Q: Hi Peter, Ryan, and Team,

For a TFSA that includes all sectors except for Consumer Cyclical (don't know how I let this happen!), what would be your top five Canadian picks in Consumer Cyclicals for 2022? Should all 6K go into one of them, or should two or three be purchased for diversification purposes?

Thanks in advance for your valued assistance, and the best of the season to everyone at 5i as well as your members. I've learned so much from all of you!

Q: Since it's the end of a year, I will ask this question about stock picks for 2022. Hypothetically, you are in a stock picking contest to pick 10 Canadian stocks for 2022. Best total return for the year including dividends is the winner. Mr. X is your opponent. Since you are the pro, Mr. X gets to pick first. He has picked ATD, AEM, BAM.A, CNR, CSU, DOL, NTR, SHOP, SLF, SU as his group. You can't choose any of those. Which 10 Canadian stocks are you going to pick?

Normally I don't trade but want to try out the Tax loss strategy . Planning to Invest about $25k in 4 to 5 US or Canadian stocks which are oversold due to tax loss claims. Planning to buy this week and sell them in Q1 2022. What are your strongest convictions/ recommendation on this strategy at the current level. Can you please provide a few names that you have the most conviction in(Not necessarily the most upside)? Please rank them, provide a suggested price and the reason for your strong conviction.

Thanks and Wish a very Happy Holidays to everyone at 5I team.

Q: Hi 5i,
I’m in the process of rebalancing my RRSP and TFSA and looking to be greedy while others are fearful.
Specifically moving TD, FTS, T, and LNF to an RRSP so that my TFSA can be growth oriented.
My remaining TFSA positions would be as follows:
- Half Positions: NVEI, EGLX, LSPD, WELL, U, APPS, BAM.A, SIS, DND, BYD, MITK
- Full Positions: GSY, TOI, CRWD, ATZ

I am planning to deploy as follows:
- Complete existing positions: NVEI, LSPD, APPS, U
- New Partial Positions: AT, XYL
- New Full Positions: DOL, SHOP, VEEV, ANRG, ATD, TIXT
Would you swap out anything on this list that would better compliment my existing positions? I have a 10+ year horizon so I’m leaning towards aggressiveness.

Thanks!

Q: I bought these (and others) for growth, and was doing well, but am now in the red on these holdings. I bought for a five-year hold, so don’t need to sell anything, but I would ask, do you see any that should be sold or any that I could be adding to for a January bounce? Thanks!

Q: What are your top 3 U.S. stocks that look promising both in 2022 and beyond. I must admit, other than 2008 and March 2020 I do not recall a period in time where small and mid cap stocks have been crushed like this. Would you consider us in a bear market, even though the large caps mask this and markets at near all time highs?
