Q: Appreciate your best advice regarding selling half of my large position of Visa and purchasing Walgreen's in my cash account. Anticipating Walgreen's will be very involved in providing vaccinations. Or better to stay with a large concentration of Visa with the economic recovery (hopefully) in USA. What is Walgreen's dividend? Thanks for your valuable input/advice as always.

Q: I am concerned about 30% of my holdings being in IT and would like to reduce perhaps by half and cover some other sectors for balance. (Just read your year-end article about predicting 2021 - perhaps you would not be concerned about 30% going forward)
What order might you trim / sell these to raise cash?
Much thanks for steering us through a year full of uncertainty.

Q: Good morning 5i,
I am wondering if you think it is still reasonable to be selling covered calls and puts on tech stocks? Are the work from home stocks going to be declining because of the announcement of vacine? If you thing that is still a profitable avenue what stocks might you suggest these days for this strategy. Thanks for your help and all the best on your new venture.

Q: Hi, current in my portfolio of 13 stocks + 2 ETF I have some good performing stocks that are > 5% position, TXN is 10.3%, DIS is 8.40%, EWZS is 9.37% and ADM is 8.54%. 25% of my holdings are in TECH (3 stocks + 1 etf). Do you feel comfortable with keeping these stocks with current positions or could I trim it to reduce risk ? I don't have many exposure to financials and consumer cyclical sectors. Can you suggest me growth stocks in these 2 sectors in US and CAN ? In healthcare I have only ABBV, I would like to have other good options here for growth and medium risk. I have +20 years horizon.

Q: Hi,
I’ve held V shares since the IPO and have done really well. With all the talk about the shift to digital currencies/payments becoming a more dominant place in the global financial system, do you think also diversifying into BABA (stake in Ant Group) and PYPL (creating a larger transactional payment landscape for the future through bitcoin) would be a good move? Do you see further secular growth in this area? Thanks!

Q: Hello 5i Team,
Seems that Square is recently facing much more competition. Just in the last two days, JP Morgan has launched "Quick Accept", Visa has announced "Tap to Phone" and Paypal is opening up their network to cryptocurrencies. Is the big run over for Square, and would you recommend possibly switching to Paypal within the payments space, given these announcements? Thanks. Brad
