Q: My observation is that you don't generally view companies that grow quickly by acquisition as 'risky', whereas you often refer to debt and small capitalization as risk factors. Constellation Software, Alimentation, Parkland, Enghouse and of course Valeant come to mind as consolidators. I would appreciate your comments on the risks of growth-by-acquisition, and, what are the high-growth companies you recommend that rely on acquisitions for growth?
Thanks
Thanks
Q: Comments on their latest quarter. Worth holding on to?

Q: 5i Team,
How similar are these 2 companies? I have 2.5% positions in both (at a healthy profit - thank you).
Should I sell one? I own DSG in a cash account at +100% - hence have to pay cap gains, and KXS in my TFSA. I know KXS is a top pick of yours..
I'm fine with risk.
Thanks,

Q: Can you rank the stocks best to worst in your opinion. These are the stock s that are in my technology sector (17% weighting). Would you add, swap or remove any of them? My portfolio holdings/thoughts are very similar to your BE Portfolio. Thank you and great job.
Q: DSG (Descartes): FPE of 54, ROE low single digit, no dividend, EPS very small - seems very over valued to me. It looks like it has no debt.? I do not see an investment thesis here? Comments please. I usually do not buy companies that do not pay a dividend and grow it on a regular basis which to me shows confidence going forward. Looking for a diversifier. Own ABT, SIS & ZCL in small portions in TFSA.
Q: I was recently reading an article about a somewhat prominent US investor who runs an extremely concentrated portfolio. I was rather startled to see that DSG was one of his choices. For example, FB was one of his other tech holdings. I would appreciate your thoughts about the long term future of DSG and why this stock may have been selected in preference to the numerous other tech possibilities. I believe the existence of a moat is a key criteria for this investor.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Q: How would you assess the prospects of these two companies over the next year or so? I am considering swapping them for Constellation Software. Would this be a good move?
Q: I need to add to my tech sector. Would you add ENGH after the drop today? How about DSG? Any others that you would recommend to purchase right now?
Q: Could you please comment on the earnings release.
Thx

Q: Descartes and Intrinsyc are to release their quarterly earnings reports later today. Could you please advise as to analysts' expectations.
Thank you, Peter
Thank you, Peter
Q: Based on other responses you prefer OTEX over DSG when forced to choose. I understand one reason may be valuation, but please expand on your other reasons for that preference. For example, does OTEX have a better growth outlook. If one owned DSG currently but not OTEX would you sell DSG and buy OTEX. My preference is to own one or the other and trading commissions and taxes are not an issue. Thanks for your reply.
Q: Hi Peter and Team,
Thank you for all the great work that you put in. My daughter's RESP is doing quite well thanks to your model portfolios.
Currently in my TFSA, I am holding DSG, FTS, NFI and WPK. I would like to add a fifth stock to my portfolio. The time frame for the TFSA is 10+ years. Any suggestions to increase the diversification?
Thanks in advance.
Marvin

Q: Hello Peter,
I am currently underweight commodities and overweight technology. What would you think of selling DSG and ENGH and buying TOG and RRX? Do you think whatever incremental return expected by this change would justify the increase in volatility and risk?
Also, what are the approx wait times in terms of weeks for a portfolio review?
Regards.

Q: Hi guys,
I presently own DSG with a nice profit, does it make sense to sell and purchase ALF.
Thanks,
Jim

Q: I am considering consolidating at least one of my tech stocks as some seem to be in similar businesses. Which tech stock of the above would you recommend to sell at this time. If something is sold, which one might you recommend to buy more. Or just best to do nothing. I have about 2% - 2.5% of my total equity portfolio in each. Thanks.

Q: I have listed the tech stocks I currently own. As much as I like all of them, I am very over-weight in that sector and need to re-balance my portfolio. I think I should sell 3 of them. Which 3 would you suggest?
Thank you, Peter
