Q: I have a larger amount (6 figures) I am investing in the market as I consolidated and cashed out my assets when moving to Canada from overseas (due to not being able to keep them where they were for taxation reasons). I have been using dollar cost averaging when buying my new portfolio but am unsure over what period of time I should aim to do it and how often I should buy (every 2 weeks, monthly…?). I have commission free trading so that’s not an issue at the moment. What would you recommend? Thank you

Q: Hi 5I. Would you support a reversion from growth to income (divie stocks) while we wait out a return to geopolitical stability or do you think we are in a temporary market decline and there are more legs on growth, in particular, the AI boom?

Q: Hello Peter & team

Tried searching the database to see what questions had been asked about this new technology and failed. Please provide an analysis of the photonic crystal market in Canada, encompassing various aspects such as market size, segmentation, growth drivers, challenges, and emerging trends. Also which companies you might recommend and if you think now is the time to begin building a position in a portfolio. Has 5i started a position in any of their mock portfolios?

Thanks for all you do

Q: Tom Lee was on CNBC today and stated that Bitcoin may have bottomed this past weekend because it reached technical of US$77,000 and sufficient time has passed since October 10 deleveraging event (time and price have aligned for crypto to be bottoming). If Tom Lee's forecast is correct, what CAD or US stocks would benefit from Bitcoin run past previous highs ? I own GLXY. Is this my horse or are there better stocks ?

Q: Hi Peter and Team,

The last question on the ETF DATA was last August. Please share your updated opinion of this ETF, and I hate to admit it, but the proceeds of the sale of some CSU will be used to purchase DATA, unless you have misgivings about DATA in general.

As always, thanks for your insight.

Q: I asked about these 3 ETF's in May of 2025. As I noted, I purchased these with a view to moving away from equities. I am retired and interested in dividend income. Has much changed since your answer in May 25 ? Would you continue to hold through 2026 and just take the healthy dividends ? Or is more capital depreciation likely in 2026? If you could only keep 2, which would they be?

Q: Given the sector's relative under performance, I believe the timing is right to increase my portfolio weighting in the Healthcare Sector. I own MRK and PFE. As I started to research individual companies it became apparent my lack of expertise in the area and the pace of technological advance makes stock picking in this area challenging. As such I'm considering an ETF and am currently looking at RSPH. Do you agree with the timing and would you advise an ETF or another individual company? If the former, what do you think of RSPH and if the latter' what would recommend for global exposure to the sector

Thank-you

Any input appreciated,
