Investment Q&A

Q: I'm looking to increase international exposure inside a TFSA account focused on long term growth. Is there enough difference between these two to own both ? If only one, which one would you add?

thanks

Q: My total allocation in my portfolio is currently at 16%. However, it is inverse what the asset allocator recommend with nearly 4% in Cyclical and over 12% in Defensive. Would you recommend shifting some within Consumer? Do what extent does this matter since the boundary between both seems somewhat artificial? FYI - I own ABEV, BKGN, DOL, FDP, SAP all in my RRSP. If you recommend that I shift into Cons Cyclical, what would recommend as of today for my RRSP (US and CAN)?

Q: Hi gang,
I am looking into buying crcl. Is it any advantage to buy ccup? Any suggestions?
Thanks. Alnoor

Q: I have owned ERO and CS for a while and both have appreciated in value. At what weight would you start trimming if owned ?

Thanks

Q: Roughly a month ago, I finished building a small, but "full" position. (2% vs a blue chip 4-5%).

I know you are not a fan of averaging down, but with the "GSY-short report sympathy decline", would you make an exception here and add more to PRL?

If so...and trying to avoid "catching a falling knife", at what price would you add at? When I look at the technicals, to my amateur eyes it looks like $23-24 has some support. Be more patient and wait for that price to come?

Your thoughts?.....Steve

Q: What is your opinion on this ETF

Q: Hello 5i HOVR
Your assessment of New Horizon Aircraft please?
Thanks

Q: I'm currently down 35% on my BCE shares and am considering selling them to buy Propel Holdings stock for the long term. Do you think that would be a smart move? If you have better alternatives for my BCE position, I'm open to your advice in either the Canadian or U.S. markets

Q: Hi,
Is it possible that the 10% drop in WELL on Friday would be related to their announced presentation at the 2025 Cantech Investment Conference on Oct 9 in Toronto? Any info about this presentation from your sources? Too much Up & downs with this stock. It's not only the market. I'm loosing patience.
Thanks and good weekend.

Q: hi, are there some low cost globally diversified eft's you are comfortable with?
thankyou.

Q: My investment is down by about 25% and I am inclined to take a loss for tax purposes. When does the company next report? If it were you, would you wait for that before selling? Do you foresee any other catalyst that would change the fortunes for the share price in the next 30 days? Thank you for your excellent service.

Q: USAR Is it too late to jump into this ? Any others you can recommend? Thanks!

Q: I notice that my APPLE (CDR) shares are down about 3.5% today and the US listed APPLE shares are up about 1.6%.

What accounts for this disparity and does this get corrected in some way so that my APPLE shares trade and therefor the overall valuation is consistent on both sides of the border?

Q: With ATZ's heavy growth into the US demographics, do you think ATZ will ever has a US listing, similar to LULU's approach?

Q: Good Morning Team 5i & Everyone,

I’m looking through the holdings for REMX:US. Of the etf’s current holdings, these are the ones listed on the US market:

LAC
MP
ALB
SQM
IPX
LAR
SGML
TROX

Fundamentally, do any look good enough that you would consider holding them directly?

I’ve been watching NEO:CA and I realize that the sector has a bit of excitement in it at the moment, and if that changes they would likely take a hit.

In general I’m holding some REMX and will likely wait for an opportunity to add. The thesis ultimately is that when A.I. reaches the point where robots start getting built years from now, in theory that will require rare earth and strategic metals and minerals. But, we shall see.

Thank you,

Sandra

Q: Seems the US is on a rare earth buying spree. Could you give me some names to look at . I don't know of any production companies so I guess it would be exploration.

Q: Hi, you were generally positive in a past answer on $byrn. But cautious due to small market cap. They announced positive results again, with growth and profitability. Does this change your previous comments? It seems promising, especially due to all the unrest on the streets in USA - but I might be swayed by my perception.

Q: I'm looking to sell some (all) of my Roya Gold. Would it be better placed in FNV? Or would you have another suggestion? Thanks.

Q: To follow up on Larry's question (Oct. 9), is it a good time to initiate a position?

Q: Hello Peter
I have been a member since the early lunching of 5I and I have done very well thank you. I also managed my family portfolios with success. My approach was and still is 100% Stocks with a growth tilt and no Bonds.
Now 86 years old, I am starting to transfer gradually to my heirs the proceeds of my stock portfolio. My heirs a son and a daughter both professionals have no interest in managing a stock portfolio.
I am thinking of converting gradually my stocks and their portfolios to ETFs such as ZSP 30%, XIC 30%, VMO 15%, VIU 10% and QQC 15% with the intention of rebalancing once a year.
Is this approach and suggested portfolio viable for the next 5 to 10 years, please do not hesitate to suggest appropriate changes to achieve for the long term capital preservation, a reasonable return of 8% and a certain peace of mind with minimum effort.
I always valued your wisdom and advice and above all I would like to thank you for your help to manage my moneys with success.
