Q: Down a lot in these 2. Which makes sense to Sell and consolidate proceeds with the other to average down?. Is there any hope for these to rise? US law getting passed???
Thanks!

Q: Brief thoughts on these weeds I'm looking to pick.

Return and % weight in portfolio now and what I plan:

MGA: -39, 2.13%. Looking to trim slightly down to 1.5%, add to ATZ, BYD, BKNG or SBUX?
ILLM: -87%, 0.14%. So small now its insignificant, roll into GOOG position
CTS: -46%, 0.96%. Hovering at 1 yr low. Aside from strategic review, what's the catalyst?
MED: -61%, 0.80%. Sell and add to ATZ, BYD, BKNG or SBUX?

Toss them, hold them or water them? Thanks!

Q: RESP for 2 year old, with current year contribution to deploy ($3,075). Considering selling SHOP (8% weight) and NVDA(15% weight) and adding equally position in BN and AMZ CDR. Objective to diversify portfolio and add some growth potential. Thoughts on this plan, or alternative suggestions?

Q: Thinking of selling goeasy and buying dollarama what do you think about this transaction.

Q: Hi 5i,
I have 3 different questions- please deduct accordingly.
1.) Since March 24 KEY (+12.46%) has outperformed each of ENB (+6.21%), TRP (+8.75) and PPL (+8.06%) by fairly substantial margins. I know that's a short time frame, but can you offer an explanation for KEY's better performance, and would you expect it to continue to lead the others over the next year?
2.) GSY is at or close to its lowest level since January 2021 - do you think the relevant company, sector and economy related bad news is now priced in and expect it to recover to the $150 range over 12 - 18 months, or do you think that's a pipe dream, and why or why not?
3.) In your opinion is ET likely to recover to at least the $14.00 level (where I bought it some time ago) this calendar year - and why or why not.
Thanks!
Peter

Q: Hello Peter,

I have shortlisted 5 stocks for a new position in TFSA of my wife and mine. I am thinking of 3 full positions or I could divide amongst 4. Could you help me eliminate one from my list and would appreciate if you could rank the other 4 in order of our preference - best first?
Thank you for your help.

Q: Thanks to strong performance largely from CSU and KXS, I am both overweight in Tech and also have outsized positions in both - CSU along with the spin offs is ~13% of total now.

While I like to let the winners run this position feels too oversized and would appreciate considerations around taking some earnings off here . Since I am also underweight in Industrials, Utilities, and Healthcare what would be good long term options here (I'm 41) to transition into?

Q: Good Afternoon
I hold BAM, Bank of Nova Scotia, Leon’s, GDI and Lightspeed. I have held these stock for years and each position makes up about 1-2 % of my portfolio. I am looking for a bit more torque. Can you suggest a consolidation candidate or perhaps one of Shop, Descartes , Doo or one you prefer better. Thank you

Q: I have 4% of my RRSP in cash. Im underweight industrials and healthcare. I’m a fan of LLY for HC and J for industrial (WSP is my other). Would you add to these at current prices to get to a half position in each?

Q: hi group i am looking to increase my % in the 11 stocks (listed) from 2-4% can you list order and price estimate you would target assuming a mild recession Thanks for your guidance

Q: Hello,
I have accumulated two large positions in Royal Bank and Fortis inside my TFSA, with the intent of collecting the dividend income stream throughout retirement for 25 years and then cashing them out.
I find myself needing to sell one in order to raise some cash.
Which one would YOU sell? Or sell half of each?
Thanks,
Roman

Q: I own CAT anticipating a growth in sales in 2024 due to infrastructure spending in the US. I also own TIH as my industrial exposure in Canada. Does it make sense to hold both or are they too similar? If I decide to change TaiH to another industrial holding in Canada, what would be your preferred options to consider? I already own CP and TFII for my other industrial exposures.

Q: I am looking for cash-rich stocks with unusually low prices at the moment.

Could you recommend 5 Canadian and 5 US stocks

Thanks

Q: The above holdings are in my TFSA for long term growth. Looking to add another stock to the account. Can you share a few that would be good additions for long term growth. If adding to an existing names make makes sense; open to that as well as none of these are a full position.

Q: I bought GSY in $32 area in 2020 in my TFSA, have sold some since late last summer, still at about 8% of portfolio, was thinking of selling half what I have and replacing with NVEI. Partly due your one of your recent responses to a question, that NVEI likely to have greater growth potential over next 1-2 years, I bought and own GSY for it's growth potential but if NVEI could produce better results, trade makes sense. I have lots of financials, low in tech in portfolio, so also increases diversification, would you agree with this idea in general?
