Q: Hello 5i,

Trumponomics is laying waste to "green" energy. Can you list 5 stocks in Canada and 5 stocks in the USA that would be most affected? Is it worth hanging onto a small position of BEPC after the news? We have a small loss at this time.

Thank you

Q: The ETF symbol QDVO is only a few months old. It is run by the same 5-person team that manages DIVO. The team is headed by Kevin Simpson who also head-manages the ETF symbol DIVO . DIVO has done well for my portfolio (if one includes distributions) and this prompted me to look into QDVO.

DIVO leans more toward value and dividend stability, whereas QDVO brings a growth tilt to the same income-generating playbook. I was looking to blend upside potential with steady cash flow and wondered if QDVO might be a compelling enough complement to the already held DIVO. Both ETFs are for RSPs. I would welcome criticism, critical comments, thoughts, and insight. (Perhaps I am making too much of who runs ETFs?).

Q: Are there US stocks that fall under the buying opportunity for 3-5 years compared to a Long term hold ( > 5 years ). Or vice versa.

Can you please suggest 5 for each? Do you prefer US or CND equities these days, and why?

Thanks

Q: Hi 5i Team - First a general question on the topic of AI. Is agentic AI the sequel to generative AI and from an investment point of view are companies that are developing or involved with agentic AI ones we should be looking at now. Specifically is UiPath one to invest in along this theme and do you have any suggestions for other ones that may be equal to or better than UiPath. Thanks.
