Q: Do you have any timely and suitable names for my TFSA contrib this year? I tend to buy things that are quite growthy in my TFSA. As such its already chock full of technology. Open to US or Canuck names but they need to be quite liquid. Happy New Year

Q: Uber for quite some time has been stalling out in this $61.00 range. HPS has been stalling out in the $81.00 range. Could this go on for quite some time before it moves up, if it moves up? Meanwhile, on my radar 2 securities you are familiar with have been getting a lot of attention lately being ZM and SNAP. Would you recommend them? Wishing you the best of the season.

Q: With a long term view, where might Hammond find itself in 3/5/10 years? They are clearly doing something well, have had amazing returns, but imagine they are still relatively unknown to the greater market (as well as being a sub $1-billion market cap? - lack of institutions own it maybe?)

The addressable market must be growing as everything electrifies - do you think they'll acquire / be acquired? I see it is trading near its 52 week PE high, but is there an argument it is still undervalued? Could this ever be a $5 billon market cap company? Debt seems low. Do you know much about management? Do they ever issue shares (or follow that CSU model of never issuing).

Thanks in advance. - Jeff

Q: Hi, In a strong market and a FED induced rally, above stocks sold off sharply, in Today's trading, perhaps for different reasons. Drop in HPS.a, could be attributed to profit taking against the back drop of 300% jump, this year. But, the other three companies, I thought, will be benefitted with lower rates cycle over 2024/2025. May be, I am wrong. It;s just that, when some stocks don't go up ( and decline) in otherwise strong up market, makes me wonder, what am I missing ? Thank You

Q: I am looking to set up an RESP for grandchildren aged 8 and 6 with about $40k that will be added to annually. I am thinking of purchasing 8 stocks in roughly equal amounts - ISRG, CROX, GOOG, NVDA, BN, LMN, SMCI, HPS.A

Is 8 stocks too limiting and should I look at ETFs for some sectors or should this give the plan a good start and greater diversification can occur as the plan grows?

Anything you see here that raises a red flag or are there other stocks I should consider?

Appreciate your insight.

Q: Would appreciate a couple of options for holding some U. S. $$ in a taxable investment account for at least one year. I am more interested in capital appreciation than in current .income in these interesting times. Sector not an issue. Could be individual securities or ETFs. Thanks for your continuing support. Bill

Q: Looking to invest a portion of available cash into solid smallish-cap companies that have yet to move towards their fair value that could be reached in a more positive part of the cycle - which I am guessing/assuming is coming. Please provide suggestion in either Canadian and/or US markets.

Q: Hello, Hammond Power stock has been so strong ( $52 to $82 ), within a span of less than 2 months. We have a very small 0.60% position, started around $57. Based on your favourable view and analysts' commentary, we want to build the position up to at least 1.5 - 2%. Recently stock has traded in $78-$82 range. Would it make sense to start accumulating in $75-78 range, or wait until next quarter ? Market strategists believe that small cap stocks have a lot of room to catch up. We are just a little concerned with HPS.a stock's incredible 200% + rise, this year and a possibility of stock to falter, for any reason. Thank You

Q: Hi 5i,
In an otherwise balanced portfolio, I'm looking for some ideas for my TFSA.
Current holdings are KXS, LULU, HPS AND ATS.

I'm open to adding to the above names but was wondering if you
could you please recommend 10 Canadian and 10 US stocks that you feel would work well in a TFSA at this time in the market.

Thanks!!
