Q: Hi,

I hold a 2.5% position in NVDA after selling half to lock in my original costs. I'd like to pick up another high growth chip maker/developer/fabricator, and the listed companies are on my watch list. Ideally the company would have a great balance sheet (net cash), a pipeline of great products and great opportunity for growth - no dividend needed. Can you endorse one or two and/or recommend something not on the list?

Q: Hi again,

I asked a question about SAFE the other day. Thanks for your answer there.

I was actually asking because of the I didn't know whether the new public offering represented a positive or a negative sign. Can you comment on that?

Also, they talk about offering these shares at $61 until Nov 13 (tomorrow!) which is lower than the market price. I am a shareholder and would be interested in buying at this price, but am not sure if it's available to me or how I would acquire the shares.

Feel free to make this a public question if you think the information would be useful to other members. If you could reply in time for me to buy the shares (if I'm able), I'd appreciate it but don't expect it.

Q: I am looking to add more healthcare to my portfolio - thinking about adding Pfizer plus an ETF. Given the recent vaccine news I am surprised that the price of PFE has not really soared. Can you shed some light on this? Do you feel PFE has upside growth potential - is it a good buy at the current prices? Patrick

Q: Can I get your thoughts on PSNL please, it's gotten some attention now that ARK has disclosed they own 10.1%. Is this company good enough for a starter position?

Q: Hello 5i,
I'm having trouble making sense of the merger of these two companies.
Specifically, I owned 300 shares of LVGO pre-merger. How many TDOC shares at what price and how much cash should receive. For some reason my math doesn't match what RBC Direct shows.
Thank you so much!

Q: ABC recently reported its annual and 4th qtr results. Operations looked good but they booked a massive reserve for their opioid problem which completely wiped out the company's equity. Yet some analysts have upgraded their forecasts. Presumably this didn't breach any loan covenants but I worry that it might impede future borrowings or restrict future dividend payments etc. I understand that actual payments are to be spread over many years but I still worry that it is a big negative.
Your thoughts will be appreciated.

Q: I have to add US tech exposure (missed the boat) and only 4 percent which translates to $350,000. I already have 60 holding (total portfolio) which is already high but I’m ok with it given the size of my portfolio. Which would you pick? Should I just buy all 4 at 1 percent holding increasing to 64 holdings or pick just 1 or 2?

Q: I try to buy best in breed companies or leaders in each sector/industry with the goal of holding for the long term. With the current sell off in high growth tech stocks my buy price alerts in the above companies are starting to get triggered. During times when we get a market sell off or sector rotation, as we may be getting over the next few days or weeks, I like to only buy one or 2 positions per day in order to keep some powder dry if the sell offs continue. If I don't hold positions in any can you rank in order of what you would buy first to last and please feel free to add other companies to this list you feel are good buys. Thanks for all your help.

Q: As an income investor with some growth, I have some US money unused in our TFSA accounts. Could you give me some suggestions on US stocks you feel still have good valuations. I am lower in Tech, Consumer and industrial sectors.
Thanks so much!
