Investment Q&A

Q: Hi there,

If you were to build a US growth portfolio today of12 to 15 names, what names would you select?

Thanks!

Q: Happy Holidays everyone! I am relatively new to 5iResearch (few months) and must say that my results have been outstanding to say the least (SHOP, WELL, XBC to name a few - AC being the only one down so far). Thank you for that 5i.

I hold ET but am negative, as I am with BPY.UN (by more than 20% on both). I need to increase exposure in Technology, Industrials and both Consumer Cyclical and Defensive and decrease in Real estate. I do like some revenue but it is not essential for the next 3-5 years.

In no special order I am thinking LSPD or SYZ, TFII or WSP, PLC and PBH. What are you suggestions for growth here. Please comment and/or place in order of preference - objective being to recapture lost value in BPY.UN and ET over coming 12 months.

I understand this may represent many questions. Please take necessary credits. Thank you.

Q: I have made a double on this stock in a very short time and it is almost 40 % of my total TFSA portfolio. I use my TFSA for most aggressive stocks and the account is only 3% of my total cash/ RRSP portfolios.
You seem to think that January may see a fair amount of volatility this year as investors cash out some of the oversized returns, especially in tech, that have been made this year.
I am looking at adding XBC, WELL, STC, SCR
While writing this I am thinking the best action would be to sell 50% of EGLX now and keep the rest as it certainly has momentum and then wait on the others for the new year. What do you think? Any other small caps that you might consider if you wanted to take a flyer on?
All the best, Derek

Q: With all the buzz about electric vehicles, hydrogen, fuel cells etc are there any companies that would be leaders in the supply of infrastructure(manufacture, distribution)of charging stations, and associated parts for "refueling" vehicles of the future. These companies would seem to me to be the picks and shovels to the Klondike. Also has a standard for recharge devices been established? Surely each car manufacturer will not have its own recharge system.
Thanks,
Mike

Q: I would like to add some coverage in semi conductors. What are your thoughts on these stocks? Is investing in the ETF a better bet? Any valuation concerns with SMH? Do you have other suggestions that are not overvalued?

Q: Hi 5i team,

Currently I own in my TFSA the following stocks: CSU, DSG, KXS, OTEX, PHO, REAL, SIS, WELL, XBC, NVDA,VALE and PDYPF (Thanks to SHOP my TFSA grew considerably)
I would like to keep in TFSA only high growth stocks. After reading some of your answers it seems that CRWD and U are good candidates to add.
Please advise which stocks should I sell or move to my cash account to make room for mentioned stocks.

Becoming a 5i member was the best decision ever, thank you for you guidance and amazing service. Reading the Q&A became my daily morning ritual while drinking my coffee.
To all the team Happy Holidays.
