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".

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: Good morning!

AFRM aside, could you rank 3 or 4 of favorite US based IPOs so far in 2021, that you’re watching and briefly let us know what you see and like.

thx, Mark

Q: I'm thinking that there's probably not a better time to enter some stocks I don't hold but want to own, than during the turbulent September / October timeframe.

Are there any of the above you would stay away from at current prices due to (over)valuation, downside risk, potential implosion.

Unfortunately, I have previously owned stocks that have left a huge scar (Nortel, NIKO Resources, Poseidon Concepts, Concordia), and want to avoid a similar fate with current high flying stocks.

Thanks for your input

Q: Good morning team. I recently exited ATVI with all the sexual harassment allegations directed at the management. Didn’t sit well with me from an ethnical point of view. I did however do well with the stock. Wondering if you could suggest a couple of comparable companies to replace it. I do like the space. Thanks. Happy long weekend.

Q: Would welcome your interpretation of the recent Quarterly Results reported from Roblox, and your opinion on the merits of holding a position in the stock as part of a technology growth-oriented portfolio, or identification of any peers that may offer a better risk/return for a 5-year hold. Thanks as always to you and your staff.

Q: Hello 5i what are your thoughts on PINS, SPOT, ATVI and RBLX recent declines, I think all are overreactions for varying reasons (ATVI/RBLX getting dragged down with China crackdown on gaming, PINS USA MAU declined but everything else looks good, SPOT ... not sure what really changed here but it took a huge dive..) I like to buy a stock I know and follow anytime there is an overreaction like this. I know ATVI has culture issues with female harrasment and that has dragged them down as well but I don't really see how any of these stocks trajectory/themes have really changed all that much. How do you view these 4 stocks?

Q: Hi,

Congrats on the web site update! Makes it easier to navigate for sure especially when looking up company data.
Of the recent IPO's listed above, do you have a preference for one or the other or obtain a starter position in all 3? Or a different one all together?
Also, can you pls confirm the considerable drop in revenue as seen on the Company data for ABCL....or is this an error? I normally only invest in a company whose YoY growth/revenue is trending upwards...so this is a bit of a caution flag if I were to invest in ABCL.

Cheers,
SteveMc

Q: What companies do you see having the most influence or ability to bring the Metaverse to reality? I have been reading a fair bit about this, some think it will be the next version of the internet in conjunction with AR & VR. Using your crystal ball do you have any suggested companies for a long term plays.

Q: Morning

I have funds in my TFSA and am interested in investing in one of the three stocks listed. Would appreciate your thoughts on rating the growth and risk of each and whether you feel there is a better growth alternative.
