Q: Hello 5i Research
In your June report on Toi stock you pointed out that if Csu would sell their shares of Toi ,it would get hit very hard.My question is what is the likelihood that they would sell and when might they do that also why ?
Thanks as always for your great feedback.

Q: If you had to pick only ten stocks or ETF's to hold forever which would they be?
Thanks

Q: We have decided to increase positions in ATA, CSU and GSY in a non-registered account, as well as start positions in ATZ, FSV, GDI, WELL, TOI and LSPD in a TSFA. All purchases will be made with the intent to be long-term holds (10+ years).

Please suggest entry points for each of the companies. Thanks!

Q: I currently own OTEX but wonder if CSU or TOI would be a better choice over the long term (3-5 years). If so which would you prefer CSU or TOI?

Thanks

Q: from a long term perspective how does engh and csu an look today?How does the value look with regards to forward PE and other metrics 5i would look at? Thx

Q: with the share rally this is now a 16 billion market cap and CSU a 45 billion market cap does this add up or has TOI run too far too fast and does CSUlook better today? Thx

Q: Please rank the US and Canadian stocks listed above for growth with a 5 yr +
time-frame.

Q: Hi Peter and Team
I have followed 5i and my well diversified RRIF now has >20% Tech due to the growth of the 4 companies held. Until recently, only KXS was in the Red but now all 4 look great. Would you consider any for trimming back to keep sector less than 15% and where else should one go for any buy and hold at this record levels ?
Thanks for all the expert guidance!
Peter

Q: Over the last couple of months a lot of Canadian tech stocks have seen huge gains in a very short time.

CSU from $1,730 to $2,130
DCBO from $65 to $104;
DSG from $70 to $97;
KXS from $135 to $199;
LSPD from $85 to $131;
MAGT from $26 to $55;
NVEI from $100 to $161;
TOI from $80 to $125.

1) Do you think this is getting overdone and are we due for some kind of correction in this sector?

2) Are any of the above still good buys after these large, rapid price increases?

3) Are there any Canadian tech stocks that have "missed the party" so to speak, haven't seen large rapid price increases like those above, and are good buys currently?

Thanks.

Q: Any chance that Real Matters is a buyout target for Constellation Software? Mark Leonard did say he is going after other "markets". Or maybe Real Matters cannot even past their internal hurdle rates.

Q: I am overweight in tech by about 10% in my portfolio and I should sell some positions to increase my exposure in other sectors. What is your conviction in order of preference on APPL, CSU, NVDA, OTEX, TTD and TOI if I need to sell some portions or all of any of these holdings?

Q: Could you please some insights into the relationship between the number of analysts covering a company and the number of institutions holding that investment? For example, I was surprised to hear that TOI only has one analyst, while Yahoo shows 109 institutions holding shares. Is this simply because they were "given" shares from CSU? If that wasn't the case, how many institutions would you expect to be holding shares (roughly)? I'm trying to get a sense of what high vs low institutional interest looks like. Thanks
Marc

Q: Hello Team,
Which of these do you prefer for long term growth and why?
Thanks,
Barry

Q: Hi, Over several years now, Tech holdings have grown to be over 45% of our portfolio. Balance of our funds are invested in decent dividend paying companies - Banks, utilities, industrial and ENB. Largest tech weightings are : CSU - 15% and SHOP -11%, with other like LSPD - 6%, TOI- 5%, NVEI-4% and KXS-3%. Except, LSPD, a fairly large portion of all others shares are held in a Non-Regd account. We have already trimmed SHOP and CSU, over past 2-3 years, but still % weight keeps growing and their ACB is very low ( $300-$400 ).

We are approaching our retirement years and are trying to avoid large capital gains to our Estate, while still continue to own a large stake in these tech companies, over time. The plan is to trim highest % Tech holdings, in the Non Regd account, in a phased manner, each year, for next 15-20 years. In addition to a fairly large stream of dividend income, we also wish to supplement our cash flow/cash from sale of Non Regd Tech holdings. ( Our TFSA accounts are already loaded with LSPD, part SHOP/CSU). We really like CSU over SHOP for its steady-eddy growth/stable profile, although, both companies are unique and hold strong growth potential, we believe.

Questions:

1. Does it sound like a decent strategy, given our life stage/taxes ?
2. Is 45% Tech ownership reasonable for retirement years ( even if we are comfortable) ?
3. Is it reasonable to have 15% weight in CSU?
4. What would you suggest to trim each year - CSU or SHOP or any other companies above, and your reasoning, please.

Please deduct as many question credits, as needed.

Thank you so much.
