Q: Dear 5i team.

The news is filled with headlines of strikes, and fairly hefty increases in Salary, both sides of the border. At what point is wage inflation going to be an issue for the Fed and BOC? What is your view on the wage inflation train leaving the station, and possible impact 6 months from now?

Many thanks for your insights.

Q: On a discounted cash flow basis, the intrinsic or fair value of DOL is $74.52.  But the current price is $87.56. And this seems to me to  signal DOL is overvalued by $41.50  or 35.77%. My question is how much weight should be placed on this method of valuation? And what other metrics should I consider along with the discounted cash value valuation? For example, is this valuation a signal to trim to a base weight of 4%?  Curious me...and also a fan of DOL......Tom

Q: Recently, you offered a general perspective on investing, which I found valuable - somthing along the lines that you never made money buying cheap, better to buy expensive. Did i get that right? So, what are some of the current expensive stocks that you would advise taking an intial position and entry prices. Might as well rank, as well.
Thanks
Sam

Q: I have not been happy with NPI's performance for some time and yesterday's drop of >6% has not helped. I am now slightly in the red and looking for guidance. What caused the drop...and what is your prognosis for NPIs performance going forward? Ironically, the stock seems to be one of the few utility companies still rated as 'strong buy' by Morningstar. Given no tax consequences (in fact a small capital loss), would you be inclined to move on? And, if yes, what utility and/or energy company would you recommend that pays a dividend >3% with some growth. (SU, BEP, and BIPC already held.) Thank you.

Q: I hold ZWU ( significantly),in my RRSP +my non registered account,since my belief was that 1) utilities offer stable yields+ are quite essential even in a recession 2) call options from BMO are made for 50% max of portfolio, so ZWU could also benefit from some growth( in theory ..).But in fact,ZWU share price is in a constant downtrend since the last 10 yrs (17 $ in 2013,10$ now).The dividend is for more than 50% ROC, the rest being mostly eligible dividend.Do the clear fiscal advantage+ the 8 % yield compensate for the capital reduction over those 10 years ?

Q: I have shares is a few energy companies. TVE is my largest holding and is the poorest performing. I am thinking of selling TVE and buying MEG in place. What difference do you see in the 2? Is there more risk with one or the other? And of course what is of interest, is there more upside with one or the other?

Another option would be to add to some existing holdings: CVE; ATH; AOI.

What would you see as the best course... continue to hold TVE, switch to MEG, or add to the others?

Thanks for your excellent service.

Q: Hi 5i, and would welcome your review of the recent Quarterly results from SentinelOne, and whether you would consider it as a buy/ hold/ or sell. Do you see any red flags or concerns with the future business prospects or in achieving their march to eventual profitability, and the merits as a long-term hold and any competitive advantage that they may hold in the cybersecurity space. Thanks kindly.
