Q: Hi 5i,
I’m in the process of rebalancing my RRSP and TFSA and looking to be greedy while others are fearful.
Specifically moving TD, FTS, T, and LNF to an RRSP so that my TFSA can be growth oriented.
My remaining TFSA positions would be as follows:
- Half Positions: NVEI, EGLX, LSPD, WELL, U, APPS, BAM.A, SIS, DND, BYD, MITK
- Full Positions: GSY, TOI, CRWD, ATZ

I am planning to deploy as follows:
- Complete existing positions: NVEI, LSPD, APPS, U
- New Partial Positions: AT, XYL
- New Full Positions: DOL, SHOP, VEEV, ANRG, ATD, TIXT
Would you swap out anything on this list that would better compliment my existing positions? I have a 10+ year horizon so I’m leaning towards aggressiveness.

Thanks!

Q: I bought these (and others) for growth, and was doing well, but am now in the red on these holdings. I bought for a five-year hold, so don’t need to sell anything, but I would ask, do you see any that should be sold or any that I could be adding to for a January bounce? Thanks!

Q: What are your top 3 U.S. stocks that look promising both in 2022 and beyond. I must admit, other than 2008 and March 2020 I do not recall a period in time where small and mid cap stocks have been crushed like this. Would you consider us in a bear market, even though the large caps mask this and markets at near all time highs?

Q: I have done alot of tax loss selling, starting in Oct. The stocks include XBC, CHEWY, LMND, PINS, RDFN, TDOC, EGLX, REAL, MRS, ABCL, and ZNGA. Which ones would you repurchase? Would you do it now, or wait until the new year? I purchased LSPD, NVEI , and APPS with some of the proceeds, and that has not worked out well! Would you average down on these names when they stabilize?

Q: I have LSPD, AT, EGLX, AEM, and WELL as my higher risk positions. I am looking to consolidate these positions and maybe add TOI or NVEI. Out of the 7 stocks and at current prices what would your 3-4 top picks be for growth and price appreciation?

Thank you!

Q: Hello 5i,
My investments have grown nicely in 2021: thank you!
I’ve categorized the above assets into three buckets:
Technology: nvda,kxs,toi,csu =12.8%

Communication: goog,apps,kind =6.5% (goog is 5%)
Consumer discretionary: appl,shop,lspd =8% (lspd=<1)
Total= 27%
Please comment on outlay and provide ideas for improvement. Am I being too cute with my categorization buckets?
Many thanks for your opinion.

Q: My TFSA has too many holdings (with various weightings from 3 to 13%), and there appear to be some good buying opportunities at the moment with some of these. I quite like all of these stocks and need some help identifying which 5 or 6 to sell and which 5 or 6 to buy with sale proceeds (those which have been most punished for no good reason and fundamentals are still sound).

AAPL, ATA, BAM.A, ENPH, GSY, KXS, MMX, PBH, SIS, SHOP, TFII, VEEV, WELL, WSP

So far all I’ve come up with is

One on the chopping block: cleanup small position: MMX – also it strikes me as neither a growth nor income stock.

Definite keepers: ATA, ENPH, TFI, WSP (all seem to be thriving)

Thanks

Jim

Q: Both companies are trading at roughly a third of their 52 week highs. Being such you have answered recent questions saying they are expensive. I assumed they wouldn't be. At what price are they not expensive and what metric do you use for this. I'm trying to improve my investing skills and make some sense of this.

Thanks Steve

Q: I'm lacking in Consumer Defensive, Industrials, and Basic Materials. Please provide some names you like in each of those sectors.

I'd prefer safe income stocks but I'm open to hear a couple growth suggestions.
