Q: Dear Peter et al:

I know this is an unfair question! Asking you to rank order your favorite children :)

Plan to add some fresh funds in these stocks in an orderly fashion.
Any thoughts?

Please feel free to add any other small cap stock(s) that you think is as good as these favorites of yours!

Q: Tech is the second largest weighting in my portfolio (at 20%). I have 3/4 of a position in PANW, with most of my initial investment out, and am up 474% on the remainder. I also own NVDA, AMD, APPL, FISV, MSFT and a few other small, high risk non-cyber security positions.

With the outage crisis this week with CRWDI decided to take advantage, understanding the potential overhang. I opened a position in 2 tranches; buying in the $256-$265 range.

My question: Now I have approximately 1.5 positions in the cybersecurity sub-sector. Would it make sense to sell off some or all of PANW, generate cash to create a full position in CRWD as it bounces along in the $250 range, or is the better move to stay with the two positions?

Q: Writing in again because I keep hesitating about how to start a high growth all equity portfolio..

For context, I am 39 years of age, with a comfortable income, and planning on working about 25 years. This would be for retirement money.

You previously answered you would be comfortable with an SP500 index fund as VFV of SPY as opposed to an all in one equity fund such as VEQT or XEQT, from what I understood.

Can you please suggest a porfolio of 5 to 7 all equity ETFs that you believe to be superior to the all in one variety. I don’t necessarily care about the truisms about absolutely needing to be geographically diverse. And I certainly prefer to avoid Canadian home bias.

Thank you.
