Q: I have LSPD at a loss in my TFSA. A two year chart suggest both NVEI and LSPD have dropped about 75% from their highs. With no tax loss benefit, is it worth switching to NVEI. (I am in no particular need of cash from this account for many years, if ever.)

Q: These 9 companies are the holdings in a growth oriented Canadian TFSA. The intent was for them to be long-term holds. However, NVEI, ILLM and LSPD are all down over 50% and some so rejigging is being considered.

Would you consider any of them to be a SELL?

Of the 9, which 2 would you be least inclined to keep in the portfolio and why? Please suggest potential replacements.

Please rate (1-10) the remaining 7 for additional money today.

Thank you,

Peter.

Q: All three stocks have been setting higher highs and higher lows since mid April. Have you heard any news on why these three stocks are having a positive uptrend recently? All three have crossed the 50 and 200 day moving averages. Clayton

Q: I understand that you are keen on NVEI as a longterm growth story… could you please explain a bit more about where they fit into the fintech space - eg direct competitors, maybe comparative businesses? Thank you.

Q: Hi 5i team,

I have a growth and long term outlook and looking to trim some losers and replace with some winners. Of the following stocks, do you feel any need to hold for the long term? Also, what are some US/CAD replacements you would recommend and can you rank from highest to lowest based on overall strength?

Thanks 5i team.

Q: Everyone, I will be selling LSPD and need to buy another tech stock as a replacement. My present technology stocks are: AAPL, AMZN, CSU, MSFT, NVDA and SHOP. I have held those names for between 5 and 10 years. Do I add to the existing group above? Another name? I am NOT in favour of FB (can’t stand the CEO or the business). My preference is to add to SHOP because I am underweight that stock. Clayton

Q: Hi 5i Team,

Lightspeed and Digital Turbine represent my biggest losers, down 60% and 70% respectively.
I am comfortable holding LSPD and APPS for a 5 year time frame but do you see some worthy growth for these two companies in that time or would you redeploy elsewhere?

Do you still believe in their growth story for the longer term?

A million thanks for all you do!

Cheers

Q: Have a couple of stocks in LSPD and SNAP that have performed poorly over the last year. Was thinking about replacing with Lumine Group and AEHR. Do you think a trade like this would make sense. Would there be other stocks that have high upside that you would also consider? Thank you

Q: Good Afternoon
I hold BAM, Bank of Nova Scotia, Leon’s, GDI and Lightspeed. I have held these stock for years and each position makes up about 1-2 % of my portfolio. I am looking for a bit more torque. Can you suggest a consolidation candidate or perhaps one of Shop, Descartes , Doo or one you prefer better. Thank you
