Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Hello 5i,

Which stocks could be negatively or positively affected with ChatGPT Atlas?

I don't see adds right now on this browser. If they do add advertising in on free accounts...What would be the impact to software that relies on adds?

Ironically, if Google offered an add free/pop-up free subscription we would have signed up long ago.

Looking forward to your analysis.

Q: Creating TFSA for 25 year old daughter. Started off really timid with VBAL then slowly started to add individual names. Small quantity in US names. If 10,000 left to add, what would you suggest to balance it out and be diversified, based on current prices, value, potential upside, while managing huge swings in price with things like metals/oil/gas? I want her to see the benefits of investing and feel the pressure so don't want to make any huge mistakes. Thanks for your great advice!!

Q: I have 16.6% of my RRSP currently sitting in cash, from accumulated dividends and some contributions I never got around to deploying into the equities markets. Can you give me two names (US or Canadian equities) that I could spit this amount between, to purchase? Many thanks.

Q: Most successful investors I have read about become rich investing in 3 to 4 consolidated holdings. What do you think of that approach? If you had to sell everything today to invest in 4 stocks which could double in 1-3 years time frame, which will those 4 stocks be. How do you protect yourself from huge drawdowns along the way. On the other hand what do you think about over diversification where you do not invest more than like $2500 per investment and sell half when the stock doubles and leave the rest and continue doing that.

Q: Hi Team,
I was looking for quality growth names that were attractive today for purchase. Geni was on the list due to the recent weakness in the sports betting sector. Do you see it as a opportunity to buy at these levels? Could you also provide a couple names on your radar either cnd or US that you see as particular good buys today for a 10yr hold? Thanks

Shane.

Q: Got my first 10 bagger today!! Thank you to everyone at 5i bringing us such good stock ideas and portfolio analysis. Thought Nvidia was going to be my 10 bagger but Galaxy Digital has been on a tear and takes the prize. Now that I have to trim them both(again) what stocks might be worth looking at in Communication services(US or Canadian) as I am presently low in that sector.
Thanks again.

Q: CSCO is one of my core and long term holds. Lost money and made money and now after so many years I am sitting with very significant gains.

The question is this: Under the current AI craze and momentum and things changing so rapidly, should one hold and let it run the course or sell it and move it to AI based stocks. (I already have some of your favourites like GOOG and NVDA.)

Where does CSCO fit in the new AI paradigm shift?

Many thanks.

Q: Hello Peter and team,
I would like your thoughts about Adobe who recently got a lot of downgrades from major investment houses of renown. Is AI going to affect their business to such extent? The same thing was said about Google a few months sho which lately rebounded quite nicely. Can they both be in the same boat? Thank you for your always interesting views. Adel
