Current individual weights are; CSU 4.88%, GOOGL 4.94%, AAPL 4.8%,GIB.A 3.2%, SHOP 2.57%, PHO 2.56%,MU 3.27%, NVDA 3.22%, KXS 2.21%.

Q: Looking to purchase a position in something (sector or weight not important) with good growth potential over 2-5 years looking for both US and CDN opportunities. Two names popped up recently on my radar TRQ and Chemtrade . Realize that both are completely different and would like your opinion on both and recommendations of 3-4 alternatives. Feel free to deduct credits as required.
Cheers

Q: May I please have your latest view on GRUB? I note DoorDash has very recently surpassed it as the top on-demand food delivery service in terms of dollars spent, and its increase in share seems to have come almost entirely at GRUB's expense. I have only a very small position, made much smaller over the past few months. Time to move onto one of the many better (or better behaving!) opportunities out there?

Q: I have been investigating ESPORTS and some numbers are incredible. This seems to be another disruptive force poised for growth. The Patriots owner has just bought a team and even the Olympics are looking at it.
I see three ETF’s for esports. GAMR. Fidelity,79 holdings $95m AUM; ESPO. Vaneck, 25 holdings $13m AUM; NERD Quaterhill small new 25 holdings.
I am looking at a small position through my TFSA of 1.5 % of my total portfolio including RSP and cash accounts. Also considering adding 5% ( of the 1.5%) of TSGI ( their future is online sports gambling, not no/ slow grow poker) to round the theme.
What do you know of this industry? Would you recommend another approach? Any specific recommendations? Thanks. Derek

Q: Good Afternoon 5i,

I'm looking for companies that have little to no debt, high growth in Canada or the USA.

Some companies I hold include (which I believe meet this criteria): SHOP, KXS, NVDA, SQ, MU, GOOS.

Can you provide a few more that you like that meet this criteria?

Thanks!
Dave

Q: Hi Guys,

Of the picks in this folio, which ones do you consider the most likely to break out, all things being equal, and which do you like to be a candidate to be bought out?

I'm looking to deploy a little cash in a growthy pick, and would appreciate your opinion based on today's valuation and prospects. Or would you recommend holding until better signals become apparent?

Q: I would like to get your opinion on Verde Agritech's current achievements and what you would like to see them achieving in the next 1 to 5 years. And if you could specifically address several different discussions regarding 1) the speed which they should attempt to increase production 2) the markets they should be targeting 3) the possibility of a dividend at a future point. I would assume a dividend would be a long way off but it is an idea that I find very interesting.

Thank you for your time.
