Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I have two smaller positions (about 1% each) in Gildan and Manulife, and I am considering consolidating them into a position in Apple (would be roughly 2.3% of total portfolio). I believe I still have room to add to my technology weighting, as I am around 12% currently, and I still have decent exposure to both consumer discretionary (roughly 10%) and financials (roughly 19%). Would such a switch be reasonable, or do you feel a more compelling argument could be made for consolidating around either GIL or MFC?

Q: Hello,
I thought Nvei's results were very good. Why is the stock tumbling? Would you add at this time to Nuvei for full position of 5 percent? What are your thoughts on ATS automation and Trisura and Auto Canada for longer term? Also with big push on EVs, would it be a good time to buy NFI? Thank you for the service.
