Q: Hello, I am thinking of lightening up on SHOp where I am almost at 9% and buying AAPl as a replacement where I already have a half position. I would appreciate your thoughts on this. I am not quite sure why Apple is raising money in the form of bonds..while it has a lot of cash.
But the next version of iphones are much anticipated..I get this insight from my teenage children.cheers Shyam

Q: I've noted in the Q&A section you continue to support both CSU AND CGNX. I already own CSU and note that with all the 'noise' these days it seems to go about its business and is much more stable than some of the other tech. companies. Would you consider CGNX to be the same kind of company and do you think it would be a top American company to complement CSU? Are there 1 or 2 other tech. companies (Canadian or American) you could recommend that you favour that would help me to gain good diversification to the technology sector. As further guidance, I appreciated Mike's caution about the importance of being patient, but I must admit, I personally find it easier to maintain my patience when I'm invested in less volatile companies. As always, I appreciate your guidance.

Q: There are currently no obvious cyber security etfs listed in Canada. Do you have a short list of Canadian-listed cyber security stocks that I can make up my own pseudo-etf. As a long-time subscriber, thank you for your service.

Q: Hi 5i,
what is your favourite Canadian Technology stock for the Growth Investor?

Q: You answered a question yesterday for the top five tech stocks you would recommend. Surprised you omitted KXS - is this because of the Samsung thingy? Your answer to a later question on KXS indicated that you didn't think this was a problem. Is there some other reason it wasn't included in your top five?

Q: Can you please comment on PHO results. Thanks

Q: Hi 5i: I am down about 20% in CLS. Has anything fundamental changed in the company? I note that management prediction for the next quarter was reduced. I am considering selling CLS and buying Shopify instead. What would you think of such a move?

Q: In adding a security ROE not significantly below 20% ; PEG not TOO far above 1.0-1.4 : these together with reasonable forward P/E are top of mind in in key things I look for.

I would be thankful for your response and comment on the following issues:
1. Does KLAC meet most of my critical factors, do you think ?
2. Would you personally buy KLAC at or near current prices?
3. Does your analysis indicate probability of strong growth in the next 2 to 4 years?
4. Is the stock reasonably (fairly) valued relative to industry prospects using GARP thinking?
5. Does KLAC have strong competitors around the world?

Your insight would be valuable. Thank you.

Q: Hello 5i: Your thoughts on IDTI in the US would be appreciated. Buy, Sell or Hold. Thank you Barbara

Q: I am down 25% on KXS now and a lot of investors seem to be fearful, (though there must be buyers as well!). In your opinion would this be a good time to build back up to a 4% position or better to wait for the next quarter? Thanks.
