Q: ETN is a theme play that is on the move. I'm thinking of selling UNH (considered defensive) and buying ETN even though it is more cyclical in nature. Other healthcare names held are ABBV, ABT, BSX, ISRQ, LLY (starting position), and SYK. Currently, health care makes up 9.71% of the total portfolio compared to industrial at 19.12%......What do you say about this stock change? And other suggestions are most welcomed!.....Tom

Q: Hi 5i,
These companies are all I have in the tech sector. Can you rank them for me and are they all currently buyable? I’m a long term holder of dividend companies can you recommend a couple more or maybe I should just buy more of what I have. Your help is appreciated!

Q: I notice these 3 stocks are the 3 best performing stocks in the US over the last year based on the aggregate stats. What is each of their stories of success over the past year and what are the growth prospects from here for each of the three?

Q: Could you please recommend 5 US stocks (any sector but tech) that have a good outlook for the next few years. I am not adverse to risk as this would be for my TFSA.

Q: Hi Group can you please rate in order of your preference for short term trading not to buy and hold . Give me the ones with the most potential to grow. Most of the ones I have identified have been in the tank lately and should be ripe for some sort of recovery. Also if you have any good ideas that fit the criteria please feel free to add/rate the opportunity as you see it.

Q: I was in a Lululemon store in Tokyo (Roppongi neighbourhood) last month. It was a smaller store but very busy and the staff were great...

I have a full position in SHOP. This stock is more expensive than LULU but the growth is also much higher.

Could you compare the growth and opportunity potential for these two consumer companies both short and long term.

As of today and from a strictly growth perspective would you overweight one over the other?

Q: I've read recent Q&A on ULTA, and agree about why the stock price has been weak. I'm looking long term here though, and will consider a potential buy(s) at certain technical levels. But first...

- What is 5i's attraction to this stock? It seems highly recommended.

- How solid is the balance sheet?

- What are its growth plans?

- Much competition?

- Is this considered a mid-cap? Just trying to get a sense of size and future stability.

Q: I also like LULU for the longer term growth potential and the fact they seem to executing well on their plan to get to $12B in revenue by 2026. I'm optimistic about the Chinese growth opportunity, but I did see an interesting WSJ video this week in which they reported that young Chinese have less reverence for Western brands than previous generations. Sharing a bear case perspective for others to consider in their analysis: https://youtu.be/hHOSEFRtaNc?si=biHglaJfBs0yuJ_c

Q: I have some cash to deploy. Do you think yesterday's shift into 'other' stocks is a meaningful moment? I am not looking to sell any of the big US firms (GOOG, NVDA, etc.,) that I hold but wonder if it is an opportune time to put some of this money elsewhere. I am specifically looking at the US market and the move yesterday into RH and the like. Any sectors or specific stock suggestion that might fit this theme would be appreciated. I am thinking of US mostly, but not exclusively. Thank-you.

Q: Hello Team,

Looking at starting a new position in a few of the 12 companies tagged. Can you rank from 1 to 12 on which companies you think is the best to start a new position in. No worries on size, industry or risk, looking for capital appreciation only over the next 3 years.

Thanks again!

Q: Good morning 5i, I've held CCL.B for a few years and until the positive results in the 1st Q this year giving it a bump it has been a slow grower. I'm considering moving on to something with more momentum. Two questions: What are your thoughts on CCL.B for the next 3-5 years?, and if it were to be sold, what are your top picks in the consumer cyclical sector, Cdn or U.S. for growth and ideally a small dividend? I already have ATD and BYD.
Thank you

Q: Hello Team,

I was wondering if you could rank the attached 12 companies from 1 - 12. I have some money to deploy in my cash account and already own all 12 in my TFSA/RRSP. Will be a 3 year hold.

No worries on size, risk or industry, looking for best returns only.

Thanks!
