Investment Q&A

Q: Which of these would you prefer to buy at this time?

Q: After big decline & appears to have bottomed, is this a decent entry point? Txs for u usual great services & views

Q: Add to a sector and stock in the doghouse recently or pump it into one with some recent momentum. In my registered account, +5yr hold. I own both and just need to decide where to put some cash I have in the account and too samll of an amount to add a new name. I unfortunately added engh just before the tech selloff so am down almost 20%, ENB I added in the lows back in oct and has done really well with the sector rally and paying a silly yields as well. So add to ENB and hope the ride continues or top up ENGH a well run company in a beat up sector?

Q: hello 5i team, I am 68 years old. As I get older I like to simplify my portfolios. Above is my CDN holdings. I have a U.S. portfolio of about 15 blue chip companies.

I appreciate your guidance.

Q: Dear 5i,
Your ENGH report dated August 27, 2020 stated insider ownership of 22%.
I looked at the insider information on the company provided by your web site and could not find a statistic for current %insider ownership but, I did see %institutional ownership. Where can I find this information? It looks like insiders have been selling lately. Can you please tell me the current %insider ownership.

thanks

Q: Between Enghouse and Topicus, which is the better buy right now?

Q: I hold a small position in ENGH. Since peaking on Sept 4th at just over $80, it has been in a long steady decline for 9 months, to the low $50's, a drop of about 1/3 of its value. The results just released Thursday night look very weak to me, especially compared to the previous year, although covid helped their video division significantly last year, and the stock is still trading at pretty high multiples, despite the decline in the stock price. I know you have mentioned many times that you feel ENGH is a good long term steady business. Wondering if you still feel this stock is worth adding to, or is it time to sell and move on to something that offers more growth? Or do you still think there is reason to expect good revenue and income growth from ENGH over the next few years? Would you sell ENGH and add to existing positions in NVEI, TOI or DSG? Thanks.

Q: would you touch this or wait for more of a drop ? Thx

Q: Your thoughts re recent earnings please. Do the misses reflect sector issues or are they company specific?

Q: I bought shares in TFSA at ~$75 per share about one year ago.
It has fallen to ~$54 per share.
If one believes in the company should one continue to hold
or should I consider selling and looking elsewhere?
Thanks for your advice.

Q: Hi ,
Based on their risk, share price value and growth potential on a 1 to 10 scale, how would they rank?
Thank you
Ed

Q: ENGH has been dropping just before earnings release, also showing some insider selling. With the probability of earnings being "OK" and the 52 week low for this reliable company my thesis thinks there could be a short term trade here with manageable downside risk? What advice would you give to a person with such thoughts in their head?

Q: whats expected from engh next week?

Q: Hello, I have both mty and enghouse in my RRSP and i wan't to sell one of the two to buy more of the other... For a 5 years period, which one of the two you have more confidence for growth ? Thanks

Q: Good morning 5i team
I have a 1/2 holding in Enghouse and am considering adding. On the positive side, Enghouse increased its hosted and maintenance services revenue, increased margins and reduced costs in Q1 2021, and made an acquisition in Portugal. On the negative side, I wonder how much damage Enghouse caused with many investors with its special $1.50 dividend, and how long this negativity may impact them. Would you support increasing a position at this time, or biding time and waiting? Thank you.
Edward

Q: with regards to historical valuations id engh cheap or fairly valued? Thx

Q: Further to my Q yesterday,is it time to add to ENGH and start new position in DSG.Please suggest good price to enter for both.Txs for u usual great services & view.

Q: As I write this, Friday mid afternoon, all of the markets are sharply higher. Gains seem to be pretty much across the board. I like to look at outliers that are bucking the trend. There are a few stocks that you have been optimistic about that are actually down today. Wondering if any of these are not as favoured by the market, given their performance today. Perhaps issues with recent results. Understanding that you can't read too much into one day's trading, but several of these have dropped quite a bit lately, and I'm wondering what your current feelings would be on buying these today for a long term hold in a diversified portfolio. Would you give each a rating from 1 to 10 as to how strongly you would want each of these in a portfolio? BYD, CSU, CTS, DOO, DND, ENGH, LNF, PBH, REAL, STC.

Q: $64.27 p/p of ENGH,1.25% position,19% loss.Almost straight drop to current $52.04 from $62.94 on Mar 22. Thinking of switching to better potential,in particular, DSG &/or u suggestions. Note that U are positive on both but DSG is one of u top favourite stocks & a suggested alternative.Please comment Txs for u usual great services & views

Q: Hi, I own these 3 stocks, long term hold. Is it a good time to add and if so in which order? Thank you,
