Investment Q&A

Q: What Canadian stocks would you be picking up today in this selloff?

Q: I have the above companies in my TFSA which, due to the tech sell off, are now down to about 1/3 of a full position. I do not require any money from my TFSA for at least 10 years so have a long timeframe. I also own a full position of CSU in my wife’s TFSA which I will continue to hold.
I am thinking of selling one of these positions and distribute the proceeds in the remaining positions.
Could you rank upside potential of these companies?
Or should I just leave it alone and let time be my friend?

Q: Hi,

As a follow up to your answer to Curtis's question. What are some of the better companies in the data analytics space?
Thank-you.

Q: Good morning. What would you recommend for an investment Canadian and US data analytics company or space? Thanks again.

Q: Hi Peter and team.
Significant losses in all of these over last 3-6 months. Would you bail out on any of them and what could I reinvest in 3 CDN and 3 US that have been similarly beaten down but have a better growth outlook ?
Personal account with a fair balance of 40% US securities currently.
Thanks for all the advice
Peter

Q: Is there a reason for the big price surge 6.6 % in TOI while CSU drop slightly 1.3 % ? Thanks.

Q: Which 5 stocks from your growth portfolio and/or balanced portfolio would you start buying today for a TFSA for a five year hold (for an investor currently not owing any). Thanks.

Q: I have a bit of cash from tax loss selling and am thinking of adding to TOI. I notice that on your website there is a 20% short on the stock. Should this be concerning?
Thank you

Q: I have 1400 BMO shares in Rrsp, I want to sell them and buy tech stocks, looks like tech stocks are hit bottom, this is the list that I want to buy Lspd, Nvei, Toi, shop, Cts, Eglx, At , Goog, Amzn, Upst and Apps, your thoughts please, thanks always.

Q: Hi Team,
Today seen some big % moves by many growth/ tech names; which seemed to come out of no where. Overall, what is your sense on where we are in this pullback? Is it time to start buying some beat down tech names? This being said, if you feel a person should be doing some buying at this time; what are your most convincing buys from todays levels? Some of the stocks I was looking at are SHOP (currently not owned), or add to either of this list which I currently own all: ATZ, TOI, U, RBLX, SQ. Currently I feel like we are watching a major buying opportunity unfold before our eyes...similar to oil stocks a couple years ago and feel I might regret not adding some new funds at this point to some high quality tech names that have been sold off some 50-75% in many names. Also, generally speaking; if a person is looking at holdings that are down say 60% (which I am with RBLX,U, APPS)...should we be doubling down? It seems if not it's almost hopeless to break even from these excessively sold off levels. Deduct as many credits as necessary. Thanks
Shane.

Q: HI, This retired income couple want to invest 5K for our 20 year old grand daughter from our TFSA. To do so we have to sell some of our holdings in this account. Our largest holding SLF to our smallest TPZ are available with profits in most. Please suggest best to worst to select for raising the necessary cash. Our plan is to use the cash to purchase VGT.US or perhaps your other preferred etfs to be used in about 3-5 years. Thanks

Q: I own these 3 stocks. I would like to own only one for a long term investment, as they all seem to be in the same field. Is this a good idea or are they different enough to hold all 3.
Thank you!

Q: Please rank the following companies for long term holds in a TFSA, with a management rating for each. (10 being the best)

Also, I currently hold SHOP and CSU.. Do you feel LSPD and TOI overlap these larger companies too much to consider a position ?

Please suggest any other Canadian companies not listed for long term holds.

Thanks for everything! Cheers

Q: I plan to sell these stocks for a tax loss and then buy them back after 30 days. Could you suggest a proxy stock that I could buy as a replacement for the 30 days

Q: What order and at what price would you nibble at the stocks listed (already own them all at this point but no full positions other than Cost) + brief explanation why?

Is there any other screaming buys you would recommend at this time regardless of sector , Thanks for your help with my portfolio

Q: I bought into the story and concept of Topicus being a Constellation 2.0 junior. However, the S.P. performance has been anything but. Can you provide the top 3 reasons to own this (I am currently down 25%), I am hanging on for the simple fact I do not want to miss out for when this changes course. What timeline should I have in mind for better days and performance.

Q: Taking into account their current valuations, and their individual company risk, could you please rank these stocks in terms of overall risk from high to low for a 2 year time frame:
LSPD SHOP NBLY TOI NVEI WSP CAE TIXT GSY

Thanks for all your work!

Mike

Q: Can you please recommend a proxy for Lightspeed and Topicus with the intent to harvest tax losses. I hope to buy these back after 30 days.
Thank you

Q: Looking to add your top $C four or five picks to an already diversified portfolio .
I’ve been sitting on the sidelines for a while. A bit rusty on what looks good, after the free fall. Time to start buying again???

Q: Do you think SHOP or TOI have the most potential over the next 30 - 60 days?
