Q: hello 5i:
We recently sold U: 50% gain and a bit too high valuation for us. To quote Peter: we would reduce very expensive growth stock exposure. Current tech holdings are CSU, PANW, AVGO, OTEX, TOI and DND; the latter 2 being about 1% positions. We would like to replace U with something "less" exciting and are considering TCS, APPS and QCOM as you seem to favour these stocks (like others, I read the questions/answers daily). TCS is very appealing as it looks to have a moat within the health care sector, but we also own VEEV and WELL. Is there too much overlap here? APPS is a volatile trader and not really in our wheelhouse, but is of interest. Can you make a suggestion as to how you'd replace U?
thanks

Q: I am looking at my losers. Please list in order of preference which ones you would average down on. I know that's a bad word but we could call it greatest contrarian opportunity. Obviously risk is not a great concern but not to be completely ignored. Thanks as always

Q: Although it is a US equity, it is mentioned here often enough that perhaps you will answer a question about it. APPS has received many favourable comments from 5I; can you explain why you like it? It recently has a noticeable reduction in share price.....is this a buying opportunity or a change in momentum? In a growth oriented TFSA, I am thinking of trimming some NVDA, CRWD, and AMZN to create some funds to purchase a small position in APPS. Those 3 have grown but are not (yet) too high of a weight , this would be to try to boost results. Is it a move you would make, or would you just stay the course? Many thanks for your excellent service.

Q: Hello,

Further to your response regarding inflation and five Canadian and US names that might perform better, do you also have five mid cap or smaller cap names that might benefit from inflation? Both US and CDN?

Thank you!

Q: Hello. A forced choice request. I have been tracking these 6 captionally noted US stocks for some time. At the moment I have capital to invest in three new positions. My interest is in growth, and I'm planning to hold for min 5 to max 10 years. Clearly, I'm an investor and not a trader. From this list, which 3 stocks would you anticipate might hold the best prospects for continued growth over that time span. Thanks!

Q: This a follow-up to our TFSA question dated August 24, 2021, and specifically relates to the 5i suggested list of 10 US stocks.

Of the 10, we have so far initiated positions in GRMN, LULU and REGN.

As we already have a substantial position in V (and MA), please suggest an alternative, perhaps in payment services, such SQ, AFRM or PYPL. Also, please suggest an entry point.

For the remainder, NVDA, DG, GOOG, JPM, CRWD and APPS, please rank them in terms of conviction and for each, suggest an entry point.

As always, thanks for the great advice!

Q: Good morning!

I hold a 1/2 position in Magna. I do believe in this stock longterm. With the shortages and things appearing to be priced in. Is it time to top up to a full position?

On a separate question what are your highest conviction growth pics in TECH for the 4Q.
Preferably US but can spribkle some Canadian names as well.

Thank you for the amazing input and service. It's been immeasurable.

Q: After a seemingly sunny day today (OCT 21) in the market -- including for each of the stocks listed -- something must have happened after the trading day ended. Tech stocks especially dropping into the red in After Hours trading. FB almost -6%; TTD -5%; APPS and ROKU -3% each. And those are just the more noteworthy ones. I cant seem to find any mention (as yet) in the press. Inquiring minds would like to know. Thanks.
