Q: I am up 140% on NVDA and 65% up on DRX ( DRX has lost some gains recently

I am looking to maximize gains for the next 2 years.

I am planning to sell half of my NVDA shares and all my DRX shares to buy MU and AVGO.

The thought is that I want to cash some gains from NVDA and DRX might not grow much after the recent insider sale.

Does this sound like a good plan? Or do you think that NVDS, AVGO and MU are in similar markets and would suffer once AI-hype dies down in the next 2 years?

Do you have other alternatives for a 2 year hold? I am buying with Canadian dollars. So stocks need to be listed on TSX or NEO.

Thanks

Q: Dear Peter:

I have a small sum, about 10 k USD from locking in some profits. I can only write covered calls in my Registered accounts. No cash secured puts! Any candidate that you may want to suggest for writing covered calls? (can only be in 100 shares lot, right?) The ones that have attractive premiums are very expensive!

Many thanks.

Q: I'm reviewing my American holdings, looking for long-term (5-10 year++) hold. I like about half of what I have, but I'm looking to - possibly - replace positions in Intel (full position), Verizon (full position), IBM (full position), and Roku (half position). Is that a good idea? My only limits are that I'd like to keep things American, I already own full positions in Google, Costco, and Intuitive Surgical, and I'd like to avoid more healthcare.

Q: I am considering adding Unitedhealth Group (UNG) to my portfolio and, before doing so, I would like to know your thoughts on this company. My only other holding in the health sector is ISRG and I would like to bring this sector up to 8% of my portfolio which normally would be 2 stocks. Do you think this would be a good addition? Or, do you have other suggestions?

Thanks, J

Q: My portfolio is 35 per cent technology. I own 600 shares of Nvidia which comprise close to 10 per cent of my holdings. I also own Goog Amazon Microsoft and Apple but no Meta. Does it make sense to sell 200 shares of Nvidia to buy into Meta at this time or do I not interfere with the Nvidia momentum.
