Q: I have a 3% position in GC in my TFSA and still am up on it having bought in at $25 per share. I am wondering if I should consider selling and move onto something else and keep this one on the watchlist for conditions to improve (i.e., back to full operating capacity). Also what is expected for the upcoming earnings report and any guess on how the market will react to what will likely be a bad quarter (or is the bad news already priced in). Are there other consumer cyclicals you could recommend as a replacement or prefer better in either Canada or the US?

As always, thanks for the fantastic service!

Q: In your opinion, is there any future for the pot stocks? There seems to be a surplus of cannabis on both the legal and black markets, black market prices are dropping and provincial governments now seem inclined to try to compete. Will any of the pot stocks be able to make serious profits in the near or long term?
Thanks.

Q: What is your top choice for playing the gold sector? This will be my only exposure to precious metals.

What are your top 10 growth names (Canada or US) for a new investment with a minimum 5 year hold? I'm not concerned about sector diversity or weighting because we're well diversified in other, larger parts of our portfolio.

Thanks.

Q: Hello 5i,
In a recent answer you rated VEEV higher than AYX. I have a half position in VEEV and a full position in AYX. Based on your rating should I trim AYX and add to VEEV or is there not enough difference between their respective performances to warrant such a move?
Thank you so much for all you do!!
Dave
