Q: I enjoyed your piece in the Globe comparing FAANG to DOCKS. Not considering weightings, could you provide 5 US stocks where you currently see "FAANG" like potential?

Q: Hi 5i,

I own all the above in the healthcare sector. After reading many comments on JNJ, I am getting a bit concerned. Would you continue to hold on or would you replace it with something else in the same sector? It is inside an RSP so no tax for selling and it is a long term hold as I do t need the money for over a decade.

TIA!

Q: I only own 2 USA stocks, JNJ and PFE. JNJ has grown over the years to 2 full positions so I need to reduce my holdings in JNJ. JNJ pays a nice 2.7% dividend and has grown significantly. What recommendations would you have for a replacement that pays a similar dividend and has some growth potential. I am retired and rely upon the dividends generated in my RRIF.

Q: I have held both Amazon and Shopify as a means to gain exposure to the online commerce sector. Given the relationship between the two, would you recommend owning choosing only one, continuing with both or adding another name into the mix?

Q: Hello 5i,
Upon the recommendation of selling JNJ 64 shares with $6,000 profit, should I add PG to my portfolio or add to my ABBVIE, MRK and CSH.UN. Now I am at 5% in health sector holding these four stocks. I have 60 positions in all with 46 positions in segregated funds. I am 72 years young and investing for income. This is going mostly into an RRSP.
Thank you,
Stanley

Q: Recently, 5i has supported members' suggestions to switch out of JNJ into something else given the legal difficulties that JNJ faces. I generally like to hold indefinitely; given this anticipated time frame, and my preference for safety and a good/growing dividend, do you think I should switch as well? Do you view the alternatives I've listed as less or more risky than JNJ overall? Are there non-pharmaceutical alternatives in the US healthcare space that would provide an equally secure and growing dividend that you would recommend? Thank you.

Q: What are your thoughts on Prologis (PLD)? (notwithstanding your non-US coverage) Is this a good way to invest in the real estate market in the US? It pays a nice healthy dividend, and seems to be a steady Eddy company with some growth ahead of it. Do I have it right if I wish to invest in this for steady dividend/some growth, in an RSP?
