Also can you please provide your thoughts on the Canadian oil sector.

Thank you !!

Q: Enghouse off over 10% today. Apparently some analyst at Goldman Sachs suggested we might be in a tech bubble and suddenly everyone is dumping all tech stocks. What do you think?

Q: would you add on this weakness or did cc indicate ??

Q: How often does Enghouse meet their earnings expectation? Do you think this company now with the drop in share price is a buy or hold if owned?

Q: Please comment on earnings??

Q: Enghouse is down sharply this morning by almost 4%. Is there something that the large institutional investors know or is something else causing this drastic drop on no real news? The second quarter Fiscal 2017 release is scheduled after market close on Thursday, June 8, 2017. Are some large holders of the stock expecting a poor quarter result? What are your expectations for the second quarter?

Q: Engh has moved nicely in the past couple of weeks. Is there some explanation for this movement and your projections for this stock would be appreciated

Q: Greetings, Peter & Co.
I currently hold AGT at a profit. I would like to replace it with another agriculture stock, small cap or mid cap, that has some growth and some dividend. Failing this, I would consider a moderate sized tech company that meets these criteria.
With appreciation,
Ed

Q: Any reason for 4.1% appreciation today?It has broken through Resistance of $60-61.5 with new @ $64.Reporting on June 6.Please provide expected Rev.& Eps.What is your opinion & its history of meeting expecttions.Thanks for u normal great views & services.

Q: Big drop in Enghouse today.
Do you think there has been another development at Google or amazon?

Q: Can you rank the stocks best to worst in your opinion. These are the stock s that are in my technology sector (17% weighting). Would you add, swap or remove any of them? My portfolio holdings/thoughts are very similar to your BE Portfolio. Thank you and great job.

Q: Can you give me the projected revenue and earnings for 2017 and 2018 (and 2019 if available) for these two companies, thanks.

Q: Hello
I want to add 2 growth stocks to my portfolio. Of the listed stocks can I please have your 2 top choices.
Thanks

Q: Hello 5i,
If you had to choose between Enghouse and Open Text today which would you choose for growth over the next 2-3 years. I own a small amount of each and want to consolidate.
Thank you
Dave

Q: I am looking for growth within a 7 to 10 year time frame and would like you to rank Enghouse, Spin Master, and Envirostar in order of preference. I have a diversified portfolio and would be comfortable adding one or all three to my current holdings. Could you provide a one liner for each equity outlining their merits. I included EVI as a possible US growth stock based on a previous answer you provided the past week. Thank you.

Q: I own both these IT companies and both are below my full position of 4%. Which one would you choose to add to at this time. I am a long term investor, to be perfectly honest I tend to marry my stocks and am reluctant to give up hope. I still own MCR Macro Enterprises. Could you also advise me on if there is any hope for this stock if there is an energy recovery. Thank you for your service.
