Investment Q&A

Q: What are your thoughts on purchasing these 2 for a short term hold 2-3yrs.

Q: Hi 5i Team. Question relates to trading volume on PID. I'm trying to establish a 2 - 4% position in PID for international exposure for both growth and dividends. The 2 - 4% position equates to 5,000 - 10,000 shares. I tried to place an order yesterday for 5,000 shares and only half the position was taken. If I look back at the past 30 days, average trading volume is typically ~<10,000 shares. The one exception was mid December when trading volume was ~75 - 100,000 shares. Should one be worried or concerned about this when trying to establish a position in an ETF with a AUM of ~$140M. Many thanks. Steve

Q: More of a comment to you answer to Paul's questions about PayPal and Visa as I recently asked a questions about the 2 companies, loved your summary, but you missed adding what I would think is something thats a huge growth area for Square and PayPal... Visa not so much... Cash App.

Taken from Square's recent earnings " Cash App delivered strong growth in the third quarter of 2020, generating $2.07 billion of revenue and $385 million of gross profit, which increased 574% and 212% year over year, respectively. Excluding bitcoin, Cash App revenue was $435 million, up 174% year over year"

Bitcoin and stock trading, drives engagement and then those customers tend to use more of the app, as you would know PayPal has Venmo whis is or was the leader in a similar space but Visa wouldnt have anything similar or do they?

Q: Hi 5i,
Thank you very much to 5i for helping me grow my new account significantly since April 2020 where I have a mix of growth and dividend stocks based on your advice. I definitely outperformed the indexes! Can you provide me with a list of 12-15 stocks in various sectors with growing dividends as I am now looking to reduce the volatility of my stocks? I am fine with US stocks as well.
Thanks very much

Thanks.

Q: I'm interested in the water theme in general. Have contemplated buying CWW but already own AQN (part of CWW) and HEO as water plays. Now that XYL has come down under $100 would you be buyers at this price for a long term hold? Any other water names you like?

Q: My information source discloses that institutional holdings of ATD have dropped 20 million shares in the past three months to overall 31.4%. Two questions, is 31.4% low for institutional holdings? And is it a concern that institutions may be negative on the company?

Q: I hold Csu in my Tsfa and I notice that Topicus shares are listed but of course no price yet.
It shows that Topicus will be listed in U.S $ even though Csu are listed in Cdn$. Is this correct and will Topicus show on my statement the morning of Feb1st so that I can get the trading prefix to begin trading?

Q: In your opinion how will these short squeeze situations affect the markets going forward? Will we never see such a large percentage of the float being shorted again? Surely any company that experiences a 100% float will be the next target of a reddit campaign.

It could also be looked at from the other side. Any company with a high percentage of shares sold short could experience buyers trying to preemptively predict reddit forums from doing it first. Has this situation permanently changed short selling?

Q: Peter; Years ago during the robber barons railroad days Gould started shorting Fisks railroad- until one day he realized he was short twice the company’s capitalization.Now that was a short squeeze! Rod

Q: Peter; Did u listen to the conf call yesterday - seems no one liked it by today’s drop- or just a general market weakness? Thanks,
Rod
