Investment Q&A

Q: Results just came out...can you comment on them and the future growth/profit potential? Thanks for your wonderful service....

Q: Hello 5i,
Nice job on the new web site!
I began adding stocks to an otherwise sleeepy TFSA after I joined 5i. I recently used Norbert’s gambit to add us $. Also, thank you 5i, I’m close to 100k in that account. My accounts, taken together are balanced across sectors but lean toward growth. I should add to health sector but not necessarily in the TFSA- so don’t let that restrict your answer.
Of the stocks listed above, which one shows the most potential? Why? What are the growth numbers for 2018.
If not any of the above, those listed are expensive, can you offer a couple of US stock ideas?
Many thanks,

Q: I'm interested in purchasing an ETF that invests in companies that manufacture sophisticated medical diagnostic equipment, body replacement parts(eg knees, hips, etc) and other hi tech devices that address human disabilities/health issues.

Any suggestions?

Q: From the list of us growth play, which 5 would you pick for your rrsp with 10-15 yrs time frame ? Or any other us stocks that stands out in your mind.

Q: Apologies in advance for the length of this question. I am working my way through a report by Bank of America Merrill Lynch on the medium to long term prospects of VR, AR and MR, (Virtual reality, Augmented Reality and Mixed Reality). The upshot is basically that they see very large growth in this sector with applications far and wide. Here is a link for anyone interested https://www.bofaml.com/content/dam/boamlimages/documents/articles/ID16_1099/virtual_reality_primer_short.pdf. There are established large tech companies (FB, AAPL and GOOGL) who are buying up companies in this area and there are smaller companies already working in this space. My question is twofold. Is it, in your estimation a good time to step into these large cap tech stocks if I currently have no position? And are there any companies that are directly in this space that you would recommend? Thank-you in advance.

Q: I am interested in above mentioned Company.
What is your opinion? Buy or Hold?
Thank you.

Q: Is it time to sell Qualcomm now or wait until the sale goes through - if it does? Apparently if the sale goes through the value per share is $70.
I am down 12.5% and I have been under water 3 years now. .
It pays 3.55% so I COULD hold if that is the best strategy .

Q: Newly listed US company (AQ Aquantia) and cannot find any info. Are you able to help here? Thanks.

Q: Is OIH (a U.S. ETF) worth considering for a TFSA?

Q: Hi,
I follow your BE Portfolio plus some picks from your growth portfolio. If you could select 5-7 Stocks or ETF's outside of Canada what would you recommend to balance and address any geographic/sector gaps that exist your BE portfolio? Please take the amount of credits you feel is fair for question.
Thank you,

Q: Hello

I have been holding on to Wells Fargo for the last few years and unfortunately have missed the run up with the other US banks. Its currently in my TFSA, I've been considering selling and purchasing BAC or JPM. Which one would you recommend, is there still some upside? Etrade Financial (although more online trading platform) is another option, what are your thoughts?

Thanks!

Q: Would very much appreciate your thoughts on this? Tx. A

Q: I have made a bit of money with Teva over the years. Kare Schultz is new leader and it looks like he recently successfully turned Ludbeck around----350% in last three years. I am watching Teva stock price plunge and am considering to get back in the next six weeks or so.

What are your thoughts ----at what stock price becomes great value

Q: I have a well diversified CND and US portfolio. I have done well on both SWKS and WBA in the US but wonder if its time to move on from these names due to better opportunities elsewhere? If so, what would you recommend to replace them with and why (can be in different sectors),
Thanks for the great service!
