Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Hi. My very helpful neighbour has had a baby, and I want to give a gift to get him started on stocks. Do you have a recommendation for something that would still be a safe and good investment 20 years from now? I'm looking to spend between $300-$500 CAD. US or Canadian stocks would be fine. Thanks, Marg.

5i Research Answer:

For a growth-focused but not crazy investment for 20 years or more, we would side with BN or GOOG.
