Investment Q&A

Q: Your top 10 US growth stocks please. Thanks.

Q: Hi!

I'm looking to establish a U.S. portfolio and I've identified these 5 stocks as a good base. I have plenty of exposure to financials and energy in my CDN portfolio. Do you think these stocks are a good starting point? Would you replace any?

Thanks,
Jason

Q: WHAT STOCKS ARE INVOLVE OR DOING ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENT?

THANK YOU

Q: Hi,

Have some cash to put to work. What would be in your top 5-10 CDN and US stocks that fit the descriptions below. Can be value or growth. Long term investor. Thanks!

“stocks with fair valuations that are at great price points and have taken a hit during this market volatility”

“high-quality stocks with sustainable growth, solid valuation frameworks, robust profits, positive earnings revisions, and strong momentum compared to peers.”

“wonderful company at a fair price”

“Bargains are the holy grail of the true stock picker. We see the latest correction not as a disaster, but as an opportunity to acquire more shares at low prices. This is how great fortunes are made over time,”

Q: Hi Team,
What's your thoughts on Skyworks earnings? Stock is having a negative reaction. This one amazes me and the valuation is so much cheaper compared to most chip names. Why the constant negativity on it? Should a person be selling it for something else? Perhaps add to NVDA? Or Shop? Also...should a person be holding PINS, or swap out for some beat down FB? Thanks!
Shane.

Q: I have 6K in my TFSA that I’d like to deploy. Presently the TFSA contains the following names and the weight for each one of my TOTAL portfolio (Margin+TFSA+RRSP).

EGLX 0.87%
GSY 3.75%
LSPD 1.62%
MG 5.41%
NTR 6.26%
SHOP 2.05%
WELL 1.94%
NVDA 3.42%
PLTR 1.33%
PINS 0.53%
TFII 5.74%
U 2.29%

Should I sell EGLX and PINS since they have dropped below 1% of the portfolio?
Should I add to one, two or three of these names? If so in what order of preference?
Or should I go with another suggestion? If you can list 5 in order of preference.
Any sector CDN or USA.
I will not need the cash for another 8-10 years minimum.
Thanks for all you do.

Q: I have a full position of Fb and am thinking of dumping and taking advantage of other tech stocks that have sold off dramatically. Could you give some names that you think are near the bottom with lots of upside? Thanks

Q: As we move into 2022 I find myself looking for long-term trends that I can believe in and consequently feel safe to invest in. It seems to me that:
1. FINTEC
2. Cyber security
3. Payments
are three such trends. I'm curious if you agree with my three choices and if you do could you suggest a couple of companies in each trend that would be your favourites. Finally, are there other viable long term trends that you think I have missed?

Q: Could you please give me 3-4 U.S. stocks you like for growth, regardless of sector and advise also why you like them.
Thank you

Q: For the 6 big techs listed above, could you please list in order of best to "least best", for a buy and forget 10-year hold. Can you also list the 6 from least risky to highest risk. If you were going concentrate on only 4, what would they be at this time?
Thanks!!

Q: Can you give me 3 stocks you believe would earn 10% gain per year that have outdone them selves year after year? Not sure if they exist, thanks

Q: Hello 5i
I know that it is a good idea to either have a certain number of US stocks that are not represented in Canada, or an etf for the US market, in order to have a balanced portfolio. Fortunatly, or unfortunatly, I have both. And I am wondering whether I should either get rid of my stocks or get rid of my etf's. The above are the US stocks I hold. in pretty good percentages. If i were to hold only stocks what might you suggest to supplement these? I know that I am probably heavy in tech to really represent the US market and will probably have to trim here, maybe in percentages. any other suggestions appreciated. Most of these are held in tax sheltered accounts, so taxes shouldnt matter too much.
thanks as always

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: Hello
To-day I noticed a Canadian NVDA which purports to be Nividia Corp at about one tenth the US price. What is this? and Why the price differential?

Thank you

Steve

Q: Hi 5i.

I have studiously avoided investing in tech companies, largely as a result of not taking an interest in/understanding their businesses. (This is similar to my reason for never investing in crypto, which I can see only as a load of hogwash.)

With the recent drawback in tech prices, I now have some interest in putting some money into a couple of tech stocks that have a good growth outlook in the near- and mid-term. With that as the goal, simply some growth over the next few months or year, what 2-3 names, Canadian or American, would you suggest? (NB: I am thinking of putting no more, and probably less, than 10% of my portfolio into this play.)

Thanks for your help.

Q: Hello,

With a five to ten years time horizon, what are your top five US tech stocks?


Thanks!

Q: Hi,
What do you make of the rumour that NVDA is considering quietly pulling out of the ARM deal? If there is any truth to it, what effect do you think it will have on the share price?
Thanks as always for your helpful insight.

Q: I have TTD, PLTR, NVDA, PLTR, NVDA, CRWD, APPS, UCTT, CELH, AFRM, MTTR, UPST, VEEV, in my US account, and LSPD, SHOP, EGLX, TIXT in my Canadian (and holdings in other sectors, but these are the holdings in question). I don't need to sell anything, but don't have new funds to deploy in the low market. I had a lot of positions in tech going in and already thinking about consolidating the sector when the market turned. I wonder if you see anything that should be sold, and added to something else to maximize growth when the market turns good again, or if it is better not to shuffle at this point.

Q: I am considering positions in Digital Turbines, Crowdstrike, Twilio and Nvidia as the market declines. What is your short and long term views on these companies? Is 1/3 positions a good strategy until the markets settle??

Q: I'm looking for the best robotic company [manufacturer] to buy. Would this ETF be a good buy now or could you recommend something better in robotics?

Thank you.
