Q: Noticed an interesting pop in solar stocks today. Any particular reason for this? Also, I’ve noticed that they have traded sideways for several months now. Would you rather trade or invest in this sector?

Q: I noticed that when people ask for top “energy” names they are often provided with companies involved in oil and gas (eg. SU, CNQ, TOU, etc). What sector is the solar industry in and how do they compare to the top oil and gas names?

Q: Hi 5i team

Q: Hi Team,
I'd like to start positions in an aggressive growth portfolio in the artificial intelligence, genomics, renewable energy (and EV) sectors (2-3 positions per sector). Holding time 2-5 years.
Also considering Bionano Genomics (BNGO).
1. Please rank the sectors for expected growth. Are there any others I should consider? Are they already overbought/overpriced?
2. Please rank the stocks in each sector for expected growth. Are there any others I should consider?
Thanks!

Q: HI 5i Team. I really appreciate your comments that speak to opportunities/areas or perhaps "themes" where you currently see good growth opportunities now and in the coming years. Some commentators have pointed to themes such as EV and materials that support EV, clean tech generally, changes in healthcare, etc. What would you consider to be some of the better investing themes right now (say 3 or 4?) and what would some of your suggestions right now for some good Canadian and good US stock selections within each, with growth in mind over a roughly 5 year horizon in a TFSA. I already have positions in LSPD, WELL, XBC and QST, and I plan to acquire AZT next. So I would be interested in hearing about your ideas and suggestions that might provide some additional diversification into other areas. Thanks very much - take as many question credits as necessary.

Q: I've been interested in SEDG for the past couple of weeks and I don't own many stocks in this industry. Do you think now would be a good time to get in? Additionally, I'd like to avoid going beyond approximately 20 stocks in the portfolio, so adding SEDG would mean selling my position in one of the other four stocks above. Do you see greater potential in SEDG over the next 3-5 years? Or would it be better to build on the positions I already have?

Thanks
