Q: Hello- a few months ago I took a full position in IWO and am currently about break even, I'm a bit concerned about the possibility of recession and wonder if there's a US ETF that would not suffer as much in a drooping economy in which the smallest companies get impacted earlier. I'm wondering about VO, for example. Thanks

Q: My Suncor holdings have grown nicely since I bought during Covid and enjoyed the rise where we currently match the 2018 highs.

BUT: what would drive further growth for SU share price? I am not looking to hold for dividend only. To me there are headwinds of increased regulatory hurdles, inability to get access to new large pipelines and the socially dim view of anything "oil". Thoughts? Any better bets on energy?

Thanks! And may your day be bright!

Looking for stocks or ETFs actively using AI.

What do you think of CCCS-Q, INBS-Q, REAI-Q, ILAG-Q ? Would you be a buyer now ?

Any better options for a growth portfolio in a TFSA ?

Have a good day,

Q: It was less than two months ago when the Bank of Japan signaled its intention to increase Japan’s interest rates—a move that triggered a massive sell-off in US stocks. Now, the question lingers: If Japan indeed raises interest rates in the future, will history replay its enigmatic melody? Will this time Japan’s interest rate hike cast its spell upon the US stock market? Thanks

Q: Hi 5i team,

What would be your current 5 best (highest conviction) buys in each of the following categories please.
1. small cap
2. mid cap
Hold target is 3-10 years or longer.
I prefer these categories as they seem to have the most torque (in the right environment) albeit also the most risk.


Cheers,
Steve

Q: I need to increase my international exposure. My plan is to accomplish this through ETFs held in a non-registered account.

1) Can you please recommend two ETFs to achieve international exposure.

2) As a member of BMO Investorline I can access commission free ETFs and I am considering vanguard's VI ETF to increase international exposure. What are your thoughts on this ETF and how does it compare versus the ETFs recommended as part 1 of this question?

Thanks!
