Q: Hello 5i team,
I hold a concentrated stock portfolio. If I was to start buying ETF's; which 5 or 6 would you recommend me buying slowly over the next few years that will give me a diversified portfolio. Five or six ETF's that I can continue to dollar cost average into over the next 5 years.
Thank you,
Brent

Q: Good Morning 5i Team,

In my TFSA I have some cash parked from the sale of some equities. I'm looking to move this cash into a few grow potential stocks, with a growth horizon of 5 years +. I do have a decent risk tolerance. With this in mind, what would be the 3-5 companies I should be researching?

Q: Hello,

I focus mainly on the balanced portfolio, but own stocks from each of the other 2 portfolios. Could you list and rank the top 3 or 4 from each on attractiveness to buy now.

Q: Hello 5i,
New to portfolio analytics, can’t say enough about this team! Bravo.

Circumstances forced me to shuffle financially this past year.
43, pension, rentals. 55 freedom or forget it.

Highest conviction, growth, maj; tech, leaning themes to the next decade, a sprinkle of sector diversity, large/mid/small caps, predominantly US. I’m aware of course of all the caveats here lol. A 12-15 starter pack would be fabulous.

This is you starting today; You have 300k.
I do add 700 per week, please exclude
BN, TRI, ISRG, COST, HIMS, NBIS, NVDA, BKSY.

Eagerly waiting! Thank you.

Q: When people compare investing a lump sum to dollar cost averaging to market timing they usually trot out long term averages showing lump sum is better. Doesn’t context matter? Valuations are currently elevated. If they ran the comparisons after eliminating the years when valuations were at or below some long term average would the answer change?

How would you approach this question in today’s market context.

Appreciate you get a version of this question regularly but I’d like your answer for today. Thanks!

Q: SHOP announced yesterday a collaboration with AI. Stock bounced up on the news. How big a deal is this? What impact on the price might it have? Is this something that analysts weren't considering and is new news? Now, for you crystal ball look, what might the stock price be in 6 and 12 months?

Q: KMI pays a less than spectacular dividend which increased this year by a very modest amount. The share price has been flat for almost a year. Their recent acquisition may be accretive but this has not yet been reflected in the price. What, if anything, do you see as a catalyst for price growth?
Do you have better alternatives in this space?
Thanks for your great service.
Ian
