Q: Hi, I'm thinking of gradually reducing my individual stocks and moving into etfs for an all around set it and forget it roughly $3 million portfolio for someone retiring in the next few months. Can you give me your suggested etfs and percentages to hold to accomplish this balance? A chunk of these funds are not invested yet so I'd also like to know how you would suggest deploying these funds? Would you edge in gradually over a period of time or just get the money working? I'd really appreciate any advice you could give me in this format.
Thank you as always!

Q: Hey team 5i: I’ve paid the price for hanging on to my Lightspeed LSPD shares. I bought into the company in the Spring of 2020, watched it reach its peak of $160.00 plus, per share and yes; was foolish enough to keep the shares during its massive decline, thinking the Company could fight off the Shorts, in much the same way Shopify did a couple of years prior. Anyway, I wish I could say you live and learn, but I just can’t seem to grasp that skill of when to sell! I’m encouraged with the recent change of leadership, but not all that confident that Dax Dasilva can make the changes necessary to bring the stock price back to where it once was! / I’ve been watching Vitalhub Corp (VHI) over the past # of weeks and note the positive commentary as it relates to it being a stock to watch! / Would it be a wise decision to sell my LSPD shares and buy into VHI? / Thank You in advance. I appreciate your great service. Stan.

Q: Hi team, I hold the above in more or less equal weights and I need to sell one to fund my RIF payments for the year. Which one would you expect to show the least growth in the next year? Or would you chip away at all of them equally?

Thanks as always, Rod

Q: Today, on a risk scale of 1 to 10, 10 being high risk, where would you place a portfolio of 3 parts vbal and 1 part vcns for an 89 and 83 year old couple? Funds should never be required for use, other than being transfered as an inheritance. If wanting to decrease risk a bit, would a one year gic for say 25% be the best idea or?

Q: Good afternoon, Just wondering if your conviction for Elastic N.V. is still as high as it was several weeks ago? Since the drop following the recent earnings report, ESTC hasn't really participated much in any of the tech rallies. I'm down about 11% and wondering if I should be patient, or consider selling and adding to other high conviction picks already owned, such as NXT, VRT or AXON? Thanks. Brad
