Q: You had previously given the following criteria to judge momentum stocks: "For momentum we like a rising stock price with increasing volume, positive earnings surprises, accelerating earnings, analysts' upgrades and target prices. "

Would I be correct in assuming that in the current markets, we need to think more like value investors, however, than momentum investors? If my observation is correct how does one then analyze value stocks?

Appreciate your insight.

Q: I realize that in a recovery as you’ve noted, individual stocks will do better than ETF’s. If I’m looking for growth over a three to five year time frame would you suggest buying both SMU and XLK Or a list of individual stocks that could include MSFT JPM V WMT INTC ? I suppose a combination of the two options is also possible. This is for US exposure and it’ll be in my TFSA account which is presently sitting in cash. I believe you’d also suggest buying back in gradually. Thoughts. Thnks

Q: I have read that investing in AMD seasonally ,from October to April generally results in great returns . I own NVDA which has finally come back to my purchase price due to the Trump/China war. The best performing names are semis that I haven’t heard of . Are Semiconductors best as investments or swing trades ? Do you feel that AMD, INTC will perform better than NVDA .

Q: With the world feeling a little uneasy about a pending recession, I want to keep only holdings that will weather a downturn. I'm not trying to time the market, and want to hold stocks, that while they may dip, have good balance sheets, good management, and will likely see a recovery. Others I will sell and hold the cash. Above are my current holdings. Do you see any that may be susceptible to excessive weakness in a recession and would therefore meet my sell criterion? Thanks,
Kim

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: Good Morning 5i,

Just wondering if these two stocks are still a hold or should be replaced?
Intel seems to be having problems with its 10mm process, insider trading and competition from Nvidia and AMD. As for Cisco a report last week claiming that Amazon Web Services plans to start selling network switches to other businesses and other major networking companies could impact Cisco down the road. Should we anticipate that though times are ahead for this network giant?

Thx
