Investment Q&A

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

Q: You guys hit a home run with GRUB and SPOT which had a recent downgrade but still put up big numbers. I was lucky enough to have taken your advice and bought both of them and am up 35% and 45% respectively in a short period of time. Do you think there is more room for them to run? Would you have a couple of others with a growth outlook like that? Thanks for the hot advice, Dennis

Q: Please deduct number of credits that you deem appropriate. I essentially follow and hold your balanced equity portfolio. It is supplemented with the following US stocks. JPM, STZ, SPOT, NVDA, GOOG, TEAM, UTX, HXL, BIIB and WYNN.

I originally bought WYNN for a trade on the recent dip caused by the Steve Wynn situation. Should I keep it as a long term position or take my profits and look elsewhere.

I have funds for one more position. Do you have any suggestions or should I add to some of the stocks I have.

Are there any of these stocks that you would sell and if so what would you suggest for a replacement.

Thank you for your service! I am sure someone else will ask but please let us know about your thoughts on SIS earnings release. It looked like a miss.

Q: Hi guys,
I own TEAM, JPM, AMAT, GRUB, and AAPL in my RRSP. Each are 4-5% weightings with the exception of AAPL which is 10%. I've owned AAPL for years but I've acquired the other 4 companies within the past 2 months.
AAPL - up 140%, TEAM - down 10% (on yesterday's earnings miss), GRUB - down 10%, JPM - down 5%, AMAT - down 5%.
Do you see any issues with any of these companies? Would you HOLD all or recommend adding to or selling any.
I like to buy and hold long term and have no issues with patience. I just want to be sure that there are no red flags on any of these companies that I am missing...or if I should be viewing their recent drops as a buying opportunity.
thanks for the excellent service.

Q: I've held GOOGL for a while in my TFSA and it has performed well for me. I'm concerned about GOOGL being impacted by the FB data issue so I'm looking to sell and replace with something else in the tech sector. Something with good cash flow - maybe a MSFT or ADBE? My other tech holdings consist of full positions in AAPL, CSU, OTEX, and ACN. Any recommendations from the team? Thanks in advance!!

Q: I would appreciate your opinion of the value, or lack thereof, that the shares of Atlassian Corporation (TEAM) might currently offer? I'm seeking investments that might reasonably be able to provide me with a 10% or better, total return over the next 12 months.

Regardless of your opinion of Atlassian; any suggestions you might have for other firms which one might reasonably be able to expect a 10% total return or better from, over the coming year, would also be welcome.

Wishing you and yours a very Merry Christmas! Cheers and thank you!

Q: Although this UK, NASDAQ listed company is not in your usual wheelhouse, 5i (and Peter in particular) seem quite in tune with the tech area so I am hoping you can provide some information into this company.

It rose about 25% on Friday on its earnings report and has had stellar growth (I think) even without that bump. It is debt free and has money in the bank but does not yet turn a profit. I know individuals who deal with the company and they are quite impressed. Can you provide any further insight into this firm?

Appreciate all that you do.
