Investment Q&A

Q: Hi 5i team,

I have a growth and long term outlook and looking to trim some losers and replace with some winners. Of the following stocks, do you feel any need to hold for the long term? Also, what are some US/CAD replacements you would recommend and can you rank from highest to lowest based on overall strength?

Thanks 5i team.

Q: What order would you sell these.First to last.Thanks.

Q: Could you please comment on VEEV and ROKU, should I be concerned about holding on to these?

Q: I’m significantly underwater on these stocks. Can you please advise which ones you’d hold, and which ones you’d sell? Can you please also give 5 growth stocks in Canada and 5 in the US that you are high on right now in place of the above?

Q: Hello

Could you comment on ROKU earnings?
Many thanks.

Q: It looks like I will need to sell a position or two to pay the tax man. Please rank the companies listed. Thank your

Q: Please suggest a buy, hold or sell on the following based on the idea that the markets may not yet have found bottom, and these are likely to sink lower in price before a markets turn around: TSU, NVDA, ROKU, TOI, NVEE, CRWD. Thanks!

Q: Any stocks being unfairly punished today because of SVB fallout that look interesting to you?
Thanks

Q: Can you please comment on the breaking news after hours of the Roku cash deposits at SVB, particularly those that may be uninsured and what this means for Roku going forward. Please provide any updated opinion on Roku as a result of this developing story.

Q: Being a one time owner of SVB some time ago, now I read I am involved with them again as ROKU dropped from 70ish to 50ish over the last few days. I find out that is their bank. I imagine there are a few other tech stocks I have that bank with them. Are we in a lot of trouble for the next while? Your thoughts are appreciated.

Q: Hi, The Economist mentions in a recent article that ROKU reported that it held $487 million at SVB in a Mar 10th regulatory filing. I've sort of guessed that might be about 25% of ROKU's cash, based on number of outstanding shares and cash held per share listed on Finviz.com. Would that be a fair assumption? If so, what effect do you see this having on ROKU's share prices in the next while? I'm expecting to see them drop once the news gets out, but do not know how this might affect their overall business fundamentally or longer term. Can they withstand such a hit, if it comes down to a write off? I've listed this question as private, thinking I don't wish to add to market fears - but if you feel it would serve the 5i community best as a public question, feel free to open it up.
With continued appreciation for your sage advice, I look forward to your thoughts on this.

Q: I have small positions in the above noted companies held in my TFSA. They are all underwater and so there is no tax advantage to selling these losers. I would like to sell some or all of them and either to one or more of them or move on to some small techs that have more prospects. Can you let me know which of these you would sell hold or add to. Thanks for your ongoing great advise.

Q: Hi 5i Team,

I have a handful of smaller position stocks that have not done well and that I believe I should high grade. Which ones you would recommend moving on from?

Thanks

Q: Hello,

I have small positions in these 6 stocks, all in the red - MTCH, ROKU, GNRC are in registered accounts, RBLX, UPST, ZM in non-registered. I don't find it easy to sell any stocks but in the spirit of 'pulling weeds', can I get your opinion on which of these, if any, you would sell. Any that might be worth adding to at their current valuation?

Thank you for your insights, Doris

Q: Comments on Roku earnings? Up 12% before earnings today and then another 10% post-earnings after hours. Does that not look like there was a leak before the announcement? Thanks.

Q: I am down more than 50% on CRWD.US, ROKU.US, and GH.US in my RRIF and should have been paying more attention as they kept getting lower.

Is there any hope for a distinct short term (1 year) revival, or would a better plan be to sell all/any of them and invest in something with momentum.

Suggestions are welcome.

Q: I was interrupted during my buy of ROKU last Thursday when it was below $50 and when I next looked it was $56! Ouch. I see it has earnings on Feb 15. I know you recommend buying for long term and not waiting for earnings, but I feel like it could go either way here, and a 10% rise this week is significant - do you have a recommendation regarding buying before or after in this case? Thanks!

Q: Hello,

Are there any US or Canadian companies you see as attractive opportunities for medium to short-term option plays? Short-term being less than a year (3-6 months, medium-term being 1-2 years. I understand these short-term price changes can really be a toss-up, but am cautiously optimistic about the market pricing in current fears and moving upwards over the next year.

Also, am wondering if this specifically would be attractive to you: GOOGL $1.81 @ 110 Strike April 21 Expiration

Q: Hi 5iresearch
I am in a loss position with the above stocks. They represent a very small size of my portfolio. Which ones would have a good chance for recovery in the next 12 months? I am trying to determine which ones I should sell to allocate to other shares with better chances. You can give %s for their recovery in the next 12 months.
Thank you

Q: Hello,

I currently hold the above stocks in my RRSP and have some $ to add. Given current valuations and future growth, could you please rank how you would add new money? Fairly aggressive investor with long time frame. Thank you,
