Q: Hello 5i

My TFSA needs some torque - can you recommend three US growth stocks and three Canadian growth stocks that you find compelling to buy today for a 3-5 year hold?

They do not need to be sector or risk specific.

Thanks so much - very appreciated!

Q: Re: Jean's question about moving loose cash (presumably a smallish amount) out of the TFSA before year's end.
It makes sense to me if in 2024 I intend to make a contribution in-kind from my non-registered account. That extra bit of contribution room will enable me to transfer a greater quantity of stock to my TFSA, thereby putting that loose cash to good use.

Q: According to Dale Jackson on BNN Bloomberg today, it's a good idea to withdraw loose cash from the TFSA account before year end in order to add the amount to next year's contribution? Please explain because I don't see how moving cash out to put it back would be interesting.

Thanks

Q: WHAT ARE THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CANADIAN TFSA AND US TFSA TAXES AND ETC.? AND REASONS FOR PICKING ONE OVER THE OTHER?

Q: Hi 5i,
I understand each investor has their own idea of risk but I would be interested in getting your thoughts. In regards to small caps stocks I believe I choose quality at an attractive price with a plan to hold forever (of course they don't always work out and I may eventually sell them). I struggle with whether to buy them in my TFSA and/or NonReg account. TFSA is great if the stock appreciates dramatically and the NonReg is great if I pick a loser and I sell it for a capital loss. Can you perhaps provide some words of wisdom how one can approach this dilemma. Thanks

Q: Hi 5i Team - I am interested in buying more U.S. stocks and have a non-registered U.S. dollar account as well as a TFSA account in Canadian dollars. Are there any concerns over buying U.S stocks in the TFSA account? eg. Are U.S. capital gains and dividends still tax exempt in a the TFSA. Any advice as to preferences re which account to use would be appreciated.

Q: Hi Team,
For an 18 year old who just opened their TFSA and starting with $6500, what stocks or ETFs (CDN and/or US) would you start with? There are no trading fees so there is no worry to buy 10 names if that is the best way forward.
Thanks

Q: In August of 2019, between "TRI" (at $80/per share) and "GIB.A" (at $101/per share), based on P/E valuation, I bought "GIB.a". Then three years later, in August, 2022, I compared both companies share performance, "TRI" went up 90% while "GIB.a" share price was in sleeping bag, almost the same as I bought 3 years ago. Considering no dividends while waiting, so I sold "GIB.a" and bought "TRI" which I am still happy with the switch. However, since beginning of this year, GIB.A left the sleeping bag and started moving up, and share price has gone up almost 30%. I wonder if you could help me understand what’s the reasons behind the move, worth to buy at current level? Thanks.
