Q: Morning 5i team,
I bough URI back in May 2023 and have done quite well over a short period of time. It's close to it's all time high and although it might have some more upside potential, it may be limited.
I'm thinking of switching from URI to AMZN for a possible better return.
What are your thoughts on the switch or should I stay the course or would you suggest a different stock to switch to.
I currently hold AAPL, GOOG, MSFT and NVDA in that account.
Your thoughts and reasons for your suggestions are appreciated.

Have a great day.

Joe

Q: 2 for 1 questions...

1- What is the average PE for the construction industry as it appears that URI misfortune may be linked to the residential slow down. What is the forward PE for URI?

2- It appears that TD is the most shorted of all banks throught the world according to Bloomberg. That's not a small statement. Having said that, would you buy now or wait for a general bank recovery?
Sorry this makes 3 questions. LOL LOL

Q: Hi 5i Team,

I’m down on all the above stocks as follows CRWD Down 36%, ETSY down 40%, PINS down 52%, PYPL down 64%, SQ down 72% and U down 77%.

With a 2 to 3 year horizon which of these are worth holding and which once I should sell and can you suggest US replacements and not necessarily in the same asset class. Just good stable companies that have good growth potential to outperform the indexes.

Take as many credits as you feel necessary.

Thanks
Joe

Q: Hello 5i,
I own these four industrial stocks. Could you please rank them for growth?
Do you feel it necessary to own all of them or is it logical to consolidate.
Lastly, are there any US names you would rank higher than these?
Thanks for you insight!
