Investment Q&A

Q: With the run of NVDA over the last few year I now have a HUGE position in the stock and need to trim it.
Can you suggest 5 Canadian or US companies that could be the next NVDA in the next 5+ years and their growth and risk as well as any other details you may have on the companies.

Thanks
Joe

Q: In a recent question you listed your top 5 North American stocks. What would be your next 5 best picks?

Q: Hi Team,
Over the past several years, as a general rule, one of the best buying opportunities seems to be buying quality, best in breed companies while they are down. Stocks such as NVDA, META, SHOP, BN, CRWD come to mind here where in the past we have seen significant sell offs but the quality names always seem to recover. My question is, are we witnessing this type of opportunity right now with UNH? In reality the name has been a steady eddy, reliable grower in the sector for years. Now...it loses over half it's market cap in a month? In my un-professional opinion this seems much too extreme to me for a company of this magnitude, with a long track record of success, and seemingly huge moat in the US. Is it time to start picking away at buying this name, collecting the now near 3% dividend, and sitting on it for the longer term? Collecting the div and having the name recover in say 3 years would calculate to a quite lucrative return. Thoughts?

Thanks,
Shane.

Q: Hi Team,
These Tariff moves have gone from "not a big concern" to a major concern with anyone holding a growth portfolio. Currently I am down 23% from peak in short order since January, due to a higher concentration in Tech names and other growth names. An amazing fall considering I thought I was holding all solid names (such as NVDA. PRL, SHOP, TTD as examples) Do you view this as 2022 all over again? Or do you think the market will bottom sooner than it did in that year? Hard to say I know based on Trump saying that he no longer cares much about the market this go around. A much different tune that last term. However I suppose that could change overnight. I don't imagine Musk in enjoying Tsla's fall; perhaps that will end up in a clash with Trump on trade policies or hopefully talk some sense into him at the very least. Looking for your take on the current situation. Lastly, I assume that since major damage is already done would I be best to just hold the line at this point? Or sell out some growth names even at current levels? If buying new purchases what would be your top 3 names to add to at current levels?

Thanks,
Shane.

Q: Good morning,

I have read a fair bit on PLTR and would like your opinion on it's future prospects and what you think of the companies balance sheet/debt ect..

Could PLTR be like Tesla or Netflix from the early 2000's? I remember looking at both of those companies and stocks and at the time using a value approach and just couldn't buy them prices were 24$ and 16$ at the time, those were some missed opportunities. Could PLTR be that or is it a GAME STOP stock?

Thanks

Q: Hi Peter, at the present I hold GSY in my RRSP at a slight loss and I was thinking of switching it out for SHOP. If a person could only buy one of these two companies witch one would be favored under today's circumstances and uncertainty. Thanks

Q: Hello 5i Research
If you had to pick just one of these stocks which one would you choose and why?
I know that it is like comparing apples and oranges.
Thanks

Q: What would be your one pick of smci, shopify or bkng? I see these are all liked by you. I am looking to add one more growth name to my holdings and not not concerned about what sector. I am leaning towards smci which I have bought and sold in the past but have not held as it seems to have big ups and draw downs which makes me nervous. Thanks,

Jason

Q: Can you give us your perspective both on the shop and the Roku side of this deal who benefits from what and which one do you prefer?

Thanks,

Sheldon

Q: Hi,

If you had to choose either Apple or Shop for the next five years, what would u choose and why?

Q: Hi - please share your view on the earnings and new direction. Thank you

Q: Looking to invest in shop for a 3-5 year hold. What is a good entry point? Is there a company you would recommend with high upside over them?

Q: Lightspeed and Shopify seem to be trading at low valuations while still flourishing during tech's recent unpopularity.
Would you "go crazy" on either/both, go easy or avoid them? I do like to gamble and feel both will be much higher in two years. What do you think?

Q: I sold SHOP:US for the tax loss in late December and just prior to my date to repurchase the share price took off. I have been monitoring since. Given recent market action is this a good time to get back in or do you think there is further downside? Thank you.

Q: How would you guys rate the above tech companies going out 3 years, I want to do some rebalancing by selling some shares of the weakest and putting the proceeds into the strongest. Thank you

Q: If I was to request to have SHOP moved from a US account to a Cdn account - how does it work? If say i had 100 shares in a US account - would they simply add 100 shares to the Canadian account and equivalent cash for exchange or would they add the equivalent shares - say 135 to account for the foreign exchange difference?
