Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: My portfolio is the following:
Tech: 41%
Financial: 11% (GSY/BAM)
Communication: 10% (GOOG, ROKU)
Industrial: 9% (TT, XYL, WSP)
Health care: 9% (VEEV, DXCM, WELL)
Real estate: 3% (EXPI)
Cons Cycl: 1% (ATZ)

Tech holdings:
LSPD 2.6%
TOI 5.4%
SHOP 2.5%
NVDA 13.4%
PLTR 0.9%
CRWD 4.1%
SQ 3.8%
APPS 4.7%
U 3.8%

Looking for advice on which tech stock if any I should cut loose. I am clearly overweight in this sector, and would appreciate some guidance on how to better allocate my money?

I’ve heard you mention LSPD and SHOP somewhat overlap, but selling LSPD at a loss right now simply does not make sense in my view.

If selling a portion of my tech is ideal in your view, please provide alternative stocks in other sectors. Thanks

Happy Holidays!

Q: You didn't really answer Ian's question about how brokers make money.


When I started trading the commissions were 3% with a minimum of $50. They have slowly made their way to zero with some brokers up here in Canada. How are these brokers making their money?

Q: So I looked at my returns at the end of July and my TFSA was up 39% in 7 months. I'd have taken that as a decent return over 48 to 60 months. So early this week before the DnD acquisition and the Nuvei short report I sold DCBO, DnD, LSPD , because my 39% return was nullified. My thought was to add 3 of the 4 TOI,TSU,TFII,or TCN . Should I add 3 of the 4 and top up KXS and GSY in the new year or add all 4 of the T's?

Q: Good Saturday morning 5i Team. I've held Expi for approx 18 months it started out like a rocket but seems to be in the penalty box since the split. I see a new real estate play REAX-Q gaining some early traction. Do I stay the course with Expi, own both or move on. My position is in a TFSA, do I buy REAX as a Canadian or U.S. holding? Best of the season and as always thanks for your good council. David
