Investment Q&A

Q: What AI stock (s) would you consider investing in at this time Which one would be your number 1 pick ?.

Q: Do you see any issues with buying the CDRs for some of the large cap US stocks (i.e. Google, Nvidia) if one does not have a US dollar trading account? Are there any downsides? They seem like a good option as they are USD hedged.

Q: Hi Team,
I hold NVDA and SHOP with some great gains after buying the dip in the fall of 2022 (thanks to 5i!) . My question I suppose is more of a broad market question. I went through the rise of tech in the 2020/21 blistering rally, and also held through the subsequent gut-wrenching fall. Luckily for the most part I held on to most names and am now riding high with my tech heavy portfolio. Are we flying too close to the sun again so to speak with some of these names again? Should I be selling some of the higher flyers such as NVDA? Or should I just ride it out? I have trimmed some NVDA a while back and re-allocated it into BN for some more diversification. After watching my portfolio crumble in 2022 I just don't feel like going through that again (if we feel that the tech sector is overvalued). If valuations are justified; however, I am willing to keep holding. I won't be retiring for another 10-15yrs... unless I really have some massive winners that is! Just looking for an opinion here.

Thanks,
Shane.

Q: Is there an ETF that tracks the s&p but excludes the mag 7 ?

Q: For someone looking to make a first time entry into the sector, which one of the two would you recommend and why? Are there any others to consider that would rank above these?

Thank you.

Q: Would you give me 5 of your TOP picks CANADA and USA Thank you RAK

Q: Hi I have my RRSP distributed at around 8% or 12% on these stocks, would you change anything , I'm heading to retirement in 7 months from now and like to know if you would recommend any modification. I can sustain drops of 10% , which I handle by doing nothing.
Thank you 5i, you have been good to me!!!

Q: Please rank the magnificent seven from best anticipated performance first to least in the next 5-10 years.

Q: Hello 5i,
I own the following in a non registered account: SHOP TTD GSY HPS NVDA WELL KXS. I'm thinking of adding SCMI VRT AMD.
Could rank these ten stocks for growth over the next two-three years for an above average risk tolerance.
Thanks
Dave

Q: Dear 5i
Are smci and vrt different enough to own both in a TFSA ?
Also i was thinking of buying NVDA for one TFSA and AMD for the other TFSA as a way of not betting just on one or the other . Would you agree with this line of thinking or not ?
Thanks
Bill C

Q: Could you please give me your assessment of this company. Thank you

Q: In the midst of portfolio rebalancing for the coming year and have another question with regard to composition. I've been reading your comments around the positive prospects for tech in 2024 and want to overweight that sector. I am currently at 18% tech (NVDA, MSFT, LMN). But I also hold GOOG (technically Communications) at 5.46% and AMZN (technically Consumer Cyclical) at 7.39%. Within the context of an alpha-balanced portfolio, would you recommend increasing my tech holdings further, or do you believe I am sufficiently weighted in this sector given my additional holdings in AMZN and GOOG? Thank you.

Q: Peter,
what would be your list of baby Mag 7 that have high probability of solid growth and show possibility of becoming the new Mag member? Do you see AMD as a potential contender?

Q: May I have your thoughts on SNPS and their acquisition of ANSYS? Since some shares are being issued to finance the purchase should I wait to see if the stock declines before taking the plunge? The market seems to like the purchase as SNPS's shares went up instead of declining when the deal was announced. The stock price was fairly steady until 2016 when it began a steep climb up, what changed? Or was it us, the buyers, whose attitude to their business changed? Is their business model very similar to NVDA or in a different niche?
Any thoughts you have would be appreciated.
Regards,
Jim

Q: HI 5I, I like to reduce my tech stocks, I like to keep 5 of them (the ones with more stability) , the rest will sell to buy BN & COST (or any other suggestion) , I hate to let go some of them since they have provided me good gains , but I need peace of mind, and balance, I hate to be in your shoes with this question, please advice, thanks

Q: PSA


i find it funny that the media fawns over these great companies; gushing over their collective 2023 'huge gains

never mentioning that 5 of 7 haven't even made it back to their 2021 price

so those unlucky enough to have bought at the last euphoria (fall 2021) or almost breaking even

(and yes, i agree these are some fabulous businesses)

good luck
