Q: Any particular reason for the large sell off today, particularly with tech stocks? I thought things were looking fairly good in the morning and with the news with China.

Q: At the present time I have a full position in Kinaxis, Constellation Software, and Shopify.
All 3 are in a non registered account. CSU and SHOP have done very well but KXS has been falling over the past year and I was wondering about selling it and buying one of the other 4 that I have listed. I am looking only at growth over the next one to two year time period. My risk tolerance is moderate to high. Which one would you suggest and why. Or would you just stay with Kinasix. Please deduct as many credits as you see fit. Thank you, Ian

Q: Hi 5i,

Could you provide a short comparison of these 3 companies, how they overlap and differ?

If one has investments in SHOP and SQ would they "supersede" Lightspeed, or could they compliment? When does Lighspeed start trading?

From my preliminary research Lightspeed appears to be a combination of both SQ and SHOP where they provide POS payment systems with the ability to create a webstore (but seem more focused on brick and mortar vs. Shopify being more online)

Thank you!

Q: I seem to never take profits in my non-registered account. I currently have an unrealized gain of +69.48% on OTEX. Do you think it's wise to take all or some profits? (I do have losses in 2018.) If I sell OTEX, what is are some good growth stocks with solid financials and good growth prospects. (I happily own CSU in may TFSA.)

Q: Thoughts on earnings? How would you exit this stock if you owned a 2% position? How would you exit any stock knowing after hours the stock is down 20% and is no longer something you want to be invested in? Does one wait a few days? A market sell order and hope for the best? Sell at 10:30am when there is a rebound?
I think Box has too much competition and losing ground especially compared to Microsoft and Google's products. Best case is this company is sold but I'm not one to hold onto a stock with the hopes for a buyout.
