Q: First, thanks for the great service you provide, it is much appreciated!
I would like your thoughts on this Company for a long term hold. It looks like management has quite a bit of experience in the cannabis industry, and they have a number of offices in major N. American. Any insight into the financials and your thoughts on how the psychedelics and psychedelic-enhanced psychotherapy market will evolve would be appreciated.

Q: Hello Peter,
In addition to my core portfolio built around the 5i Balanced, I have a margin borrowed portfolio that started with the idea of swing trades but has become the size of the core one as I stayed with the momentum. It is built on 3 pillars. Tech growth – (ZM, CRWD, VEEV, AVLR, LSPD, PHO, XLNX, ROKU), precious metals – (AEM, FNV, PAAS, MMX, WDO, KRR) and yield stocks -(ABBV, CU, CPX, ENB, PPL, FSZ) that help pay the interest. Two others not classified are DXCM and Visa. None of these started out as a long term holding for more than a year, but am willing to hold on in the current low interest environment. In fact, am willing to borrow more if opportunity shows up. Have my eye on NVDA, ADBE and TTD.
In case of heightened volatility which of the 3 pillars would you focus on holding and any suggestions on which ones would you exit sequentially?
Look forward to your suggestions. Thank you for your advice in advance.
Regards.
Rajiv

Q: My question relates to the question asked by Donald today (Oct 6). regarding the risk/reward factors between LSPD, REAL and WELL.
5i answered
Risk (least first): REAL, LSPD, WELL
Potential (most first): WELL, LSPD, REAL
I would like some clarity if possible on the degree of such comparisons. Is it possible to state in some meaningful way the degree of risk/potential difference between the companies? For instance from REAL to WELL is there a little difference, significant difference or huge difference? Perhaps a scale from 1 to 10 would work.
Thank you so much for your thoughts and guidance.

Q: In the terms of growth and safety how do you rate these three companies.
Q: Is Fire and Flower a buy at these levels ? Alimentation couch-tard has a stake in this company - will that help FAF as far as price appreciation in the next while ? https://cannabisretailer.ca/2020/couche-tard-increases-stake-in-fire-flower/

Q: I'm going to sell my ET position very soon. I would like to put the proceeds into one of the following three: LSPD, REAL or WELL. How would you order them in terms of risk? How would you order them in terms of most potential?

Q: I’m considering adding to my SHOP and KXS positions and initiating LSPD and CJT positions. I’m in no hurry and would like to purchase shares that have gone on sale(lol). I’d appreciate your commentary on the likelihood of the impact of two events in our immediate future and their impact on prices. My concerns involve: (1) the coming of winter and the impact on LSPD as restaurants shutter, potentially for good and (2) the impact of the US election if the result is dragged out for weeks in an ugly transition of power. I have no problem buying today, and I know you don’t recommend timing the market as there is always something to worry about, but it seems foolhardy to not consider the impact of events staring us in the face. Thanks for the guidance.

Q: Is there a Canadian listed Canadian dollar ETF that holds many of your USA favourite companies: NVDA, VEEV, DOC, MSFT, AMZN etc, etc.
If not is there a US ETF that holds a concentration of some of your favourite companies? Not just a sector ETF, but more focused on your favourites. Currently I'm only invested in Canada, and I want to invest, starting small, in some of the USA companies you are recommending, but, if possible with a bit of diversification.
Or if nothing exists, maybe I should just pick two, say NVDA and VEEV and invest in those in US dollars? Would those two be top of the list? It is for a small amount, about 5% of my portfolio.

Q: Hi 5i Team,
I was able to build up a half a position of WELL before it took off on me and have roughly a 150% profit on the position. I can't help but think the stock is a bit overvalued at this point and I have been pondering what, if anything, would be the best move long term in a TFSA account?
I was thinking of trimming the WELL position to bring it back to what I consider a normal full position and put the proceeds into either TCS and bring it to a full position or add to a SYZ position bringing it to .5 weighting?
Another possibility is just to let WELL run until I rebalance due to its weighting in my total portfolio which is my usual system of rebalancing.
Thank you for the advice and have a great weekend!

Q: I would like to have a little fun with this question. Imagine a boxing match between Canadian companies and American companies...each round is represented by a sector so lets say it is a fight gone bad and there are extra rounds covering 11 sectors. Please pick a favourite Canadian Contender and a strong American contender for each round and who wins the round. Example Round 10 Technology Red corner Constellation Software vs Blue corner Microsoft. Won by Microsoft or Constellation Software. The rules...If you wish to give reasons why the round went one way or another, it's your choice. A good clean fight use the criteria of your investment strategies. The point...I am curious if the Canadian Companies stack up and in what areas I should be looking at South of the border. Thank you
