Q: TFSA top up for 2023. I hold all IWO in the account currently. My crystal ball doesn't like the current USD:CAD outlook so buying USD with CAD to get IWO at the moment doesn't feel like a good move. Does anything in the balance or growth portfolio look particularly attractive as a buy? I hold OTEX and ENGH as tech stocks, both have been adequately beaten up to be buys but I hate owning the same stock in multiple accounts so would consider a different CAD stock for the TFSA account if you can think of one. So long way to ask: just suck it up and buy, IWO, buy ENGH, buy OTEX or buy ??? as it is your top pick right now. 5 year hold.

Q: Over the past two years with the downturn of the market, I am down significantly with majority of these holdings in various accounts. I have a long-term 10+ year outlook, so looking to see if you feel any of these can be sold off given the outlook, management of the company? If so, what are your recommendations for a growth investor in either CAD/US stock options?

Thanks!!

Q: In a recent answer you concluded with: “At some point, all the 'worry' will be priced in, and contrarian, more bullish investors may do very well, if they are positioned BEFORE the market pivots.”

I agree that ‘before’ is key. Would good stocks for this strategy be Shop and Goeasy? What others do you suggest for contrarian bullish investors?

Q: Hi team,

Looking for strong growth names in my tfsa, I have been considering cheap stocks with potential. An alternative approach would be to look at names which have been doing very well this year and which still have momentum and potential. Grateful for your comments and some names which have wind in their sails.

I consider that above list has some potential for recovery.
I would like to concentrate on the bests with the greatest potential recovery in 2023.
I will appreciate your advice on the stocks I could sell or add on or replace.
I always value your opinion

Q: What is your opinion of Shopify as a worthwhile investment? Quite a drop in price over the last year from $180 to $48. What did they do wrong or is it a tech market pricing issue? Are they well managed - is their future positive? Recently watched Brian Madden of First Avenue on BNN he was very positive on this company.
Thanks

Q: Would you please provide me with 6 US and 6 CDN stocks that have gone down in price but their value, debt and upside don't justify the downward stock price. Some with big upside potential.

Thanks and Happy Holiday Season to you and all staff.

Q: Hello Peter and Ryan,

I just read a negative research report on Guardant Health in Seeking Alpha, suggesting it may not be returning to its growth premium anytime soon. If you were to have a change of mind on seeing it as a HOLD, can you suggest a few compelling replacements from your current US high-growth list of favourites (within or outside of this sector)? Thanks, Brad
