Q: Hi, I am trying to understand the value of this transaction ( Agreement yet to be approved by RKN shareholders) of US$80 mln investment in Redknee Solutions by Constellation Shareholder to the company and its shareholders. Per your comments, Constellation is interested in company's mobile billing software and its clients and will be entitled to receive 10% Preferred shares( is it 10% dividend or 10% of the shares issue) and warrants. It appears like a take over in a round about manner. I would appreciate if you could help with an analysis and your views. Thanks

Q: One third of my non sheltered account consists of shares in ATD.B, CCL.B, CSU, and SJ. In the last month the TSX is up about 3+%. In the same period these stocks are all down (13%, 5%, 6% and 8%). The only common thread I can see is that I own them. Do you have any insights that explains the not inconsiderable under performance of the share prices of these stocks in the last month?

Q: Google is said to have a very wide moat with it being a leader in search. But we all know what happens in tech -- when people reach the top there is no more room to grow or something disrupts that moat and it comes crashing down. How secure is Google and CSU and Shopify of them not being disrupted by new, nimble startups?

Q: Hi Peter and Team,

I manage my son's TFSA, and have recently almost completed a more appropriate sector allocation. In the Technology space, he has a half position in KXS. What Technology company would you recommend at this point for another half position? I was thinking of CSU but I wish it would split at least 10:1. :) How about SYZ which seems to be on a tear, or do you suggest something else at this point?

Thanks in advance for your valued advice.

Q: I have cash to add 3 new positions to my registered investment accounts. The current holdings are listed above. This is 15% of my portfolio. The other 85% is professional managed and well diversified in mutual funds. Can you recommend some Canadian stocks (that you have reports on) and ETFs that are the best purchases today that I should look into? Thanks, Matthew.

Q: As a newer subscriber to 5i, i am interested in purchasing your BE portfolio. The above names have had huge run ups and I don't know how to approach them. Which ones are buyable at these levels?
Of the ones you deem buyable, can you comment, for each, as to whether a half position or full position should be taken.
And can you rank these in terms in terms of your preferences at current levels?

Thank you for your excellent service, as always.

Q: My 6 year old's RESP CSU shares are comfortably 4 baggers. I remember being so nervous buying as chart was a straight run of succes and had recently doubled from when first started watching CSU. Thank you for the CSU research and suggestion to not be afraid to buy a stock that has gone up in price. Also, I am assume some members purchased and still hold from your first recommendation are close to or in 10 bagger territory so congrats to them.
