Q: with a small position does this company look ok for a buy?

Q: Q1-2021 report showed the company paid down some debt. Their entry in packaging has started to show signs of recovery but not with a tremendous success. Now suddenly company started to enter in different field with acquisitions in the creation of engaging retail environments, point-of-purchase displays and large format printing.

Q: Could you please comment on the modified Dutch auction? Would the tax implications of participating be any different than an outright sale?

Q: Hi. There seems to be some confusion between a “ gaming “ company and a “ gambling “ ( or betting ) company. For example, EGLX is involved in gaming while WYNN is involved in gambling. Two very different activities. Derek

Q: Over the weekend, financial press reported that “ President Joe Biden on Thursday blacklisted more Chinese companies from U.S. investment, expanding and clarifying a ban introduced last fall.” This adds more companies that the U.S. says have ties to China’s military complex.

Based on this update would you sell all holdings in Chinese companies and especially ETFs such as CQQQ other? Or would you say this has already been discounted by investors such that now would not be a good time to “dump” possibly good companies? Although I normally look for nuance in answers, on THIS question, more than just a hint would be much appreciated (We understand that you do not study CH companies in detail).

PS: As of midday, CQQQ is about flat (down only half a %; BABA down 1.3% but that could be due to other things, including general weakness in tech

Q: HI 5i,

Q: Since the yield of this fund is way higher than normal fixed income products, and uses hedging to mitigate downside risk will this a strategy work in reducing real risk long term as the fund only has a one year history

Q: Team, what resource names would you be buying right now?

Q: This stock has really moved up in the last month. Other than a $3 million injection from Sprott, I don't see any results. What is all the excitement about? Thanks.

Q: Good morning 5i,
On December 29/20 I had some cash kicking around and asked you for a few names you thought might be good candidates for a quick "pop". You recommended AT which was then trading at $16.75 but which did indeed soon head north and, because I'd asked and you'd answered, I was fortunate to get exactly what I was looking for. (Much appreciated!)
AT closed at $13.75 on Friday and, finding myself in the same position cash wise as last December, I wonder if you think the conditions are there for another pop, or if things have changed enough with the company and the way it's viewed that it will more likely languish at its current levels? If so, might there be a two or three other names you think are worth looking at for that satisfying pop?
Thanks,
Peter

Q: Peter,

I am comparing VT vs. XWD.

VT- one yr return 44%- - U.S. $$
XWD- one year return 27% Cdn $$- measures MSCI

Both are global investments but huge differences in return. I am assuming the strengthening CDN $$ hurt XWD performance. My question revolves around VT. Their site says it is a passive investment but does not mention the indexes it actually duplicates. Is someone actually choosing the investments in VT or are they simply covering certain indexes? If so, what are they?

Thanks

Q: Do you think Interfor is worth holding on to with a PE of 3.6? Seems cheap with lumber prices still up there. Or do I get out while I can?

Q: I have done well on both Cameco and Denison mines. I'm wondering if they have gotten ahead of themselves. Do you think they are currently over valued? I want to participate in the uranium space for clean energy, but wondering if its a good time to take profits.
Thanks in advance

Q: Hello. I know a lot of investors are looking for at least some portion of their portfolios to be in relatively safe income returns (and typically correspondingly little growth). As you have stated many times bank accounts, CD's etc offer pretty low rates although very safe. One other alternative that is available is the use of "stablecoins" deposited with larger exchanges like BlockFi where they offer up to around 9.5% if you deposit your coins like Tether (USDT) or USD Coin (USDC). I know you are not historically fans of the crypto space due to the volatility but the stablecoins do offer a relatively safe option and for anyone who is comfortable with the crypto arena it is a good return. Not everyone's cup of tea of course but just thought I would throw that out. Any thoughts/comments from the team would be welcome.

Q: Have had BEP.UN for a couple of years and did sell off some for a profit however I am now down 23% on 400 shares and wondering your thoughts on if I should close my eyes and sell or hang onto it. I am 71 and like growth stocks as I seem to make more money that way but without ridiculous risk. Can you suggest anything if I do sell.

Q: hi Team!

What 3 resource stock would you pick for a 2 year hold?
