Q: Bnn had a guest on today saying time to sell shop and he predicts the stock to continue its downward trend to $220. What would your response be to this prediction

Q: Hello,

I’ve always wondered why certain companies let their share price run into the thousands and rarely if ever split their shares. For a small retail investor like myself paying 2000- $3000 USD for an Amazon or Alphabet is simply not possible. I’ve always suspected it may be a philosophy of management and or founders who all still have significant influence in the mentioned companies.

Q: Hi group what you feeling on the big tech stocks at present are they a buying opportunity or a value trap? also is oil an attractive entry point right now or is it just a blip to the upside thanks for your insight. what your favorites in tech / energy or should i just stay away till everything settles down

Q: hi. can you provide the PE and PEG on shopify (current and forward). I see different numbers on different websites. and do you see any new challenges for SHOP going forward re today's fed minutes? and is this a good entry point? thanks chris

Q: Hi, We have 3 TFSA accounts, where we sold some SHOP, last year and made cash withdrawals. As a result, this year, we have available contribution room between $30-40k, in each account. We like to wait for an opportunity for a Growth stock to transfer from our Non Regd accounts ( there are separate accounts for each) for an in-kind contribution. Present allocation in the TFSA accounts is as follows.
CSU 25-30%
SHOP 35%
LSPD 30%
NVEI 10%

We are not worried about concentration, as TFSA funds are less than 5% of our Total Investment Portfolio, which is fairly diversified. Objective is to optimize Growth stocks in a TFSA setting. There is sufficient quantity in Non regd accounts, for all the five stocks listed in the question.

We were planning to add SHOP, with today's 10% decline and some TOI, as we have none in TFSA's.

What would be your recommendation ?

Thank You

Q: Hi 5i, do you recommend buying SHOP at $1380, with a possible sell at $1480?

Q: I hold positions in GSY, AFRM, and SHOP, all under water at the moment. Would you hold all 3 for the long run? Sell either GSY or AFRM?

Q: yesterday you said a good entry point for Shopify was 1700. It's down to under 1600 today on heavy volume. Would you recommend buying today at this price? Does the heavy volume be of concern.

Q: What is a good price point to buy UPST, GOOGL, NVDA, LSPD.TO, ATZ..TO and SHOP.TO and NVEI.TO for 2022?

Q: SHOP has been drifting down quite a bit and seems to have no traction at all for the past couple of weeks. Realize it's a volatile stock. However, is there anything to be concerned about? Any news making the rounds that might explain recent performance? Do you still consider it one of the better long term investments for growth?

Q: Hi Guys, I recently listened to a financial guy who was asked to compare LSPD to SHOP, his basic point was that Shop's growth was organic, LSPD not so much and more by acquisition which by nature is harder to integrate into a common business this thesis made sense to me. Can you offer an opinion on growth organic vs acquisition & would you expect strong organic growth from lSPD in the future for a long term investment.

Q: Your opinion on the best balance of growth and safety between shopify and lightspeed?
Thank you.

Q: Thanks for all the work that the 5i team does. I just retired and saved a good nest egg. I should note that about 45% of my portfolio is in fixed income and it is not included in this question. I enjoy keeping an eye on the market and investing. I read your answers to questions daily. I like about 20% exposure to tech stocks (good ones like aapl, goog, shop, etc).
I have selected a total of only 20 stocks in all sectors and I have weighted them as best I could to meet the portfolio analytics suggestions (adjusted by me for more tech). I have say $170K in Unregistered, $150K in TFSA and a much bigger chunk in SDRSP (Minus the 45% Fixed income), I would like to put the same 20 stocks (weighted as per above) in each portfolio BUT in the bigger chunk SDRSP put 60% of the SDRSP funds into the 20 stocks and put the remaining 40% of SDRSP funds in 4 Value ETFs (2 CDN, 2 US) and 2 INTL ETFs. Therefore, I would have the same 20 stocks in three portfolios and 6 ETFs in the SDRSP.
This makes perfect sense to me … but maybe you have other thoughts. I would like your expert opinion on this approach please.
Thanks so much and happy holidays

Q: Good morning
I have some cash in my TFSA that i would like to put to work before the end of the year and then in early January to complete the position with my contribution for 2022.
What are your 3 favorite picks for a TFSA in 2022 in Canada and 2 picks in the US?
Thks 5i for all your help over the years and a MERRY CHRISTMAS to all at 5i
Thks
Marcel

Q: Hi the great team, can you explain volatility of shopify?

Q: Hi 5i,
I’m in the process of rebalancing my RRSP and TFSA and looking to be greedy while others are fearful.
Specifically moving TD, FTS, T, and LNF to an RRSP so that my TFSA can be growth oriented.
My remaining TFSA positions would be as follows:
- Half Positions: NVEI, EGLX, LSPD, WELL, U, APPS, BAM.A, SIS, DND, BYD, MITK
- Full Positions: GSY, TOI, CRWD, ATZ

I am planning to deploy as follows:
- Complete existing positions: NVEI, LSPD, APPS, U
- New Partial Positions: AT, XYL
- New Full Positions: DOL, SHOP, VEEV, ANRG, ATD, TIXT
Would you swap out anything on this list that would better compliment my existing positions? I have a 10+ year horizon so I’m leaning towards aggressiveness.

Thanks!

Q: Hello 5i,
My investments have grown nicely in 2021: thank you!
I’ve categorized the above assets into three buckets:
Technology: nvda,kxs,toi,csu =12.8%

Communication: goog,apps,kind =6.5% (goog is 5%)
Consumer discretionary: appl,shop,lspd =8% (lspd=<1)
Total= 27%
Please comment on outlay and provide ideas for improvement. Am I being too cute with my categorization buckets?
Many thanks for your opinion.
