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

Q: Hi 5i Team,

Beginning of the year, time for portfolio maintenance/tuning operations, my doubts/focus is on these 3 US titles : BIG, CTSH, CHRW.

Would like to know your call (HOLD/SELL) and brief appreciation on these. In SELL cases (if any), could you please provide US market replacement suggestion other than (already owned) : GOOG, SBUX, V, BRK-B, DG, CPRT, KMX.

My portfolio is in registered account, holding period would be 5-10 years, aiming for quality company with good mid-long term growth potential.

Feel free to deduct as many points required.
Thank you for your excellent services,

Q: I bought a smallish position in MU after Peter had it as a top pick on BNN last year. It has done well thank you. I always considered it as a trade rather than a long term hold. Your BNN comments today confirmed this. I am aware of your views on market timing. What conditions or at what point would it be best to trigger a sale or partial sale? I hold it in an RRSP so here are no tax consequences. Thanks very much, Frank

Q: Is there any way I can buy shares in this co? I tried in USA investment account, no go. Is there another company producing batteries using hydrogen instead of lithium? I already bought shares in lithium battery producer BLDP. It would be nice to have both types of producers .
This is for entertainment not what one would like at as secure investment .

Q: Hi 5i Team,

I am looking at APTX Aptinyx Inc., a Biopharmaueutical Co., and am thinking to initiate a small position of it.

They are still losing money and did a financing at 3.00 in mid January, but share jumped up to 4.60 already last Friday.

What is your thought and outlook of this company? Is it still speculative ?

Always thank you for your professional advice.

Q: Hi 5i
Recent takeovers have left me with uninvested funds. I'm looking to re-invest that cash into income generating (US stocks preferably) undervalued positions providing 3 - 5 % dividends.
What would you suggest I have a look at ?
Also, PA shows that I'm light on utilities and telecoms but the suggestions don't need to be limited to these sectors.
Thanks
Mike
