Q: Which one would you prefer for a 5 year or longer hold?

Q: Could you give me your recommendations for the 10 best US medium or large cap companies that pay small or no dividends?

Q: Hi 5i,
What are your current thoughts on continuing to hold onto ILMN given the current situation with Grail and activist investor involvement?

If I were to sell what would you recommend in the U.S. Healthcare Sector?
I currently own ABBV, IHI, TMO and WELL.

Thank you!!

Q: Hi 5i,

For Guardant Health (GH) would you recommend holding or selling at this time?

If selling is your recommendation please provide 5 US healthcare stocks that have good prospects in the near to long term.

Thank you.

Q: hi, portfolio analytics says I am underweight basic materials, consumer defensive, healthcare and industrials. can you provide a few Canadian and US equities in each category, that you would consider for medium to long term investment.
cheers, chris ( take as many credits as you need ).
further, I am overweight in utilities ( 18.6% of total holdings ) and financials ( 25.5 %). do you recommend trimming these 2 sectors? and in financials I own BN and BAM ( which I would suspect actually have cross-over with other sectors? )??
cheers, chris

Q: Since the healthcare sector in Canada is quite limited, I would like to explore the option of purchasing 100% US healthcare stocks to better represent this sector. I would greatly appreciate it if you could suggest six stocks that I should consider. Thank you in advance.

Q: What stocks would you suggest for a TFSA of about $70k for a 30 y.o. with a 10-15 year time frame?
Thank you.

Q: I have owned ENB for 6 years / it continues to disappoint. Russ Healy was on BNN saying net overall asset value continues to drop in the last 5 year's and i agree with him as my performance is negative (down 6% in the last 5 years, (this is excluding the dividend . Kindly explain how you continue to recommend this stock as it clearly is a loser in value the dividend is its only advantage... would TRP not be a better risk return or even Fortis / one of the pipes for that matter Thanks for your help with this . Lastly what is your top 3 picks in the health care sector

Q: What US Healthcare stock or ETF would you recommend to replace ABBV?

Q: Apart from Big Tech, are there any names (in and out of the tech sector) that 'should' be able to capitalize on the rise of AI in the near to medium term?

Q: Hello, with the current inflation scene, economy and interest rates, expectations of a pause by Federal Reserve and possibility of a soft landing, what sectors will be your favorites to invest/overweight today with a 5-10 years horizon ? And, in these sectors, what will be your best 3 picks, based on current valuation and future growth, in order, with suggested price levels to buy/add ?

Thank You

Q: I currently have a portfolio with these six holdings. What would be your current top 5-10 Cdn and/or US buys to diversify the portfolio and put a large cash balance to work for a 5-10 year time horizon with total return as the primary objective

Q: Further to my earlier question regarding covered calls, can you please suggest some higher volatility US names that would be suitable. Your 2015 CMS article advises the use of companies with no debt and excess cash that are more volatile than the market. I would imagine this points mostly to mega cap tech names, but some diversity in the list would be appreciated. Thank-you.

Q: Peter,

You recently mentioned recently the way to play AI was through U.S. Mega cap companies. Which ones in particular were you referring to ? Are there any ETF's worth reviewing?

Thank you

Paul

Q: Which would be your choice to initiate a new position. $ISRG or $SYK?

Q: I have been slowly accumulating ISRG. It has just gone above its 52 week high. Considering another small purchase based on hopefully continued momentum. Is it still a good long term plan or time to pause and wait for a pull back and better valuation? Thanks

Mike

Q: i have the three health care stocks. i want to reduceto only .two
Which i the one i eed to let go

Q: I have been fortunate to own the above names, some for not as long as I wish I did. When you look at their 10 year charts they are impressive. Can I ask you to list a few more Canadian and perhaps several U.S. stocks that maybe also pay a small dividend but that you consider must own names for long term growth? (I do own BN as well). Thank you as always.

Q: Hi Team,
I own some Cenovus stock. Today's quarterly results were not great, and oil price is sliding along with the share price. I am debating whether I should keep holding this name. I don't really care if I have oil exposure on not, I am ultimately seeking the best long term growth I can achieve regardless of sector. This being said is there any stand out buy's that you would rather own today compared with continuing to hold CVE? I am looking mostly at Canadian names, or US names that CIBC has traded on the neo (Canadian hedged). Or...is this a bad time to sell oil names with the recent weakness in oil price ( if you believe oil price will stage a recovery here shortly). Your suggestions are appreciated. Thanks

Shane.

Q: At what share price would you consider buying ISRG?

Thank you,

Mike
