Q: Good afternoon, could you please suggest ETFs that would cover the fields of artificial intelligence and for cybersecurity? I’m guessing these will be mostly for US companies? Thanks

Q: In your view, what are a few of the best ways for me to make investments in A.I. part of my portfolio over the next 15-20 years? This pertains to specific A.I. companies, but also indirect avenues of investment like ETF's, banks, etc, that have a stake in A.I. technology. I realize that this area is in flux and that you have no crystal ball here, but any guidance would be appreciated.

Q: Interesting article by Moez Mahrez; re Future Proofing your Portfolio from the special edition of the Money Saver. Wondering if there are any comparable ETF's in Canada, which one has the most upside potential, and why Mr. Mahrez would not have included one or more of these in the new growth ETF model Portfolio written in the most recent ETF update newsletter?
Thanks
Jeff

Q: Hello Peter and Team,
The article;Filling in Portfolio Gaps for a Canadian Fund Investor by Ryan Modesto makes the point that passive investing in the TSX 60 ETF is not proper diversification.

The 5i Balanced Equity Portfolio is actively managed with a strategy to offer a balanced diversified approach to sector, style, market capitalization and does not aim to mirror a broad index (BE Portfolio holds 15.62% in technologies and 2.41% in healthcare).

1. An investor with risk tolerance comfortable for the BE and a time frame of over 10 years would it be advisable to add two or three positions like ZQQ (US Technology sector exposure), ZUH (US Healthcare sector) and or ROBO (robotics and artificial intelligence)?

2. Would you consider these ETF not in line with the BE strategy and would create over diversification and or not to be in risk tolerance of the BE portfolio?

Thank for the great no conflict service that you provide, Ronald

Q: I am trying to gage if these stocks will surprise us in a positive way let’s say a 6 months to a year from now. In other words I am trying to think ahead of the curve.

-Considering how well Bitcoin has done will hive-tsx.v follow in its footsteps ?

-Solar. No one talks about it so much anymore.  Is this the calm before the storm.  Is this little known stock uge:tsx.v poised to do shout up?

 -Is ostk.n  the next eBay ?  Amazon ? Shopify?

 -Robotics.  Definitely the way of the future .  Are these 2 eft a good buy ? ( Botz and Robo ) . 

 Or are there other companies that are strongly recommend today that would appreciate in stock value ?

Thanks so much for your input.

Barry from Montreal.
