Investment Q&A

Q: In my TFSA, I have a double position in BN, and full positions in POW, SIS, PPL, CSH.UN, TRI and BAM. I also have half positions in AFN (which I know is not your favourite) and DSG. Would you add to one/some of these (which?) or add something different. After my 2026 contribution, I will have enough cash to about a half position. I prefer to consider Canadian stocks for this account.

Thanks for you help.

Q: In a question from Oct 31.25 about data centres (includes suggestions such as hive pwr riot vrt nvt, do you see a noteworthy status change (positive or negative) in any of the names in that question/answer?

Q: GBT seems a bit ahead of LNF in terms of developing its real estate arm, but with a weak market, it’s paying a price for it. Is GBT a good stand alone investment, and secondly if I already own LNF to you think they will largely move together?

Q: 5i, How do you see the next 6/12 months, do you see a slowdown for the US or Canadian marktes?, would you stay fully invested in AI companies? and Can you suggest AI enablers (picks and shovels). Please take as many credits as you see fit. Thank you!

Q: So for those who aren't comfortable with an equity growth tilt or who may fear that after 3 strong years of performance 2026 may not provide the positive results many are forecasting, Innovator has in additioin to their buffer etf menu some dual directional etfs including DDSQ tracking the S & P for 3 months with a 5% inverse cap/buffer with a cap range of 3.1% - 3.85% and DDTJ a one year dual directional etf also starting to trade Jan 2 which has a 10% inverse cap/buffer and a cap range of 12.24% - 13.74%. Since I no longer believe in the tooth fairy I am hopeful you can look at these dual directional opportunities, break them down into simple understandable terms confirming what indeed they are designed to achieve for the investor over 3 and 12 months respectively both on the upside and downside and whether their goal is realistic. Finally would you recommend them in any way as worthy for investors seeking upside in an up tape though with a cap as well as providing positive returns in a down market and if both of those outcomes are achievable what are the caveats. Seasons greetings!!

Q: GIS, KHC, CAG and CPB are all near long term technical lows. I know these are not 5i type of investments. However, in looking for a reasonable value play and using Loblaw as a relative baseline of 10 (unless you have a better comparative), are you able to provide an overall approx. rating of each with dividend and balance sheet sustainability in mind? Are there any major concerns that would make you completely avoid any, or all of these?

Q: Which stock will have more growth going forward: GOOG or ISRG. I understand they are in different sectors and I am not concerned about volatility?
