Investment Q&A

Q: Would you add to shop here?

Q: Does this selloff in tech concern you at all to take down the broader market? Seeing big down moves lately in tech, such as SHOP, GOOGL, NVDA, SMCI, VRT, etc... Tech is my largest weighting for sector, should we be repositioning at all or how would you approach this to maintain profits. I've had a very good run, but hate take the stairs up and then seeing the elevator go down fast. Thanks!

Q: Most tech stocks are rising ( Monday ) , SHOP just continue going down . Any news ? Thanks a lot

Q: In spite of Nvidia’s recent drop, I still find myself quite “tech heavy”, and I’m sure I’m not alone! Thinking of trimming, how would you rank these: NVDA, AAPL, AMZN, GOOGL, MSFT, SHOP.

Q: I almost gag a putting these two in the same question. Could you please provide a comparison of compensation for the two CEOs?

Q: Hi, Any insights as to why the share price of SHOP is trading at a much higher forward P/E and forward P/FCF than all of the magnificent 7 with the exception of TSLA? As of end of trading Jul 15 this is the data I have:

TSLA 88.54
SHOP 62.2
NVDA 43.95
AMZN 40.32
MSFT 35.9
AAPL 33.86
META 24.2
GOOG 24.1

Compare Forward P/FCF with Mag 7:
TSLA 133.02
SHOP 65.22
MSFT 48.2
NVDA 50.24
AMZN 35.03
AAPL 30.43
META 27.6

Q: Hi,
After reading disturbing reports about Shopify's business practices, such as not enforcing its own acceptable use policy against its merchants selling nazi-related products, and its COO's board-level involvement with a far right wing media group, do you have any suggestions for ethical growth companies in Canada or the US to replace this name in my portfolio?
Thank you. Michael

Q: Any news for the big jump this morning ( Tuesday ). Thanks a lot.

Q: Hi Group can you please rate in order of your preference for short term trading not to buy and hold . Give me the ones with the most potential to grow. Most of the ones I have identified have been in the tank lately and should be ripe for some sort of recovery. Also if you have any good ideas that fit the criteria please feel free to add/rate the opportunity as you see it.

Q: I was in a Lululemon store in Tokyo (Roppongi neighbourhood) last month. It was a smaller store but very busy and the staff were great...

I have a full position in SHOP. This stock is more expensive than LULU but the growth is also much higher.

Could you compare the growth and opportunity potential for these two consumer companies both short and long term.

As of today and from a strictly growth perspective would you overweight one over the other?

Q: Hello Team,

I was wondering if you could rank the attached 12 companies from 1 - 12. I have some money to deploy in my cash account and already own all 12 in my TFSA/RRSP. Will be a 3 year hold.

No worries on size, risk or industry, looking for best returns only.

Thanks!

Q: What’s happening with SHOP? It’s spinning it’s wheels and slowly losing traction. What will it take to get the price moving up? When does it next report and what does 5i expect? Is it still one of your favourites or is it gradually moving to the sidelines?

Q: Please comment on the recent big price swing in SHOP , HPS . I want to add either LMN or TOI , which one offer better return ? Thanks for your excellent service.

Q: I hold the above positions in approx equal weights in a non-registered account from which I need to raise some cash for a home project. If you were to sell entire positions, in what order would you proceed, first to be sold through to tenth (ie which positions do you see as having the most potential yet to be realized and would be later in your sell order)? Alternatively, are there some positions you would sell outright while trimming as needed from others, and if so, which ones would be sells - again in what order - and which would be trims? Many thanks.

Q: Would you consider the CEO compensation package to be excessive or is this just business similar to TSLA and Musk? Thx

Q: what are your best ideas for recent, and for no reason, significant dips on stock prices for great companies? (US or CAN)

Q: I got nervous with SHOP after holding for a few years and sold it a couple of months ago - I'm looking at it again - is it a hold, buy or strong buy today for a long-term hold?

Q: Hi 5i!
Piggy backing off one of my last questions on building a solid portfolio from scratch through diversification et al(THANK YOU!). Knowing you can’t get personal; looking for some mid to long term hold recommendations (either US or CA) in the following sectors with growth upside in mind as I have significant cash (250K+) sitting in my RRSP doing nothing. I am currently quite top heavy in Tech – and own the above in registered and non-registered accounts.

If you have several recos for a sector, can you please rank in order of preference. Additionally, if there is a sector that can be put to the side with the idea of prioritizing others, I would be keen to know. Also open to add ETF's to represent a sector. As always, thanks a million. I love your service.

Q: Whats popping this?
