Investment Q&A

Q: It looks to me that some good stocks are being thrownout because of fear if you agree which stocks are good buys,not only technologies but others too.

Q: Good Morning,
I would like your opinion on what you see as the next multibillion growth industry? Is it the Metaverse, EV charging industry, or is it something else?
Thanks

Q: I own GOOG shares in a US account at 982 US, or converted to Cdn $ at 1,299.97. I also own the GOOG mini shares at 23.35 Cdn$.
Am I correct that I have to add these shares to calculate my ACB, 1299.97+23.35=1,323.32/2=661.66?
Or are the shares considered separate with each having their own ACB?
Thank you. cheers

Q: Hi Peter,

I am fortunate enough to have added the following big tech names to my portfolio recently. I currently do not hold an ETF although have been considering SPY as I have about 20k US at my disposal. Or take advantage of other big names currently on sale?

Do you feel there’s better ETF’s since I currently have full positions of it’s top 5 holdings?

Thanks

Q: I have about 10% of my portfolio in NVDA currently, and am . I have a 20+ year time horizon. Is this too risky of a position to take? Would I be better to put some or all of the money into XQQ, VUG, or GOOG to de-risk and position myself for long term returns?

Q: What are your 3 "table pounding" buys (3 US & 3 CDN) across any sector that you would be adding to your hypothetical portfolio today in this much lower market? I understand the markets could fall much more but if you were deploying today what your top picks be? Thx

Q: Which stocks -Canada or US -would you recommend for a 5% portfolio weight, with suggested entry price and rationale.

Q: Hi 5i Team - Would you consider any or all of Unity, Roku and Upstart as oversold. Also could you suggest a few U.S. stocks that may be oversold at this point - besides the possibility of the ones mentioned. Thanks.

Q: Hello 5I,
What are your top 5 buys right now on both the US and Canada looking.
Thanks

Q: I'm more a scavenger than a predator, as much interested in dividends as capital gains. Right now, however, I see opportunity in the growth sector as it collapses after years of ridiculous rises. My intention is to sell off bond funds to pick off the debris of this collapse.

First question: Now or wait?

Second question: What are your choices given this scenario, US or Canadian? Bear in mind, I'm not interested in the 5 or 10 yr wait. I'm looking at a bounce back after half the herd has jumped. I want reasonable growth prospects, a price to earnings ratio that isn't stupid and a margin that also isn't stupid. Say, for example, Apple.

You get it. I also don't expect perfection from you. No one ever got it from me.

Q: Given the possibility of a recession and the certainty of volatility for the next couple years, can you give me 4 CDN and 4 US stocks/etf's, you think might provide some safety and reliable, albeit moderated returns? The equities I've listed are my ideas.

Q: During the recent short run up these were up a lot: UPST was up 75%, CELH was up 22%, AFRM was up 70%, ARKW up 15%. They have not fallen back as much as others with this big drop in NASDAQ May 18. Should I be adding to them? They seem to outpace most of the other ones. Reading Seeking Alpha, GOOGLE's account in Russia was frozen and indicated they were going bankrupt in Russia and moving out of there. Doing a lot of research, I come across Jeff Brown (Micro chip expert) you probably are aware of him - and he said a Dutch company (I have heard of it before ASML - price is about $630) said this would be the number 1 chip stock for the next many years. More than one answer would be helpful for the above questions. I realize it may cost an extra credit or 2 for this. Thank you,

Q: I'm thinking of selling everything I have and starting over. The only stock I would like to keep is Suncor. Looking for 5-10 companies that will be good solid investments. 3-5 year time frame. Please include at what price you would buy. Take as many credits as needed. Thanks

Q: Could I please have your views on the best mid to large cap buys out there tor a long term hold, with a focus on USA. What do you think has the most potential upside with the least downside? Though call I know. I was looking at Amazon, Shopify, lspd, upst, Etsy, salesforce and square as candidates. Thank you.
