Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I've been active in DIY investing for 7 years. Have chosen only CDN listed stocks and, with 5i's help, have been reasonably satisfied with returns over that period. However, despite my stubborn resistance to the US, I cannot continue to ignore that market. So I have 5 forced-choice questions for you. I will invest in 5 of the 11 listed. I'd like your opinion about which one in each group to invest. These are LT holds (5+ years). I'm not expecting a detailed rationale, but would appreciate knowing if your preferences are strong. Or not. Thanks!
GOOG vs. AMZN
HD vs. LOW
AMD vs. NVDA
AAPL vs. MSFT
AYX vs. TTD vs. TEAM

Q: Hi Peter and Ryan,
Lately I contributed some cash into my RRSP. I owns many Canadian companies as you have in your demo portfolios. I also have US shares of QCOM, Google, Twitter, AYX, SQ. I am thinking of adding 2-3 of US stocks in my list above. What will you recommend? Or do you have other stocks that have good growth potentials in the long term?
Thank you,
Yiwen

Q: 5i,
Question: Which of these three companies are preferred going forward for 2019? Should we hold all?
5I RESEARCH ANSWER:
We think GOOG looks best here, though we will give credit to MSFT for adjusting well to technology changes (the cloud).
FB we think will be a longer recovery, and we don't think is a must-own. We would be fine holding the other two.
DO you still feel the same ?
Thanks

Q: Hi 5I team.

Other than XUS (15%) I really do not have much exposure to US Stocks. Would you please recommend a few US stocks or Sector based ETFs to invest about 10% of new cash. I have a few options based on Mad Money and Market Call. Any preferences of the stocks I've listed or other ETF suggestions would be helpful. My horizon is for 5+ years.

Thanks

Q: I have held pho for about a year and thinking of selling pho and buying nvda as they are down the same thus increasing the quality of my semi conductor exposure. Also I have made a lot of money from csu and kxs and have sold them and bought a small exposure to msft for the same reason. Does this make sense to you....thanks for the great service
