Investment Q&A

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

Q: I am now over 7% with SHOP, thinking of trimming back to 4% or so (not the first time I have trimmed back, thanks 5I!) and buying more ROKU to which I am currently at 2.5%. I am heavy in tech and a little low in communication as is although I am not too concerned with the sector balance at this point. I also do not mind holding to 8%

Q: I am wondering what your 5-6 best TFSA contrib ideas are for where we are in this market. I am kinda a guy who favours a thematic approach to investing as opposed to buying a roll-up-er like CSU or ATD. I'm looking to buy a name today that is good & getting better and hopefully one that will bear a lot of fruit in 3-5 years. Happy New Year!

Q: I took a 1/2 position in ROKU a couple of weeks ago intending to hold for the long term. I am well represented in the sector already, but it was more of a growth move with some US cash I had sitting there. I'm now down 10% and the CFO has just stepped down, so I'm wondering if I should just cut my loss and wait to see what it does in the next few months, or if you think there is still good reason to hold. Thak-you!

Q: My wife and I are interested in growth possibilities for our 2020 TFSA contributions. Thanks to your previous advice we’ve done very well on SHOP, LSPD, KXS, GSY, CSU. We’re solely interested in tax-free growth in our TFSA accounts and have investing balance covered in other accounts. Considering positive momentum, which of these would you recommend adding to for the most torque?
Alternatively, could you recommend 2-3 other picks you could get behind at this time.

Q: In my TFSA I have had a nice run with SQ and was thinking of selling it out and "starting over" with a couple or three of the above listed stocks that you have recently identified as having high potential ( with the same? amount of risk that came with buying SQ a couple of years back) What do you see as the pros and cons of such a move and if implemented which 2 or 3 would you chooses at this time?
Thanks,
Terry

Q: This name came up last week. I was interested in it but didn’t buy it because I was worried that smart TVs would make the Roku devices unnecessary. Is that not a concern? I see that Roku also now sells smart TVs so perhaps that’s the answer. Also, how does one know when a stock like this has become over valued? How much run way do you see in this name for future appreciation? Thanks as always.

Q: Cons Disc [CD] portfolio target is 9%; current holdings 1.5% ea AMZN, SHOP [technically IT, but now more similar to AMZN? if not, then only 3% allocated], and CMCSA. 5+ yrs growth goal. To add and/ or new buys?
1. e-commerce: AMZN, SHOP, others?
2. retail watch list [WList]: advise re LULU, NKE, SBUX, others?
3. TV/ connected WList: DIS, ROKU & TLRA [both IT, but ultimately tied to Consumer spending]
4. Or, XLY and/ or TDB 424 Fund [Entertainment & Communication holds some Cons Disc, but not 100%] or other.
This is a mix but would appreciate your advice with sector allocation.
Thx
