Q: With the VIX above 30 and sure to continue to be volatile in the coming weeks, how would you advise investors to step into the current market? Can you provide a couple of examples of companies you would be buying into this volatility?

Thank you

Q: Energy is obviously trading at a premium, given the current conflict, and with this in mind I was thinking of taking advantage of the bump and trimming my CNQ and SU positions. While I don't have any concerns about the companies, it would seem to make sense to monetize some of those gains. That being said, the current conflict has obviously impacted other sectors and companies negatively. What are some opportunistic buys (in your opinion) of companies that are currently depressed by the current conflict, but whose balance sheets and business models are sound, and who will probably do fine over the next 5 years.

Q: Hi 5i,

1). Disregarding company size, type etc. but looking for growth, if one were to buy any of the above noted stocks (MU, COHR, ASML, TER, LRCX, AMAT and ELVA) what buying order would you place them in?

2). And for the top 3 stocks why would you consider them your top 3?

3). Would you rank them any differently if oil prices were to remain elevated for say longer than 2 months, which may have an impact on certain companies more than others?

Thanks!

Q: How would you rank the listed names today for new TFSA additions?
Read Answer Asked by Andrew on March 16, 2026
Q: Hi,
In an earlier question today you responded being OK selling GRID and replacing with ELVA. Would you please give a brief reason why?
Would you still be OK switching even if selling GRID would result in a capital gain? (Note: the gain would be offset by previous year losses)
Thanks
