Q: At today's valuations, if you could invest in one of these today as a good solid longterm investment, which one would it be? Would you still consider BYD and FSV as fairly expensive, even after the recent drop in their respective stock prices?
Thanks.

Q: Hello 5i team,
I've held a good number of stocks you hold in your BE portfolio and I've managed to obtain a 14% compound annual total return in the last 11 years.
100% of my portfolio is in equities; I'll be shortly 77 years old and plan to reduce my equity exposure to 30%, with the above stocks in mind.
Your opinion is most valuable

Q: In the company data for PKI the earnings estimate is $1.52 which is a negative 22% growth over 2019, is this correct?
For FSV the estimate is $2.38 which is negative 3.6% over the previous year?
And for ATD.B there are no estimates, do have any estimates for next year?
Your assistance as always is greatly appreciated.
Mike

Q: Further to my question re: a bought deal. I read i that the deal was for $ 92.50 a share US that is approx $123.00 Canadian. If shares were trading at a higher level prior to the deal - approx $126.00 - ( mind you they were around the bought deal price a week ago ) what is the "bought deal" part of issuing new shares?
I have read that term a few times and seen the stock prices for stock react wildly from the announcements - I am unsure what it mean or what the implications are.

Q: Both down significantly and I own neither, but have been watching FSV and to a lesser degree, CIGI.

For exposure in real estate and seeking growth (not income) would you prefer one over the other, or are these close enough to equal as far as 5i is concerned? Any guesses as to which one bounces back faster?

Thx.

Q: I read tonight from the 5i report that FSV recently bought a commercial real estate management company. I thought when FSV and CIGI split FSV would manage residential real estate and CIGI would manage commercial real estate. If this is true is the most recent acquisition troubling as FSV is getting out of its level of expertise (managing residential real estate)? Will it now be in direct competition with CIGI?
