Q: Hi 5i Team - I hold the above stocks in three small U.S. accounts. I plan to keep NVDA, QCOM, AMZN, GOOG. My holdings in the other six are minimal due to the general sell-off over the past year: CRWD, UCTT, U, APPS, ROKU, UPST. I would like to combine these 6 into two, three at the maximum. Could you suggest which two or three should be kept. Or might it be best to sell all six and start over with a couple of different ones. My investment focus is growth with a three year timeline. Since it's the end of the week the answer can wait until sometime next week.
Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i:
I've been away for a while and not keeping up with Questions, so this may already have been asked and answered. if so, please provide a link to the answer.
I'm hoping you could advise what sectors you think will reverse the current trend and begin to appreciate in value more quickly than others and, also, if you could identify three or so names you would expect to 'lead the charge' in each of those sectors.
If time and space permit, any commentary you might have regarding each identified sector and/or name would be appreciated. Thanks!

Q: Can you provide a 'buy' list for a person wanting to deploy $200,000 (inside RRSP) with the goal of creating 5% or more sustained cash flow - as well as growing the original capital to keep up with inflatiion? We do not have company pensions - this would serve to supplement our government pensions.
Thinking, 20 stocks across all sectors @ $10,000 each (or 5%)
Also could you include 10 growth stocks (inside TFSA) for a total of $250,000 - gotta have some fun ;)
Many Thanks

Q: Hi Team,
I was looking for a list of some beat down, quality names in this carnage with robust potential, to hold my breath and buy some more shares for the long term. Names that have the potential to recover and continue climbing higher, once the market normalizes (whenever that may be). 4 names I was thinking of were either NVDA, SHOP, WELL or TOI. Which of these would be your top choice for the highest return potential over the next 10yr period? Do you have any other names in mind which you would prefer or the ones I listed? Thanks

Shane.

Q: As part of a balanced portfolio, we have the following 3 equities that I would like to add to, for some additional tilt towards growth:
SHOP at 1.6% of portfolio (down 46%),
GOOG-NE @ 2.5% of portfolio (down 12%),
NVDA at 3% of portfolio (up 11%).
What portfolio % would you feel is reasonable for each for a balanced but leaning to growth approach ? Would you purchase all at this time or divide the purchases into 2 or 3 tranches over the next # (?) of months ?
Many thanks, as always.

Q: I hold NVDA AMD and MDB in registered accounts and they are now down 47% - 18% - 39% respectively. As there is unfortunately no tax benefit to selling, should I continue to ride them out or bite the bullet and redeploy to recoup some of my losses within a 3 yr time frame. If redeploy is the answer, some suggestions please.

Thanks.
