Q: Hi 5i Team - Are there any Canadian companies in the semi-conductor space that would be of interest to you, including start-up companies, suppliers of materials, and any potential companies on the horizon.

I read an article called “The World Relies on One Chip Maker in Taiwan, Leaving Everyone Vulnerable” that appeared on the WSJ.
Apart from TDM, NVDA & INTEL, are there any others names in the industry that you could share or recommend?
Thanks,
Q: How would you characterize/rank TXN in the semi space? Is it diversified in its product offerings versus others and would you recommend it as an all-around buy or are there others you would prefer that may be more focused or in other markets? Thanks

iShares MSCI Brazil ETF (EWZ)
Q: Hi, current in my portfolio of 13 stocks + 2 ETF I have some good performing stocks that are > 5% position, TXN is 10.3%, DIS is 8.40%, EWZS is 9.37% and ADM is 8.54%. 25% of my holdings are in TECH (3 stocks + 1 etf). Do you feel comfortable with keeping these stocks with current positions or could I trim it to reduce risk ? I don't have many exposure to financials and consumer cyclical sectors. Can you suggest me growth stocks in these 2 sectors in US and CAN ? In healthcare I have only ABBV, I would like to have other good options here for growth and medium risk. I have +20 years horizon.

Q: I have noticed a lot of insider selling lately and wonder whether these actions should raise concern. I note your previous response about individuals, even insiders, wanting to use some of the profits or rebalance their investment portfolio(among a couple of good reasons), but when four individuals in the same company start cashing in, should we, the ordinary investor be concerned. What is your current position on these names?- hold or adjust?
Thank you
Peter
Q: I believe quality of management is a key component of your stock evaluation. In this context I wonder how you would score TXN as it seems to have had a lengthy history of success. I would also appreciate your comments upon the relevance of its current production profile. Would you buy now or attempt to find a pull back?
Thank you.
Q: Hi Team, Your general thoughts on Texas Instruments after earnings please. I do own some as I think their technology will benefit from driver less vehicles and I do like the dividend. How is the growth profile? In my RRSP, is it a keeper ?Thank-you in advance. Sam

Q: Hi there,
looking for an addition for my us portfolio - am a bit of a value investor. Each of these stocks seem to be struggling of late but appear to be good long term investments. All with a bit of dividend and good growth prospects. If you had to choose one ( regardless of sector) which would it be here.

Q: Hi there,
I inherited all 5 of these positions in my US portfolio and looking to reduce to 3. i am leaning to NVDA, AVGO and QCOM but I know very little about MCHP. I am also concerned about letting go of TXN given their role in converting analog to digital signals. YOur thoughts. I am looking for a balance of growth and a stable dividend.
Cheers
Q: I own both of the above and am still above water, but they are not holding up well in this current environment, so should I hold or move out.. If so do you think intc is worth pursuing or some other stock perhaps would be better going forward.
Another question HD is another stock similar position, what do you think buy,sell or hold. If buy what would you replace it with. Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i,
I hold the above in the semiconductor space. Do you think there is too much overlap or do they all serve separate markets. Would it make sense to keep all of the above or should I swap one of them out for AMAT? Would that give me better diversification? If so, which one?
Thanks!
Q: What do you think of the semiconductor space? Does Texas Instruments or Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing look good?

Vanguard Industrials ETF (VIS)
Q: Hello Peter, I want to have a reasonable allocation to US industrials, including companies like UTX and Texas Instruments, those in the defence sector, etc. I'd like to do this via a well-priced ETF but am a bit lost in the growing ETF jungle. I already have small 2% positions in IWO and QQQ. To best gain exposure to the US industrial sector (including industrial technology stocks that are more economically sensitive), would you suggest I just add to these two ETFs, or can you suggest a better or more targeted one? (I do have a preference for Vanguard as a company, but that's not essential.) Thanks in advance!
