Investment Q&A

Q: Would you buy, sell or hold nvda and vrt today (Monday) given the Deepseek news. Thanks.

Q: 5i,

My Taxable Account is CAN only 3 months old. I'm lucky enough to restructure my entire portfolio these past few months for some optimization.

The goal outperformance of XIC. Large and midcap growth primarily. Core moat players as well. I'm shifting back to a more concentrated stock portfolio.

I add underperformers and cyclicals for boosts outside of my core. ie: NTR, TD, LUG
thus far this year.
Core by weight;
CSU, TFII
DOL, DSG, SHOP, WSP
BN, CNQ, STN, CLS, TRI
TVK.

Outside of materials, gold; no retail; no reits. If this was you. Do you add a company that doesn't meet your growth expectation/debt/cash flow etc for balance ie ENB.
Or add to your current.

Looking for your sage advice as well as 2 potential core additions or adds and 2 other high conviction torque. No parameters.

Thank you!

Q: I own some Bitcoin and would like to invest more but in my registered funds. Can you recommend an etf or CDR I could consider? Thanks.

Q: My partner is opening a new TFSA account. What 5 stocks would you recommend for a 10+ year investment today, emphasis on growth?

Q: I'm looking for an ETF in the US Markets for a US Dollar Money Market Fund or equivalent with low fees. Could you recommend one or two very reputable ones?

Broadly, I came into some US dollars, and before I invest them, I'd like to put them into treasury equivalents for security until I invest into the broader market.

Q: I own small (2-3%) positions in Snowflake, MongoDB, and Datadog. Would you currently hold these stocks or sell them? If sold, what are some possible replacements in the tech sector?

If I were only to sell one, which holding would you let go of first and why?

Thanks.

Q: The 5i team review GLXY in July 2024 with what I understand to be a moderate upside potential with some risk. The stock has gone form $18 to $34. I believe that you still like the stock but maybe for different reasons. Could I have your current thoughts please?

Q: Secure Waste Infrastructure (TSX:SES).

Is this another QST?

Is it worth buying?

Thank you.

Q: Is there anything you would buy today on the DeepSeek fallout? I have listed a few but am open to other suggestions. Thanks.

Q: Why the rather large decline of CPX today? Is it a good opportunity to buy?

Q: Hello
I have 3 x 5i recommendations I should probably move on from AQN (- 68%),
EGLX (- 98%) and ILLM (-81%).

With the remaining combined funds I would need a 350% to recoup the loss back to even - assuming a 5yr min hold what would be 5is thoughts be for sector and position choice to reallocate ? I d prefer these be positions your moderators in fact own.

Q: Retired, dividend-income investor.

I've held NWC since 2019 and have done quite well, averaging roughly 15%/yr. I have trimmed and added over the years. Late last year I trimmed at just under $50. It has since ran to $55 and corrected roughly 20% to $45...now at $47. I see it's P/E range over 5 years has been 7-35-ish, now at 17. I was thinking of topping up again. To me a good price would be $45 and a great price would be $40, even though I'd happily buy where it is now.

From a Trump tariff point of view, my research shows mostly northern Canada, plus USA, then Caribbean as it's markets....any concern here?

Your thoughts on the current valuation, my entry top-up ideas and the Trump tariff would be appreciated....thanks....Steve

Q: Doing my semi annual balancing. Have some money to add to one, two or all three of the named companies. Looking at a 3 to 5 year time frame, what would you suggest. (With your thoughts on the subject)
Thanks. ram

Q: What would cause cash to lose money ?

Q: Hi, with shares skyrocketing so quickly, would you take a breather or wait for the correction, or would you still buy at today's prices, in your opinion? Thank you.

Q: Hi Folks,
I'm considering these 2 stocks - IBIT and GLXY. Which would you prefer to start a small position in today?
Thanks

Q: I know you like both but for a purely growth if you could only buy one company for a 3-5 year hold would you buy Datadog or Celestica today?
Thanks for all of you folks do!

Q: Good morning,

I recently became aware that SOBO's dividends can be paid in US$.

Q1. Do you consider it a good idea to journal SOBO.CA holdings in a CDN$ Non Registered account to a US$ Non Registered account so that US$ can be generated in a similar manner as journaling BN shares from my CND$ Non Registered account to my US$ Non Registered account for the purpose of generating US$.

Q2. Do you see any negative aspect or tax implication with this strategy?

Thank you for your thoughts on this and I'll await your response.

Francesco

Q: Looking for investing suggestions for someone in there mid twenties that has a very good job and are just starting out investing, I was thinking buying a few ETFs that auto buy every paycheck through a big bank brokerage arm kind of set it and forget till they figure out if they want to learn more about investing. Also what would be a good basic investing book that teaches how RRSPs and TFSAs work? Is Gordon Pape still around, lol.

Q: Hi 5i team,

I'm looking to deploy some new TFSA money for a 15-20+ year hold, ideally for a CAD stock given the current high US exchange rate. I currently have more tech than other industries with stocks like NVDA, SHOP, GOOGL, CSU, MFST, LMN, TOI and TTD.

I'm looking for some non-tech growth CAD options. Can you please recommend and rank 5-10 options in order of their leadership and balance sheet?

For CAD non-tech stocks, I currently own WSP, TVK, GSY, BN, EQB, ATD, BYD, ATZ, HPS, SLF, TD, TFII, LULU, WELL, CS, and ATS. Would you add or start new positions in your recommendation?
