Q: Hello 5i. I am now planning to help my 30 year old daughter invest $10K of RRSP for a long term value. Can you recommend 3 stocks and 2 ETFs? As well, given current conditions, would you recommend equally spreading the investments over 3-6 months or invest in one full swoop given current conditions? Thank you!

Q: There has been a huge run in the AI related stocks which your service has nailed. Thank you! Are there other sectors that you think have growth and upside right now, and why? If you have a sector(let's say gold, or consumer, etc), could you give a couple names US and CDA as well? Or should I just look in your portfolios for your picks?

Q: Hi Peter, I have a TFSA portfolio with 15 stocks in it and was thinking of adding TRI to the list. In order to do this I would have to sell 10 shares of my RY and 7 shares of my CM which together generate a 78.60 dividend a year. The new position in TRI would probably be around 10 shares and a 1% weighting in the portfolio giving me a divided of 23.60 a year. Is losing the difference in dividends of 55.00 worth adding TRI, does doing this make sense in the long run. Thanks

Q: Regarding cash on the sidelines, I would be considered an agressive investor, retired, 100 % invested in equities usually, bias towards smaller growth and tech companies. Recently raised close to 15% cash, sitting in mm funds now. After the raise, the amount I have invested in stocks is the same as early July. Not sure what this cash will be used for, took some profits because from past experience " when it seems to good to be true", a shoe will be dropping sooner than later, maybe. I didnt raise cash waiting for a pull back to deploy, might happen, but wasnt the motivation. Guessing I'm not the only guy in this position. My question, in a scenerio where the US dollar and equties drop in tandem for a prolonged period, what investments would prosper?

Q: Hello, do you have any plans to add a comparison option within that chart display when viewing a companies profile? This would be very useful when comparing different companies within the same industry and aid in researching companies on my buy list. Also, would be extremely helpful when comparing a CDR performance with its US listed twin to determine the impact of currency hedging on overall return over a period of time. Thanks for the great service that you provide.
