Q: Hello! I'm a recent subscriber to 5i and liking what I see so far! I have a favorable view on the tech sector and own CQQQ and BABA. Any thoughts on these names or sector in general? Any other names that might be a good fit (besides Amazon)? I was also thinking VB would be a good way to play the tech and financial sector at the same time. How long has it being in the growth portfolio? Any other suggestions regarding niche banks?

Q: About to sell this real loser, however I do respect & appreciate your opinion. Have owned it for nearly 3 yrs & while rising slightly at one point during a momentary pop-up in Jan-Feb of this year, it has now dropped 25%. Before dumping, I thought you might have a contrarian position as its book V is nearly $8.50. Thank you.

Q: You seem nonplussed about VersBbank's earnings. The market, on the other hand, is very plussed indeed, any thoughts? Would you still buy today? Or are there danger signals? Or if it is a buy would you wait a couple of days? Thank-you again.

Q: Hello Peter and Team,

I am trying to keep positions to a reasonable amount (less than 40). I like both these companies for good upside. If you can have only One, which one would it be, and why? What are the pros and cons of each.

Thank you,

Wes

Q: Hi, RHT and VB were added to 5i Balanced and Growth portfolios, respectively, last week. Does it mean that the risk/growth profile of Versa Bank ( Growth) is higher when compared to Relique Health ( Balanced ) ? Any rationale, why this and not vice-versa.
Also, I could not find much information about Versa Bank in Q&A section. Could you please provide some more details/comments about this co. Thanks
