Q: Good Day

I have journaled over 1/2 of my SHOP position to the US side of my TFSA. I was contemplating selling to accomplish a few things, lock in some gains(1300%), reduce my overall portfolio weight and to increase my US exposure. Considering a basket of TEAM,MICROSOFT,VISA and AMAZON to replace. What is your opinion on this move and would you recommend anything else to add?
Thank you for your continued guidance.

Q: Hi 5i Team!

How do you feel about Workiva these days? I last inquired a year ago and not many questions since so it seems under the radar. Like most others it is off approx 40% since it's highs.
They released Q1 numbers Apr 30. It appears they made good improvements vs Q1 2019.
They are only providing Q2 guidance (but are providing full year commentary). How does their guidance compare vs Q2 2019 results.
Would your favourite in the space still be AYX?

Cheers,
Steve

Q: Hey 5i,

Incredible stuff here. Thank you.
Looking for some confirmation.
With relative balance between growth and dividend stocks.
US listed inside an RRSP. Longterm holding. Looking to buy slowly on this wild ride or if and when it plummets.
Could you recommend a starter bundle 8-10 stocks.

Thanks again!

Q: Looking to add a US healthcare stock. I currently have PFE ( 6% weighing ) and was looking to add GILD. I'm concerned that there might be some overlap between PFE and GILD - if so, can you recommend and rank some others that I can look at ? Appreciate your comments.
Thanks

Q: A cure is a non-technical term so we need to be careful. Not to beat a dead horse (too much anyways)...Gilead is not offering a "cure" to Covid-19. Their drug was used as a treatment on USA patient 1 in Washington State, a young man who the doctors feared was dying from Covid-19. After receiving the injection he recovered almost immediately and was discharged from the hospital a few days later. Gilead's drug was entered into FDA trials and was shown to be effective for 30% of the people. While this percentage seems small the drug was considered so effective all the people on the placebo were put on the drug. Society is looking for a vaccine which will prevent people from getting Covid-19. This will likely prove more of a challenge to the health industry. Vaccines sometimes offer long term immunity but sometimes the immunity dies out - that is why we need Tetanus booster shots every 10 years or so. Dr. Fauci is on record as feeling a vaccine is "doable" by January 2021.
