Q: Tech is the second largest weighting in my portfolio (at 20%). I have 3/4 of a position in PANW, with most of my initial investment out, and am up 474% on the remainder. I also own NVDA, AMD, APPL, FISV, MSFT and a few other small, high risk non-cyber security positions.

With the outage crisis this week with CRWDI decided to take advantage, understanding the potential overhang. I opened a position in 2 tranches; buying in the $256-$265 range.

My question: Now I have approximately 1.5 positions in the cybersecurity sub-sector. Would it make sense to sell off some or all of PANW, generate cash to create a full position in CRWD as it bounces along in the $250 range, or is the better move to stay with the two positions?

Q: I am up 140% on NVDA and 65% up on DRX ( DRX has lost some gains recently

I am looking to maximize gains for the next 2 years.

I am planning to sell half of my NVDA shares and all my DRX shares to buy MU and AVGO.

The thought is that I want to cash some gains from NVDA and DRX might not grow much after the recent insider sale.

Does this sound like a good plan? Or do you think that NVDS, AVGO and MU are in similar markets and would suffer once AI-hype dies down in the next 2 years?

Do you have other alternatives for a 2 year hold? I am buying with Canadian dollars. So stocks need to be listed on TSX or NEO.

Thanks

Q: Dear 5i, can you please provide some Canadian and US listed stocks that you consider best of breed related to the Cyber Security theme. Many thanks!
