Investment Q&A

Q: Dear 5i,
Here are the stocks I have left to purchase from your Balanced portfolio, can you please place these in order or how attractive they are at this time for a long-term hold? Also, is QQQ a good starting point for US focus holding in a registered account? Thank you.

Q: Hello guys,
I was hoping you could rate the current buy-ability of these industrial discretionary companies (byd,doo,mg,tt,sis) and of these clothing discretionary companies (goos, lulu,nke, atz) with 10 being a great buy, for new money. Any concerns, and is there anything similar that you like better?

Thanks,

Peter

Q: Please provide the case for and against ATZ. I'd also like your opinion on valuation especially in light of compression of multiples in the market. Do you think it is over valued and if so to what extent? Thank you.

Q: My timing of buying flutter was unfortunate, am I to assume that it has just been punished for being an expensive growth company along with the rest? Do you like a guy of Aritzia with today’s weakness due to financing? Thx as always for great service

Q: Thoughts on quarterly earnings report? I appreciate your reply.

Q: Any news on these two? Or just the general market shift?

Thanks,
Robert

Q: The other day Brad was asking about the current trend of shifting to value and a concern with rising rates & inflation, and wondered whether it would good to lighten up on growth stocks. The 5I answer covered a number of points and suggested adding sector diversification or balancing out with some value stocks. and that “high grading” things a little might be prudent. Although I like the sector diversification they offer, if I wanted to do some “high grading”, would I want to move out of these 3 names? They have been increasing in value ( by the way, I came to consider them because of 5I, so thanks). Or do you see them as being sufficient "grade" to continue to hold? hank you for your excellent service.

Q: Hi,

I have the above three in my TFSA and each is down a bit (DND the most). In which order would you add to them? If you wouldn't average down, let me know.

Thanks,
Robert

Q: Hello 5i team,

According to portfolio analytics, I am underweight in Consumer Staples and Consumer Discretionary as well as US exposure. I am a growth investor with a long-term horizon. This is for a TFSA.

In Consumer Staples I hold ATD.B and PBH and was thinking of adding COST.US.

In Consumer Discretionary I have ATZ, BOYD, DOO, LULU.US and was thinking of adding MG and possibly LNF.

Could you suggest some Canadian and US names for both Staples and Discretionary that would compliment my existing holdings?

Thanks for your advice.

Q: Hi,

Can you suggest a few stocks which could give good returns over the next year or two.
I have majority of my portfolio in etf’s , just wanted to play with about 10% of my portfolio into something high risk/ high reward stocks.

Q: I want to buy positions in these companies in my unregistered account. Could you put them in order to purchase based on market economy timing, if possible. And in my TFSA I'd like to purchase ECN, LGO, ATS--any thoughts on sequence and timing of purchase? Thank you.

Q: Hi.
Could you name 3 Canadian and 3 US stocks that have a very high growth profile irrespective of sector, for a 2-5 year time frame .
Thanks

Q: I know these two companies vary a lot in price but wondering which one would me make the most money in my TFSA

Q: I currently have Aritzia, BRP, Magna, and Boyd Group in my consumer cyclicals. Would you replace any of them with Amazon, or do you think my current picks are better? Thanks

Q: I’m adding to a partially established portfolio (growth-oriented, long-term). I’m interested both in taking advantage of the recent tech downturn (although not too much, as I’m already somewhat tech-heavy) and in further diversifying. Two questions:

1. I own partial positions in the following securities and am looking to add more. Could you rank them in your order of preference for purchasing now? Any you’d avoid buying now?

WELL, SHOP, ATZ, STC, PHO, ENGH, KXS

2. I’m considering buying positions in the following new securities (not easily comparable, I know), with a view to diversity and growth, as well as US exposure. Could you rank them in order of preference for purchasing now? Any you’d avoid buying now?

BNS, SLF, PLC, MG, LAC, REAL, TFII, NVDA.US, ROKU.US, SQ.US

Thanks for your great work and please feel free to dock me for two questions.

Chris

Q: Looking for a Canadian company with great growth prospects that may be 'unloved' today. From a pure growth perspective, how would you rank the three for a new position today?

BBTV and REAL don't (yet) seem to be getting much mention on Reddit and other forums that I follow - indicating to me that there may be an opportunity on top of growing fundamentals?

Q: Hi
Ignoring tech industry companies, are there any companies that you think will benefit from market changes that have/will occur as a result of Covid-19? Covid-19 has changed so many ways people do everyday things and companies that will benefit from this change are my target.

Q: My grandson of 23 is starting his 1st tfsa with $2500 to begin and needs a core holding start. please suggest a stock only and etf only models. Which one or mixed off, would you deploy today.
thanks

Q: I am looking to put 5 stocks into a tfsa and put them in a growth portfolio. Which would be your top 5 for growth

Q: I currently have full positions in BAM.A, GSY, WMT, VEEV with half positions in CRWD, KXS, TTD, U, and VZ. Are you comfortable with this portfolio? I am contemplating reducing KXS or removing U with ATZ, LMT, AC or MG. I'd appreciate your thoughts on any necessary adjustments to make at this time.
