Q: Hi folks at 5i,
My current holdings are as follows in three different accounts, (tsfa, rrsp, lira)
VTI 14.52%
VEU 8.73%,
VCE 5.85%
SHOP 5.54%,
CSU 5.11%
CYBR.B 4.73%,
OTEX 4.50%
XEG 4.47%
SIS 4.03%
SPOT 3.72%
FLT 3.71%
T 3.66%
GUD 3.46%
KXS 3.24%
DOL 2.97%
BCI 2.51%
PHO 1.78%
Fixed Income:
VSB 4.73%
XCB 4.50%
XHY 4.33%
Cash 3.58

1- I am planning on selling FLT (per your recommendation) from a previous question. Which stock would you purchase from the growth portfolio to put the cash right back at work?
2- Thinking of also selling T and adding some to VCE and the rest to buy another name from the growth portfolio. Would you be comfortable with this? Seeing that the bulk of my portfolio are in large blended ETF's. If so, which name would you buy?
3- Debating if I should keep SPOT. Initial bought it for a 5 year hold. What are your thoughts on selling and adding to VTI or maybe buy a low volatility US ETF? Or any other thoughts?
Please deduct as many credits needed. I have plenty to spare :)

Thank you

Q: Hi 5I team.

Other than XUS (15%) I really do not have much exposure to US Stocks. Would you please recommend a few US stocks or Sector based ETFs to invest about 10% of new cash. I have a few options based on Mad Money and Market Call. Any preferences of the stocks I've listed or other ETF suggestions would be helpful. My horizon is for 5+ years.

Thanks

Q: Hi 5i,

Could you provide a short comparison of these 3 companies, how they overlap and differ?

If one has investments in SHOP and SQ would they "supersede" Lightspeed, or could they compliment? When does Lighspeed start trading?

From my preliminary research Lightspeed appears to be a combination of both SQ and SHOP where they provide POS payment systems with the ability to create a webstore (but seem more focused on brick and mortar vs. Shopify being more online)

Thank you!

Q: What is your opinion of this company? I feel like with social trends moving in the direction of "pets are more a part of the family" that people are willing to do what they can for their fur babies. Also with the trend of more meat and other live stock increasing in the diets around the world do you see this company as a good long term hold with the stock price increasing?
Thanks
