Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Can you rank the stocks best to worst in your opinion. These are the stock s that are in my technology sector (17% weighting). Would you add, swap or remove any of them? My portfolio holdings/thoughts are very similar to your BE Portfolio. Thank you and great job.

Q: EFN:
Do you see anything that would explain share fluctuations last couple of days? Is this someone establishing a position in the stock?

SHOP:
Can you compare current institutional position in the stock to historical data? Would that account for the meteoric rise of the stock?

Q: Hi Team,
I believe the short interest in Shopify is now about 4.77% of the US float. Do you have any guidance on when the short interest can become large enough that the stock could become the victim of a short attack? I also know that SHOP has a fair bit of cash on hand and no debt, which may help protect it. Any thoughts you have about how a short interest in SHOP, or more generally any company, might become debilitating for a stock's price would be appreciated.
Thank you, Michael

Q: My portfolio is a combination of the Balanced and Growth model portfolios. I'm torn between your advice to "let winners run" and your advice on keeping sectors reasonably balanced. Tech is up and energy is down....so in theory, I should be selling some Shopify and Kinaxis and buying more Whitecap and Raging River. SHOP and KXS are not yet over 5% of my portfolio so I don't need to sell them to reduce risk. My instincts tell me to let the winners keep running until I see some life in the energy stocks, even if that means being very light in that sector. Your advice, please. Thanks!

Q: The accelerating economic trend towards online commerce is one I feel is woefully underrepresented in my current portfolio. How would you suggest I address this today? Buy AMZN? Buy SHOP? Would half positions make sense given the strong runs these stocks have had?
