Q: In a broadly diversified portfolio, for a risk tolerant investor, how would you rate these stocks on a 1 - 10 scale, with a "10" meaning for sure you want this stock in your portfolio, and a "1" being you absolutely do not want this stock in your portfolio. Long term time horizon, looking for growth. AT, CTS, DCBO, DOC, DND, NVEI, TIXT, WELL, WISH.

Q: Dear 5i
Is the projected earnings growth for these three stocks high enough to be worth investing in ? CTS hasn`t done much in the past year but looks encouraging for 2021 . Qcom seems to have momentum and is likely a good 5G play . BB has developed some business relationships with other companies that should drive growth . Would you invest in any of these at this time ?
Thanks

Q: I can only afford to purchase one of these 2 stocks. I realize that they are completely different businesses, but in your opinion which one of these 2 stocks has the better outlook for the next 2-5 years. I hear that the PYR stocks is set to open shortly on the Nasdaq but not sure if that would improve it's outlook. Tnx much for all the great work.

Q: In my TSFA have equal weightings of PHO, REAL, WELL and XBC. Have additional funds to invest and was thinking of following AT, CTS, KRR, MCR, NVEI, or QST. You have suggested ATZ, GSY, or KXS which own most elsewhere to was looking to something new. How would you rank these stocks and would you have any better suggestions?

Q: There are a lot of small to medium sized Canadian technology companies, some of them fairly new to the stock market, that have seen very good stock price appreciation in the last year or two. Many/most of these companies are not profitable, and obviously this is a fairly speculative segment of the market. Today, I heard Darren Sissons talking about JDS Uniphase which went from $2 to $1,000 and back to $2 in the tech bubble 21 years ago. I'm wondering about how many of these small to medium sized Canadian tech companies might suffer a similar fate, and how many will succeed. Of the following list of stocks, what would be your estimate for the % of them that will succeed 5 - 10 years down the road at becoming long term successful businesses, with strong profits and a substantially higher stock price than now, and what % will fall by the wayside, failing to become good profitable businesses, and seeing their stock price drop off substantially. There are no doubt others that could be included in this list, but these are the ones I have picked out. Not asking which ones will succeed, just trying to get an idea of general potential for success/failure for this type of company/stock. ADCO, AT, CTS, DCBO, DND, KSI, LSPD, MVP, NVEI, PHO, QUIS, STC, WISH.

Q: First of all, thanks for the service you provide. I have found it extremely useful since becoming a member. Second, I apologize for the number of stocks covered in the question. If it is too many, please do not respond / post.
Within the last 12 months, I have purchased the above stocks strictly for growth or as momentum plays.
I would like to know which ones you would sell, either because their momentum has likely peaked, or because their share price growth prospects are poor. Please deduct as many credits as required. Thanks

Q: Of the above stocks which would you feel is the best to add to our TFSA and why? Could you also rank them in order best first, in case I decide to add 2.

Second related question: LSPD, CTS, and DCBO are in a non registered account They could be moved over to the TFSA but am reluctant to do so because l have a capital gain on them, 200%, 60%, and 60%. LSPD would be a partial move due to its greater value.
Thanks for all your guidance and suggestions in the Q and A. The 3 above profits are a result of 5i.

Happy New Year to all.
John

Q: 2 QUESTIONS.
CTS has been a great investment (take a bow here 5i) and is now free money for me as I sold half when it doubled. At the current price it's almost doubled again. What is your read of it's current momentum, can it be maintained ? Sell or hold ?

PHO is finally back to my buying price, same question ?
John.
