Q: I have been contributing to my TFSA since inception and I currently have $90,000. I just put in $6000 as my 2019 contribution and I'm wondering what stocks I should look at. I'm 27 years old, have a long term time horizon, and I'm very comfortable with a lot of risk. Looking mainly for growth at this point. I currently have 30% of my account in the following (wxm, iwo, xsu, tdb3055 and RBF1035) (pretty well equal amounts). In addition I hold T, rY, BNS, JE, Enb, dol, ala, cjr, and fts all set up in Drips in roughly equal amounts. I also hold about 10% of my tfsa in ABM, EDT, loto and GQ for risky plays, all of which are down 50% except abm which is up 50%. what do you suggest adding at this point? Thanks so much!

Q: My question revolves around Peter's webinar and the thought we should know when to sell our losers. I bought the above just before the decline last year. All outpaced (negatively)the market decline considerably. During the recent market rally 2 have not participated with the market, the others have basically market performed. Leaving the value at this point -23%. There have been some misses in the last reports for these companies. As an investor what am I looking for now to continue to hold these positions or be a seller.
Thank you,
Mike

Q: Hi 5i team,

Of the stocks that have recently hit 52 week highs in 2019, which of these stocks are you comfortable buying/holding and you feel have the most conviction of hitting further 52 week highs?
I prefer Canadian stocks but if you feel there are US listed stocks worth mentioning that follow this trend...that would be a nice bonus. :)

I realize this might be considered momentum investing (or trading) but stocks hitting 52 week highs generally continue that ride for a bit.
And for those good companies that are missing earnings (KXS, GC, TOY), they seem to be getting no love at all....even though this is likely a quarterly event...hopefully.

Is there a site where we can get this info, maybe on a weekly/monthly basis? G&M used to have this but it is a paid feature now. :(
I did find https://www.tradingview.com/markets/stocks-canada/highs-and-lows-monthly-high/ but there are only a few filters to be applied. It does however have an earnings calendar that might be useful to some.

Your site has the daily highs but unless we are watching this daily it can be a task. Can a filter be added in the future to at least view monthly or YTD highs?

Cheers,
Steve

Q: I am interested in increasing my US content, but do not wish to purchase directly from the US. I am looking for some Canadian ETFs based on US Equities to add to my otherwise balanced TFSA for a 5yr+ hold. I currently hold ZWH. Wondering if you could give me your top 5 picks for growth. I would be interested in your best suggestion to play FAANG stocks as well in a Canadian ETF..

Your thoughts on the IPO priced at $16- what is the price X sales ?
The deal is apparently oversubscribed but seems pricey ..

Q: PBH, NFI, KXS, TSGI, GC, BNS, SIS, CCL and now TOY. Not good. It feels like, for some time now, a lot of risk but not the commensurate reward. Please comment.
