Investment Q&A

Q: Hello Team,

Are you able to rank the above companies for the greatest appreciation over the next 3 years in your opinion. Thanks.

Q: Hi guys,

In a balanced portfolio, when would you trim Brookfield (Bn) above 8%, 7%???

Thanks

Jim

Q: Dear Peter et al:

Happy Healthy Peaceful and Prosperous New Year to all the members of your excellent team. Including the lovely folks at CMS/MF Update!

My first question of the year!

A really "tough" and bit unfair question!
How can anyone choose a "favourite" child amongst their four terrific "kids":)
But here it goes.

Which is your favourite "child" for this year's TFSA contribution. For a "buy and forget" period!
CSU or LMN or TOI or.....BN :)
I have them in varying amounts in different portfolios!
All of them are up though CSU and it's "family" have lost a lot of their lustre.

Look forward to another good year with your team.

Make Portfolio Analytics "bit more personal", then I will come on board there as well :)

Q: What's a good 3-5 year hold in a TFSA, Canadian funds only. Looking for capital appreciation. for young adults who will use the money beyond this holding period, likely.

Q: Can you explain why BN would be considered a peer group for gold, silver and copper companies

Q: Greetings,
From a response from your office, I interpreted these five were suggested as still being good opportunities at present day prices. Did you mean full position or tranches etc?

Like many, I'm terrified of the impending pullback, especially with Tech names and what if prices fall by more than eg: 15%?

Secondly, what is your opinion on what might happen to the market, in the short term, if Trump keels over and dies?

With thanks, A

Q: What is holding Brookfield Corpn from being included in S&P 500 ?

Thanks

Q: Good afternoon,

I feel that I have constructed a well balanced equity portfolio of between 20-25 stocks, thanks in large part to you and your team.

I have identified the following as core positions, where each one represents between a 3-5% weighting:

RY
GWL
ENB
FTS
AEM
BN
NVDA
GOOG
AMZN

I know that there could be many additions to this list. But assuming I hold my "top picks" to these names, do you have any immediate concerns?

Thanks as always.

Q: Hi 5i Guys, Could you please rank the noted stocks in order of your expected growth in the next 3 + years? Thank you!
Happy New Year!

Q: I have 12 thousand to add to my tfsa what stocks would you recommend.

Q: Happy New Year!
Do you think the current share price of Brookfield (BN) already reflects their push into AI‑related infrastructure — power, land, data‑center buildouts — as well as the upcoming NVIDIA‑aligned chip and data‑center initiatives? I’m also curious whether the recent partnership with Figure, where Brookfield will host and support humanoid robotics training, is meaningfully priced in.
One thing I’ve noticed is that Brookfield’s revenue and EPS seem to jump around — up one year, down the next — even though the company appears to be growing overall. I’m trying to understand whether this volatility is just a function of their business model or something to be more cautious about.
From your perspective, what would be a reasonable entry point for the stock? And if you were to give Brookfield an overall rating (A, A‑, B, etc.), where would you place it? It seems to be a favorite among many investors, so I’d really value your thoughts. Thanks.

Q: Happy New Year!

I am looking at where to deploy my TFSA contribution for this year and would be interested to hear your thoughts. My largest position is BN at close to 5% so I am thinking of adding to my smaller positions listed above. If this were your portfolio, would you add this year's $7000 to one stock, or add smaller amounts to two or three stocks? Or, would you only add to BN as it is still at a sleep at night percentage?

Thank you!

Q: Dear 5i
What would be your order of preference for the above noted stocks with regards to earnings growth over the next 3-4 years within either a non registered acct or a TFSA ?
Thanks

Q: In my TFSA, I have a double position in BN, and full positions in POW, SIS, PPL, CSH.UN, TRI and BAM. I also have half positions in AFN (which I know is not your favourite) and DSG. Would you add to one/some of these (which?) or add something different. After my 2026 contribution, I will have enough cash to about a half position. I prefer to consider Canadian stocks for this account.

Thanks for you help.

Q: Out of the following 10 stocks - what would be your top 5 right now for future growth.

ASML, COST, MELI, MKL, WSO, ATD, BN, CNR, CSU, X

Q: I would like to contribute an existing holding from my non-registered account into my TFSA in early 2026, but am unsure about which holding to contribute. Which of these do you think makes the most sense to move into my TFSA based on potential upside/income? I have a long-term 10+ year hold period. Thanks!

Q: If you could only buy 5 stocks in North America disregarding balance what would they be?

Q: We are looking to inject more growth into our TFSAs - can accept reasonable degree of risk. Looking for concentrated list 10 stocks for 3-5 year hold.

Q: Hi I hold the following positions
CSU overweight
CLS overweight
GOOG overweight
BN overweight
GLXY
NBIS
NVDA
ISRG
AXON
SHOP
AMAZON
HOOD
VOO
URI
PNG

Would you add to existing positions or choose to buy others?

Please list your top 5 other stocks, and a brief reason for each ? Cnd or US

Thank you

Q: hello 5i:
the Brookfield companies listed above make up close to 9% of our holdings. In your opinion, is that overweighting one entity too much? Any of the companies could be traded, but finding a comparable, or "better" company in that particular sector eg. utilities, financials, etc; is difficult. Your thoughts, please.
thanks
