Q: I have these 2 in a TFSA, where the goal is to maximize growth. Do you see either as still having good growth ahead or are there other equities with more potential. If you still like the 2, which would you want your investment to go? FYI, currently about GSY @2.5.% weight and TFII @ 3.5%. Many thanks for your excellent service.

Q: So I looked at my returns at the end of July and my TFSA was up 39% in 7 months. I'd have taken that as a decent return over 48 to 60 months. So early this week before the DnD acquisition and the Nuvei short report I sold DCBO, DnD, LSPD , because my 39% return was nullified. My thought was to add 3 of the 4 TOI,TSU,TFII,or TCN . Should I add 3 of the 4 and top up KXS and GSY in the new year or add all 4 of the T's?

I have $180,000 split evenly amongst above companies in RRSP. I was going to begin withdrawing $10,000 every year and am looking for strategy to draw down to maximize growth of account. Is there a ranking of companies to sell first, or take a bit from each? I like them all so tough call for me. Appreciate all your advice since my initial membership in 5I.

Q: Looking forward to 2022 I think there is a recession coming at us. (Personal Opinion). Looks to me that growth companies are going to continue to face severe headwinds. I also think industrials, financials, energy, and health care will be the sectors that will start to outperform others. Of course I'm open to debate regarding my choices and welcome your opinions. However, I would appreciate 3 or 4 examples of companies that you believe are set up to outperform in these sectors. If I've missed any sector please feel free to add your ideas. Thanks for your valued suggestions.

Q: I have historically held my investments in mutual funds through a financial advisor. I subscribed to 5i Research approximately 3 years ago and made my first investments in equities and an ETF based primarily upon information obtained from 5i Research. The returns on VGRO ETF and my equities have been 2 to 4 times the gain for my mutual funds. I recently upgraded my subscription to include Portfolio Analytics. Based upon portfolio analytics, my current portfolio is reasonably well balanced with recommendations to add healthcare and industrials as well as some international exposure. I have cash on hand that I want to invest. I will hold my investments for the next 5 to 10 years. I am looking at purchasing some additional equities and an ETF with good growth potential at moderate risk. Please provide top 10 recommendations with rankings for stocks that I should consider adding to my portfolio. Please provide recommendations for top 5 ETFs with rankings that I should consider adding to my portfolio. What is your current view on VGRO? Would you suggest topping up my investment in VGRO?
