Q: First, want to thank you for the service provided over the years. I recently reached a financial milestone (another 0 at the end of the net worth statement at age 33) and 5i played a massive part. Biggest elements were the great stock picks (obviously) which allowed me to outperform the market quite a bit, as well as the reassurance to stay long when the market has a fit.

My question is can you provide a list of top picks for long term growth that are less associated with AI. I'm heavy in AI, want to stay overweight, however would like to slowly diversify a bit over time. Open to a mix of risk levels.

Q: Do you see many blatantly mispriced equities in the North American market today?Granted there have been strong price pullbacks in several sectors but could some of this just be multiple contraction on overpriced stocks that investors were previously chasing to overpriced levels?

I'd like to ask if you have 2 ideas of Mega or Large Cap US Technology stocks that are blatantly mispriced (too cheap to explain) and also the same for 2 Non Tech US or Canadian stocks Large Caps.

Thx for your help.

Q: Four oil companies make up 30 percent of my portfolio. Purchased during covid and have had big gains in all four. The yield on cardinal based on cost base is 22 percent. This is stupid I know but if not for these four my portfolio is a disaster. It’s basically kept me flat while the tech sector has taken a dive. Should I start to exit some of the oil positions and where do you go if the majority of the 5i favourites are all ready owned ?

Q: Could you please comment on the potential future growth and risk levels for each of these? Are any at risk of falling out of favour? Are there others here or in the US that you would recommend as 'better' or perhaps more reliable stocks to hold? I would be fine with US recommendations irrespective of size.

Thanks for your input.

Q: Good Day,

I have just started adding in to my cash account, which now has me considering tax ramifications. Since I am not looking to pay MORE taxes, what are some names you would suggest for a longer term hold with no or really low dividends and a long runway for growth. I have listed PNG GRID GRGD VNP and CLS. Would you add a couple other names and rank them with a comment on their preospects.

Thanks!

James
