Q: Our son is 14 and his RESP is about $80K. It owns Amazon, Facebook, Nvidia, Alphabet (equally) and Knight (24%), reflecting his lifestyle and my faith in GUD. Can you temporarily overlook weighting, etc. and suggest one more US stock with some potential torque for a 5 year hold? Risk is not a factor. If this account craters, he will still get any education he aspires to before he heads out on his own...
Thank you.

Q: I am largely an extremely long term buy and hold investor. With respect to tech stocks over the next three decades I see the usual suspects alphabet, amazon, facebook and apple as fairly certain bets over that time frame notwithstanding potential government intervention causing breakups. That said, what other US tech companies would you feel have similar potential staying power for the extremely long term aside from Cognex ? Which 4-5 others would you select ?

Q: Hello 5i,
Nice job on the new web site!
I began adding stocks to an otherwise sleeepy TFSA after I joined 5i. I recently used Norbert’s gambit to add us $. Also, thank you 5i, I’m close to 100k in that account. My accounts, taken together are balanced across sectors but lean toward growth. I should add to health sector but not necessarily in the TFSA- so don’t let that restrict your answer.
Of the stocks listed above, which one shows the most potential? Why? What are the growth numbers for 2018.
If not any of the above, those listed are expensive, can you offer a couple of US stock ideas?
Many thanks,

Q: 10,000 Americans a day will reach the age of 65 and this will continue for the next 19 years. That's 3,500,000 a year times 19 years. More walkers, hips, knees, wheelchairs, nursing homes, retirement homes, pain pills, drugs. More of what Savaria ( SIS ) produces. Great for Savaria !
