Q: Hello,

What would be your top mid-cap stocks for both the CDN and US stocks for contribution into TFSAs?

You're often asked for small-cap companies so wondering if we could go up a notch in the rankings to see what your thoughts are....

As always, many thanks for your help and wishing you well in 2025!

Q: In a recent Market Update (Aug 22) you spoke of the power of compounding and the key characteristics of a high compounding stock such as higher volatility, strong sales growth, lower dividends, premium valuations, etc. As a follow up to this topic could you please provide the 5 best US companies (or more if you wish) which you consider to fit these characteristics for long term compounding. Many thanks. Cal

Q: Hi,
I own TT, PWR, HEI and TT. Looking to add to this industrial theme, if you think that's a good idea? I need a stock that's in a reliable sector without gut wrenching volatility. What do you advise? Are there CDN stocks you'd recommend?

Q: Hello 5i,

We sold two stocks that had were poor performers but they improved in the past few months in our RRSP. Can you rank the following stocks to purchase if we were to initiate a 1/4 position today for a 5-year hold? Our intention is to start 2 or 3 positions to see where they go, and add funds to the best two over time.
Would the ranking be the same for a TFSA or non-reg account?

Thank you
D&J

Q: Yesterday you recommended this company as one of your top midcap industrials in the US. I'm trying to get a handle on why. Not just for this company but as a way of deciding among various factors in making purchases. For example, the Stockcalc report on it says it's 21.6% overvalued. Thompson Reuters report rates it a 4/10. It has a P/E of 41 with a 7% growth rate. On the other hand, this stock has risen 8% in the last week and 15% in the last month so clearly a number of people think it has very good prospects. Why?
