Q: Hello 5i team,

Here is a recent answer you provided on BN: “Given its strong management team and fundamentals, we feel that BN is currently at an attractive level. It appears to have found some support around the low ~$40”. How do you explain that TD’s Webbroker shows a P/E Ratio of 79.1 for BN?

Q: Dear amazing 5i employee,

I trust that you are well!

An analyst at 5i noted (in answer to one of questions) that there are dozens of trading opportunities available in the market right now. Would you be able to list some of those opportunities? By trading opportunities I mean simple trades (buy low, sell high).



Yours kindly,
David

Q: Hope you and the team (and readers) had a nice long weekend.

What looks “cheap” to you right now? I recognize that sometimes things are cheap for a reason. But in your view, what has been punished too much and likely to appreciate from here? 3m was one that I was considering as it is still down quite a bit and will recover in a better market (I assume—as everything seems to have its day). Thanks,

Jason

Q: I hold the listed equities/ ETF in my 14 year old grandson's RESP account. Given thee current environment what changes would you make in preparation for the next 4 years? I consider HFR is cash available.

Woule you consider adding some US listings for diversification? Given some current thinking regarding the US dollar would it be wiser to add Cdn listed ETFs of US companies? . What would be the tax implications of adding US listed companies that do not pay a dividend? Any paperwork?

Thanks very much. Take whatever credits are needed.

are there any stocks in the account that you would replace?,

Q: Prior to the December 2022 distribution of the new BAM, I believe that the old BAM (now BN) was trading with a dividend yield above 1%...perhaps around 1.25% or even 1.5% (?) As of this moment, the "new" BN trades at a 0.91% yield.

I usually use historical yield as a guide for my stock purchases. Am I able to make a direct yield comparison of today's BN vs. the former, or was the dividend affected in any way because of the distribution 6 months ago? If so, by approximately how much ??

Q: Hello,

TD believes the following on BN

After subtracting the market value of BN's stakes in BAM/BEP/BIP, the stock is ascribing negative value to the stake in BBU (~$1.75/share), real-estate (~$20.00/share), insurance (~$2.50/share), and carried interest (~$3.60/share). BN's ~$4bln of annual FCF provides considerable firepower to address the discount, although share buybacks must be weighed against the prospect of growing the franchise. We believe that BN's conviction in the intrinsic value of its stock price is evidenced by ~$750mm of TTM share repurchases and ~ $100mm of share purchases in the open market by the senior executive team.

Couple questions
1. This is the first time I have seen the value of BN being just reflected as just BIP,BEP, and BAM. Would you agree with this.

2. If you agree, isn’t it extremely compelling to get BBU, Reinsurance, oaktree, and property for free?

3. Would you agree with the $61 USD target or 90% upside?

Thank you!

Q: Hello,

TD believes that BN is only pricing in BIP, BEP and BAM and ascribing no value to BBU, oaktree, insurance and the real estate.

Do you agree? If so, this must be a deal of a century?
