Q: Hi!

I believe 5i has correctly stated in the past that in a recovery the bigger, stronger names will bounce earlier and more powerfully than smaller and perhaps more speculative names. Companies like TTD and TEAM have either bounced or held up better than names like RUBI or YEXT which fits your comments. SHOP vs LSPD in Canada would be another example. My question is not about these names specifically but if you could please list 4-5 names in the USA space that are well capitalized (can survive) and undervalued (haven't bounced like you might have thought yet). I am not looking for value stocks but growth themed stocks that have been unfairly punished or neglected in the recovery.
Thanks so much!

Q: Hi Team,
I am holding TWLO, and down 12% on it as of today. It has been showing some strength lately with the other tech names, but perhaps not as much as some others. What do you think of this companies growth potential? I am wondering if I should hold it, or if you would recommend switching the holding into a different US tech growth stock that you are much more convinced of (was noticing ROKU or DOCU)? I currently already hold NOW, AYX, CRM, SQ,TTD,FB. Thanks for your advice.

Q: Hi Team,
I hold the following stocks in my TFSA: AYX, FB, LSPD, SQ, TTD. Lightspeed is by far my worst performer so far in this group (-50%). I was thinking of possibly "Doubling down" on lightspeed in order to lower my average price, and also with the thought being since its sold off the most in this group, that it may have the highest potential return in a time frame of say a couple yrs. But.. I hold no cash in this account for the most part, so I would have to trim one or 2 of these holdings in order to raise the cash required to buy more LSPD. I am a bit hesitant to do this as I am a firm believer in the other holdings as well. If you were to trim, which would it be from out of the list of stocks given, in order to buy more LSPD? Or would you consider doing this at all given the prospects of the other stocks in this list? Note that I would not have to trim alot from the other ones as LSPD is currently down so much that it wouldn't take too much to double down on it. I am using my TFSA for high growth, and not overly concerned with weightings as long as the holdings are of quality and high growth potential. Thanks for the advice.

Shane.

Q: Wanted to ask your thoughts on this name. Keep reading advertising will be impacted but longer term their model seems to hold weight. Being isolated, many hours is spent on various streaming platforms along with web surfing. Also, no one is really focused on the election but I suspect once covid19 has peaked and stabilized it will become a larger focus driving an up take for TTD.

Q: I own all of the above stocks in the 'growth' portion of a well balanced portfolio. I don't need to sell any and the volatility doesn't bother me. Are there any I should sell because their fundamentals have changed in this correction? Any I should add too?

Q: What are your growth favourite companies with no debt and/or strong balance sheets that have low PEG ratios in CAD and USD? I understand there is minimal earnings visibility going forward so best guess is appreciated using companies that you expect to survive and eventually thrive. Thanks

Q: Hi 5i Crew,
I have the funds to purchase a position in one of either NVDA, TEAM or TTD (in a fairly diversified portfolio). Considering the recent pullback and economic deterioration due to covid19, what is your take on these companies short and long term? Would it be prudent to jump in now with depressed valuations? Thanks in advance.
