Q: Hi 5iResearch Team,

I have started a position on SHOP since this past January and have been adding to my position since. I am currently up by about 100% on my total holdings and now it accounts for about 5% of my total portfolio. I am debating if I should take some money off SHOP and put the proceed on something else (preferably with a dividend). May I please have your thoughts on this and if you can also recommend a company to buy with the proceed from the sale of SHOP should I decide to trim my holdings on SHOP>

Best Regards,

Q: Hi Team,
I own Shopify and Knight as my two main growth holdings. SHOP has blown the doors off and I am willing to be patient with GUD. As a possible re-balancing move, I am considering trimming SHOP and looking for a third growth company. I know you've suggested several alternatives in the Q&A before, but I am looking for a similarly high-quality selection. I already own OTEX and want to avoid the energy sector. Can you please name the top three Canadian growth stocks that you would suggest for further consideration as long-term holds that are not on the Venture exchange? Perhaps Kinaxis as one? Many thanks, Michael

Q: Hi 5i,

In rebalancing my portfolio, I find that I am sadly lacking in tech stocks. At present, I have: CSU 4%, KXS 1.5%, Shop 0.4%. Could you suggest options to bring the total up to about 15% and designating whether they would be better suited for an RRIF or TFSA account? As a senior, I should be more conservative but, at the same time, I can stand some risk.

With thanks.

Q: Hello, I am thinking of lightening up on SHOp where I am almost at 9% and buying AAPl as a replacement where I already have a half position. I would appreciate your thoughts on this. I am not quite sure why Apple is raising money in the form of bonds..while it has a lot of cash.
But the next version of iphones are much anticipated..I get this insight from my teenage children.cheers Shyam
