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

Q: Hi, You already mentionned here that ZEM was more "tax efficient" than VEE, since "there is no US withholding tax" with ZEM. From what I can observe,VEE is only including emerging market stocks (and no ETFs or US stock), could you explain to me why VEE would be less "tax efficient" than ZEM ? Regards,JY

Q: In my TFSA I currently hold XBC, SIS, KEY and PKI. My philosophy has been, after an initial investment in XBC, to use the dividends from SIS, KEY and PKI to purchase more XBC. I realize that KEY has the much higher dividend but taking into account safety and capital appreciation would you add to KEY with my 2021 TFSA contribution or SIS or PKI?

Thanks Ken

Q: When Maxr launches their Worldview Legion Satellites next year can you see what kind of recurring revenue the company may take in? The only information I can find in press releases is that the service is oversubscribed and that the cost associated with building the satellites will drop and revenues and EPS will increase, Any information that 5i can see from your sources would be much appreciated. Thx

Q: I am starting to think about what should I buy with the $6K I can add to my TFSA in January. I like growthy names, and currently have BYD, DSG, ENGH, KXS, LSPD, REAL SHOP, and WELL in my TFSA. I have a well diversified portfolio, so not worried about the sector.

I was thinking of NVEI, DND, or maybe Topicus. Or some of your US favourites: CRWD, U, VEEV, PLTR.

Can you suggest your 2 top favourites from Canada and the US for a TFSA for a long term hold.

Topicus is supposed to be trading on the TSX Venture exchange. Do you think that will limit investor interest? I decided a few years ago that one of my rules was never to buy anything on the Venture exchange. But maybe I will have to break that rule (I will get Topicus shares from the CSU spinout). What is your overall opinion of Topicus, and how would you rank it in terms of growth prospects and capital appreciation in relation to the stocks I have in my TFSA, and NVEI, and DND.

Thanks,
Paul

Q: Hi 5i
What does the complaint from Blue Yonder against Kinaxis look like to you? I don't know if there has been any clarification yet but my feeling from what I have read it seems Blue Yonder is tooting it's horn for publicity.
Anyway just wanted to thank you again and to all the members who make contributions with their questions and comments.

Q: I was wondering if I could get an updated opinion on GAN. They sound the Shopify-equivalent of the gambling space. The CEO claims the US online gambling market to expand from 12% of the country to 75% by 2025 (over 6x increase). Thank you and happy holidays to the whole 5i team.

Q: Hello 5i
Both BEPC and BEP.UN have grown a lot in non-registered account. Is it Okay to keep them both in this account ? Since they have grown so much I plan to trim some and I wonder which one you would recommend to trim. BEPC is majority due to splits.

Thanks for all the hard work.
