Q: I have 20K in my TFSA that needs to be invested. Looking for growth stocks which should be at a bargain these days. Which would be your 5 top Canadian stocks at the moment. I do realize that this is a repetitive question so one more time for old times sake.
Many thanks for your guidance over the years.
Regards

Q: Further to my question from feb 16, 2022
Thank you for trying to help me transform from dividend investor to a bit of growth.
5I mentionned P/E, P/S, ROE ratios.
What are the present ratio values for these 3 companies right now. ( I understand this is a snapshot in time).
A. what is considered a "good" / buy cutoff for these ratios
B. how would you priorize or rank these ratios in terms of importance (from a buying perspective)
C. a rising dividend is sometimes a warning signal of a falling price (catching the knife concept) should I be wary of looking at these ratios like a % dividend; rising dividend not necessarily a good sign OR sometimes a good buy if really / fundamentally a good company (which I believe all 3 to be.)

Q: I own both of these companies, and would like to add more to my current positions. I know you like them both as long term investments. Do you prefer one over the other?

My other question is: What is your opinion about selling puts to add to these positions? Volatility is very high on both, so I would get a decent premium, and I (possibly)get to buy them at a much lower price. This just seems like win-win to me. Are there any risks in doing this that I'm not aware of? I am not using any margin for these purchases.

Thanks for all that you do

Q: I know you follow and like both adtech companies APPS and TTD but there have been no questions on applovin which seems to be a big player in this market as well + recent purchase of mopub. I was wondering your thoughts on this company and its outlook how would you compare it to apps and ttd and where would you rank it for growth potential?

Q: Would you be agreeable to selling BABA for tax loss and replacing it with PINTEREST? Baba is cheap but the China problem does not look like ending any time soon and Pinterest also looks attractive. Thankyou If you have a better tech idea feel free to mention it.

Q: Portfolio Analysis is suggesting I need more Tech and was going to purchase more in my RRSP. Right now I have a full position in KXS,ET and ABST. Half position in LSPD,APPS, AT, MSFT and ENGH. Quarter position in TOI and CSU. I was looking to add SYZ or any other stock you think. Maybe add to my 1/2 or 1/4 positions. Is there any overlap within this sector. Looking for some stability and some growth.

Thanks Greg
