Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Could you please compare the key financial metrics of OTEX vs ENGH and tell me which one you feel is the better long term hold and why. Finally, is there a canadian tech company you prefer to either of these 2?

Many Thanks
Scott

Q: My Topicus share value is about double the share value of what I have in Lumine and Constellation Software. What are your thoughts about making all three holdings roughly equal or if not equal what mix do you feel is best if considering future growth prospects?

Q: Hello 5i,

I am 27 years old. I have approx. $100,000 to start a portfolio. I have established with two positions thus far - 5% each in ATZ & BAM. Considering my age, what companies would you suggest I add keeping in mind my focus being a long term growth with a set-it-and-forget-it strategy?

If possible I would like some good dividend generation names which hopefully do not sacrifice some reasonable capital gains.

If you could suggest which of the recommendations would be better suited (tax wise) to put into my TFSA and why that is so, that would be appreciated.



Thank you Peter & Team


-Andrew

Q: Hi Peter, I have 3 shares of CSU and wish I had more, my average cost is about $1100.00. With some of the valuations of these high flyers MSFT, NVDA etc. being so high could this bubble burst at some point and I was thinking of selling some shares in companies I own to get enough cash to add to my CSU position. Is that still wise even if it is at 4000.00 dollars. Thanks

Q: I have a large (15-20%) holding in CSU, as it has grown really well. They say to keep running with your winners; as I continue investing, would it be better to continue slowly adding to my CSU position, or to work on diversifying my portfolio? If diversify, I am obviously looking for other stocks that will compound at a high level over the long term. At today's valuations, in which order would 5i recommend buying these other stocks? Similarly, to diversify, does it make sense to sell some CSU to reinvest in any of these other stocks? Thank you so much!

Q: I hold the above positions in approx equal weights in a non-registered account from which I need to raise some cash for a home project. If you were to sell entire positions, in what order would you proceed, first to be sold through to tenth (ie which positions do you see as having the most potential yet to be realized and would be later in your sell order)? Alternatively, are there some positions you would sell outright while trimming as needed from others, and if so, which ones would be sells - again in what order - and which would be trims? Many thanks.

Q: Considering the (excessive?) rise of stock based compensation and the evaluation of how management treats their shareholders vs how they treat themselves, who would you recommend as a management team that consistently behaves and demonstrates respect for their shareholders, please, thanks.
