Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: NVDA now compromises 9% of my total portfolio. What's the maximum weight YOU would be comfortable with? Alternatively, would you consider selling - say - 2% of NVDA and buying VRT? If yes, can you please compare potential risk/reward for both NVDA and VRT over the next two years on a scale of 1-10? Thank you.

Q: In a question from Chris on Jan 30, there was a listing of "buy and forget" stocks. One of them that caught me by surprise was ECN given its pretty dismal performance. Although it has bounced off its lows from late 2023, it has been a fairly poor performer down about 65% from its peak in 2022.
Do you think this one has recovery potential in the long term?

Q: Making a large spousal RRSP contribution soon and am looking for guidance as to the best 3 or 4 stocks with a tilt toward growth that would compliment this group with a brief explanation as to thier merits and why they compliment the existing holdings. Initially had my sights set on DOL, ATS, CNR and IFC but not sure these would be the right choice to maximize compounding for someone with a very long investment horizon.

Wife’s portfolios currently include: ITOT, IEMG, XEF, AVGO, COST, SBUX, RY, FTS, BCE, ATD, DIR.UN, SHOP, GSY, BN, TOI, ATZ, NVEI
Most Mag 7 are owned in my own accounts with adequate exposure when considering combined portfolios so not looking for any of those.
