Q: Hi 5iTeam - Would you consider Nuvei a buy today for a full position or is its price mostly factoring in future growth. The timeline is 3 to 5 years. Also could you provide an update on insider ownership and recent trading. Are there any fundamentals that you think should be noted. Also do you have any suggestions for a similar company with good growth prospects - one Canadian and one U.S. if possible. More if you think it applies. Thanks.

Q: These once promising growth stocks have declined, more than others. Would you consider them in the 'hold' or 'sell' category? And in which order?
The market performance generally does appear to create more uncertainty even with good news on infrastructure funding etc., rotation alone might not be the only cause. What is your take?
Thank you, Team!

Q: Good Morning 5I Team, Thanks for the all your great advise.
As per the portfolio analysis I need to increase my International allocation which is currently at 10%. The Portfolio analysis classifies my following stocks/ETFs as International Brlxf, EWA, HFPC.U:CA, ATCO, BBU.UN, BPY.UN, BEP.UN, MDT.
Can you please suggest some growth stocks or ETFs to add to above holdings to increase my International allocation as well as if any of the above holdings doesn't have potential and can be reallocated? I am looking at long term over 5 to 10 years and have limits in my TFSA & RRSP account.
Please deduct Credits as deemed appropriate.
Thanks

Q: I need your best suggestion on "international" stocks (holdings). I'm happy to do the homework if you can make some recommendations. I have a decent sized portfolio and a pension, having only minimal international exposure at this time. This is for my RRSP. I have a 17 year investment horizon. Your portfolio tracker suggest 20% so that's 4-6 stocks?

Q: Both of these has been hitting all time highs.
Looks like STNE passed the 20B market cap and kept going. Any thoughts on valuation?
Re Okta looking to add to round out the position. Worth waiting for it to settle down or things looks good into 2021 and beyond so good as any time to hit the buy button. Maybe the recent cyber attack is helping here.

Thanks

Q: I'm curious what your favourite emerging market companies are right now (that can be bought on a US exchange). I currently own MELI and am looking for some other ideas in the tech space. Or can you suggest an etf?

Thanks
