Investment Q&A

Q: Hello Team,
Could I have three robotic names(Canadian and US, ETFs) you recommend please.
Many thanks!

Q: Your thoughts please on selling CLS inside aTfsa and buying the much cheaper Micron and Sandisk Thx

Q: Hi Team,
Can I have your take on NOW earnings? Beat on all metrics it seems like, yet the stock nose dives. CNBC has a headline saying "bear market is in for software stocks". What is a person to do now when I am stuck with NOW, and all the CSU family? Can I expect CSU, LMN, TOI to sell off a bunch more on earnings when they report like NOW is doing today even though they beat? I am finding it hard to decide whether to just Hold, buy more, or Sell? Usually selling is not a good long term idea in a proven quality name, but maybe this is different this time? However selling a sector that is being oversold might be a bad idea if I am expecting to invest it in momentum names at their "highs" (such as MU) that might roll over at any time...that would be a bad scenerio. Today is an awful day. My portfolio has peaked last October and still has not came back since and continues to fall. Losing confidence in holdings I thought were all quality names..

Thanks for any input you may have,

Shane.

Q: Hi 5i team, Thanks for the amazing work you do !
I have an 18 and 20 year old. Would like your recommendations for sticks to invest in for Growth. They invested in SBET last year but SBET went down drastically. Would you recommending selling, holding SBET? They both have 7K to invest in their TFSa’s . What stocks and proportion do you suggest? Thank you, please as many credits as needed.

Q: Hi,

In October ’24 I asked 5i to identify:

A) ~10 favourite stocks drawn from its 3 model portfolios
B) ~6 highest conviction US picks.

The answer was:

A) From portfolios: CSU, TRI, TFII, WSP, BAM, BN, GLXY, CLS, SHOP, DSG

B) US: NVDA, ISRG, BKNG, LLY, BRK.B, GOOG

If asked the same question today, what would the 5i response be?
( Goal is best total return, long term )

Thank you.

Q: I only hold MSFT for technology sector. What 2or 3 more technology stock would you recommend for a RRSP which will be converted into a RRIF in 5 years?

Thanks

Q: I have been watching Micron Technology, it has seen a lot of positive gains, is it too late to bye?
I would like to add a position in TFSA or my RRIF your thoughts and guidance are appreciated.

Q: Hello 5i
How would you rank the following "memory" companies for growth over the next 3'ish years? Which would be your two favorites?
Thank you
Dave

Q: RKNG This brand new Defiance ETF holds some high growth names. Could you examine the current holdings and provide your view on the potential here. Ms Jablonski has some vision so could this be a reasonable high risk small piece of one's portfolio in your view.

Q: SMHX doesn't come up in your data base. What are your thoughts on it VS the SMH for more focused semi design exposure? How do they compare?

thx, M

Q: Hello Team 5i & Everyone,

With regard to the A.I. theme: If you had to pick 9 American stocks to watch that have been already running since 2023 because of A.I., which stocks would they be?

Nividia & Microsoft seem obvious. Maybe VST, AVGO… Gemini provided a list, but I’d like to know what you think please.

I find that the MAGS etf is a simple way to track the big tech stocks, but I’m not sure if the SMH etf would be too specific to track the A.I. stocks/theme?

Thank you for your help!

Sandra

Q: Hi 5i Guys, Could you please rank the noted stocks in order of your expected growth in the next 3 + years? Thank you!
Happy New Year!

Q: I want to have my TFSA grow bigger. Of the stocks listed, in what order would you add them to the TFSA? How long of a hold do you suggest, and what are target prices you'd be comfortable with? Is it better to wait for a pullback? Take as my question deductions as needed.

Q: I'm looking to start experimenting in 2026 with selling covered calls and cash secured puts (using a smaller % of my overall portfolio). Does 5i have any favourite tickers for this type of activity?

Thanks!

Q: With the trillions of dollars being invested in the U.S. in 2026, what would be 5 companies that would benefit the most from that.

Q: Analysis of results - market seems to love it - has not been a favored stock for you - time to add here?

Q: Could you tell me which 5 of these TFSA companies you would add money to first in a correction. Could you also give me two, not in this list that you consider better or just as good than these names, for a tfsa.
Thanks for all you do. Gilles

Q: Good AM. Would you please rank your preference (most to least) for long-term (5-10 yrs) capital appreciation of the 3 stocks indicated?

Q: I recently sold Nvidia in my tfsa. I sold a call option on it and it was pretty close to the strike price, I let it get called away, since I am overweight Nvidia. Now that it is down I am tempted to buy it again. I can’t let myself forget the overweight aspect, though. Do you have another suggestion that I could replace it with? I want something nearly as good that I can sell options on, thus no or a small dividend. Sector doesn’t matter. I am also full weight on Shopify and Google. I am also open to smaller stocks that could show growth and are relatively safe—celestica and Nebius?
Thanks

Q: The latest Q results were excellent and the share price in after hours went into the $130's, yet it has drifted down to the $113 range or almost 15% since late June. How would you rate this stock, do you think it deserves more patience? Thank you. John
