Q: I recently sold Shopify at a huge gain, as it had become more than 30% of my portfolio. Thank you for the recommendation. It was in my non-registered account, so I have a substantial capital gain. I have a lot of room in my TFSA, so I am going to move a majority of the proceeds there to avoid future capital gains. I will buy back into Shopify if the price retreats. Can you recommend any stocks, understanding that there is higher risk, that have a similar potential to Shopify? Can be Canadian or US. I have some Lightspeed already. Also, for future reference, did I make a reasonable move or should I have taken a different approach? Thanks

Q: I’m looking to take a position in this company but have concerns about it trading on the OTC due to it being home-based in the UK, I’m guessing. It has growing 5-yr revenue and earnings and strong ROC and It’s not small at $9B market cap. How does it compare with its main competitor, United Rentals?

Thank you

Q: Hello!
1) I would like to get a good, general US healthcare etf .. what might you recommend now? (Long term income investor)

2) also, I would like an etf that has companies like Sanofi and GSK, at decent weights .. what do you think? I see that VYMI has them but at very low percentages.

Appreciate your advice. Thank you!

Q: I just tried Portfolio Analytics and have concluded my portfolio needs some work. I need to increase US and international exposure and I need more weighting in Communication Services, Consumer Defense, Healthcare and Technology. Please recommend US/International stocks for me to consider in these categories for a five year hold. Thank you.

Q: COVID-19 has pushed forward the whole work at home concept. That said, technology supporting this shift in working norms will be sought after. I own a few big tech companys now, yet there are so many more names that have been pushed into the limelight (like Zoom), that are extremely expensive. Would you think it better to buy an ETF or two rather than trying to pick individual stock future winners? Any ETF or otherwise suggestions?
Thanks

Q: Hello 5i team,
I greatly enjoyed your report on Covid 19 and investment themes. I have a pretty good idea as to 10 to 20 names of stocks that could fit into those themes.
Could you name just 10; I'd be curious to see how close I am.
Thanks,
Antoine

Q: Hi team,
What is your current view on this company? It has had excellent drilling success, pays a 5% annual dividend, has it's debt level under control.I am thinking long term, that is three years. Do you think that their shares are undervalued and would it be appropriate to add for a long term, three year time horizon?
Many thanks,
Jean
