Q: Hi 5i,

To piggyback on the answer to Josh on recommendations for a TFSA:
We have BAM.A and GSY already. We can add to these stocks or in the short-term would cruise (CCL:US) or vacation booking stocks (SABR) that are cyclical and "hot" be preferred over BAM.A, GSY or KXS? It is a higher impact, shorter play theme (1 year or less).

Can you help us understand the selection of KXS? EBITDA and Sales Growth are forecasted to be lower next year though EPS getting a big boost next year. We can't wrap our head around the growth potential to have KXS in a TFSA. We now have this stock in an RRSP.

Thank you for your awesome service.

Cheers,
Debbie and Jerry

Q: Good morning. I'm trying to decide on whether to add to my existing KXS or start a new position in either DND or TOI. I have a long time frame. Are the prospects for DND/TOI compelling enough to start one or even two new positions or should I just build on KXS, which you suggested way back and which has been a stellar performer.

I have new money to allocate. Which ones of these are your favorites for 5 year + hold notwithstanding they have different risk profile and in different sectors (best overall risk / reward. I am underweight small cap). I already own KXS and ENGH but i could add to existing positions. Thank you!

Q: Over the years CSU has been building in my TFSA and UnReg account to the point where it is too large of a single holding. I am thinking of selling enough to buy two stocks and keep an equal amount of CSU. Thoughts are buy KXS and TOI. I would very much appreciate your suggestions/thoughts on this please. Open to US ideas as well. Thanks again.

Q: According to the portfolio analyzer, I need to reduce my tech. These are the companies I own (I'm not entirely sure WELL belongs on this list). Where should I start with reducing? Probably 2-3 names, or a partial disposition of a few. I'm up on all. Thanks!

Q: Hi - I recently subscribed to Portfolio Analytics and I was looking at the suggested sector allocations of which I am out of whack. So I need to scale back in Technology - out of the above holdings, could you pls let me know which you would considering selling first? Or if they are all good for the long term (I have 10+ years), I could look at reducing position sizes.

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan, and Team,
This is a two-part question, so please feel free to deduct enough credits.
(1) In Portfolio Analytics, is it appropriate to enter zero for the cost basis? After all, we didn't pay anything for these shares. (Thank you 5i)
(2) In our combined accounts, prior to the spin-out, we were already overweight in Technology, holding ABST, CSU, ENGH, XIT, and KXS. In order to balance our accounts, what, if anything, would you recommend we do? It would be costly to reduce all the holdings which I'm reluctant to do.
Thanks in advance for your valued advice and opinion.

Q: I'd like a few stocks that I can hold in a Cdn RSP account that you think would do well, growth wise, in the next few years. I understand that risk will have to be taken. I'm eyeing KXS. Do you still think NVDA has room to grow?

With the current market volatility, I want to review my tech holdings and dispose of weaker ones. The review criteria are: 1. Profitable 2. Double digit revenue growth forecast 3. Healthy balance sheets. From the listed companies above, which do NOT meet these criteria? Many thanks.
