Q: Good afternoon, Peter & Co.
I am planning on diversifying my portfolio outside of North America and I am considering Alibaba and Tencent. May I have your comments on these companies and the timeliness of an immediate purchase.
With appreciation,

Q: Hello 5i, I'm a growth oriented investor with a broad diversified portfolio.
I have a full position in Transforce (TFII). I'm currently down 15% and thinking what I can currently do to increase my overall rate of return. In your professional opinion, would you suggest myself to sell TFII, take the loss and redeploy and invest in a similar company such as CNR? and or, invest in something in a different sector that would possibly produce more growth such as AMZN, BABA, GOOGL, for and within an investment time frame of 2 years. Please feel free and suggest any companies that you would recommend now for growth. Thank you for your excellent service.

Q: I am trying to identify the best E-Commerce to buy now for solid growth. You commented 6 months ago on Stamps.com (stmp-q). How have your views evolved since then on this company and how would you compare it to Priceline (pcln-q), Mercado Libre (meli-q), Netflix (nflx-q)and Alibaba (baba-q) ?
Very grateful for your views,

Jacques

Q: Hi 5i Team,
Ever since Donald Trump announced his candidacy for the job of U.S. President, he has repeatedly made disparaging remarks about China. I'm starting to wonder if all this trash talk might not cause investors to dispose of any holdings they might have in Chinese companies.
I currently own shares in Alibaba but I fear that they might follow the same pattern as Boeing and Northrop Grumman did in the aftermath of negative tweets by the President-Elect in recent weeks.
Do you see this as a likely possibility? Should I sell as a precaution?
