Q: I would like to improve my buying and selling stocks. To do this, I understand that one factor could be referring to the Relative Strength Index (RSI). What has your experience been like in referring to the RSI for selling when over 70 and buying when under 30? In other words, how much weight should I put on RSI for buying/selling stocks?.......Thanks for your insights...Tom

Q: During the early weeks of the pandemic (March 2020), my portfolio results - namely Canadian holdings - experienced 3 days in a row of my worst stock market performances EVER. These worst ever performances were approximately 3 times as BAD dollar wise as my BEST ever daily performances. I do understand the immense irrationality of those times, however is this excessive variance in performance a semi normal occurrence where your worst performing days are multiples of your best performing days? For reference purposes please consider that my largest holdings were and are BCE, T, TD, WSP, CSU, ENB, AP.UN, ATD, GIB.A, XBC, and IPL.UN(at that time).

Thank you for your response,

Dean

Q: Shopify's decision to sell it's distribution business has been well-received. However, the reasons for this divestiture -- complexity and distraction, as well as cost were entirely foreseeable before this initiative started. And the reasons for getting into distribution are not being mentioned in corporate explanations of the change. Have they just gone away? Does this change point to governance issues, such as the unusual independence of the CEO due to the share structure?

Q: Hello, Thank you and Kudos to 5i team for your unfaltering view on Shopify, and even bumping up the weight in the Balanced portfolio recently. Your unbiased and consistent opinion has been a huge support to us for maintaining a long term view on this company, while there has been so much pessimism and negativity in the market. We are very happy with market rewarding the stock last week and I am sure, there is a lot more to come over next several years.

Q: Do these 4 companies have the cash/cash flow to finance their current debt obligations? None of the companies are profitable I am concerned that they may not be able to raise the cash needed to fund operations in the current environment of rising interest rates, such that they may not be able to handle any debt due over the next year or two.

Q: As a followup to my question yesterday about Leon's how seriously should we take this interest in setting up REIT? You have noted in the past that one of the underlying values of LNF was their real estate so is this an idea that management is floating or does it look like it will come to fruition? How should a shareholder react to this news - buy more, sell or hold until it plays out?

Appreciate your insight.
