Q: With all the infrastructure work coming up the first two look like a coin toss to me. I know you like WSP and J but STN has had a good 2021 run and looks strong. Do you have any issues with STN vrs WSP?

Q: Hi guys,

Here are my u.s. holdings and percentage; cost 5.5%, nvda 5%, msft 4.5%, J 3.5%, amzn 3%, crwd 2.75%, abbv 2%, U 1.5%, upst 1.5%, veev 1.5% plus 2 etf's, arkk 3%, spy 3.5%
(Also i2i fund 1.5%)
Are there any red flags here or changes that you would recommend for a growth/balance portfolio? The rest of my portfolio is a cross between your (5i's) balance and growth funds.
Happy new year and stay safe,
Jim

Q: I'm lacking in Consumer Defensive, Industrials, and Basic Materials. Please provide some names you like in each of those sectors.

Q: The portfolio analyzer tells me I am low in industrials, slightly over is US holdings, and under in international holdings. I have cash in US$ to deploy for 1.5 positions. Can you suggest an industrial or two that might help me balance. If I have to go over in US holdings I'm okay with that. Thanks!

Q: Hi Peter and Team
Looking for guidance on US holdings in a non registered account. My feeling from following your questions is that the US market would likely do well next year or 2 and that I should not invest 100% in Canada. Can you list 5 US securities that you see as good growth for next 2-3 years holding ?
Thanks for excellent guidance
Peter
