What are your top 5 conviction stocks currently (Canadian or US)?

Thanks,

Q: Elon Musk predicted that by 2040 there would be at least 10 billion humanoid robots.

Who really knows, what's your opinion on that.

If something like that did happen, which companys would you be investing in now?

Or is it early?

Thank you.

Q: Hi 5i,

Could you please rank these 5 stocks in terms of which you would purchase now for a 3 to 5 year hold, with growth being the main (but not total) focus?
And if you could give a bit of background for your reasoning that would be much appreciated.
Thanks!

Q: Good Morning,

I've recently read two investment articles suggesting that the memory chip rally may likely have peaked. As I hold Micron and Teradyne, I'm wondering if you can share your thoughts on the subject. Thanks very much.

Q: Hello 5I,

I like what I am reading about TER and your thoughts from 5I's Q&A. The stock price has recently retreated with the tech selloff, and I am looking to nibble slowly. At what price would you jump in?

Thank you as always for the wonderful commentary and the great questions posted from the 5i community. Cheers.

Q: I very much enjoyed reading your AI Stack report and have adjusted some of my holdings accordingly. I hold: NBIS, NVDA, AVGO, MU, TER, VRT, GOOG and MSFT. All between 2-3% weighting. Do I need to hold both NVDA and AVGO? If not, I would sell AVGO. Assuming AVGO is sold, which would you be inclined to top up: NVDA, NBIS, MU, TER, VRT or GOOG? Thank you.

Q: Can you describe the growth potential of TER and whether you feel current prices are sustainable or I should wait for a pull back?

For other robotics and automation stocks and broader ETFs what would your suggestions be ? I am currently in ROBO how does it compare to the others?

Lastly, do you feel robotics and automation is one use case of AI where there is a strong business model right now? I can’t see why this sector will not increase exponentially

Q: So many members ask questions where they ask you to rank a number of companies which they suggest. Let me change that up a. bit. Please rank the top 10 Canadian companies that YOU think have the best chance of yielding the highest returns for 5i members In 2026. Perhaps an unfair question but I"m curious.

This was a question asked earlier which seems quite popular. Can I ask the same question for US stocks
Thanks

Q: Hello 5i,
First of all, I wold like to thank you for the "Five from 5i" in general, but specifically the "Is Inflation Higher Than We Think" article - a great read!!
Secondly, pertaining to the article about the fee reductions for some Vanguard ETF's, I notice that VIG is there, but not VGG. Would VGG receive any benefit from the VIG fee reduction, given that it isn't specifically mentioned. (unless it was there, and I missed it - always a very real possibility....)
Thirdly, I am looking for some current recommendations for my grandchildrens' RESP's. Their ages are 5 - 7 yrs. old. One Family RESP holds BN (up 112+ %) and the other holds VGG (+73+ %). I went through the existing RESP questions, but given the current volatility and market uncertainty, I thought I would ask for your current favourites, given the foregoing. I certainly like many of the options given in previous questions, but I feel that the environment is slightly different now than it was several months ago.
As always, thanks so much for the awesome service!!!!
Cheers,
Mike
