Q: Greetings 5i

In my TFSA I have enjoyed a nice run with PHO. I am thinking of selling my position and using the funds to buy TOY. My reasoning is that TOY is larger and thus more stable.

I am interested in taking less risk in my TFSA. I am not concerned with the balance allocation of the portfolio as my PHO is not a high weighting.

Your insights are always valuable

Thanks

Peter

Q: Yesterday one of your answers to a question was "We would suggest KXS, TOY and PBH for growth".

Eleven days ago my 29 year old son transferred his tfsa from all cash to 85% etfs (VGG, VEE, ZWB at your suggestion) and to 15% equities (csu, sis, pbh per my suggestion and I was looking for growth with his long term horizon).

Given your growth picks of yesterday, do you think it's worth swapping his csu and sis for kxs and toy?

Q: Hi team,
I know this is a difficult, and perhaps speculative question; but what would be your top couple picks today for a growth stock that is capable and in your view, likely, to replicate the long term stellar performance of a stock such as CSU? I am looking for a long term, steady eddy growth that is capable of over years, producing that (000's of % return that CSU for example has done. Would you consider KXS a junior CSU? Or perhaps something such as pho? Give me your best, educated couple picks. Thanks,
Shane

Q: Hi,

Have MG ($2,000) in my TFSA. Looking at replacing it with TOY as MG may not be going anywhere in the next 12 - 24 months.

Your thoughts, please.


Thank you.

Q: Given that TOY has been drifting down from the $58 level at beginning of July and is now approaching the $50 level which looked like some resistance in June; do the technicals show any indication of being oversold or are there any buy indicators showing. Is this a good price to be adding at considering that a toy season is coming.
