Investment Q&A

Q: For AI, which companies are in the best position to benefit from having the largest and highest quality data sets, in addition to GOOGL ADBE and META. Please explain how they can benefit and whether they are buyable today for long-term holds.

Q: Looking to top up underweight positions in ADBE, INMD, META, SMCI held as part of a US$ account geared to growth. Could you please rank your preference for adding to the above at this time (10 being a very strong add at current prices) In other comments are welcome. Many thanks

Q: I have this in my TSFA account. Should I sell it? If so what stock should I replace it with?

Thanks

Q: Hi 5i
Can you comment on what’s expected from the “Mag 7” stock price action from Tsla, Amzn, Goog, Msft, Nvda, Meta and Nflx this coming week as the Nasdaq 100 is being re- balanced over the weekend and some of these names could be affected price wise?

Thnx much
Dave

Q: In a US $ registered acct with a growth tilt, equities that we hold in a 'smaller' % (1%-2.5% range) of total portfolio are as follows: ADBE, BKNG, CROX CRWD, META, SMCI . Would you put new money into any of these ? At what price ? And what approximate % of a total portfolio would you go up to for any of them ?
Thank you

Q: Hi 5i,


Looking to add one of the three, and would like your highest conviction pick.

Thx

Q: Hi Peter, what do you see happening on July 24th when the Nasdaq re- balances? Do you think that some of the top stocks would see a bit of a sell-off as ETFs and institution investors rebalance as well? Which companies would you put new money in? Thanks in advance.

Q: Can I please get your thoughts on the new Meta Platforms app Threads? Do you think the success of Threads will push Meta shares to new all time highs over the next ~6 months? Would you buy Meta today?

Q: Hi

Sold both BCE and T prior to them dropping.

I am now under weight in communications by 3.79%.

Do I buy them back or would I be better off with VOX as my US holdings are doing better than my Canadian holdings over all.

Thank you

Mike

Q: Could you give me your recommendations for the 10 best US medium or large cap companies that pay small or no dividends?

Q: Hi Peter and company,

What would be the percent weight range holding the “magnificent 7” in a portfolio for a growth investor? Are there any names you would substitute? Expand to 10?

Thanks for the great service,
Angelo

Q: What stocks would you suggest for a TFSA of about $70k for a 30 y.o. with a 10-15 year time frame?
Thank you.

Q: I have held disney now for 2 and half years and i have been in the red since can you please advice me if i sell it what would be a good replacement for it in my rrsp. And the same goes for cvs it has put me in the red as well is there a better replacement for this that pay a good yield as well. Thank you for all the support

Q: Hello, is it possible that the "Communication Services" sector no longer exist and has been replaced by "Media"? Companies such as Bell, Telus, Meta and Google are all in the "Media" sector, is that really the case? Thank you

Q: I would like to invest in some AI stocks. Could you give me a list of a few AI stocks that you would recommend at this time.
Thanks for your usual help. Shirley

Q: Further to my earlier question regarding covered calls, can you please suggest some higher volatility US names that would be suitable. Your 2015 CMS article advises the use of companies with no debt and excess cash that are more volatile than the market. I would imagine this points mostly to mega cap tech names, but some diversity in the list would be appreciated. Thank-you.

Q: With no tax implications; if you had a significant short term profit in META would YOU be inclined to take profit and move to another name(s)?
If so what would be your 2 or 3 stocks highest conviction names for a 1 to 3 year hold and why?
Thanks, Hugh

Q: What are your 10 top momentum plays?

Q: I hold UNITY and APPS , now less than 1% and at a substantial loss as part of a US $ registered account tilted to growth and, intentionally, heavy in tech. In addition to the above two, it has the following holdings, with % shown of TOTAL (U.S. & Cdn) portfolio, followed by % of profit/loss, Our Canadian portfolio is balanced and much larger.

META .75% (+21%) , TEAM 1.9% (0%), CRWD 2.7% (-20%),
QCOM 3.7% (+45%), MSFT 3.8%(+116%), GOOG 4.5%(+6%), and NVDA 8.8% (+200%).

I am looking at selling U and APPS and perhaps TEAM (?) , increasing META to about 1.5 and looking for something new. Maybe SMCI - but after the parabolic increase in the last month maybe that needs to be on a pullback. Anything about this that you would do differently., including alternatives to SMCI ?
Take as many question credits as needed - many thanks.

Q: I compared the 6 month stock price performance of the following as Nasdaq stocks and as CDR's:: AAPL, AMZN, GOOG, META, & NVDA
All stocks showed better returns on the Nasdaq.
than as CDR's probably due to currency fluctuation but I am puzzled by the huge discrepancy in the gains between the 2 exchanges. eg. AAPL & NVDA show a 25% higher gain - AMZN 12.4% - GOOG 16% - META 1.7%
Can you explain?
Thanks, Hugh
You can treat as a private question at your discretion.
