Q: In what order would you buy them today for 3 years?

On separate note, I am wondering when 5I started and how long I am member.
It was exciting ride over many years and without your help I would not survive.


Thank you for great service.

Q: Hi 5i. I'm not sure if anyone has ever posed you a question about any of these companies, all of which have substantial operations in Canada.

Obviously, the expectation of continued interest rate hikes will have a strong negative effect on these companies' business this year. Taking a step back, though, do you see much to separate them as investments? For instance, is any of them materially more indebted than the others? Any thoughts you might have would be welcome.

Q: Hi Guys,

Which 20 lower risk stocks would you recommend to build out a $2,000,000 portfolio that will produce $ 80,000 in dividend income?

Would you want to spread out the risk and be in many sectors and stay only in Canada to take advantage of the dividend tax credit laws?

How much of the div is taxed if it’s a U.S stock compared to a Canadian stock?

Thank you for all your help & great services

Q: HI Gang,

You have commented recently that APPS will require patience and is a HOLD at this point. Could you please give some insight as to why you think its a hold? I am down 60% on it and have a time frame of 2-3 years. Could you comment on what to potentially expect in the next 2-3 years. (always respecting you don't have a crystal ball)
Thanks for all your work and guidance in this tough climate!

Q: Greetings,

Considering how popular Cruising is, I was very surprised to see the last time anyone has asked about RCL seems to have been last July!

1. Are they a risky sector?
2. Surely older demographic will gravitate more to Cruising?
3. Which Cruise ship company has the best potential?
4. Is there an aging demography themed ETF?
5. RCL - Buy sell or Hold?

Thanks!

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
Please give your assessment of this company going forward. The price is cheap and I am thinking it might be a good long term contrarian play...even with inflation we have to eat. How risky would a buy be...better to wait for a lower price...I see we are now officially in a bear market...are we getting near the bottom? Thanks as always...your opinions are always valued.

Q: ISRG is now under $200/share. I thought I would add to it if it fell below $200, and now that it has I am not sure if I should average down. I am down 40% already.

Why should I NOT average down at this time?

What price would you consider adding to this stock?

In this market many growth stocks have fallen considerably. I know you don't like averaging down, but at some point you will have to unless you have owned growthy stocks for 3 to 5 years then you are still positive.

thanks,
Paul

Q: Hello 5i Team,

I'm down considerably in these US stocks in a taxable account: APPS, DIS, DXCM, EXPI, FB, NET, NFLX, U, and UPST.

I would like to crystallize some losses.

Could you please suggest:

1. The stocks I should sell outright (and suggest a replacement);

2. The stocks I should sell and then re-buy in 30 days (and suggest a proxy); and

3. The stocks I should continue to hold.

Feel free to subtract as many credits as required.

Thank you for your valuable advice!
