Q: SNSR is a U.S. ETF focused on the Internet of Things managed by Global X. I know U.S. isn't your focus, but would appreciate any comments you might be able to provide. Are there other similar ETF's that you would recommend instead and are you aware of any Canadian equivalents ?

Q: Hello Peter,
I am currently underweight commodities and overweight technology. What would you think of selling DSG and ENGH and buying TOG and RRX? Do you think whatever incremental return expected by this change would justify the increase in volatility and risk?
Also, what are the approx wait times in terms of weeks for a portfolio review?
Regards.

Q: Hello Peter,
Facebook announced great results;however, the stock hardly moved. Any comments? For gold, would you consider kirkland lake and detour as long term holds in that sector. Also, constellation software after the article in the globe has taken a step back. Is it good time to add more? Thanks very much

Q: Could you please comment on the recent earning earnings? They seem quite solid but without reference to expectations, it is hard to judge them.

By way of a comment, while you have never said anything negative about this company, it is not one that you seem to tout very much although it has been a solid performer and value grower for many, many years. Do you see this a reasonable core holding in tech?

Appreciate your insight.

Q: Technology is 15% of my equity portfolio. It is made up of KXS, TNC and OTC at 27% each and ENGH at 19% of the technology component. BTW thanks so much for recommending these. ENGH is "resting" after an amazing run up to about Jan/16. I suspect it will start to move up again if I remain patient. So just asking, would you change anything here?

Q: Today Intrinsyc press released another sizable order. They have had a steady flow of news releases the last 8 weeks on services and production wins. The stock seems range bound over this period despite its trades rather cheaply on trailing basis for Company that is showing very strong revenue and profit growth. I know the market cap is only $45M but many other tech stocks, same size, trade at much higher multiples and they have inferior balance sheets compared to ITC. Any insight or is ITC is stock that is ready to be re-rated much higher in coming months?

Q: I have about 22% of my portfolio in tech and would like to trim back. QCOM makes up about 3.1% of the total and NVDA, 4.3%. At this point would you sell one of these or sell some of each?

BTW, my other tech holdings are: CSU (3.8%) KXS (2.4%) SHOP (4.2%) GOOGL (3.5%)
Thanks for everything you do!!

Q: With the kerfuffle over QCOM I noticed there is talk about the buyout of NXPI not going through. Further some analysts are bringing NXPI's price target down. One part of me likes the arbitrage between the two. So 2 questions. What does NXPI look like to you on a stand alone basis and what do you think of trading out of NXPI into QCOM over a period of time?

Q: Hello 5i!

Knowing that SHOP is expensive on a PE basis, what is it's Price to Sales ratio? How does that compare to the other FANG stocks? (Facebook, Amazon, Nextflix and Google). Do you consider it reasonably price on that metric?

Looking forward to the 5i Event tomorrow!

Regards,
Angelo
