Q: Hi Team,
I'd like to start positions in an aggressive growth portfolio in the artificial intelligence, genomics, renewable energy (and EV) sectors (2-3 positions per sector). Holding time 2-5 years.
Also considering Bionano Genomics (BNGO).
1. Please rank the sectors for expected growth. Are there any others I should consider? Are they already overbought/overpriced?
2. Please rank the stocks in each sector for expected growth. Are there any others I should consider?
Thanks!

Q: In the healthcare sector I hold ABBV, BMY, MDT, AZN and CVS. Am looking to swap one out for a growth/value holding, perhaps in Industrials (maybe LMT?). Was thinking AZN would be my odd one out. Would appreciate your thoughts on best approach for long term buy and hold portfolio given the 5 holdings noted here. Thanks.

Q: Hi team,
After watching CCIV sail away into the sunset, I have to wonder what other big SPAC deals are in the works? Do you have any insights as to enable you to recommend to me an early stage SPAC that hasn't blasted off 400% yet, that a guy could possibly look at buying into for hopes of hitting a homerun? It seems every SPAC that is hitting them market is going up 2-400% so far. Who knows what CCIV will be up to if/ when the Lucid deal comes to fruitition. I know the risks of the SPAC, would be for some speculative investing. Thanks!
Shane.

Q: I have substantial holdings in the US technology sector. The only stock underwater is Unity Software. Would you continue to hold or shift the funds to one of CRWD, SE, MU or PLTR in which I have only partial positions? Which would be your second choice if I were to divide the funds?
Thank you.

Q: I hold both these companies.

Mastercard has been pretty flat for the last 12 months. Do you see things picking up significantly for them when people start booking tickets for flights, hotels, concerts and Disney Land or will papal process more of these payments as well. PayPal has grown to a size in my portfolio that I wouldn't want to add to it. I know Mastercard isn't a "weed" but can't decide if it's a "flower" that could use some water ;)

Would you add to Mastercard (or maybe start a position in Visa) today or look for something else? (In the payments space I also have a full position in SQ)

....PayPal passed Mastercard in market cap today. (mind blown emoji)

Cheers

Q: Hi 5i, BNGO
This company is not currently in your data base. I am considering a 1/2 or 1/4 position is this genomics company and would like your opinion on 2- 3 year hold.
Is this a company you would have any interested in at the current price. Why/why not.
Any suggestions for similar strong candidates in this space.
Thx
Jim

Q: Hello 5i,

I have enough money to open a new 1% position in a portfolio that is intentionally a little overweight in tech, but otherwise well-diversified. I currently don't have any pureplay cybersecurity companies or any pureplay fintech/payments companies (although I do own MELI, STNE and SE). Which of these two sectors would you invest in first. I was thinking CRWD for cybersecurity and SQ or PYPL for fintech/payments.

Thanks
