Q: Q: Could I please get your thoughts on those company and whether you think it’s a good buy? Thanks Claude

Q: I have held pho for about a year and thinking of selling pho and buying nvda as they are down the same thus increasing the quality of my semi conductor exposure. Also I have made a lot of money from csu and kxs and have sold them and bought a small exposure to msft for the same reason. Does this make sense to you....thanks for the great service

Q: Hi there,

I inherited all 5 of these positions in my US portfolio and looking to reduce to 3. i am leaning to NVDA, AVGO and QCOM but I know very little about MCHP. I am also concerned about letting go of TXN given their role in converting analog to digital signals. YOur thoughts. I am looking for a balance of growth and a stable dividend.
Cheers

Q: I am up about 12% on Broadcom. It is close to historical highs. Do you feel it still has some room to grow. I’m wondering if I should take some profits now or let it ride.
I would appreciate your opinion. Thanks.

Q: Intel looking really cheap on fwd PE. ROE:19% with a 2.6% dividend. Revenue growth of 10%, beaten earnings last 5 quarters, low debt. Grew dividend 9% yoy. Price momentum is poor. Good opportunity to go to a full position at current price? Would you rank it ahead of AVGO?

Q: Which stock do you prefer for one year in a growth portfolio?

Q: Would you add to presently held investment given current situation?

Thank you.

Q: read 2 awesome articles on this website https://thestockboys.com/blog/ about qualcomm and another about Broadcom. made me interested in both at these levels, but only have room in my portfolio for one in that type of space. I know your more Canadian focused, but which one of these 2 would you prefer?

Q: Could I get your thoughts on Broadcom’s recent acquisition? The stock is taking a hit, would you hang on for the long term or sell to avoid further loss?

Q: Can you comment on Broadcom’s earnings and would you consider this a long term hold?

Q: Is Broadcom still a Singaporean company today? There has been reports in the news media around November 2017 that Trump announced "he" is moving it back to the USA. I hold a significant position in my RRIF. If it is a USA company today, I will have to pay U.S. estate taxes if I die. I will need to sell my position before that happens. Can you look into it's current home country? Is there a reliable website I can go and check the home country of Broadcom from time to time? Thanks.

Q: Hello 5i. I owe the above noted stocks. Weightings= amzn-8%, goog-6%, avgo-4% and apple-12%. Please advise how would you adjust weightings going forward in 2018 and 2ndly, would you substitute any of these tech stocks with any other ones you deem better plays?

Q: I'm hoping you might be able to help me understand why Broadcom (AVGO) seems to be so highly regarded by the investment community, as a strong buy. When I review the stock on the TMX website there is an indication that this company's shares are currently trading at a price to earnings multiple of 223.6 to 1. That seems to me to be an insanely high valuation yet the Research tab indicates that 21 analysts rate the company as a strong buy, 1 as a moderate buy and 1 as a hold.

Do you have an opinion about this company and its future prospects? Do firms in this industry typically trade on the basis of some other metric than P/E? Given that I hold nothing else in this space within my portfolio currently, would you recommend that I take a 5% position in this firm at this time?

Q: Is Broadcom (AVGO) considered to be a Singaporean company or an American company? If the company domiciles in the US, it would be considered as US Situs property. As such it may have implications for Canadians on US estate taxes. If it is considered to be a Singaporean company, then there is no issue with respect to US Estate Taxes. I was unable to get an answer from the Investor Relations of Broadcom. Thanks.
