Investment Q&A

Q: Any reason CLBT did not participate in the rally yesterday?

Q: Hi,

One month ago, April 4th, in an answer to a question, you listed your favorite stocks, both Canadian and U.S.

Which would they be today, for a growth investor, with a general indication of the reasons and risks of your list ?

Thankfully,

Jacques IDS

Q: Hi, can you give an thesis update on CLBT and where you think it's projecting? It's been quite flat as of late, and I would've thought sentiment increased with a trump administration on cracking down supposedly more crime.

Q: Could you please rank these 5 stocks in terms of growth prospects and business model / sector strengths?

I have a 2yr to 3yr timeframe for these portions of my portfolio. Thx.

Q: The rumour today is that Trump's team is about to announce their first trade deal. It sounds to me like England. Assuming that more of these follow and perhaps increase in frequency, sentiment will change and I personally expect a risk-on environment.

Please list the 10 equities from the US and Canada (in any sector) that you project will move most aggressively over a 3 month period in an environment where trade deals are the daily news and not negative bluster. Note, I am not asking you to asses the probability of deals, just the 10 companies that are poised to benefit most in terms of share price. Note that these can be risky companies but if they are, please state that and explain why the upside makes up for the risk.

Please take an extra credit and state whether each suggestion is a short term trade or a long term hold.

Q: Hello Team,

Are you able to rank the above companies in order on which one you would purchase today, looking for great possible return over the next 2-3 year. Plus 2 of your other favourite US stocks.

Thanks

Q: I own the above stocks/funds. Do you think it’s best to continue to hold or sell to purchase different investments?
Thanks

Q: With the steep sell-off recently and stock markets coming to terms with a global trade war, which five Canadian and/or US small to mid-cap growth stocks across any sector look most interesting at this point? Looking at starting partial positions as I do not think the bottom is here yet. Thank you

Q: During his appearance on BBN in November Peter's top picks were CLBT, ROAD, and FOUR.

These are all down substantially since the show.

Did Peter hold those 3 in his actively managed fund when appearing on BNN? Does he still have any or some of them in his fund today?

Thanks


Sheldon

Q: In current market and given the uncertainty over the next 6 to 12 months, would you be buying small to mid cap stocks or would you wait for uncertainty to settle?

What would be your top 3 Canadian and US small/mid cap names?

Thanks
Tim

Q: I’m looking to invest in two or three Small Caps for a short term gain. Nationality does not matter. Suggestions appreciated.

Q: I would like to narrow this list down to the best 10 to hold in a long term taxable portfolio. What would you suggest be the top 10 stocks? I currently hold all of them but would like to sell this down to 10. I like holding 10 stocks with about 10% in each as a risk/reward balance. Thank you - and thanks for some of these names which came from you! I am only down on Amazon and BN at this time.

Q: Hi 5i Team - For Cellebrite, Nebius and Crowdstrike could you comment on what portion of each company is based on AI. Could you also comment on whether their AI involvement is semi-conductor, software or service/support related. Thirdly what is the ability of each to withstand an extended market downturn if this present sell-off continues and would you be a buyer at these levels. Thank you.

Q: Hello,
I'm looking for some tax-loss proxy ideas for the following names:

CAN: DEFI, DCBO, HPS.A, KSI, VHI
US: CLBT, NBIS, PLTR, SYM, FOUR

Q: All things being equal would you initiate a position in these companies at todays prices.If not at what price would you purchase each.

Thank you very much.

Q: Time to clean up my tech holdings. Can you please rank them for a 3-5 yr hold. Need to get rid of 1 or 2 and maybe trim some others. Thank you
