Q: Hi 5i team
Let me start by thanking you all for you valuable insights into markets and stock valuations through the years. My question is regarding a tfsa portfolio. I am considering reducing amount of stocks to 20. Which 6 stocks would you let go in order of first to sell to last. Secondly, could you give me a brief opinion/ comment on my present holdings in a tfsa and if there's value in keeping status quo.
Thanks as always
Gilles

Q: Hi, looking at a couple of stocks that have had a good run. TVK comes to mind, I now have about a 7%+ position and doubled my money on this stock (thanks for your good work). I know it’s a personal preference but I’m unsure, part of me says let it run, another says sell at least 25% .
Do you have a set rule that you use with higher growth stock? And of course if I sell I have to find something else, or preserve my capital. (A good problem to have).

Q: hi 5i. sorry for the number of equities in this. you seem to like all (most?) of these companies. I have none of these in my portfolio, but have been trying to get in at lower prices. can you please rank as buy, sell, or hold. can you flag any that you have more concern with re the uncertain investing markets right now ie any to totally avoid? could you give a price point at which you would be buyers of the equities.
cheers and thanks, Chris

Q: Good morning! After the dust settles will Propel, TeraVest and Nebius still be considered a solid investment for a 10 year hold? Would any of these be classified as a compounder and therefore a buy and forget type of investment? Where would they place on the risk scale with 10 being a high risk?
Thank you for your guidance in these times.

Q: In a TFSA, I am down ~30% in both HPS.A and DOO, both of which were smaller positions and now both represent ~0.5% of total equity holdings (so ~1% combined).

If the goal was absolute growth over the long term with a high risk tolerance would you continue to hold or sell at a loss these two securities?

If you were to sell please rank from high to low which of the current securities in the account you would recommend.

Q: I am getting ready to DCA into these stocks in an unregistered account with higher than average risk profile. According to me, these stocks had a bit of a pullback with possibly more on the way.

In what order would you DCA into the stocks mentioned above? Is there any stock that you think should be excluded from this list?

Thanks
