Q: With interest rates rising, companies with heavy debt loads may suffer somewhat.
Can you please offer 5-10 top picks with large cash balances and low debt w/best bets in each Cda and US? also which big cap sectors would you stay away from due to large debt holdings? many thanks...

Q: I like both of these companies and I own both but would like to put some more money into one of them. Which would you recommend for a 3-4 yr. hold and why.

Q: Hi 5i:

Having sold my US tech before the pandemic (???) and Canadian tech 2 months ago (???) I am considering jumping into the Canadian tech space again. Would please advise me on your 3 favourites and rational for each. Potential growth and "safety" long term are key considerations. Thank you for always great direction.

Q: Hello. I have the above stocks in my TFSA and I have 6000.00 to add. Can you suggest any other stocks to add to this list or should I just add to the existing list? I have a 5-10 year time frame and I'm retired.

Thanks so much,

Q: HAPPY NEW YEAR TO EVERYONE.
My question is about the stock market in general, last time that these prices went down so low in march and april 2020, and then they took off again and i missed the rally because i got cold feet. So this time around i am asking is it a good entry point ex like square, nvei, gsy,dsg i already own lspd and toi for tech stocks can you give me a suggestion if i should still wait or go all in i have $33,000 room in my TFSA. Thanks

Q: Any particular reason for DSG’S drop in stock price today?

Q: Looking for guidance on 2022 TFSA contribution. Currently have partial positions in these Tech companies of roughly equal amounts. Could you rank in order of best investment opportunity from current levels?
Do any of these companies overlap in their target market and if so which one should I focus on for better opportunity.

Q: Season's Greetings 5i team,
We will be making a 6k contribution to each of our TFSAs in the New Year. The two accounts hold the following securities:

TFSA1: ATA, DSG, WELL and TOI
TFSA2: ATZ, BAM.A, DOO, NVEI and TOI

In what order might you invest the $ in the securities in each of the two accounts? (Given the relative size of this investment, overall diversification (across all accounts), size of holdings and industry allocation will not be affected).

Thank you for your dedication and all of the great work you do for us DIY investors. Merry Christmas and HNY!
Steve

Q: Please list around 5 TECH stocks that you like in US or CAD that are not 'expensive' when compared to the high fliers with little to no earnings. Please exclude the FB, GOOG, APPL, AMZN, NVDA and MSFT.
Thank you.

Q: I'm in the process of rebuilding my portfolio for 2022. It would be helpful if you could share with me a list of both Canadian and American companies that meet the following criteria:
1. They are some of your favourite companies from a fundamental perspective
2. They are currently buying back their own shares.
3. They offer a decent dividend.
4. They run businesses that offer good growth prospects for next year.
5. They currently offer good value.
6. These companies are so solid they would classify as 'core ' holdings.
At least six companies in each list would be appreciated.

Finally, I would like to express my gratitude for the support and ideas you have shared this past year. Definitely one of the best advisory services available to Canadians,

Q: From my selected list of growth stocks, please rate best to worst your pick for small TFSA portfolio portion of retired couples mostly div. income. Safety main concern but add others you might prefer. Trying to take advantage of tax selling. Thanks

Q: 2 of u favourities,DSG & KXS have a terrific run,with each hitting recent new highs. Is it time to take some profit. Q4 is said to be usually good for tech,but this time around there is a threat of a potential rate hike.While Powell re nomination is largely welcomed by the markets he is perceived to be more hawkish than Brainard,the other candidate,. As a result the tech sector in US & canada were hit hard today including DSG & KXSW.As well DJ only
gained 17 points after earlier gains of some 300 points..U valued opinion is appreciated.Txs for u usual great services & views.

Q: These stocks have been on my radar for some time and they, except GSY and DSG, have dropped significantly. What price levels should I start accumulating them and in what sequence? Thank you.
