Q: So I had SHOP at a full 5% position in my portfolio and now with all the carnage it's less than 2%. So my question would be - does it make sense to average down from the ridiculously high price I paid to bring the position up a bit or just let it grow back (if ever)? Am I just throwing good money after bad in trying to make up the loss? I do like SHOP and intend to hold it for many years. Thanks!

Q: Good morning everyone at 5i! You have always said that you can’t time the market. I am going on the premise that the market is close to the bottom, and it is time to slowly start to add some names to the portfolio and to add to existing ones. Could you please suggest 5 growth and 5 income stocks ( US or Canadian) which you consider good buys at this point on time? Cheers, Tamara

Q: Could I please have your thoughts on an article in the Globe and Mail (july 4)with regards to CEO compensation in particular Shopify CEO with more than $25 million in salary and another $25 million in stock options in a year when the stock has lost 75% of its value. On a positive note I see CSU Mr. Leonard still owns more than 1 billion dollars in stock with no stock options.

Q: I have an interesting question regarding value vs growth. I don't have exposure to MSFT and still feel bad for not having bought it in the 2009 crash. With a 5 year time frame please rank the above from top stock to least stock performance (prediction, prediction). If you were to sell one of the above to buy MSFT which would it be?

Thank you

Yves

Q: Hi folks
If not owned anymore, should one re enter the stock now or before the split on the 29th? What weighting would an investor with an appetite for growth as part of a balanced portfolio start at? Or should we wait for the dust to settle?
Should we buy in US or Canadian?
I did very very well with SHOP in the past....thanks to you.

Q: I sold these earlier these in a panic , to avoid losing what was left of a fantastic profit : I am OK on the 30 day rule . Technicals seem to be hooking upward and this appears to be an opportunity . I suppose repurchasing is considered bottom fishing but they pass the "would you BUY this stock today?" question .... so would you ?
