Investment Q&A

Q: All of these stocks I have positions in and would like to add only if the price is right. Can you give me a target number for each stock listed? CRWD, PLTR, SOFI, AMD, GOOG, IWO, META, AMZN, GSY, UBER, L, DOL. Take as many credits as you need. I'm 33 and these are for retirement so long term horizon.

Q: Hi Team,
Over the past several years, as a general rule, one of the best buying opportunities seems to be buying quality, best in breed companies while they are down. Stocks such as NVDA, META, SHOP, BN, CRWD come to mind here where in the past we have seen significant sell offs but the quality names always seem to recover. My question is, are we witnessing this type of opportunity right now with UNH? In reality the name has been a steady eddy, reliable grower in the sector for years. Now...it loses over half it's market cap in a month? In my un-professional opinion this seems much too extreme to me for a company of this magnitude, with a long track record of success, and seemingly huge moat in the US. Is it time to start picking away at buying this name, collecting the now near 3% dividend, and sitting on it for the longer term? Collecting the div and having the name recover in say 3 years would calculate to a quite lucrative return. Thoughts?

Thanks,
Shane.

Q: Hi, I've read in Barron's that Crowdstrike will be laying off 500 staff, replacing them with AI. While obviously difficult for those laid off, I am wondering about the overall impact on CRWD, as I have noted today's negative reaction to the news. Your thoughts and comments on this would be appreciated. Thanks!

Q: Can you provide a list of US companies YOU hold? Please list them in order of weighting size ? 1) being the largest

Are you looking to add/sell any? Which US stocks are currently on your watch list?

Thank you

Q: Please, For tax loss would you provide some proxy ideas for
CAN: CLS & US: TSLA MSFT CRWD.
Thanks you

Q: Sorry for the long list, but that's my IT holdings and I need help to get to a more disciplined IT portfolio. About equal weight, except for SHOP which was owned and is currently on watchlist. Question 1- please advise a limited high conviction IT - does 5 sound about right? It would really help me if you could explain why these are chosen as I want to understand my investments. Question 2 - which ones to sell outright so that can redeploy funds? Any to hold for potential high growth potential?

Q: for a 5 year plus hold please rank the above from top to bottom.

Q: I initiated a starter position in ISRG & IJR several months ago in the U.S. growth portion of my RIF. Currently down approximately 5% for each. Considering selling IJR (1% of total diverse portfolio) and putting funds into ISRG (2% of total portfolio) . Or trimming a bit of my NVDA (8% of total portfolio with great gains) and adding to ISRG and CRWD (1.5% of total portfolio and still with a small gain) . Have been hit with decision paralysis!
Your comments would be appreciated.

Q: Hi 5i Team - For Cellebrite, Nebius and Crowdstrike could you comment on what portion of each company is based on AI. Could you also comment on whether their AI involvement is semi-conductor, software or service/support related. Thirdly what is the ability of each to withstand an extended market downturn if this present sell-off continues and would you be a buyer at these levels. Thank you.

Q: All things being equal would you initiate a position in these companies at todays prices.If not at what price would you purchase each.

Thank you very much.

Q: I am getting ready to DCA into these stocks in an unregistered account with higher than average risk profile. According to me, these stocks had a bit of a pullback with possibly more on the way.

In what order would you DCA into the stocks mentioned above? Is there any stock that you think should be excluded from this list?

Thanks

Q: Hi, Could you please comment on CRWD latest earnings, forecast and price pullback ? Thank you.

Q: Any reason for the 7% drop in Crowdstrike today. Buy more, hold or sell?

Thanks Dave.

Q: Time to clean up my tech holdings. Can you please rank them for a 3-5 yr hold. Need to get rid of 1 or 2 and maybe trim some others. Thank you

Q: Kim Bolton was on BNN today and he prefers SentinalOne over Crowdstrike.
Could you please give me your comments on this.
THank you

Q: In January you suggested a portfolio for 2025 could look like the one noted below. I’m 90% invested. position size is a high of 5% (full position) and 2.5% (half position) depending on my perception of size/risk. Based on the current climate, I lowered Nvidia is down to 3.5% - anything you would modify today? 5i - a mix of quality Cdn. and US stocks, with a lean to growth: GOOG, NVDA, VRT, CLBT, AXON, JPM, RTX, CRM, NBIS, ISRG, BKNG. CSU, TRI, BN, WSP, WELL, GLXY, CLS, ENB, TD, SLF, V, BAM, COST and CRWD. Calling out I also have a 4% position in Amazon and 2% Shopify.

Q: For a long term hold how would you apportion $30,000 among Axon,Crwd,Nbis

Q: Please rank these stock for risk relative to US Tariffs from High to Low.....yes, wonder how defensive these US stocks are......Many thanks.....Tom

Q: Hi,
Between these high growth names, which do you like best and how would you rank as best risk adjusted return to start a new position? Thanks!

Q: I am heavily tech weighted and am considering selling my entire position in NVDA and some CRWD as I have large gains in both. I would use the proceeds to buy positions in FLUT and SYK. I would still have position in AMZN, ASML, CRWD, GOOG, META, MSFT and VRT.

Any other suggestions?

Thank you.
