Investment Q&A

Q: I am looking to add 2 technology stocks to my TFSA account. They can either be Canadian or US stocks, either hardware or software, social media etc. I am buying them for growth, also I can take risks.
Thanks

Q: I am looking to put my money into 2-5 stocks/Mutual funds.
Investment Horizon is 10 Yrs, i am a high risk taker, looking for High growth.
But, I am not very active in the stockmarket, I want to put my money in 2-5 holdings and then forget about it..... and then sell them after 10-15 years.

Please suggest 2-5 stocks/Mutualfunds etc...
I friend suggested BAM, BRK.B and Mauer Mutual funds.....Please advice

Q: Good morning Peter, Ryan and Team,

What US companies would you be putting new TSFA money into for 10 year hold? Assume a diversified portfolio and trying to get high growth for TSFAs.

Thank you,

Wes

Q: Would you please suggest 2 US and 2 Canadian stocks that hold promise in short to medium term for my daughter's RESP ? Thanks.

Q: Kxs has been drifting lower for the past few weeks. Comments?
Also, in response to today’s question from John asking you to rate TFSA stocks for a 5 year hold your answer didn’t include KXS as he requested. Could you revisit this response please.

Q: Hi guys - when (if ever) does it make sense to sell individual stocks and replace them with a focused ETF? For example, I hold the 3 chip stocks above (though only for about 3 months, so only modest gains) since I expect AI, gaming and 5G to be areas of growth in the next few years. Would it make sense to sell these and replace them with SMH, which holds 25 semi-conductor stocks? These 3 are among the top SMH holdings and SMH holds other interesting stocks like TSM, ASML and MRVL. Obvious downsides are that buying SMH would add stocks that aren't currently doing so well (INTL) and would dilute my concentration in these 3. For a non-professional, part-time investor does this simplification make sense or does it significantly limit the upside?

Q: Hi Folks,
Looking to add to my TFSA for 2021 - want something with some growth for a 5+ years hold - I am looking at NVDA, PINS, PLTR, U, CRWD, CSU, KXS and SHOP - can you recommend in order of preference.
Thanks

Q: Hi, My respected 5i team
I bought these stocks back in March or April 2020 during the market correction, thanks for your recommendation!
Right now, the upward momentum of these high tech stocks are diminishing and their valuations seems high.
What is your opinion about the valuations here, are they over valued too much? I'm worried about the "tech bubble" happens again. Should I sell them now or under what condition you suggest that I should sell ?

Q: I am a fairly new investor and was wondering your thoughts on when to begin diversifying? I own approximately 15 companies, mostly being TECH and Financial. Recently bought NVDA shares and am looking at U, CRWD and LSPD but not too sure when I should approach other sectors and look at companies like COST or TT for example. I would be targeting my RSP in this approach. (Not sure if that matters)

Also, your must own top 3 US/CND stocks for the next 25+ years for a TFSA?

Thanks for all that you do
Nick

Q: Hi,
If i have to buy two Tech companies to buy into my TFSA for growth which ones would you pick

Q: Looking to add semi-conductors into my portfolio, as there is a shortage of product and high demand in the Automotive and Electronics industries. Interested in your perspective on Analog Devices, NXP Semi-Conductors, STMicrelectronics and Micron Technologies, as they have all had a great run, but still have high Buy ratings. If you think these have had a great run, and has some risk, what alternatives would you recommend. Thanks

Q: Myself and my 21 yo daughter have been building a balanced portfolio following your recommendations. Thanks to your service this has been an incredible learning experience for her and profitable to boot! Right now we are trying to decide between PINS NVDA and AMZN to add to her TFSA (We are also adding TT at this time and are balanced across market sectors). Just wonder which you would prefer at this time for potential long long term growth.

Q: I already have positions in Nuan and Fang stocks. What other small/medium sized AI focused stocks would you suggest I look at for additional AI investments?

Thanks, Tim.

Q: Hi There,
I am looking to purchase two of three stocks listed about within my TFSA.
Of the three, which two would chose today?
Thank You

Q: What are your thoughts on this company? Is it a good investment in your opinion

Q: A Happy, Healthy, Peaceful and Prosperous New Year to 5i team!

As you folks are good in identifying the trends with momentum, what are the 2 sectors that you feel have the best momentum now , going into 2021. For the next 6 months to a year?
Your selections for these sectors?
US;Canada;and the Rest of the world.
Thank you!

Q: I have Cisco in my RRSP account - down 13% since I bought it in June - looking to sell it - can you give me a couple of names that I could substitute in its place - US or CDN ? Looking for growth but with some safety.
Thanks

Q: Thinking of doing something new - Add US stocks to TFSA.
As of now, this account has a balance/growth Cdn stock tilt, like the ones in the 5iR portfolios. Read on 5iR, best to include no dividend or low dividend US stocks. Question - is there a rule of thumb or range for holding US stocks in TFSA or is it all just personal? 
Another question - for longer term holds in TFSA, what US stocks would you consider?
High 5 for the guidance!!!....Tom

Q: Hi, I am looking at topping up my TFSA with a transfer in kind from a cash account. I realize that doing so with a profitable holding will trigger a capital gain, so am wondering about transferring stock that I currently show a loss on. Granted it is a paper loss and I do not wish to sell the stock outright as it is NVDA. Would the same be true here in that I will trigger a capital loss, because technically the holdings are sold in the cash account and bought again in the TFSA? If so, then it seems like an interesting option - would you agree? Or is there an alternative you would suggest that is better? As always, your thoughts and input are greatly appreciated.
Happy New Year!
Dawn

Q: Hi, can you please provide your top 3-5 growth picks (Canada or US) for long horizon investment? Many thanks!
