Q: I own all of the above US Tech, except ROKU. I was interested in your answer yesterday regarding potential growth for ROKU, all things going well. Amoung these companies, is there anything you would sell to move into ROKU? I don't really want to put new money into more US Tech, but would rather find the right balance in the funds I already have there. Thanks!

Feel free to rank using your assessment/analysis of a balance of performance/recovery, prospects, total return, etc. Sector diversification is not necessary. Mid to large caps (small caps only with high conviction).

$CAD/USD names (please include your favourite growth CDRs as well).

Q: Schedule K1 Tax Form. I was looking at general commodity type funds and see that DBC and PDBC seem somewhat similar if looking at their commodity portfolios. Both deal with 14 traded commodities. Was using ETF.com as the information source.

DBC seems to have more trading volume and also a higher mgmt expense (0.87%).
PDBC has mgmt expense of 0.62% and assets under mgmt seem to be approx 6Bil. vs 2.53Bil with DBC

One difference noticed is that the structure of PDBC doesn't result in the creation of a Schedule K1 Tax Form while DBC does.

Please explain to me like I'm a 12 year old and that I have a "BIG RED L" on my ETF/ETN trading knowledge and trades vehicle.... what significance is the K1 thing and what sort of pitfalls do I need to be aware of if trades are being done in non-registered accounts? Does the K1 have the potential to add complexity and hassle at tax time?

Thanks for all that you folks at 5i are doing. Much appreciated.

Q: I bought Netflix after the big drop in 2022 and have since sold a half position after a nice gain. In terms of its future, everything I read is about the ad-supported lower-priced tier. However there is almost nothing about the password crackdown that is supposedly happening early 2023. Surely this would have a more meaningful impact on the bottom line... I personally know MANY people that are sharing an account (myself included!!) that will ultimately subscribe when they are "kicked out".
Question 1: Has Netflix released any statistics about their estimates for how many people are "piggybacking" off another account and that they believe will sign up after the password-sharing crackdown?
Question 2: Thoughts on future growth potential?

Take credits as appropriate, thanks in advance.
