Investment Q&A

Q: I am trying to consolidate my U.S. TFSA into ETF's. On the tech side I own AMZN( nice profit) NVDA ( down 38%) and SPOT (down 4%) I am thinking of selling them and buying QQQ ETF instead.
On the financial side I own JPM (down 2.7%) V (down 1%) and SQ (down 6%) Thinking of selling these and buying DGRO ETF.
Your thoughts on this? Also if there are other ETF's that you think would be better for tech and financials, please let me know. Please deduct two credits if you deem it necessary.
Thanks for your great advice,
Jen

Q: Crypto mining has driven NVDA's stock price for some years now, but its currencies' decline will surely take a heavy toll on GPU sales into that market. Yes, AI and autonomous vehicle applications could expand, and consumers will continue to play video games, but are these enough to create actual earnings growth, or is NVDA more likely to tread water for a few years?

Q: If you we’re looking to buy 5 US stocks with strong growth prospects for. 5 year hold what names would you consider?

Q: Is this a buying opportunity? do you see more downside from here?
thanks!

Q: What do you think of NVDA at this point? out look? Could it go lower? or buying opportunity?
Thanks!

Q: I have a question about Nvidia. Tough to see it down on an up day (Nov 21) for the nasdaq. Not that I know much about Zacks but I see they have a "strong sell" on it today (not clear to me if their opinion is new today though). Are you still strong on Nvidia or would you suggest a U.S. replacement? Thanks.

Q: Looking at the US market for a 2-3 year horizon. Like TSG, SMSEY, XLK, NVDA and TEAM do you see any problem with taking full positions now and what 2-3 additions would you make and or remove.

Thank-you as always for your insight.

Q: Do you think today's bounce is short covering or longs revisiting the stock?
Is this an entry point or would you wait for everything to settle.
Thanks Peter.

Q: I can see that I was one of many concerned about Nvidia's reporting later that day. Peter wrote in on Nov. 15 in the morning asking about analyst's expectations on Nvidia's numbers. You told him it was 1.92 EPS and 3.2B for revenue. These numbers didn't mean anything to me. I hope the next time you can elaborate such as these numbers don't look good or they do look good, etc.. Or when companies that 5i clients own and they have a possible bad number reporting, you could make note of that ahead of time. Thank you Dennis

Q: I have some cash to deploy. Can you state your order of preference please.
Thanks a lot.

Q: I have a long time to wait on investments and don’t have much interest in trading, as I prefer value investing.
1)I’m still up 30% on Nvidia, with a long term in mind. Do you think it’s better to sell out now and buy back later, or do you see enough growth and value coming to make it better to just sit on and wait?

2)I’m trying to build the core of my portfolio around long term holdings in strong dividend payers (with a bias towards aristocrats) and use all drips available, and even proxy drips through my broker when I need to. Could you give me your top 1-3 dividend payers for each Sector (with a bias towards dividend growth and safety/ aristocrats).
Also, I’ve read lots of articles that state that dividend investing on average out performs the market by a few% per year, just without most of the wild swings. Do you agree?
Hopefully my rambling makes sense...
Thanks

Q: Please comment on NVDA earning release, is it a good entry point or wait till late
November or December ?
If I make tax loss transaction in my investment account and buy back the same stock in my TFSA account ( within allowable limit ) would I be penalized ?

Thanks a lot for your expert opinion.

Q: Please advise what analyst's expectations are for NVDA's quarterly release which will be issued after the bell today.

Thank you, Peter

Q: Hi Peter, Ryan,
Thanks for the great service Peter and Ryan. It is trying times for portfolios

We picked up AMZN (2%), KXS (1%), ZCH (2%) and GOOGL (1%) in the last few days. Also owned is BABA (3%), NVDA (2%). We have 25% in cash available. Is tech recommended to be 15% or 20% of a portfolio as of today with all the recent drops? I am going against the grain here for a bump up in 2019. Of AMZN, BABA, KXS, GOOGL, FB, MFST, BIDU, & PHO, and an outlier BYD.UN which 2-3 stocks are most appealing for a recovery?

Cheers
Jerry and Debbie

Q: What do you thinks of purchasing NXP at this time. What are the risks? Are there companies in this sector you prefer? Thanks for you analysis.

Q: What are you five favourite US equities to buy today given recent weakness?
Thank you

Q: I had the pleasure of listening in on the conference call last week. One theme that I agree with is to sell your losers. I understand you mean on fundamentals, not price alone. I am holding some of your favorites, and they have all taken a bath with the market. I wonder if it is time to let any go, or are they all still a hold
CAD: GSY, DOO, PHO
USD: NVDA, BOX, GRUB

Q: I own NVDA, FB, BOX, AMZN and GOOG in my son's RESP and he is still in the green. Would you briefly comment on each stock's potential rebound and rate them? Thanks.

Q: How would rank the stocks on straight growth prospects over the next 6 months ( High risk to Low risk ) thank You Claude

Q: Hello, with their new graphics card...and little competition with this new card what are your thoughts on this company? Thanks,
