Q: My daughter recently inherited a substantial sum of money and would like me to invest such in a mix of companies, both in the US and Canada, with a modicum of international companies. She lives in Europe.
Could I respectfully ask if you could offer your chosen six equities in each of the US, Canada and worldwide (in order of preference), including one or two ETF’s, with a mid term (5 - 8 years hold) term. Could you also provide an entry point for each stock?

I do appreciate your guidance…

Q: “Joe” is getting overwhelmed with maintaining his portfolio and is starting to fall behind on autumn yardwork and home maintenance. His spouse and teenaged kids also find his contributions to family conversations rather repetitive and boring (in their words, he’s all “year-to-date” this, and “multi-bagger” that…).

In an effort to free up some bandwidth and reconnect to his people, Joe has decided to reduce the number of securities he owns to about 20 stocks and a handful of broad market ETFs.

Joe is hoping 5i can help him identify:
~10 favourite stocks drawn from its 3 model portfolios
~6 highest conviction US picks.

Joe wants to maximise returns over the next 7-10 years.

Thank you.

Q: I have to sell some NVDA for balance (thanks for creating this problem in my portfolio!). Can you recomment 5 US stocks regardless of sector that might have comparable growth over 3-5 years? Thanks.

Q: I have owned IFC for a while; its share price has gained nicely in the last 12 months or so but I am concerned it is becoming a bit richly value and am considering a switch to CB. What is your view of this change? Would you stick with IFC or make the switch, and why? Many thanks for your excellent service.

Q: Hi 5i Team - Could you provide some information on a company called Meta Materials which still trades or did trade on the Nasdaq. I think it has filed for bankruptcy but am not sure. The symbol should be MMTLP but am not sure of this either. Some specific questions are: How many shares are there and are there any any insider holdings or trading. Is there any potential for this company. I believe there is a class action lawsuit and if so do you have any opinion on how this might play out. I realize that this is a stock that may be difficult to research so any information that you could provide would be appreciated - and there's no rush.
Thanks.

Q: Hi Team,

Apparently Berkshire owns a large stake in Sirius XM. The company seems to be in the doldrums so is there any reason that you can see why Berkshire would own such a large stake in this company? Is it the same approach they are taking with Ulta where they see an undervalued company that they believe has a high chance of turning things around?

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Jon
