Q: Would you kindly provide your ranking for these 3 companies for a 1 to 2 year hold from 2 perspectives, first with regard to growth with the "growthiest" first and second with regard to safety with the safest of the three listed first. Your view specifically on the Intel miss and whether you think it impairs the stock longer term or whether the miss is more of a shorter term impediment to the equity price. Thank you for your help.

Q: I would like your opinion on these tech stocks for my tfsa. tech stocks were suggested by you in my last question - "For some growth, one could add tech names (US or Canadian), if applicable. We note that less than five years is still considered relatively short-term, so we would keep things on the lower risk profile in general."
if u could rank them, or suggest better ones to research that would be great.

Q: Hi !

I invest mostly in growth stocks but with 28% of my portfolio in tech, I may be overloaded in this sector. My present holdings are: CSU (2.7%) PHO (2.5%) KXS (3.2%) SHOP (3.5%) ADBE (3.1%) FB (2.7%) GOOG (2.6%) MU (1.8%) NVDA (2.2%) SQ (3.%). If I were to reduce the number of holdings as well as my tech %, on which stocks would you suggest to concentrate, identifying those with most growth potential and those more risky ? Are there any other stocks better suited to my goal ? Or should I stay the course here ?
Thank you for your good attention,
JD

Q: I'd like to pick a US stock for my portfolio. I like NVDA, but do you feel it and MU at current prices are already overvalued and if so would you suggest something else.
Thanks!

Q: Hopefully, your research will recognise the first 3 NASDAQ listings. Based on the continuing manic disorder in the Land of the Free & the Home of the Brave I am planning on certain substantial changes in our US investments. The major tax changes certainly provide new opportunities & I would appreciate your evaluation & assessment of the 4 individual choices I am considering. Thank you.

Q: Hi,
I currently dont hold any tech or insurance companies. The rest of my portfolio is fairly diversified. With the recent tech pullback and also rumors of rate hikes where do you see as being a better long term investment? I like to think in terms of at least 3-5 years. All drips available will be used. Currently I have one full position worth of cash available. Am I better do you think to put it all into one or split between some? Do you see somewhere better to put the dollars to work?
Thanks

Q: Hi,

I have four questions.

1) How do you decide on what is the optimal level of EV/EBITDA and debt to equity ratio for different industries (such as high tech, consumer discretionary, financial, industrial, small growth companies)?

2) Can you please recommend some reading material on analyzing company fundamentals?

3) What is your opinion on Adobe Systems (ADBE)?

4) What is your opinion on Amphenol Corp (APH)?

Thank you,
Lai
