Investment Q&A

Q: I am interested in investing in companies that are leaders in developing AI. So far I have identified GOOG, MSFT, NVDA, and AMD. Do you agree with this list and are you able to add to it? I have seen AMZN, AAPL, IBM and META with regard to AI, but are they simply users of AI rather than developers?
Thank you.

Q: Hi Guys,

In my portfolio, here our my top holdings, Csu 8.3%, Wsp 7.6%, Nvda 6.9%, Cost 6.8% and Tri 6.4% .

Within a "balance" portfolio, please provide for each stock the % you would hold for before trimming.

thanks,

Jim

Q: Hi Peter,
I have over 6 figures to invest for 3 or more years for a Canadian holding company and am looking for suggestions to invest in each of the sectors, in a combination of ETFs and stocks. I would like to be more tax efficient where most of the returns would be in capital gains (total returns are mostly in the growth of the stocks, less in dividends). Investments can be in any geographic areas. In terms of risk level, I am comfortable with your balance portfolio approach, where it has some elements of growth.

One example I have, closer to income than growth, is HXH-T. It is a dividend ETF, low MER cost, with beta of < 1, pretty risk adverse. The price of the stocks is the index it tracks plus dividends.

Thank you,
Roger

Q: Given the current economic climate and potential future trends, which industries or sectors do you believe are well-positioned for long-term growth in the stock market, and what specific Canadian and US companies within those industries or sectors do you believe have strong fundamentals and potential for long-term momentum?

Thank you!

Derek.

Q: So after listening to Josh Brown interview Ric Edelman this ETF was discussed and seems timely. Would appreciate your views on Mr Edelman who sounds plugged in to what the future may deliver (he does however predict the downfall of Alphabet which isn't the base case of many - you included). That aside wondering about this ETF and your current opinion on whether it's buyable. Given the possibilities of AI, robotics, potential developments in medical science and treatment - all things that may fascinate but about which many of us have very limited understanding or vision about - might you characterize this holding in an appropriate portion as a smart piece of an overall portfolio that provides investors with exposure to future areas of potentially exponential growth - and perhaps your take on this ETF vs the ARK ETFs re valuation, risk and holdings comparisons - appreciate your viewpoint.

Q: NVDA has a really good run lately. Is it too late to buy some for a medium to long-term hold?

Q: I currently hold MSFT, NVDA, AMZN, and GOOG. All are at a 5% weight, except for AMZN, which is at 3%. I have an additional 2% to invest. Would you suggest topping up AMZN to 5%...or purchasing another tech stock with the additional funds? If the latter, would you please provide three stocks ranked by both risk and potential profit...and explain why you have selected each? Thank you.

Q: I currently own DSG,NVDA,SYZ,TOI AND TIXT. I am thinking of adding DCBO and wonder if there is is any overlap with the tech stocks that I already own or would be ok to add to this one as well?

Thanks

Q: RESP for 2 year old, with current year contribution to deploy ($3,075). Considering selling SHOP (8% weight) and NVDA(15% weight) and adding equally position in BN and AMZ CDR. Objective to diversify portfolio and add some growth potential. Thoughts on this plan, or alternative suggestions?

Q: What would be your recommendations for public traded companies that make robots for restaurants? Thanks

Q: I have some cash to deploy in various accounts. What do you suggest for income (divvy) in a cash account? to be held 3-5 years?
For capital gains to be held 2-3 years?
longterm (10-20 years) in a tax sheltered account?
Looking mostly for Canadian stocks but also a couple of US ones (but not for income)
Please take as many credits as fair. TIA

Q: Its pretty obvious that AI is going to be a big investment thesis this year and likely for a number of years. It looks like it will be very disruptive, which will create investment opportunities. With that will come hype and promotion of low quality companies that will get propped up in the wave of AI. Like crypto, NFT's, etc etc I think AI will probably be the next craze, and a lot of money will be made and lost. But so far the only recommendations I'm reading about are mega caps like Nvidia, Apple, GOOG which can do well but they aren't going to be multibaggers. Do you have any insight into smaller companies that may benefit most from this AI boom? Looking for game changing smaller companies that have the best chance at multibagger gains? Thx

Q: Good Afternoon

I currently hold TEAM(even), VEEVE(-10%) TRADEDESK(-10%),CROWDSTRIKE (-35%) and UNITY(-75%). Each of these positions make up less than 2% of my portfolio. Unfortunately there are no tax losses applicable. If you were to consolidate which ones would you keep or in turn what would you buy as a replacement

Thank you

Q: I hold APPS in a USD portion of my TFSA (unfortuneatly) and am thinking to cut my losses. Do you think there would be better candidates that APPS could be swapped for at this time?

Q: You have generally been positive on QCOM but the share price seems to be range bound. Do you see prospects for the price to move? Any catalyst in sight? I own it as well as Nvidia; is there much duplication there? I am considering switching out of QCOM into CRM; can you please comment on this idea. Many thanks for your excellent service.

Q: I own both of these in small positions. I want to sell one and add to the other. Long term hold. Which would you recommend to keep.

Q: Now we know we are near the end of J Powell's hikes in Interest Rates as Inflation is dropping should I start building my equity Holdings?

If so can you give me three names in Canada & USA Thanks a lot RAK

Q: Can I get your 3 or 4 picks for Ai stocks or ETF,s

Q: For approximately 10 month of the last year (March 22 to Jan 23) AMD and NVDA stock prices acted similarly but in Feb 23 ADM stock price leveled off and then dropped while NVDA continued to climb. Was there any specific circumstance that caused this divergence? At this time what entry price for each of these stocks would you suggest. Thanks
Mike

Q: If I sold my remaining shares in lightspeed I would like to invest the money in a higher quality company. Could you provide a few names that would fit this description as well as growth upside especially in a market turn-around. Any sectors are fine.
