Q: Role play. You're you giving yourself advice:
Assuming the market is going to puke all over itself today, what are you buying and how long are you waiting to pull the trigger on it?
Everything is long term hold.
Thanks

Q: Could you please recommend five moderately conservative stocks that you believe will prove to have been a sensible buy 5 to 10 years down the road.
Q: Hello 5!
Respecting how different these two are, if you could only buy one for a 5 year hold for growth with some stability in these turbulent times which would you prefer?
Thanks for all you do - it’s appreciated!

Q: Hi,
I have a Lump sum and I have close to an equal 25/25/25/25% split for these etfs/company. because i am in my low 40s i want to make sure i get my growth somewhat better in my younger years. Do you think this would be acceptable or should i be leaning more towards a xeqt/vfv split?

Q: I have a couple holdings that are giving me question for keeping.
I have a cost base of 20 on Sentinel and altho there was some positive stock movement a few months back the stock is currently showing little sign of moving higher. I know they are in Cyber Security. Is it worth holding and where would you suggest the funds could be better deployed if its a Sell?
In the case of SNN my cost is 24 but based on the longer term chart i'm not certain there is alot of confidence in the management when comparing to better performing Medical Device companies like Stryker. Would this be a Sell and redeployment of Cash into Intuitive Surgical?

Q: How involved is Magna with robotaxis produced by Waymo?

Q: In less than a year, Waymo has increased its weekly ride volume from 10,000 in August 2023 to more than 250,000 today. According to California Public Utilities Commission filings, the company's momentum has accelerated sharply, with March 2025 alone showing a 27% jump in paid rides after months of slower growth. Do you think it could become a big part of Google in the coming years ? They seems to have the lead compare to the competitors like tesla, uber ...

Q: I enjoy all the questions that pass through. I’m not into day trading but certainly add a couple swing trades in as a boost as well as selling calls.
With the question you answered about Canadian companies for day trading would you please provide a few US names that would fit your criteria.
Thank you.

Q: I noticed in a response to a recent question that you disclosed owning Microsoft but not Alphabet when the question referenced both companies. Over the years you have been very positive on Goog and on that basis I have built a fairly large position. I am therefore interested to know if in fact you don’t actually have any ownership in this company, and if so, your reasons. Thanks.
Q: Hi,
I like your your opinion on salesforces' earning? The earning itself look very decent, but why did it drop 5% today? And what do you think of its long-term outlook compare to others in its industry. is there a name you like better?

Q: Thanks partly to your good advice, I have held GOOG and MSFT for some years. they are now 17% and 28% of my account. I am a senior but fairly risk tolerant. Should I reduce either or both and if so what do you suggest as replacement? Thanks Jim
