Investment Q&A

Q: A question for Peter. NVDA, AXON and ISRG are examples of great companies, that you have followed and recommended for years. Which 2 or 3 companies do you have your eyes on, that may become the next group of great companies in the next 10-15 years. A brief explanation of why each of these companies may become great, would be appreciated. Thanks for this excellent service!

Q: Happy New Year to the entire 5i community.

It is time to make my 2026 TFSA contribution. My TFSA is a high conviction portfolio focused on a few US securities with a risk profile somewhere in between that of the 5i Growth and Balanced portfolios. Currently, I hold AAPL, ADBE, CRM, GOOG, NVDA, QCOM, and TOL in this account. Which should I add to? I am very overweight NVDA and slightly overweight in GOOG.

If you think initiating a new position would be preferable (US securities only, and not MSFT, LLY, IBM, or MDT since I own these in another account), please let me know. No consideration to sector or market cap necessary as I am diversified in my other accounts.

If you believe any of my current holdings 'do not need to be owned', please let me know as well.

There are several questions here, please deduct as many credits as deemed appropriate for a complete response to each one.

Thank you as always.

Q: Could you please rank these companies from from most to least desirable for a new position:

GRID, TRI,ENS, STN, WSP, PSN, URI, KRMN, PNG, CECO, AXON

Q: I want to have my TFSA grow bigger. Of the stocks listed, in what order would you add them to the TFSA? How long of a hold do you suggest, and what are target prices you'd be comfortable with? Is it better to wait for a pullback? Take as my question deductions as needed.

Q: I would be interested to know what your suggestions are on US growth stocks for long term hold in a RRSP account (sectors not important).

Thank you.

Q: Have room for one industrial - looking at AXON or RNMBY - which gets the nod?

Q: I’m doing a fairly major portfolio clean-up and account optimization exercise.
Specifically, I’m removing dividend-oriented and income-generating stocks from my TFSA and RRSP that are better suited to a non-registered account, and reallocating TFSA/RRSP capital to assets that benefit most from tax sheltering.

At a broad level, I’d appreciate your perspective on:

• Which CAD and USD names are best suited to an RRSP (e.g., U.S. dividend payers, global compounders, cyclicals, etc.)
• Which CAD and USD names are best suited to a TFSA (long-term growth, compounding, low income leakage)

I’m less interested in yield optimization and more focused on long-term after-tax efficiency and proper account placement.

If helpful, feel free to answer at a category level (e.g., “U.S. dividend aristocrats,” “Canadian compounders,” etc.) or with specific examples you think are particularly well-suited.

Thanks — looking forward to your thoughts.

Q: Any comments on Axon, has had a pretty rough 6 months. It was pretty highly recommended is it still high on your list to recommend for future growth?

Q: With my tax loss proceeds, I am thinking of taking a position in cecco, axon or clbt, Could you prioritize these in terms of immediate purchase? Thanks for all that you do and happy holidays to you and the staff, Cheers, Geoff

Q: I have the following in the industrial sector of my total portfolio.:
AXON = 1.1%, CAE = 0.9%, HPS.A = 1.9%, ZDC = 0.4%, VRT = 3.4%, WSP = 5.2%, CWW (etf) = 3.1%
Am ok with the VRT, WSP, CWW levels. I have new money to add to some or all of the smaller % holdings. Can you weigh in on what your approach would be, including selling any or buying something else . Thanks as always for your knowledgeable, experienced and measured assessment.

Q: I hold a position in Axon. 2025 has basically been a flat year for this stock. Do you see more upside in the future? Thank you for your excellent service.

Q: Hello 5i - please take the number of credits you need. I began investing last year and have the following portfolio/down rounded up: GOOG: 6%, BN 7%, CSU 4%, DOL 4%, ENB 7%, HXS 9.5%, IFC 5.5%, META 4%, SHOP 7%, WSP 5%, AXON 4%, BRKB 6.5%, ISRG 6.5%, NVDA 2.5%, CRM 2%, AEM 1.2%, BAM 6%, H 1%, LMN 2%, AMZN 5%. I have about 40% cash to add in. Can you please advise of the following: 1. any key stocks you would recommend I add? Please prioritize with 1 being highest recommendation and 5 being lowest recommendation. 2. Any stocks you would recommend I sell? I am interested in a 5 year view. Thank you so much!

Q: What U.S. companies would you recommend for a US $ TFSA ?

Q: Down significantly in the past 6 months, would this business be more reasonably valued now - and appropriate to step in at this point, to purchase for a long term hold?

Q: Hi everyone at 5i thank you all for the great information love this service. So from an analytics point of view I am overweight tech and under weight industrials. Given the recent pull back is this a “good“ switch? This is in a registered account so no tax implications. I’m not that good at charts but it looks like there is some support at $500 for AXON? The other tech stocks I have are NVDA, SHOP, AAPL, CSU, LMN, TOI, of these CRWD is the worst performer only because of the date of acquiring it. I would love to hear your opinion. Thanks again for all your help.

Q: Could you please rank the above industrial stocks in order for purchase now? I currently hold some and looking to add 1 or 2 more. Thank you

Q: Good morning, If needing to raise a little cash, which TWO of these stocks would you consider selling given current markets: TVK, ATD, GRID, EQB, GLXY, CLBT, NXE or AXON?

Thanks very much

Brad
