Investment Q&A

Q: Hi guys, thanks for the excellent service. Generally TFSA is the place for high growth but my highest growth has been in my RRSP. Is there any compelling reason I should sell anything in RRSP and rebuy in TFSA (e.g., NVDA)? I realize I will be taxed on RRSP withdrawals while TFSA withdrawals are tax-free - but - my RRSP has a lot more cash than my TFSA so there isn't room to move all my growthy stuff over. Because of the relative size of RRSP to TFSA, if I were to do equal weighting of all stocks, I'd only have 4 different stocks in my TFSA, which perhaps is fine? Are there any obvious adjustments that you would make to the following:

RRSP:
XQQ 13.68%
VXC 12.03%
NVDA 7.64%
AAPL 6.70%
JPM 4.73%
BNS 4.52%
GOOG 4.32%
ENB 4.13%
MSFT 3.98%
AMZN 3.86%
RTX 3.51%
COST 3.42%
PG 3.11%
DIS 2.82%
CASH 1.32%

TFSA:
GSY 5.28%
CRWD 3.31%
VEEV 2.50%
ROKU 2.44%
SHOP 2.26%
WELL 0.85%
XBC 1.08%

RESP:
LSPD 0.79%
BYD 0.76%

NON-REG:
SLF 0.51%
T 0.42%

thanks,

Q: Good day. Looking to deploy some new cash, the above stocks are my present US holdings. Any in this group set to take off that could be added to or any sells in the mix? Recommendations to add to this group?

Q: What are your best 5 Growth Ideas in Canada and 5 Best in the USA. Share price not a factor. Your Best Ideas. Thanks a Lot. RAK.

Q: I have small holdings (1 1/2% to 2 1/2% of APTV (+24%)&TSLA(+12.6%) in my TFSA and DOCU(+18.6%), IDRV(+7.77%) & NVDA(+47.29%) in my cash ac over 7 month hold. Looking at adding some more USD and wondering if I should be adding to some of these or buying others. This would be a 3-5 year hold.
Take as many credits as you see fit.
PS: Thanks to you I am up 235% on shopify! Thanks for all you do.

Q: I am looking to increase my healthcare exposure in the US. Would you recommend VEEV or GH or both or would you have other recommendations. Risk is not a factor.
Thanks for your service!

Q: I have more tech equities than I want going forward. Please help me strike one or two off my list by ranking these in order of potential growth over the long term /min 5 years. For fun (since it probably won't affect my decision), please also rank from least volatility to most volatility. Thank you very much!

Q: Bought VEEV last year on the strength of your recommendation. Since then, it's bobbled about +/- 3%. Currently down about 2% in my TFSA. Should I replace it with ATZ...or simply try to be more patient? If the latter, please explain why. Thank you.

Q: Eddy Elfenbein recently wrote a detailed review of Veeva Systems (he also did one on The Trade Desk a few weeks ago for those that want to better understand that company). In general, he likes the company and its prospects but felt it was quite overpriced. I know that many tech growth stocks have seen share price reductions and Veev seems in line with those drops. I have owned the stock for a while and intend to continue to own it. What do you think my expectations should be going forward - slow and steady growth, high growth or it flatlines for several months as it grows into its current valuation?

Appreciate your insight.

Q: Friday messy fun question, please take it lightly. I would like to start reducing the oil companies I bought in April last year. They've done incredibly well, but now I would like to increase my tech growth stocks by opening 1 or 2 new positions. I currently own GOOG, DND, U, CRWD, RDFN, ROKU, VEEV, PINS, and SQ. They have done well under your recommendations even with the recent pullbacks. As no one can time the markets, I am not willing to wait for a surprise interest hike as it is part of a locked-in RSP. It would be a 10+ hold. 1) Without considering size, could you please rank your favourite top 5 companies addressed in this question as of today in terms of strong balance sheet & steady growth potential over time (even in an interest hike environment). 2) Could you please give a brief explanation for the #1 pick only. Thank you very much as always!

Q: Hi,
I am aware these companies are mentioned, often in a positive light, fairly often in your Q&A section. To be honest, I struggle with what you might be seeing that apparently investors don't seem to be aware of, as these have all sold off quite a bit recently. I am interested in whether or not you still feel as positive on these companies now, as you may have in the past. U gapped down in Feb by about 15% and has since dropped about 40% more. VEEV is probably down about 23% from its Feb high, and ROKU about 37% during the same period. I understand there has been a rotation away from tech but these strike me as having a very long way to crawl back up, even though I understand earnings haven't been all that bleak. Am I missing something here? I would be very interested in your thoughts and these and any others you feel might be really under priced lately!
Thanks!
Dawn

Q: Hi Peter and Staff
If I am correct, I believe you were high on DXCM at one point and may not feel as high on it today? It had gone up nicely until recent earnings but downward spiral since then. Is it closer to a buy or a sell in a basket of health care stocks .
Secondly, assuming it might be deemed not as good as some or all of the following,, please rank the top 4 in order from
ABBV, CRRX, ISRG,MDT,SYK,VEEV and WELL

THanks for all you do
Dennis

Q: I am looking for growth. I own these US stock. Are there any you would sell in order to buy others in the group or other US stock?

Q: GH. VRNS, VEEV - which one of these stocks will have the most growth/torc going forward?
Thanks for your service!

Q: My healthcare stocks include ABBV,VEEV,and Well.I am considering switching from VEEV to STRYKER. What do you think?

Q: What are your Top 3 cad and top 3 US stocks regardless of sectors /risk. please provide brief explanation as why you like them Thanks for your recommendations they are much appreciated

Q: Good afternoon folks
BNTX has been doing very well as of late. I am up 35% ish. Also my entire health sector weighting is 6.85%...all US$...BNTX is 2% of this total. I also own MDT, DXCM, ZTS, GH, & VEEV. I have too many stocks in general throughout all sectors and am trying to sell off several slowly but surely. ( I have 66 stocks). The problem being I fall in love with each of them...(yes....very bad I know)...as they have mostly been carefully chosen and watched over almost every day.
My question is should I sell all of my BNTX or shave but sell any of the others mentioned above,
Thanks as always for your sound advice.

Q: I am looking to increase my health exposure. I am looking at TDOC, DOC or VEEV and already have a full position in WELL. Do you prefer one over the other, all 3 or do you have another recommendation in this space?
Thanks for your service!

Q: If only one could be owned, which would be your choice today and why? Thanks.

Q: I have these stocks in varying amounts in my TFSA . I have decided to sell one, two or three names to fund a purchase. Which three would you sell first? Thanks as always

Q: Current market volatility has me seeking companies that have 'wide moats' making them somewhat less susceptible to market noise. I would appreciate it if you would suggest the names of some American companies that you would consider to be 'wide moat' types of companies. If there are some that currently provide value this would be a bonus.
