Q: Hi, US airline stocks had over 75% recovery, from the March lows. Airlines also responded positively to last week's surprise of positive employment numbers. Air Canada had been a favorite of various CDN Portfolio Managers, but the stock fell to its lows in March with the sector. The stock price has seen a nice recovery over past few weeks but is still way below its Pre-COVID levels of $50+. Company now has decent liquidity after recent equity/debt offering. Do you consider it a smart move to start building a position in the company, for long term, at current levels ? If so, should we start with, let's say 1% position and slowly increase to 2-3% ? What are the important factors to watch, over next several months ? Thanks

Q: Good morning 5i, I am piggy backing off a recent question by James, but if you can disregard sector diversification and risk is also not an issue and main goal of course is capital appreciation.

"If you were starting a new account with 100k with a portfolio of 10 US equities, with a 10 year time frame, which 10 would you currently choose?"

Q: I know you just added GOOS to one of your portfolios and mentioned it is cheaper compared to peers. What multiples are you looking at vs peers and what is it trading at? Also how is the balance sheet and how much revenue comes from China?
Thanks!

Also, just took a look at their website and just on a fashion perspective, it is doing really well (especially those Tron-like jackets... wish I could afford one).
