Q: Hi, CRWD will be added to S&P 500 effective June 24, markets open. Stock has already been in a strong momentum, post earnings and was up 5% to an All time High of $368, in after market trading, Friday, following the announcement.. We have already been considering adding to our small 1% position in this cyber-security name. Is it too late ?

Considering CRWD stock momentum and proposed weight in S&P 500 Index, based on your past experience with Index Addition situations, do you foresee an immediate rush of buyers pushing the price higher, but the price only settling down, as end of 2 weeks window approaches and trading lower thereafter ?

How would you approach it from a Portfolio Manager's perspective, if you wanted to increase your exposure to this security ? Will you add now or wait for the stock to settle, after the Index addition ? Or, split the purchases ?

Also, would there be a price level/range, you will look at, before pulling the trigger ?

Thank You

Q: Dear 5i team.

I would like to look at a small investment in defence/war munitions sector companys or ETF. Can you suggest 3-5 names that cater to "War" efforts that can be considered a DIY ETF? As well, which ETF(s) would you consider for this exercise. Ideally one with the lowest BA %.
Finally, are these Co's trading at resonable valuations, or has this ship sailed, so to speak?

Many thanks for your help.

Q: I presently have $66,000 to invest and am looking at these stocks to buy. Please place them in order of preference . Best choices first and if there is some you would not buy at present prices ?

Q: Hi 5i Team,
I will be adding to one or more to small existing positions in either VRT, CELH, AMZN, BKNG, and or NXT. Could you please list in order of preference for addition at this time and considering a decent time frame and high risk tolerance. A short comment on the pros and cons of each would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

Q: The most recent question I found on USB was August last year. What is your current opinion on USB? Can you compare it to Visa for total possible return over a 5 year period? I presently hold no US financials.
Thank you.

Q: Good afternoon, Please recommend your 3 favourite international equity ETFs (without US holdings) and your 3 favourite US market ETFs. I already own QQQ which represents approx. 10% of my RRSP (in US dollars). Further, what are your thoughts on investing in the US market in US dollars (converted using Norbert Gambit) vs. Cnd. dollars? Is there an approach which has generated better results? Thank you.
