Q: Thanks for your insights in structuring the TFSA for 2022 and going forward, dated October 26, 2022. To transition to the new "alignment", I will need to transfer a number of Technology stock positions, see above, to a trading account, or sell....and I would like your take on this matter as the intention is to transition is DSG and NVDA.
The present TFSA is tilted, well more than that, like 45% + to tech positions, including VEEV. As the TFSA is tilted to growth-eee positions which ones would be better now held in a trading account, aka lower growth going forward....or if there are any that are no longer high conviction, please let me know....Thanks for all the sound/solid insights......Tom

Q: I'm befuddled about classifying VEEV as in the HealthCare sector. But VEEV" provides industry-specific cloud-based software solutions to address the operating and regulatory challenges of life sciences companies". Seems to me, VEEV is really a software provider and for this reason, I would classify VEEV in the Technology sector. I'm curious what your take is as I want to ensure I get it right for my portfolio analysis....Thanks for you input......Tom

Q: I am considering selling Veev or Abbv and buying Syk or Mdt. Could I have your thoughts on these companies today and which ones have the most long term promise? Would you have other suggestions in US healthcare?

Q: In our “balanced portfolio” we have decided to go to US stocks for our healthcare allocation. Currently holding MDT, VEEV and GH. Are these reasonable holdings? We like a concentrated portfolio so only have these 3 as our healthcare stocks. Would you suggest any changes or potentially a new 4th position? We are buy and hold growth investors looking at greater than 10 years until we would require these funds.

Q: I've held VEEV for a while and it seems to be stalled. Time to move on? If yes, would you recommend shifting the funds to bring ATZ up to 4%? Alternatively, is there another company in the health sector you would recommend in VEEV's stead? Medium-risk investor.

Thank you.

Following the quarterly results from Docusign Veeva and Crowdstrike, would you consider them worthy of an overweight position?

Q: VEEV has taken a big tumble. I can find this " VEEV slips as burgeoning industry headwinds offset strong Q2", plus several analysts who have raised their target, anywhere from $295 - $340. VEEV is part of my growth portfolio, I'm still up 25%. I have most of the growth stocks talked about regularly, except AFRM and NVEI. Looking at momentum/growth rather than sector, would you warrant a switch from VEEV to one of the others, and if so, which one, considering there would be a currency swap involved in NVEI. Thanks!

Q: A little fun. If you had to select a maximum of 10 stocks to purchase and hold for 20 years, which ones would you choose? In this scenario, 100% of all available funds today and in the future would continue to go into these same positions (assuming they continue to exist). There are no parameters on geography, sector or size. The objective is pure growth.
