Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I have held Cisco for 5 years -up about 50% plus dividends. I am thinking about exiting it for a more interesting stable growth story in the hardware/software business. Qcom is one idea but would appreciate any other ideas or should i just hold on to Cisco for any future growth and the dividend?
thanks
Kevin

Q: Has Apple said they are building a car or is this only a rumour. If true would Magna not be a better partner than Kia or others ?
If this was to be true any idea if this moves the stock price of each meaningfully ?
I hear of another rumour Apple may get into crypto, if this happens both crypto and Apple stock goes much higher. If Musk was able to move the needle this week, I am guessing Apple would move it much more, please comment ?
Thanks

Q: Seems bewildering to choose among so many types of Tech stocks. Looking for 3 names...would CRM, ADBE or any others you would suggest be worthy at today’s values or should I just run to the SMH ETF? Help and thanks!

Q: I took a position in BLOK:US on the recommendation of a contributor to your Canadian Money Magaine (BTW I give each of my three children a subscription for Christmas becasue it is simply the best financial advice product anywhere). The thesis of the nvestment was to participate in AI for the future. I put it away as a long term investment. BLOK has been showing extraordianary growth lately. I'm not sure why? Is there a specific reason? Is it a long term hold or a sell opportunity? David

Q: What is your view on a core portfolio of the following ETFs: IEMG (12%), IEFA (23%), ITOT/ VFV (40%). The US ETFs would be in RRSP to minimize fees and withholding taxes while VFV would be in a TFSA. Both accounts would be supplemented with individual stocks from the 5i balanced/growth portfolios and a select few US stocks (CRWD, U, SQ, PINS, PLTR, NVDA) for Canada/growth exposure. Do you prefer Vanguard’s comparative US ETFs over the ones mentioned or are you largely indifferent? Thanks!

Q: Of 6 Wall St. analysts following Palantir 3 have a rare "Sell" on it with 2 Holds average sell PT ~ $17. I know the 5i take on price targets yet last Nov. Peter H. said this stock, then at 17 could be 25 one year out, yet here we are at $36. There's been good news flow on this lately but how much upside could there possibly be and why are these pessimistic analysts down on it?

Q: Looking to add another U S company to either my cash or TFSA account. I have followed MITK for awhile and I believe you like it. I notice it has pulled back a bit. Would it be a good addition and to which account? U. S stocks I presently own are SQ, V, BHVN, AAPL, DIS, FSLY, and ABCL. Do you have another suggestion that I may consider?
Thanks John
