Q: Hi 5i,
These companies are all I have in the tech sector. Can you rank them for me and are they all currently buyable? I’m a long term holder of dividend companies can you recommend a couple more or maybe I should just buy more of what I have. Your help is appreciated!

Q: I'm reviewing my American holdings, looking for long-term (5-10 year++) hold. I like about half of what I have, but I'm looking to - possibly - replace positions in Intel (full position), Verizon (full position), IBM (full position), and Roku (half position). Is that a good idea? My only limits are that I'd like to keep things American, I already own full positions in Google, Costco, and Intuitive Surgical, and I'd like to avoid more healthcare.

Q: Could you please tell me which 3 GICS sectors you would expect to outperform over the next 3 years (excluding Technology), and a brief explanation of why? Also, could you please give me your top two stock picks (not ETFs) for each of those sectors ? Could be US or CAD stocks but I am looking for stocks that also pay a dividend. Greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Q: IBM pays a nice dividend that has shown good growth over the past 5 years (the last 3 years, not so much). How would you rank it for both income and equity growth going forward? It seems that at one time is was the leader in AI and now it does not seem to get mentioned in that vein.

Appreciate your insight.

Q: We hear a lot about which companies might do well with AI, but we don't hear much about who does not. Surely there must be losers, perhaps companies that currently offer services that will be turned over to cheaper bots as AI progresses through the economic system? Your thoughts are appreciated.
