Q: Hi Team,
I am planning on making a 2021 rsp contribution and looking for your top 3 US growth picks today. ( I was leaning towards PINS). That being said, do you think now is a good time to do this into the tech weakness? I may contribute in 2 different contributions at different times. Or do you foresee this pullback lasting quite a bit longer yet? I realize timing the market is just a guess, but you did a good job in predicting the low last year when your write up suggested we start buying after the huge virus sell off. Thanks for that!

Q: Good morning - I am looking to increase my Industrial sector holdings and currently have positions in LMT, ATS, AC and TFII. Are there sector companies ( canadian or otherwise) that you consider to be underappreciated at this time or other companies that you would recommend? Or, am I better to add to my current holdings?

as always, your inputs are most appreciated

thanks

Q: Vision Marine Technologies (vmar-q), a Montreal company is on Nasdaq since last November. It is the first maker of electric boats on the exchange. While production has been slowed down by the pandemic , it has been developing electric motors to power boats at 100km/h. Could it enjoy the success of other recreational vehicles such as BRP Inc. (doo-t) ?
Grateful for your views.

Q: I purchased Docusign last year and until very recently it seemed like a great choice. It’s sharp decline that began in late February has been significantly steeper than the tech sell-off in general. The shares are now right about where I paid for them and a hair away from succumbing to the old adage “never let a gain turn into a loss”. The steep sell-off has me worried that it is a precursor to the street expecting disappointing earnings when they report this Thursday. I know what the consensus forecast is, but what does 5i’s crystal ball predict for their upcoming Q4 earnings and the market reaction?

Q: When do you think we are going to see the market sell off settle down in some of these names? Is this panic selling by retail investors or a more troubling move by smart money out of these names entirely? I'm just finding it hard to imagine that the prospects for these companies changed as dramatically as the share price in recent weeks. Take NVDA for instance. I thought it was everyone's darling a few weeks ago when I bought it over $100 higher. I'm holding but it's hard watching these things fall so dramatically each day without reprieve it seems. Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i team,
My nephew turned 18 last year and has now 11K in his TFSA ready to invest.
What would be your suggestion (s). It can be a mix of CDN and USD stocks/ETFs.
Obviously, it would be several years before needing any of the money so some risk can be taken.
Thanks
