Investment Q&A

Q: Hi folks,
I am looking to add 3 of CSU, AAPL, MSFT, GOOGL or VISA for some growth to my otherwise conservative RRSP portfolio. May I have your top 3 recommendations at this time that could add some "zip" to my RRSP account. Looking at a 10 year time frame.
Thanks,

Q: What are your 2 favorite and well priced large cap US stocks that will benefit from the AI movement? Thank you

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

Q: Will partially liquidate Dis (at a loss) balance hold for recovery. Am debating deploying to one or two of the above. For a 3 to 5 yr hold (registered acct), with capital appreciation/total return in mind, which is favoured?

Q: Hi Peter and company,

What would be the percent weight range holding the “magnificent 7” in a portfolio for a growth investor? Are there any names you would substitute? Expand to 10?

Thanks for the great service,
Angelo

Q: Hi 5i,
I plan on purchasing these 4 companies to cover off my exposure to the US markets.

What is your opinion of this portfolio? Any other addition?

Weighting in the Portfolio is a consideration, so I only have 4 positions.

Is now a good time to start accumulating, and it what order?

Thanks for the opinion.
John

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: Would you consider these as early winners as AI "picks and shovels", quite apart from SMCI which has had a huge run-up?
What are your views on other hardware for cloud benefitting from AI - such as, IBM DELL HPE NET and CSCO. Bottom line - which are buyable today or could you suggest buy prices?

Q: I have held MSFT for a long time and recently sold a covered call - which is now making me nervous. How much more upside do you see for MSFT in, say the next year or so?? Thanks Jim

Q: I have held disney now for 2 and half years and i have been in the red since can you please advice me if i sell it what would be a good replacement for it in my rrsp. And the same goes for cvs it has put me in the red as well is there a better replacement for this that pay a good yield as well. Thank you for all the support

Q: Since AI become news I have been following with interest, however a little reluctant to put my feet into the water, as I am thinking this could be another bubble.
I have reviewed all question on AI companies, and wonder if 5i is going to consider an AI stock for the growth portfolio.
I did own Microsoft, and Apple however sold when the market crashed 2 years ago..
I look forward to reviewing your answer.
Thanks
Rick

Q: Hello 5i: SCHG vs VONG
the symbols above don't come up. Your take on these ETFs please, and which one would you have as the best rick/reward? Present valuations, in my opinion, very stretched. Your take?
thanks

Q: I own Disney which has shown not to be a good investment. My plan is to sell it at a loss. Would you please recommend a few companies in USA which would give me upside.

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: I know that 5i has huge respect for a company like CSU. What would be an equivalent stock in the US markets?

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: Re CGI; do you know the reason for the very large spike in volume on May 31 and if it has significance? I saw the recent question regarding Helsinki University. There was subsequent news regarding the company successfully accessing Azure on behalf of the US Marine Corps. These sound very positive.
Thanks for your insight.

Q: I hold UNITY and APPS , now less than 1% and at a substantial loss as part of a US $ registered account tilted to growth and, intentionally, heavy in tech. In addition to the above two, it has the following holdings, with % shown of TOTAL (U.S. & Cdn) portfolio, followed by % of profit/loss, Our Canadian portfolio is balanced and much larger.

META .75% (+21%) , TEAM 1.9% (0%), CRWD 2.7% (-20%),
QCOM 3.7% (+45%), MSFT 3.8%(+116%), GOOG 4.5%(+6%), and NVDA 8.8% (+200%).

I am looking at selling U and APPS and perhaps TEAM (?) , increasing META to about 1.5 and looking for something new. Maybe SMCI - but after the parabolic increase in the last month maybe that needs to be on a pullback. Anything about this that you would do differently., including alternatives to SMCI ?
Take as many question credits as needed - many thanks.

Q: I have a small position in MDB and I'm uncertain to add to or just hold. After reviewing past answers I wonder if your views have changed. Are you more positive? Analyst reviews from Scotia McCloud are so so. To my eyes, the technicals look good - actually better than its peers. Does MDB have an advantage in the market? Would you prefer another company competitor with more torque? Thanks..........Lionel
