Investment Q&A

Q: Hi 5i,

I am down about 20% on all these companies and am interested if you would consider them a long term hold for income.

Q: What US dividend stocks do you like right now for income that are good dividend growers and have a yield of at least 2.5%? Thanks.

Q: Do you recommend AMD now, and if so, why? Is the P/E ratio too high?

Q: AMD The perpectives for this stock are sometimes contradictory. Some analysts see it as as a promising competitor of nvidia with a great future. Others on the contrary are very more sceptical...about a possible sustainable performance. What are you appreciation on a 2-3 years range? Thank you very much

Q: Hello, I have bought these during Covid and now >70% down. They are in TFSA and RESP so I can’t claim the tax loss. I don’t need the money for next 5 years in RESP, and can hold for long time in TFSA, would you suggest holding them or take a loss and use the rest of the funds somewhere else (VRT or GOOGL)? Thank for your service.
Regards
Rahul

Q: Why is ms treading water ? The rest of the financials seem to have more life.

Q: Good afternoon, Just wondering if your conviction for Elastic N.V. is still as high as it was several weeks ago? Since the drop following the recent earnings report, ESTC hasn't really participated much in any of the tech rallies. I'm down about 11% and wondering if I should be patient, or consider selling and adding to other high conviction picks already owned, such as NXT, VRT or AXON? Thanks. Brad

Q: Which gaming company, between Caesars Entertainmnnet and MGM Resorts, do you think is the stronger of the two and you would prefer going forward?

Q: What is the expected profit and share price growth for Danaher over the next few years? I already own ISRG. Would you expect DHR to outperform SYK or LLY going forward?

Appreciate your insight.

Q: Does the present proxy fight at Disney pose any risk to the valuation of the company? How do you see it playing out at the AGM?

Q: According to Yahoo Finance, the “short % of float” is 39.9%, while the “short % of shares outstanding” is 16.55%. I also noticed that the number of shares short has INCREASED from 36.4M (January 2024) to 38.5M (February 2024).
1) Which short % metric is more relevant - percentage of float or percentage of shares outstanding?
2) Do these figures align with your other sources of information? (Sometimes free sites are unreliable)
3) With the stock up significantly, could there be a massive short squeeze on this?

Q: Given a 3-5 year period, please list the above stocks from best to least for growth.

Very much appreciate your service.

Q: Do you think AMD has a good upside at this time, and if yes, what is your reason pls? Thank you.

Q: Can u pick your 3 best choices and why for a long term hold in this market area? Is it too concentrated to own all of them? Are there any CDN examples of these home builder companies you recommend?

Q: Hi Team,
Currently for healthcare exposure I own VEEV and WELL. I was considering replacing VEEV with either LLY or UNH. Would this be advisable? If so, which one would you recommend? Also, regarding Well would you recommend continuing to hold it; or selling it to make a switch for either LLY or UNH as well? What sort of mix here would you recommend? I am looking for long term growth here. Lastly...do you see the healthcare sector in general to be a good place to be right now?

Thanks,
Shane.

Q: Can you provide a current outlook on these two from a valuation perspective

Q: Good Morning, Can I please get your opinion on the recent earnings of Viemed and Profound Medical? Are they worth holding for several more quarters, or is it perhaps time to move on. I know you don't have many ideas for Canadian healthcare stocks, other than WELL (which I own), but if you wanted to switch to another CDN or US healthcare stock, what might you consider? Thanks. Brad

Q: If someone had to purchase 1 etf in their portfolio, would you say that this is the best one even though it is pricey. Thank you

Q: Good Day,

I picked up CELH and CROX based on the answer to my last question, and added in POWL to boot. Based on my portfolio in my previous question, was POWL something you would consider redundant in my account, or would you be fine with that type of addition in your portfolio.

I have been holding SNPS and CDNS for a minute now, and it just seems to bounce back and forth between +5% and -5%. Are these mostly growers on news and earnings? What are their respective Expected growth rates over the next 1 and 2 years?

This brings me to almost "fully deployed". I have noticed in the last couple weeks that the volatility in the market seems to have increased, and the average of that volatility seems to be sort of flat over this time. I have seen some videos and articles calling for the "AI Bubble" to burst, etc. Do you think there will be a cooling in that space coming? and if that occurs will the market follow it? I've seen many replies where you state that NVDA has a clear 18 month runway for growth, and thus I imagine the companies that support it as well, does that still hold true in your view? If said cooling could be coming, would it be worth the fees to say, shrink/cut some positions? Or is that too much like timing the market and thus better to stay in?

Thanks for everything,

Q: Hello,
