Q: Hi 5i!
Would you mind giving a bit of comparitive information between these 2 companies? And would you prefer one over the other (if so, why) or invest equally for a bit of diversification within the sector? Are there others in the sector that you would recommend?
Thanks!

Q: Do you think it is worth continuing to patiently hold NVTA in my RSP or is it time to sell ? Of course with no tax loss available for an RSP.

I thought the NVTA Feb report and guidance was encouraging.

Also, do you see NVTA moving to profits in the next couple of years, or at least convincing investors that growth is sufficient to entice 'growth investors' while waiting for eventual profits.

Thanks!

Q: What is your view on QYLD as a place to stash cash in the current market? Looking at the chart, although its unit value has dropped since inception, it seems to have held its value on a total return basis - would you agree? Any better recommendation?

Q: I remember when GUD went public you were in love with it, well maybe not the right choice of words. We know now what happened since. With PLTR, same kind of love at first, as per your current answers not so much. I worry this may become another GUD story. Do you like Peter Theil, and do you think he remains a good asset for PLTR. He is controversial, so that makes we worry. Your thoughts please .

Q: I have now smallish positions in these ETFs held in registered accounts. ARKG at a 40% profit ARKW at a 60% loss and ARKK at a 64% loss. Do you see these recovering in the next few months or would you sell now and look elsewhere?
Please deduct credits as required.
Many thanks.

Q: I am thinking of adding TXF to my portfolio, however, am not sure which account would be appropriate. Considering that most of the Tech. companies in this ETF are U.S., would that not attract a 15% withholding tax. If this is the case, then would a registered account be preferable to a TFSA.

Thanks for the great service

David

Q: Hi 5i,

Can you help me understand how TSU is not an absolute tabling pounding buy here. They have been growing the top line at a 40% clip. I believe the ROE is 18 or 19%. They have a long growth run way. Yes they missed last earnings due to two things outside of their control (surety losses impacting .08 and hurricane .02). If those one time items did not occur they would have beat consensus.

They have a great track record of execution and the BAM pedigree. Please let me know if you disagree. Also, please let me know in your opinion when the stock is a) cheap and b) table pounding buy.

Thank you.

Q: Hello,

After GOOG does their split - do you think the demand/trading volume for the CDR will dry up?

And in a worst case scenario that likely will never happen - if the CDR winds up and liquidates....would the holders get cash returned or would they receive proportional equivalent of US listed GOOG?

thank you and have a great weekend.

Q: Hi Folks,
just wondering if ATVI would be good to buy at this price. I understand that MSFT is offering $95 to buy them with the deal closing in 2023. Do you see the potential for the Feds to nix the deal? A $15 dollar premium until the deal goes through looks pretty good right now ? Your opinion is greatly appreciated.
