Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: In my US account, I hold Berkshire, Disney and MasterCard. I was thinking of selling one of these to free up some USD to purchase CRWD for more growth. Which one would you suggest selling if you were in this position?

Or, if it were possible, would you suggest converting some CAD to USD to purchase CRWD, and keep the US stocks that I have already?
Thanks
Robert

Q: Hi 5i
Currently considering SHW for 1/2 position and a 2 year hold. Its down slightly off its high and offers small dividend.
What is your current opinion on this company going forward and would you consider taking a position at current price? Why /why not?
Would you consider the announced upcoming 3 for 1 stock split as potential catalyst?
Thx
Jim

Q: In RRSP account I sold BEPC to decrease exposure to BEP (10%) and purchased ENPH to diversify. Plan was to hold long term. I see you like NEE and it is more diversified over renewables and pays a dividend. Does it make sense to sell ENPH to buy NEE since I don't really need an additional stock?

Q: My question is about how VIRT would do in a sell off or a bout of volatility. I have been reading that they would do well with increased volatility because trading frequency would increase. This would suggest that it might offer some hedging benefits. I am intrigued but skeptical of this thesis because in a serious drawdown my experience is that people just kind of sell everything and VIRT would hardly come up as something to hold on to unlike say gold or even a utility. Can I have your thoughts please? Thank-you.

Q: I hold a lot of CGI in a tax deferred account. I sense you have grown lukewarm towards the company, but are not icy (yet) . Am I reading you right? I am OK holding (after some trimming), but if I have understood your view correctly , my question follows. If I were to sell, what would you suggest as replacement. Infosys and Accenture came to mind, but I have overdone it collecting far too many technology businesses in tech. Would you please therefore name some of your top picks amongst companies that have global operations, and (preferably) some dividend growth. I thought of PG and UL but know nothing about them. Your top picks would be very helpful.
