Investment Q&A

Q: Of the three companies which one has the most growth potential for the next 3 years.

Q: CURRENT OPION ON LIGHTSPEED - HOLD OR SELL - IS IT A GOOD LONG TERM HOLD OVERALL KAREN

Q: Hi, We have 3 TFSA accounts, where we sold some SHOP, last year and made cash withdrawals. As a result, this year, we have available contribution room between $30-40k, in each account. We like to wait for an opportunity for a Growth stock to transfer from our Non Regd accounts ( there are separate accounts for each) for an in-kind contribution. Present allocation in the TFSA accounts is as follows.
CSU 25-30%
SHOP 35%
LSPD 30%
NVEI 10%

We are not worried about concentration, as TFSA funds are less than 5% of our Total Investment Portfolio, which is fairly diversified. Objective is to optimize Growth stocks in a TFSA setting. There is sufficient quantity in Non regd accounts, for all the five stocks listed in the question.

We were planning to add SHOP, with today's 10% decline and some TOI, as we have none in TFSA's.

What would be your recommendation ?

Thank You

Q: Hello Peter,
There is a lot of chatter about rotation to value stocks. Nuvei and Lightspeed are growth stocks, but after the short report, are they getting into value territory and if so, would you think this is a good time to enter those names with an initial position? Also, from your experience, why would a short report damage the stock for longer period (as in case of Nuvei and Lightspeed) when the market liked those at higher levels but now all of a sudden, institutions don't seem to be backing up the truck. Could this imply that the short report had some merits as i would have thought as a minimum, the leaders in these companies would have stepped up and bought more stock? Lastly, if inflation is a concern, would an etf for banks like zeb a better choice than individual banks? Thanks very much.

Q: Given a five year time period, please rate the growth prospects of the above stocks starting with the best.

Thank you. Appreciate your service.

Q: Year 2 of my 19 year old daughters TFSA. Year 1 suggested she get BAM.A and she is very pleased she followed my suggestion....I am thinking year 2 of more of a growth stock. LSPD has been really beaten up, good buy for very longterm hold or is there a better " foundation" stock from your growth portfolio you would suggest?

Q: What is a good price point to buy UPST, GOOGL, NVDA, LSPD.TO, ATZ..TO and SHOP.TO and NVEI.TO for 2022?

Q: Hi 5i and Happy New Year!

I hold the above noted stocks/ETF in a TFSA.
The only 2 that are above water are Nanoxplore (GRA:CA) and PayPal (PYPL:US).
Question 1). Which would you recommend keeping?
Question 2). Which would you recommend selling?
Question 3). With ESG values in mind, what would be your top 3 CAD stocks and top 3 US stocks for this year's $6000 TFSA contribution?

Thanks for all that you do!

Q: Hi,
I am wondering about whether or not replacing stocks sold for a tax loss strategy is prudent, or not. All of the above listed stocks are at a loss in a taxable account. I am looking to offset a large profit that occurred in July when a number of stops were hit. The loss on GSY and SBUX is not terribly large, and so if it is deemed these stand a good chance of rebounding in the early part of 2022, then I may decided to keep them. In selling any of the stocks listed, are their replacements I could purchase that would likely add some growth? The alternative being just wait out the 30 day period and repurchase the strongest of the list. Your thoughts and suggestions would be most appreciated! Thanks for all the great advice over the years! Dawn

Q: In my TFSA, I’m holding ATZ,CSU,GSY,TOI and LSPD. I’d like to split this year's $6000.00 allotment in January between two of these 5 stocks. At this time considering a 3-5 year hold, what would you suggest and why? Thanks and btw, it’s because of 5i that I’ve been able to achieve an 85 per cent return in my TFSA. The advice and info I glean from the questions, portfolios and reports are invaluable. Keep up the great work on our behalf. Best investment I’ve ever made is joining 5i.

Q: In a TFSA, I have ERF, LSPD, LSPK, NVEI, WELL. IN 2022 can add another $6,000 to TFSA. If you were going to add to existing holdings in what order would you add. If instead, you were going to add a new stock to the TFSA, what would you add?

Q: Hi team,
I was looking for your best bets for my 2022 tfsa contribution. I was leaning towards either Bam, Toi, or Lspd. What are your thoughts? Or do you have a better choice or 2 out there? I have a long term investment horizon 10yrs plus; and have no issue holding so long as the story in the name doesn’t turn negative . Thanks and happy new year !

Q: Looking for guidance on 2022 TFSA contribution. Currently have partial positions in these Tech companies of roughly equal amounts. Could you rank in order of best investment opportunity from current levels?
Do any of these companies overlap in their target market and if so which one should I focus on for better opportunity.

Q: Hi Peter and staff, Happy Holidays.

These are my holdings in TFSA account. Can you please suggest two more names, Canadian or US to add for the 2022 contribution.

Thank you.

Q: Hi Guys, I recently listened to a financial guy who was asked to compare LSPD to SHOP, his basic point was that Shop's growth was organic, LSPD not so much and more by acquisition which by nature is harder to integrate into a common business this thesis made sense to me. Can you offer an opinion on growth organic vs acquisition & would you expect strong organic growth from lSPD in the future for a long term investment.

Q: Hi 5i & Happy New Year!
On the assumption there will be some names that will see a nice bump in January as buyers get back in after tax loss selling and maybe other factors have caused some recent price reductions, are there 4 or 5 that you would recommend as good candidates for early January purchase to take advantage of that bump before the tax loss sellers can re-up?
And if you think the idea isn't sound, please let me know, and why.
Thanks!
Peter

Q: Your opinion on the best balance of growth and safety between shopify and lightspeed?
Thank you.

Q: Can I sell LSPD in a non-registered account for a tax loss and then buy it back right away in an RRSP without affecting the tax loss strategy?

Q: Can you list your potential biggest January bouncers, maybe 5 Canada and 5 US for aggressive investors? Thx!

Q: First and foremost, thank you very much for your coaching which makes DIY investing much easier.

In the more aggressive part of my portfolio which is otherwise well balanced, these stocks are deep under water but at a relatively low percentage. There is no tax implication and a 3 years horizon minimum. I know you don't like averaging down but at a year end and beginning of a new one, timing (sorry) could be an advantage.

Having said that I have 2 questions,

1-Would you go bottom fishing while the price is low and hope for a Santa Claus rally (hoped for) or wait till things settle down?

2-If I decided to add to these existing positions, could you rank them in order of preference with a short term view please.

Thank you and happy holidays to all team members.
