Investment Q&A

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

Q: I’ve held Dollarama for a few years now and have a small loss while other stocks in similar space like Five Below performed very well. Is it time to make a switch? I know you generally like DOL but every time it gets close to my break even it drops again. How would you compare DOL and FIVE?

Q: I have a target allocation of 40-45% for total portfolio US exposure. Which ETFs would you suggest (either currency) to form the core of this allocation? Could you also please provide a handful of individual US picks to supplement. Aiming for long term growth with 20+ yr time horizon. Thanks!

Q: Hi,
I also held on to the LTRX shares that I rec'd via ITC because they have been in business for a long time, their products are in a diverse range of industries, the SaaS and IoT aspects and a big backlog. I interpret the backlog as partly due to factors beyond their control so this could be a negative.
You stated in a previous answer that good growth is expected this year. Do you still see good growth and what is your take on the recent results? Thank you.

Q: Hi there,

Could you please provide 8-10 companies, preferably in the US that are in the AI and machine learning category and that you think have great technology and a large potential market? No need for in depth analysis so you can keep it brief. I'm looking for a place to start more in depth research. Much appreciated!

PS - I sent a question in awhile back that is probably still in queue as it asked for info on 6 companies that are not mainstream. No rush but please let me know if you didn't get it.

Q: The U.S. Federal Trade Commission has opened an in-depth probe into Nvidia Corp's agreement to acquire Arm Ltd. Alphabet Inc, Qualcomm Inc and Microsoft Corp have complained to U.S. antitrust regulators about the deal. Arm Holdings supplies intellectual property to Apple, Qualcomm and a host of others for chips that power nearly all of the world's smartphones.
Should I be concerned? I was of the opinion that this deal is key to NVDA's growth not to mention the global shortage of chips.

Q: Hello,
In the consumer discretionary sector would you consider COTY or ULTA to be attractive? Which one would you pick?

COTY was an offshoot of PG I believe..TOI is from CSU..Does Mark Leonard have any say in the management of TOI? If Topicus were to follow in CSU's footsteps (framework) they would do very well. Are there any such precedents where offshoots have done very well? Why do companies sell of portions of the company? Thanks and happy family day. No rush to answer these questions. Cheers, Shyam
