Q: I added Descartes Systems on a pull back a few weeks back. I am surprised, but not concerned,, that it has been so volatile. After I bought a small position it quickly went up more than 10 per cent and this week I am back in the red. Is this type of movement normal for DSG? Has somehting changed at DSG or is just getting pushed up and down because it is part of a number of ETFs? I would like to add to the position but first I would like for 5i to let us members know if something has changed with DSG.

Q: I own OTEX and not DSG or KXS. I follow a blend of the income and balanced portfolio but bought OTEX instead of KXS as I don't like to buy companies that don't have a dividend. Thus why I don't currently own DSG or KXS. My question is should I sell my OTEX and replace it with DSG or KXS. I've owned OTEX for a few years so up about 25% ( excluding the div) even with the current pullback. I can see the change in the growth portfolio but don't see a strong reason to sell it to buy DSG or KXS in a balanced/income view unless you feel strongly otherwise.

Q: I'm thinking of increasing the tech exposure (presently 15%) to the 29 stocks I own in my portfolio. Presently my tech exposure is CSU, DSG and KXS. I find ADBE interesting. Would you invest more in the 3 stocks I already own or initiate a postion in ADBE?

Q: Hi 5i: I am considering getting back into some Canadian tech stocks. I would be pleased if you would provide me with your three best picks. A combination of cash on the balance sheet and moderate growth would be the criteria. I am a long term investor. Thank you always for providing great insights on investment decisions.
