Q: In a TFSA, with a focus on growth and a timeline that can be 3 years or more. I am fine with high beta and the fact that these are all at, or close to, their 52-week highs.
I have enough cash for a new, full position in just two of these stocks. The only tech I own is LSPD, hence SHOP is not in my list of 5 potentials here.
Based on fundamentals (EPS, P/E, P/B, & ROE), GSY ranks 1st or 2nd on every metric. Which would you like for a second choice that compliments GSY?
Thx.

Q: Hi i5,

According to "Buffett Indicator", when it's in the 70% to 80% range, it is time to throw cash at the market. When it moves above 100%, it's time to lean toward risk-off. Now Market Cap to GDP Ration > 100% means stocks in bubble territory. Do you think Canadian stocks may also in bubble territory? If US in bear market, do you think the above Canadian stocks which I am holding can be survived? Perhaps, should we start to off load which may be in danger during the bear market into cash, or switch among balance or income portfolio. Any suggestion?
