Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Hi! I keep seeing commercials for Sofi accounts in the US, and it seems enticing. I never see commercials for Robinhood. I hold HOOD and am wondering what the difference is between this and Sofi. Why should one continue to hold HOOD, and is the negative momentum due to competition? Does one hold through this negative momentum? Thank you for your insight.

Q: Hi 5i team,

Are there any interesting and investible stocks that are showing up on your radar that are close to turning a profit (maybe a quarter or 2 away) or have just turned profitable? Similar to a company who just initiated their first dividend, these types of stocks tend to get noticed quickly in the investment community. I assume these would be small and/or mid cap and thus higher risk but that is fine.
I/we sincerely appreciate your sage advice throughout the year and especially in the difficult weeks ...keeping us calm.
All the best to your entire staff and families during the holiday season and into 2026!!!

Cheers,
Steve

Q: My goal is to have $1,000,000 TFSA, currently at $320,000 (CAD) but have $40,000 USD cash in there from trims to CRWD (ty from 2018 <3) and PLTR. For US stocks I own SOFI, CELH, AMD, GOOG, META, AMZN. My plan for my TFSA is put new contributions in CAD and put in your CAD recommendations. But for the USD I have, can you recommend some US stocks WITH buy prices (willing to wait for drops to pick up stocks at a lower price)

Q: All of these stocks I have positions in and would like to add only if the price is right. Can you give me a target number for each stock listed? CRWD, PLTR, SOFI, AMD, GOOG, IWO, META, AMZN, GSY, UBER, L, DOL. Take as many credits as you need. I'm 33 and these are for retirement so long term horizon.

Q: Ignoring any crypto implications (I am decently invested in that area), do you think liberalizing the financial regulations in the US is likely to produce outsized short to medium term gains in that sector? If so, can you recommend a couple of solid names, a couple of speculative names and a couple of ETFs. Thanks again for the great service.
