Q: Thanks to recently learning about CDR's, I've been able to add NVDA (already up 20%) and LLY to my portfolio, which otherwise is dominated by TSX-listed stocks.

I'm interested in five other CDR's. Please rank them from your highest conviction pick to your least favourite: Amazon, Alphabet, Apple, Microsoft and AVGO.

Thank you very much for your service and advice. Pete.

Q: A cursory look suggests CAP REIT, in spite of its fall in price, still trades at a high multiple to FFO. How much of an impediment is this to the recovery of this stock? I have held CAP through a tough multi-year stretch, liking its conservative approach, being in residential (vs other sectors), its selling non-core properties to invest in newer buildings, etc. Interest rates have hurt, but that trend line may be changing. What does 5i think of CAP here. Is it worth holding in a TFSA for better days?
