Q: Good problem to have - I own the above ETFs. Combined, there are now about 6% of my portfolio - I also own Axon, which is another 3% of my portfolio (up 65%). Am I getting too high into defence-related positions, or does the diversification in the ETFs mean that I could consider higher positions? What would you consider the top end regarding percentage of portfolio, and would you tie the Axon into the calculation? Thanks!

Q: Good morning 5i
I would like your advice on a covered call options strategy. To date I have been selling covered call options on stocks I already own, such as Nvidia, Meta, Google, Shopify, etc. I sell mostly three week to monthly expiry dates. I usual tend to buy back and roll out if the market price surpasses my strike price. ( which I have been doing more frequently, recently).

All of these stocks have very high embedded capital gains and i wouldn’t want to pay the tax if called away. So far buying back and rolling out has worked well, though.

But, I am looking at other strategies, such as buying two or three good stocks, such as amd , palientir, etc specifically to sell call options. Here being called away is not a problem, as one would have little capital gains tax and , say in the case of amd, wouldn’t miss losing it, since I hold Nvidia.

Another possibility is to sell call options on a relatively volatile etf, such as QQQ.

I highly appreciate your advice, as I do in all investing questions

Q: Hi team. A few months ago I asked about the best stocks and/or ETFs for my 32 year old son to invest $12K of RRSP $. We didn't get to this yet.... In the past you recommended a few ETFs. What would you recommend today. I'll help him get this invested through a self directed plan next week. Thank you!

Q: What do you think of women's clothing maker Groupe Dynamite (GRGD)? The sales and profit growth looks pretty good. Stock isn't cheap, though, at about 25 times earnings. I figure you prefer Aritzia, but would GRGD be a decent addition to a small cap portfolio?

Q: Good morning ... I have some cash in my TFSA account that I'd like to get working for me.
Between Kneat, Vitalhub and Zedcor which do you see as the best investment for a minimum 5 year hold in terms of providing a combination of capital safety and upside potential.
Thanks, Rick

Q: My NOVO holdings are down significantly and I’m considering moving on to either BKNG, RTX or EUAD. On a scale of 1- 10 (low to high) please rate all four (ie. including NOVO) for both growth and risk, for a five year hold. Thank you.

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
AEG has done well lately. I bought it several years ago as a contrarian play when it was out of favour. So I am up and wondering if I should take my profit. I remember the saying that bulls make money, bears make money but pigs get slaughtered...if you know what I mean.Ha! Ha! So do you think there is any further upside or has it run the course? Thanks as always!

Q: Good morning 5i team!

Your thoughts on LULU, RH and CROX? I bought them recently in expectation of a China tariff deal ultimately getting done. (NKE's Q results released today probably doesn't hurt sentiment). Are there any other names you would be interested in for a significant bounce?

Thanks as always.

Dave
