Q: Could you please give us your opinion of this ETF. It would seem to be a good choice for some exposure to the" Metaverse".
Read Answer Asked by shirley on November 12, 2021
Q: Hello 5i,
Do you think Metaverse is a better investable theme compared to Crypto?
Facebook seems to be allocating capital to Metaverse.
Can you suggest some stocks in US or Canada that give exposure to this theme. Can you suggest any ETFs other than META that invest in this theme? Do you think this is best held in a TFSA or NonReg account?

thanks

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: Hi Peter and staff,
Thanks for the great information that you guys provide.
These are the holdings in my wife's TFSA account. I have owned CNR since March of 2020 and have done quite well but I'm wondering if this stock has reached the top of the price range and it's time to move on. The average Price Target is $165. Do you think that CNR still has upside or can you name two stocks to replace it.

Thanks and have a great day
Joe

Q: My 21 year old daughter holds Costco, Unity, Etsy and Crowdstrike in her US TFSA. Should we sell something to buy Nvidia? Or should we start over and sell more than one holding to replace with others? 5i is a great service!

Q: Hello team,

I am up 40% on CAE, which I don't think is going any farther until planes are back in the sky in a meaningful way. Would you agree?

If you more or less agree, I am thinking of selling CAE and put the proceeds to one or two of the followings ordered base on my losses in each. The original investment is almost the same amount in each stock with the exception of BLFY which was 1/2 of others:

U (+7%)
Appl (-1%)
ABNB (-5%)
PLTR (-6%)
CRNC (-23%)
BLFY (-40%)
PINS (-28%)

Would you average down or would you sit tight? I know you don't like averaging down in general, but I thought I would ask as sometimes there are better growth opportunities and it does make sense to build up a larger position.

Thanks for the help!

Q: Am wondering which of these stocks are vulnerable to climbing interest rates. For the vulnerable ones, would you please advise at what point you would consider reducing or selling them. Also, a strategy on when and how to do such an assessment would be instructive.

Thanks for your great advice. Most of your subscribers say this regularly, but they probably really mean it ! If it weren't for 5i, I'd still be holding a bag of mutual funds not knowing how big my losses were.

Q: Hi Team,
I am holding the following stocks at a loss. BABA (-52%), MED (-30%), TT(-4%),EGLX (-33%), MG (-8%), SWKS (-20%), U (-1%), PINS (-33%).

My question is, should I continue to hold the line with all of these? Or are there any that stand out to you as being better off to sell and swap out with a different holding of which you suggest? Or any of these I should be selling, and adding to another one of these? I thought perhaps after yesterdays sell off there might be some moves I should be making. (Although the market is already recovering nicely today on alot of these names). Suggestions here would be appreciated. Thanks!
Shane.

Q: Would you be able to provide a grading for the following stocks as you currently have for CND companies in the Report section? Would appreciate your thoughts, +A through E for the selected companies.

Any chance you’ll be adding US companies to the Reports one day?

Thanks
