Investment Q&A

Q: 5% of my RSP is allocated to a risky/riskier /max growth theme with FB, J, KRBN and NVDA right now. I am looking for 1 or 2 more additions. APPS, U, and CRWD are on my list of considerations. In theory, I could wait 5-10+ yrs for max growth, but knowing my personality, 3-4 yrs is more in line with my expectations. Pls suggest some recommendations (does not have to be from my list) - Thank you.

Q: HI 5i
I have half positions in NVDA ($217) and VEEV. ($194). Which would you add to now? or would you suggest dumping one and re-invest the cash into the other?

Thanks, Greg

Q: I need to lighten up on techy/growth stocks and replace with more defensive/value names. Of this list, are there any you would sell? If not, and if I wanted to sell something anyway, in what order would you suggest selling? Thank you.

Q: Hi 5i

Can you assign a rank on the future potential for each of these companies on a scale of 1-10? 1 being dead in the water and 10 being amazing potential from current levels?

If you have 1-2 favs from this list, what makes them better than the rest?

Thanks!

Q: Hi Team, I need to raise some cash and would like some help deciding which company to let go.
Just looking for your input on the best companies to keep for upside potential.

Thanks Dave

Q: Hi Peter and Staff

Looking at my health care basket, I have a couple of losers in it VEEV and VTRS.

I have had losers I regretted selling and losers I wish I had not wasted opportunity cost on.......I am fine doing either....Do you think the risk/reward of selling either or both of these to top up ABBV,PFE,SYK or JNJ would be a good move in the long run ignoring how many positions I have or should I hang on. If a sale is suggested which order would you top up the 4 stocks mentioned.

Thanks for all you do

Q: The above companies have all fallen below 1.5% of my portfolio and I am looking to do some cleaning up. Could I get an add/sell/hold recommendation on them please?
Thank you

Q: I hold TTD, NVDA, UCTT, VEEV, APPS abd AFRM in the USD section of my RRSP. TTD and NVDA are still green, the others are down, 30-50% with AFRM down 76%. Do you see any holdings that should be sold and added to the others?

Q: Hi. I still like both companies (veev,gh) but am going to sell for tax loss reasons and that they total between them 3% only of my portfolio. Am looking to consolidate into a single health care stock to go along with MDT which I already own in my portfolio. I like my positions to be at least 3% and not two smaller positions. Any suggestions. I was thinking ILMN. If you like ILMN please let me know why and what sets them apart. Thanks

Q: Hello 5i
I was planning to buy abbivie for health care. But with the fall of veeva systems, i am thinking about going for it, instead. Do you see any problems with that?
Thanks

Q: Which stock would be a good proxy for VEEV for a tax loss? Would you repurchase or would you recommend another stock in the same sector?

Thanks for your service!

Q: Good day 5i,

I hold SEMR and VEEV and both reported recently. I would appreciate your analysis of their earnings reports as well as what you see going forward for both.

I have a long-term outlook and a high tolerance for volatility, if the growth story is intact.

Thank you for your insights.

Q: Your opinion on the latest quarter? Big drop Pre market.
Thank you

Q: WELL or VEEV, which stock has the most upside potential? High risk tolerance.

Thanks for your service!

Q: Hi Team, I am trying to decide on one of the listed stocks. could you rank in order that you feel has the best upside.

thanks Dave

Q: Hello 5i
I have owned RGEN for several years.
Could you tell me how you would rank it against its peers? Is there a name you prefer more and if so why?
Thank you so much!!

Q: I have some new money to invest in my TFSA. I am well diversified in my other accounts, and am now wondering what to add to my TFSA. I am a senior so I would say about a 5 year time frame that this would stay in the TFSA, maybe more.
Any suggestions you have would be helpful.
Thanks so much for your help in the past, it has always proved very lucrative.

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: I am down 25% on this investment. Wondering what your thoughts are in this market, and going forward. Hold on, or move on? TIA

Thanks!
