Investment Q&A

Q: MS has been dropping the past few days, likely with the market in general and geopolitical reasons but perhaps also due to news that the SEC and DOJ are investigating the business on block trading. Given this disclosure, would you suggesting moving out of the position (even at this depressed price) into another such as JPM that does not have this similar SEC risk? Or, could this even be an opportunity to build on the MS position?

Q: I'm considering getting some HXQ after its fall related to incipient interest rate hakes. In your view is it too early for bottom fishing the NASDAQ?
Thanks

Q: Hi 5i
I am considering initiating a position in earthstone energy but there have been no questions asked on this energy stock and I would like your opinion.

The company has made several acquisitions in 2021 with another expected to close in second quarter..

What is your opinion on this company going forward and would you be interested at current price levels and if not why, why not.
Where do you it going medium/short term....Do they have potential given current the economic conditions affecting oil?

Many thanks
Jim

Q: Pypl continues to fall. Its P/E is now approx. 30. Although you haven't been too keen on the company recently, in your view what would be a compelling entry price? Thanks.

Q: Hello 5i, so much doom and gloom and grumpy people, I get it haha but be mad at yourselves not 5i!!

I could have sold Roku Shop and LSPD at all time highs but I also owned them before COVID and topped up near covid lows so not selling on the way up to all time highs in 2021 worked quite well but being greedy and anchored to certain prices did not end well :)

Thanks for all your wisdom over the years I sure wish I listened the many times you stressed keeping weightings at a reasonable level as much as you like a stock I shall try to heed that more often.

Let’s look at this positively if anyone has 5 plus years or more investing how can you not be excited to pick some possibly massive winners for the future. It’s like March 2020 opportunities but some look better and could be even more exciting when things settle down long term.

If you had to pick 5 growth stocks that you could own for the next 5 years the goal of course is capital appreciation and I’m not asking you to pick and purchase the stock today but if you had to pick the stocks today but had the next 12 months to purchase at any pace you want what 5 stocks would choose? Canadian or American sector doesn’t matter nor does risk.

Q: We know uncertainty helps the markets drop. With Russia saying they are drawing back troops and NATO and USA say they are building up, one could anticipate uncertainty ahead. With this in mind, is there any advice for which type of stock might be the best to buy on a future dip?

Q: Hi!
On Feb 17th, you were quite positive on Roku but today after terrible earnings you are not suggesting to add to positions. If this was a stock that was liked at 350 or higher, why is is not a screaming deal today? Has something fundamentally changed regarding this company and I would imagine that if you are recommending to a huge platform like this you have done the homework regarding this company that we lay people can't properly do. If you can please comment on the surprises you could not have anticipated it would be most appreciated. Thank you!

Q: What’s your thoughts on this company after it posted decent earnings results?
Thnx
Dave

Q: Could you please comment on their results?
Would you add to existing position?

Thanks,

Q: Hi,
In a question in mid-Jan on several stocks, you had an exit on AYX. Does their earning’s report this week, which the market seems to like, change your views on this stock?

Q: I currently hold a 2% position in Unity (at breakeven) and I am considering adding to 3% or diversifying with a starting position in Roblox since it is struggling at the present time? It would be a 5-10 year hold.

Your thoughts would be appreciated.

Q: I have very limited tech exposure in my portfolio (AT, SYZ, LSPD & TIXT all less than 5% each) and I am interested in these 3 names due to recent tech down trend.
1) Can you provide your opinion on them and suggest which one of the three is cheapest in terms of valuation ?
2) which one would be your best pick of the three, and why?
3) Also pick and explain the second choice.
Growth investor with med-high risk appetite and looking at 5 to 10 year holding period.
Thank you

Q: My position in ROKU has decreased to less than 1% with the losses it has taken from the highs (bought at $353/share). Would you recommend adding to it at these levels? How expensive is it right now? Is it at the high end of its peers? I am comfortable with risk, is held within my TFSA, and looking 5+ years hold.

Q: What are your thoughts on the earnings. I hold stock in my account and joint account. Both are in Cash account.

Tax Purpose - When I sell do I need to Average combine both accounts. Or I need to report profit separately since one is in joint account and another my own account.

Thanks for the great service

Q: Your top 10 US growth stocks please. Thanks.

Q: Both of these health care stocks fell significantly after reporting what appear to be decent earnings. They are both expensive -- less so now -- and high valuation stocks are currently being punished. But the drops seem overly harsh. Could you please comment on their earnings and guidance. Is this a good time to buy? Thanks.
