Q: About 25% of our portfolio is in US stocks - very tech heavy (APPS, CRWD, MSFT, MTTR, NVDA, QCOM, TEAM, U) with only XYL as a non-tech holding. I would like to add GOOG, BKNG but would prefer not to transfer more CD$ to US just at the moment. Would appreciate your thoughts on cashing my XYL (down about 10%) in order to buy GOOG ?
Also, my NVDA and QCOM are at about 4.5% each of total CD/US $ portfolio, with good profit. Would you trim a bit of both to invest in BKNG or leave well enough alone for now !
As always, many thanks.

Q: Can you please comment on this company. The stock keeps falling while the company is ready to launch their new SUV. There is a news that it is heavily shorted off-exchange (dark pool). Is this even possible?

Q: Can you please comment on earnings. Was there anything that stood out in the conference call (either good or bad). Portfolio Analytics notes I should increase my exposure to consumer defensive and US holdings. Would you recommend starting a position in COST within an RRSP? Lastly, from an educational stand point, what metrics/factors (financial and non-financial) are good to look at when exploring/assessing a business such as Costco.

Q: Hi!
My question is around what to do with high growth, unprofitable technology companies that were once huge winners. If one has a small portion allocated to these companies, does it make sense to hold and one day things could turn and these stocks can gain again. There is so much talk to switch to value/cyclical/materials and that trade can last for a very long time. My guess is you favour diversification which I have, but of course wonder if these unprofitable tech names can go down another 50 percent and will they ever recover?? Which of the high growth unprofitable tech names would you be adding to or would you only add to profitable tech like Meta, Amazon, Google, etc...
Thank you!

Q: I am looking to find some software stocks with excellent Net Revenue Retention rates and strong revenue growth that should make for bounce candidates/long-term compounders if the tech market turns. What are some of your favourite CAD and USD names with NRR above 110% and revenue growth of at least 30%?

Do you like any of SMAR, ASAN or MNDY?

Thanks

Q: Good day. I think I made a rookie mistake. A number of months ago I bought 40 shares of Novax, based on emotion and speculation believing its protein spike vaccine would fill the void for vaccine hesitancy and boosters. I am now showing a 56% loss. This stock represents about 3% of my portfolio. Should I sell and take the loss or hang on hoping it turns around upon FDA approval? Thanks for your opinion.

Q: Good day 5i,

I hold SEMR and VEEV and both reported recently. I would appreciate your analysis of their earnings reports as well as what you see going forward for both.

I have a long-term outlook and a high tolerance for volatility, if the growth story is intact.

Thank you for your insights.
