Q: I recently became 5I member and this is my first question. I recently uploaded my Portfolio and It had given me some meaningful and actionable information. As per the Portfolio analysis I need to do rotate money from overweight financial sector 20.83% versus 13.3% suggested and invest in Technology 6.6% versus suggested 16.3%

Given that Technology has a very good run-in last year, should I increase my technology exposure or wait for a pull back? Within the Financial sector I hold TD, BMO, RY, BNS, LB, POW, EQB. Which one would you recommend that I trim or exit, and the which 2 technology stock would you recommend to invest in? In Technology I hold Intel, Cisco and Cloudflare

Thanks

Q: Hi,
Could you comment on my profolio for a 5 year hold? Should I add/remove/replace any of the stocks?
Also, Cathie Wood said she is expecting a drop of the market this year. However I currently have ZERO cash position. Do you think I should trim my profolio to have some cash? If yes how much percent do you recommend?
Thanks!

Q: I am trying to diversify my US portfolio with both growth and dividends in mind. Trying to build a solid portfolio using single stocks is difficult especially in this environment. I have IWM, SPY and XLK already. Which ETF would best fit my existing portfolio; DGRO or FHLC. Perhaps you have a better suggestion.

Q: I am looking to add a consumer staples stock to my portfolio as I currently own none. Could you please give me your opinion of PBH and L? I see Loblaw as more of a value play and PBH as growing more over the next 2 years. I am concerned over the difference in valuations between the two companies but would like some growth. The dividends are similar for both. Is one riskier over the other? Should I buy one over the other or perhaps buy both? Thanks.

Q: Four years since you've entertained a question on HIMAX...

Historically the company's performance seems to be lumpy at best (revenue, stock price action, margin, etc). However, recent chart action and volume is looking very good - almost like it has good momentum ;-)!

What do you make of HIMX today both fundamentally and with market momentum and what would be your expectations over the next few years. Bullish?

Q: Hi 5i
Considering initiating a small position in this stock which is currently down off recent highs around -14% for a 2 year hold.
In your opinion will the EV revolution be a negative/positive/neutral for this stock?
Not withstanding your previous response to Adam on Jan 13-2021, would you be interested at these level?
Thx
JIm

Q: Great and timely article yesterday on this "Phoenix market". With that in mind, which companies in the US manufacturing, health care, energy and technology industries would you be comfortable putting money into today with a 10 plus year hold with a medium/high risk tolerance? Are there any US names that you think should be full positions in the majority of such portfolios? Please feel free to deduct as many question credits as you deem appropriate.

Q: I am looking into opening/growing a position into a Canadian growth stock, I already have LSPD at around 6% of my portfolio. I have been debating as to whether I should increase my position in LSPD or open up a new position in a company like WELL, is there also any other Canadian growth companies that you guys are favouring during this time?
Thank you,
