Q: Good morning team 5i
All of these stocks are down. Setting aside sector weights and realizing I am asking for a "crystal ball" answer, which of the above do you think has the quickest (6 months to a year) upside? I have a bit of cash for this specific exercise. Much thanks as usual for all you do!

Q: Hi Team,

I am looking to do a covered call strategy on growth stocks you like that have reasonably liquid options markets and high implied vol. What are your five favourite "long-term hold" CAD and USD stocks where such a strategy could be implemented?

Was looking at AYX as an example where you can create some interesting downside protection scenarios selling 1yr calls at strikes approximately 10% higher than current price that still give you a 20-35% total return if the stock rips higher through your strike.

Thanks

Q: Concerning the 4 stocks that I own above - are they all cut from the same mold? It seems these and others in the same category are all down between 20 and 30% in the last 3 months according to the information Globe Investor supplies me. Is this the cause of investors panicking or is it something else? I watch BNN all the time and have heard things such as the S&P will be down another 10% within the next 6 months. Thank you. Dennis

Q: I have very recently equally invested in MHK, KEYS, PAYC and ULTA. Do you these companies offer better safety combined with potential then investing in AYX, TEAM, CRWD and DOCU.

Q: Hi there,

Which of these stocks would you be adding to or starting a position in and why? All have pulled back to some extent so my question is which have the most upside assuming I can handle volatility? I am okay with a response suggesting to buy all 5 if you can please explain why each has come down too much and has room to go up. Deduct as you see fit and thanks!

Q: Hi !
Being overweight in tech (holding those above roughly in equal amounts), could you indicate, in order, which one you would let go to create some cash ? I also hold the following ETFs: igv, vgt, iusg which may create some duplication.
Thanks as always,
Jacques, Île-des-Soeurs

Q: AYX, OKTA, TEAM, TTD, TWLO, VEEV

It's clear that software stocks are taking a heavy beating right now. Are there any concerns for recovery and continued growth at the companies above? What sort of expectations might you have for the above stocks down the road at the 1-year, 3-year and 5-year marks?

Q: Hi Peter

Sorry to come back on this issue of yestersay's AYX share price drop, but I found the stmnt below on TD's newswire. Could you please comment on the stmnt? If the ceo had sold the rest of his shares he would of gained > $5M. The stock lost > $2B yesterday. I don't understand the transaction. Is this a common situation and if so, I wonder why the stock fell so far.
Many thanks for your insights.

"Alteryx (AYX) slid 15.5%. A regulatory filing showed company president and chief revenue officer Robert Jones sold 1,599 of the data analytics company's common shares at $146.53 apiece after exercising an equal number of recently vested restricted stock units at $27.09 each. Jones pocketed a $190,985 profit from the transactions and continues to directly own 42,150 Alteryx shares."

Q: Hello, could I have your thoughts on the recent PAYS revenue guidance (didn't seem bad) and stock drop under $10 now.

Also just a thank you as I do read lots of negative comments on the board and people tend to cherry pick one big loss (TSGI, COV for recent ones). Anyways I wanted to add that you have liked/loved some awesome stocks that haven't gotten attention because they aren't Canadian or in your portfolio. Examples - AYX and TEAM, massive gains since these stocks were first in your Q&A and you had positive comments on questions.
