Q: Hi 5i,
In reviewing my asset allocations, I am underweight in US and International. I am also light on Healthcare, Industrials, and Technology. Are there any companies (top 5) that jump out at you as growth based names that could help with this in terms of a 'two-birds-one-stone' approach?
I have a 10+ year timeline and a high risk tolerance.
Thanks in advance!

Q: What would you suggest as a way to gain exposure to Electric Vehicles (EV’s)?

I have electric producers, as a common denominator, but wonder whether direct investment into auto or parts makers, and/or battery components (lithium/graphite) would be worthwhile.

Any suggestions for some small dabbles?

Q: Hi Peter/Ryan, I have no US stocks in my TFSA, RSP or Margin Accounts. I was thinking of adding some but not sure in which account it is best for them, or if it matters. How would they affect each one and do you have 1 or 2 suggestions for long term hold for each of them based on where it is better to hold them. Thanks

Q: I took a look at LODE a while back when its low P/E caught my eye. Any idea on whether its current momentum is sustainable (or understandable?)? Thanks for your input.

Q: Hi, looking at your Feb 2021 Investor Suite, page 14.

You show an implied return of 6.7% and I'm wondering how you get that. Immediately above the 6.7 are the numbers 236.13 and 123.51 and if you divide those and take the result to the 1/10 power and subtract one you get 6.7%. Trouble is, the 236.13 is described as "Shares Outs." meaning presumably shares outstanding, which really throws me (also, the shares outstanding are actually 2.36 million according to the companies section of the 5i website which suggests you really meant to say shares outstanding). I can see the logic if you meant to say "projected share price in 10 years". Can you explain to me how you get the 6.7%? Thanks.

Q: Hi Peter,

I had asked a couple of questions the other day but got a reply to just one of them so I will ask again.
For the US, I own two ETFs; ZSP (8%) and FTEC (8%). I have USD to add another 20% to the US part of my portfolio and would like 7-8 names to add on the current market weakness/rotation. I would appreciate if you could recommend a few stocks for growth 5-10 years at least, don't need dividends, medium to high risk. These names would be in my RRSP and margin account and buyable at current prices.
Thanks in advance.
Kevin
