Q: Happy New Year to the entire 5i community.

It is time to make my 2026 TFSA contribution. My TFSA is a high conviction portfolio focused on a few US securities with a risk profile somewhere in between that of the 5i Growth and Balanced portfolios. Currently, I hold AAPL, ADBE, CRM, GOOG, NVDA, QCOM, and TOL in this account. Which should I add to? I am very overweight NVDA and slightly overweight in GOOG.

If you think initiating a new position would be preferable (US securities only, and not MSFT, LLY, IBM, or MDT since I own these in another account), please let me know. No consideration to sector or market cap necessary as I am diversified in my other accounts.

If you believe any of my current holdings 'do not need to be owned', please let me know as well.

There are several questions here, please deduct as many credits as deemed appropriate for a complete response to each one.

Thank you as always.

Q: GIS, KHC, CAG and CPB are all near long term technical lows. I know these are not 5i type of investments. However, in looking for a reasonable value play and using Loblaw as a relative baseline of 10 (unless you have a better comparative), are you able to provide an overall approx. rating of each with dividend and balance sheet sustainability in mind? Are there any major concerns that would make you completely avoid any, or all of these?
