Q: Read the Q&As almost daily for several years now.
Senior, retired and living on government pensions.
My question is about a growth-oriented TFSA cash allocation of about 10k or less than .75% of total equity portfolio. Will not need the funds for another 34 months.
Understand you cannot indicate position size or provide personal advice.
Current TFSA holdings in order of largest %age gain to biggest losers in TFSA is: TFII, TRI, DIR.un, DSG, KXS, LMN, TOI, TVK, EQB, DOL, DOO, PMZ.un, TIXT, REAL, S, HOT.un, EGLX. Top 10 are in excess of 1.50% of position size. Bottom six are headed for exit ramp in due course.
Across entire non-reg and TFSA portfolio am underweight Cons Cycl, COMMS, Industrials, Healthcare and international multi-sector.
Pondering adding to existing or a new TFSA position to add to the 40-plus I already have. So how would YOU allocate this 10K today?

Q: I wonder if HPS' compensation policy includes SBC annually. If that's the case and we look at the stock's performance over the past 3 years, the stock was $12. in 2022. If the options are vested after 3 years as is often the case or worse if vested 5 years is'nt there a danger of putting a lid on the stock price until the options are totally vested and cashed? I'm worried that the money invested in the past year will be dead money no matter what PE shows. Right or wrong?

Q: CSU stock continues to power upwards and everybody seems to love it. This raises the possibility that it is, or will become, overbought. Can you suggest a sell-point and some metrics for determining when my csu holding should be lightened? If lightening, would you do this before or after Q2 report on Aug 7?
