Q: You have the choice to invest in one of these companies. Which one do you choose and why?

Q: I have these companies in my high revenue portfolio. It has been performing well. In these changing times, I find myself switching to companies that have high revenue growth and will not be affected by closure. Any expert thoughts or input would be appreciated.

FRPT - Freshpet is not in your database.

Q: Good morning everyone. Would you beable to give me a few ideas of value stocks and also growth stocks that will be moving in this market. If you have time possibly in both Canadian and US mkarkets. Enjoy reading all your articles. Thank you for all your insight.

Q: Can you please compare these companies in what they do, their prospects and financial strength. Would you have a preference or buy a bit of each? Use what credits are appropriate. Thanks!

Q: Hi Team,
I am holding TWLO, and down 12% on it as of today. It has been showing some strength lately with the other tech names, but perhaps not as much as some others. What do you think of this companies growth potential? I am wondering if I should hold it, or if you would recommend switching the holding into a different US tech growth stock that you are much more convinced of (was noticing ROKU or DOCU)? I currently already hold NOW, AYX, CRM, SQ,TTD,FB. Thanks for your advice.

Q: What are some of your favorite US growth names right now? I am a younger investor with some money to deploy. I have a 20+ year time horizon. I am not too worried about sector allocation due to having a defined benefits pension when I eventually retire (20+ years).

I am also wondering what US stocks 5i staff are currently buying and why.

Thanks for all your advice. I read the questions daily. Your support through these tough times (my first as an investor) has been beyond insightful and finding I am getting my financial education through your words of wisdom and advice. I keep speaking highly of you to my friends looking to get into investing and am encouraging they subscribe to your service as it is beyond exceptional.

Thanks for all that you all do! Hope you and yours are safe and healthy during these tough times.

Q: Good morning,

I have some cash to add to 3 new US technology positions. I am looking for growth, and I am comfortable with volatility. Looking out 5 years what would be your favourites from the list above at current valuations. Any concerns with the list above? I already own MSFT, SQ, RPD, DOCU, AYX. If you have other suggestions please do share. Thanks in advance.

Q: I own all of the above stocks in the 'growth' portion of a well balanced portfolio. I don't need to sell any and the volatility doesn't bother me. Are there any I should sell because their fundamentals have changed in this correction? Any I should add too?

Q: Hi,

I have a small position in Sangoma and am considering selling and adding to another tech company. Going forward however do you consider the macro space in which Sangoma operates to be a driver for growth or would you see other tech companies with greater potential and if so, a few names would be helpful. I recognize Sangoma is a small company.

Thanks

Q: Hi Team! As more more and more people are working from home, cloud based software companies, cyber security companies will benefit as I think this will become a new reality as companies realize they can save money. In Internet communication and hardware companies out there that will see an increase of their services and products are there any names you would recommend? I thank you in advance. Sam

Q: Please provide your analysis of this company. Is it a buy?

Q: Dear 5i
I'm looking to add a higher growth stock in my TFSA and was wondering which of the following will do better in terms of earnings over the next 1-2 years ......CAE , WSP or BYD .
I was also debating between TEAM and NOW for the TFSA as US possibilities . I would appreciate your thoughts .
Thanks

Q: Hello Team,
I am overweight in technology growth names and have been caught in this “sector rotation” from growth to value. My question is do I now hold steady and ride out the storm, or trim back my growth holdings and switch to value? I am a buy and hold investor typically and believe the names I am invested in are best in class in what they do, and believe the way the world is going that technology will continue to advance and should be where the biggest growth is now and into the foreseeable future. So, with the names listed do I buy more , hold, or sell?Thanks for your input on the matter.

Q: Hello who are Now’s main competitors? Can you speak about their competitors respective revenue growth rates? What are NOw’s main risks?

Q: Hi Peter, if I had to buy one today which one would it be and why? Thanks. Alnoor

Q: Hello team,

Would you please compare and contrast these two SAAS companies. I appreciate it if you can comment on their moat and and market as well as competition, quality of business, current valuation, momentum, and financial strength.

I know you like them both, but I have money only for one and I am wondering which one has more torque and a brighter future, for it is current growth is going to only accelerate further.

Thank you very much indeed for being the referee here.

Q: Hello 5i,
How would you rank these "cloud kings" for growth over the next few years?
Do you have a preference of one or two over the others?
Thank you
Dave

Q: Hello,

With the recent positive earnings from Facebook and ServiceNow, would you recommend buying at this point? I'm also a long time holder of Visa (stock is down based on yesterdays results), would it also be a good idea to purchase MA at this time as well?

Thanks,
Raj

Q: Hi 5i team,

Back in May 2018 you answered a question about these 2 companies, CRM, NOW.
You preferred CRM at the time.
Based on their most recent financial results (released Jan 30/31) and forward guidance, do you still prefer CRM?
AMcCreath (BNN) indicated this am that several SaaS related companies seem to be firing on all cylinders....based on Q4 earnings at least. These 2 were mentioned.
What would be your top 5 SaaS companies, either US and/or Canada listed?
I do prefer investing in this revenue type model as it kinda guarantees 85%+ quarterly revenue....plus any new business clients.
I already own DSG as part of this thesis.

Keep up the fantastic team work!

Cheers,
SteveMc

Q: wondering which companies have the largest runway for growth out of these? I have a very very long time horizon
