Investment Q&A

Q: I have 1.4% of my total portfolio in AMZN in a TFSA. I realize this isn't much of a commitment and am tempted to sell and invest the money instead in one of my other TFSA holdings (all of which are around 3%): LSPD, NVDA, APPS, ADBE or GOOG. Your advice, please.

Q: US Compounding machine stocks - please list and rank.
Thanks

Q: Adobe and the nasdaq look ready to move up ( i recognize my rose colored glasses maybe on) with that in mind where do you think ADBE may rise to ?

IS 700 unrealistic within the year?

( If this year has taught me anything, uncertainty is the only constant especially with the inflation story having held the market hostage the last few months)

Q: I have meaningful positions in Adbe Msft,Amzn...they have all reported what I thought were spectacular earnings each.respectively.The market doesn’t seem to like them ....What am I missing?

Q: Your thoughts on the recent news of a new 20 billion dollar plant and the new ceo's game plan and would you view this as positive or a drag on the stock and would you still see adobe as better than intc with more upside.Own msft nvda,intc,orcl and aapl

Q: What are your thoughts on the earnings release and do you think the resultant pullback is a chance to open a position? Thanks

Q: Hi 5i team,

I have a 3% position in DOCU in my RRSP and I'm thinking switching to ADBE as its price seems attractive. I would like to have your opinion here.

Thanks
Matt

Q: Adobe is down over 100$-approx 20%... since the late summer/fall.Is there any fundamental reasons to account for this slide .Are you bullish still on its future?

Q: I have Microsoft and Adobe in my RRSP and would like to add to one of them. In your opinion, which one has better growth potential in terms of stock price appreciation in the next 1-2 years....and what are your reasons for picking one or the other ?

Q: Seems bewildering to choose among so many types of Tech stocks. Looking for 3 names...would CRM, ADBE or any others you would suggest be worthy at today’s values or should I just run to the SMH ETF? Help and thanks!

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

Q: Would there be any recent news on the walmart or oracle take over of tiktok or have the courts thrown it out i own oracle and if there is no chance of seeing them buying tiktok i'm wondering if adobe would be a better stock to own.

Q: I am 60 years old, and I don't need the upcoming major problems that the world central banks are creating lead to the destruction of my retirement. So I am diversifying.

I currently hold the traditional Canadian dividend paying stocks, growing exposure to Emerging market ETF's, Gold bullion / ETF, commodity stocks, Infrastructure / Renewable Energy via the Brookfields, a few big name US stocks, and now entering the crypto world.

Here is my question: I read a recent article on Cathie Wood - CEO of Ark Invest. She claims:

"Seeded during the tech and telecom bubble more than 20 years ago, the five main platforms of innovation that we think will transform the global economy are: DNA sequencing, robotics, energy storage, artificial intelligence, and blockchain technology. These involve 14 technologies including gene therapies, 3D printing, cloud computing, big data analytics, and cryptocurrencies."

I already have a pension from a Robotics-related company, and I am investing in crypto. Do you have any recommendations for anything else from what she mentioned, in which you would share her outlook? I have both CAD and USD accounts. Could be company or ETF - big or small.

Thanks.

Q: Thinking of doing something new - Add US stocks to TFSA.
As of now, this account has a balance/growth Cdn stock tilt, like the ones in the 5iR portfolios. Read on 5iR, best to include no dividend or low dividend US stocks. Question - is there a rule of thumb or range for holding US stocks in TFSA or is it all just personal? 
Another question - for longer term holds in TFSA, what US stocks would you consider?
High 5 for the guidance!!!....Tom

Q: Early in December 2020, you recommended the following stocks as long term keepers: SHOP, CSU, ENGH, BYD, ATD.B, GSY. Could you please recommended 5 or 6 US stocks that are long term keepers?
Thanks!

Q: Please rank them based on their moat, starting with the widest moat. Thanks.

Q: Can you please rate these companies according to growth opportunities and another rating for risk? Thanks!

Q: Hello Peter, assuming an already have a diversified portfolio, in what order would you choose the following for long-term wealth creation (whether from dividends or gains): ETSY, PINS, SQ, NVDA, LSPD, ADBE, ARKW, MKP. Thank you.

Q: Please list and rank up to 10 US stocks which you see as having the best potential for capital returns over the next 3-5 years. Also, please provide a risk rating for each, using a scale of 1-10 with 1 being low risk.
Thank you for your highly valued opinion which has proven to be excellent for my investment over the past several years.
