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

Q: Can you explain how GPN was better than the newer fintech plays like SQ + PYPL last year?

Is this a trend that will continue?

What's going on in this space?

Thanks as always.

Q: Recently, guests on BNN have suggested that these stocks are getting very rich and value could be found in other stocks. Do you agree and also could you recommend 2-3 US stocks that show growth going forward and would be a long term hold.

Thanks

Dave.

Q: While I know your focus is not US companies, I have US funds to deploy for a longer-term, relatively conservative position. The outlooks for Moody's, Hyatt Hotels and VISA all seem to be positive stories to me. Considering their current prices along with other factors, which of the three would you consider the best prospect and why. If you could name your '2nd place finisher', that would also be appreciated.

Q: Hi Folks,
Do you think this is a good time to start a position in US financials? If so, can you give me 2 or 3 names that you like. Or is there an ETF that you prefer?

Q: Dear 5I Team:
I hold Visa for wonderful gains of 80%. Lately it's seems to be going sideways a for a bit. I've tried to follow your advice about not selling on momentum and holding for 5 years at least. Does this apply to Visa at them moment. Been fascinated to see how many of my Asian colleagues now using Visa in Thailand, Japan etc whereas 5 years ago, it was only cash when they made purchases. Thx for your advice. Lorraine

Q: Hi team, I have these companies in my TSFA. Can you rank these stocks based on highest potential gains (catalysts) in the next 12-24 months? They are equal weight and I will need to liquidate 50% of them within the next year or so. I know short term predictions are difficult but best guestimates are appreciated

Q: According to Portfolio analytics, I own about 7% of my portfolio in 3 Canadian banks and another 7% in 3 US banks. I also own another 25% of my portfolio in BAM, Visa, SLF, BRK.B and GSY which are in the "Financial" sector but are very different from each other as well as different from banks. How concerned should I be with this aspect of my portfolio. I don't need the money for 25 years.
