Q: What are your current thoughts about which United States companies you would recommend in a growth oriented portfolio. Some risk OK. Could you list and rank five of your favourites (apart from the FAANGs) and give an indication of risk.

Q: As a 20 year-old, can you suggest 6 high risk/high reward Canadian or US stocks for part of my investments (I would look to buy on dips)? Would you recommend a portion invested in cryptocurrencies or is this just really gambling with the high volatility? I have a 5-year time line.
Thank you!!

Q: How would you rank the following companies (WELL, REAL, ENGH, TOI, FLGT, ABCL) in terms of potential growth over next 3-5 years ? Are they any that you would not be keen on? If so could you provide an alternative or two?

Q: CJT's SP has been weak YTD (down about 18%) and flat for the last four months (range bound around $175 since March). Do you see any catalyst on the horizon that could get it out of the current humdrum? All stocks will eventually settle on their "proper level". I just wonder if CJT has reached that level already. Your insight is much appreciated. Thanks.

Q: Hello 5i,
I don't want to put you on the spot but after reading your reply to RAK re: Top 5 Cdn & US picks I have a question.
In my cash account (high growth/high risk) I own SHOP SQ KXS GSY PENN WELL & TTD. I have done very well over the last 5 years. I'm wondering how you would rank these against your current top picks, perhaps I have become complacent.
Thank you so much
Dave

Q: Positive news for gambling sites with bill C-218 passing today. Its likely not to be implemented for a few months yet, to give time for the provinces to set their own rules. Predicted to be a 4B-5B annual market in Canada.

I have strong conviction in EGLX, the future growth in years to follow with gaming, e-sports and now legal single-game betting. Full position already, in a TFSA, looking for torque, and willing to wait. What's not to like?!

Q: Good morning 5i,

Love the updates.

Could you please give me your top US market ETF'S geared to growth as a S&P500, mid-cap, small-cap.

Taking into consideration low fee, low distribution and preferable lower allocation to tech as a whole.

I realize that's a driver but a lower top 10 holdings. Deduct accordingly.



Thank you very much!!!!

Q: I hold the above six securities in a taxable account in less than half positions. On a tax neutral basis I could sell OKTA,SNOW,GH and PLUG and split the proceeds between ROKU and CRWD to bring them to larger positions. These investments are part of a relatively agressive taxable portfolio.
Two questions - firstly, if you could rank the 6 stocks in accordance with your preference. Secondly, do you think my proposal would create a meaningful stronger position for growth.
Thanks,
Terry

Q: I was looking for reasons on the big sell off in FLTR the other day (when your site was down) and pulled this up. Oddly (to me) DKNG is still trading at a respectable valuation. To me the whole thing sounds horrible. What do you make of it?

Q: Recently, the group that bought a bunch of dental practices all over Canada and put them under the corporate umbrella of Dental Corp had an IPO on TSX.

I see dentists are generally affluent and high income earners.

So buying 400+ practices and making it a big business sounds like a good idea except for the part that there is a half a billion dollar debt or so on the balance sheet.

What is your long term opinion of Dental Corp? Maybe a slow burn winner?

Thanks.

Q: Hi,

Congrats on the web site update! Makes it easier to navigate for sure especially when looking up company data.
Of the recent IPO's listed above, do you have a preference for one or the other or obtain a starter position in all 3? Or a different one all together?
Also, can you pls confirm the considerable drop in revenue as seen on the Company data for ABCL....or is this an error? I normally only invest in a company whose YoY growth/revenue is trending upwards...so this is a bit of a caution flag if I were to invest in ABCL.

Cheers,
SteveMc
