Q: I appreciate your guidance, and I don’t reach out often, so thank you in advance for your time. For a retired investor with a reasonably safe and conservative RRIF—who also does some consulting and has accumulated some extra cash—could you recommend two stocks with strong potential to double within the next year?

I understand that opportunities with this level of upside are inherently volatile and could decline 50–75%, but I’m comfortable with that risk for a small portion of my portfolio. It still feels like a better bet than buying hundreds of lottery tickets.

I’d appreciate a brief explanation of the rationale behind your two selections.

Q: Looking at some of the construction/engineering stocks. Since early summer of 2023, the larger companies STN and WSP are up about 50% and 30% respectively, but the smaller companies ARE and BDT have been massive winners, as ARE is roughly 4 times what it was then, and BDT is roughly 6 times what it was, gains of about 300% and 500%. Is the vast outperformance from ARE and BDT just a case of smaller companies being able to grow faster, or is there something fundamentally different in their businesses? Dol you think that ARE and BDT will continue to outperform STN and WSP?

Q: Really enjoyed Chris White's inaugural appearance on BNN Market Call. Chris mentioned something along the lines that high beta stocks tend to have higher compounding (better returns even with above-market PE ratios). If this is indeed true (generally speaking), can you explain why this would be the case (the logic or math underlying this thesis)? Or, if I misunderstood what was said, please correct me/explain.

Q: I am looking to deploy cash sitting in my TFSA. I have "full" positions in NVDA, SHOP and GOOG. "Partial" positions in BN, CLS, BANK, NBIS, RKLB and PNG. And finally, "starter" positions in HOOD, GLXY and App.

1) Would you be comfortable with the overall balance in the account?
2) Would you deploy the funds into 2 or 3 of the existing holdings and if so, which ones?
3) Would you start a new position(s) to increase diversity and if so where would you go?
4) Would you eliminate any of the current position dues to overlap or other reasons?

Thanks,
Terry

Q: Hello:

Canadian banks have had a great run. Valuations have markedly changed more than I would have predicted. At what valuation might you trim into this strength? What headwinds could be foreseen?

Many thanks.

Q: Are there any restrictions on the kind of stocks one can put in a TFSA or a RRSP? Can "penny" stocks be put in? Stocks on the Vancouver exchange?
Is there any input on this from the CRA?
