Q: Dear 5i,
Here are the stocks I have left to purchase from your Balanced portfolio, can you please place these in order or how attractive they are at this time for a long-term hold? Also, is QQQ a good starting point for US focus holding in a registered account? Thank you.

Q: Bought BAD a few months back as a recovery play and have done ok however recent results cause me to question the growth prospects. Should I continue to hold or sell and add to my existing positions in SIS, NFI, QSR and MG. All good recovery plays in my opinion.
Thanks

Q: I’ve held BAD since it’s .un days so done well with it over the long term, and was fortunate to be able to add to my position last March taking it to 3.5% in a well diversified RRSP. I’m looking for some decent growth out of it, however, and I’m not sure this one has that over the next couple of years unless oil activity fires up again in NA (fat chance). Does BAD have potential to benefit from from all the recovery infrastructure spending and is that a catalyst worth holding/adding to BAD?

Thanks

Q: Good evening, as 2020 comes to an end it has been an eventful year for stocks. Can you recommend 10 beaten down canadian stocks that are value companies that got the short end of the stick this year? Canadian stocks that have all the criteria you look for ( strong balance sheet, good management, low debt etc ) and will recover as Covid runs it course over the next 6 month or so. I am a more risk tolerant investor with over 25 years before retirement.

Q: I do not own these 8 companies from the balanced portfolio and I do have some money to invest. I already have a reasonably well balanced portfolio (except overweight in tech). Dividends are nice but not that important. Is there one you would consider a particularly interesting buy with a timeline of 5 years? Could you rank the top3?

Q: It appears that in post Covid times, infrastructure money will be doled out to get the economy rolling again. It may be time to sell some tech or at least trim. I am currently over 40% in tech. It’s been great but I realize more diversification is important.
I know that you’ll recommend BAD and likely STN but what else may be on the horizon to consider?Thanks

Q: Hi team

I have a small position, it was losing money (hoping to generate some dividends with hope of a small capital gain)
now
this stock is shooting up like a rocket
I am aware that in the last quarter
earnings beat expectations (was suppose to be a loss)

would you say there is enough momentum to keep on going for another 5-10%?
was there a tremendous amount of short position from those hedge fund managers?
looking for reasons to keep on holding it or sell to take a small profit

Buy more, hold or sell?

thanks !
Michael
