Q: Crypto. As a retiree, I have stayed away from the whole bitcoin field, and from afar, have watched my nephews exulting in their current success. Even at my age, I am not immune to FOMO. I am not fearful of risk but have stuck to areas that have some form of business that I can wrap my mind around. Like NBIS, and Kraken, thank you very much. If I was to stick my toe in the crypto area, what approach would you suggest? I'm guessing an ETF but which one? Thanks for your ongoing advice, to me and to all your other subscribers. Using 5i guidance over the years, I have a decently performing, balanced portfolio, weighted with RBC, SLF, ENB, the Brookfield gang and the like. A dash of crypto? all the best

Q: I have a low cost base on MSTR and it has become wildly outsized as a position in my portfolio. I want to maintain significant exposure to BTC and crypto more generally but diversify this exposure to maintain my exposure levels while reducing the company specific risks that I currently have. To keep this outside of being direct investing advice, if you were to start a small crypto portfolio using $10,000 and wanted MSTR to be a part of it, what else would you buy and in what position size to enjoy diversified crypto exposure? Note, it doesn't have to be all directly tied to BTC if you think ETH or SOL deserve attention.

Thanks!

Can you suggest 5 Canadian or US companies that could be the next NVDA in the next 5+ years and their growth and risk as well as any other details you may have on the companies.

Thanks

Q: For Crypto exposure, I have a 1.5% position in COIN, a 2% position in GLXY (up 25%) and a .5% position in MSTE. I want to invest another 1.5% by either bringing COIN to 3% or investing in HOOD at 1.5%. Would you add to COIN or diversify into HOOD? Would you be comfortable with 5.5% total in diversified Crypto holdings?

Q: Hi 5i team
Let me start by thanking you all for you valuable insights into markets and stock valuations through the years. My question is regarding a tfsa portfolio. I am considering reducing amount of stocks to 20. Which 6 stocks would you let go in order of first to sell to last. Secondly, could you give me a brief opinion/ comment on my present holdings in a tfsa and if there's value in keeping status quo.
Thanks as always
Gilles

Q: I hold positions in all of these companies and I have some money to put into the market. Could you rate these in terms of which positions you would add to given the potential for total rate of returns given their current stock price, business model tailwinds, risk vs reward etc.

Conversely, if you would rate these as a hold then feel free to mention that as well. Thx.

Q: Dear 5i
CRCL seems interesting and seems to be a somewhat more stable investment then investing in bitcoin directly . Do you see this stock as a viable option in the crypto area or is it a little to soon to tell . My one other concern is that the price of this stock goes down when interest rates go down and currently i think the rates are more likely to go down than go up . What are your thoughts on this one and would galaxy or coin be better choices in the crypto space ?
Thanks
Bill C
