Investment Q&A

Q: There seems to be a consistent view by 5i and others that Small and Mid Cap stocks have started to lead the market and will continue to do so over the next 2 to 3 years.

What are your current top 5 Small/Mid cap US and Cdn stocks? Could you also add what you think are good entry points?

Thank you;
Tim

Q: Hi 5i Team.

I have some names in my TFSA account such as ATD, ATX and ENGH (and maybe some others) that are laggers and would like to move out of them and into something with potentially higher returns.
I also own the other names mentioned above.
What are your thoughts and could you recommend 3 to 5 Canadian and/or US names with the reasons and entry points.
also own NVDA that has grown to a huge percentage of the account.
I know that I should sell some but it has been such a great performer.


Thank you
Joe

Q: With the NUVEI deal going through I have cash sitting in my TFSA. Could you recommend three stocks that you would recommend right now.

Q: comment on earnings please.

Q: You have liked these small/mid cap names over past couple of years and most have done well, thank you.

Under current market conditions and entering a second Trump Term, what would be the order that you would buy these names? Is there any of these names you would not buy and move on from?

Thank You
Tim

Q: Hello,

My son has saved a bit of money and expressed an interest in equity investing.

He does not value, yet, the value of "paid for" advice and has selected 5 stocks his friends have suggested.

I would appreciate the names of 4 or 5 stocks from the growth portfolio that are currently out of favor or have significant runway.

Thank you

Q: I'm considering the following stocks - can you please rate them from favourite to least favourite.....: SPSC:US, vrt, sj, dcbo, tve
thank you!

Q: Just reviewing the addition of DTOL to the Growth portfolio. If I were to restrict myself to just one of DTOL or DCBO, which would you prefer?

Q: Hello, I have a small position in these four stocks and I'm up about 10 to 15% with all of them. I'd like to sell one to free up some funds. In which order would you recommend selling if you had to? I realize this is only an opinion and not advice. Thank you!

Q: I owned GIB.A, DSG,TOI,LMN,NVDA,DCBO and would like to know if there is an overlap between any of these stocks or do they have their own unique business so all should be owned? I am trying to decide if I should reduce the numbers of tech stocks as I currently have 27 stocks and have read that best to have around 20-25 stocks.

Thanks

Q: Hello,

You run a very interesting service! Thank you!
Please recommend which positions you would add to, at today prices, in descending order (most preferred to least preferred) (thank you Ahn for the question format).

Q: With the markets at all time highs, are there certain stocks you think people can scoop up or add to that have good growth opportunities at a reasonable price? I know 5i is not usually worried about buying companies at 52 week highs, but it is still something difficult for me!

Q: Portfolio Cleanup Part 5:
I have needed to do this for a long time. These are a list of securities I have that are within a 15% profit or loss of where I purchased them.
Which ones to do see as an Add, Hold or Sell. Can you provide a short reason why for each. Thanks

Q: For each pair, which would you choose today? VRT vs. SMCI, DCBO vs. TCS, NXT vs. BMI. Thank you!

Q: Any stocks you see that have strong fundamentals and show some god technicals as well ?

Q: The following 5 companies make up the majority of my small cap portfolio:
HPS.A - current price $ 113 CAD
TVK - current price $ 95 CAD
Celestica - current price $ 58 CAD
Docebo - current price $ 55 CAD
ADF group - current price $ 12.9
Propel holding- - current price $ 27.29 CAD

Please recommend which positions you would add to, at today prices, in descending order (most preferred to least preferred). Thank you very much and have a good day.

Q: Looking to setup a very concentrated TFSA to drive long term capital gains. Currently holding the above names. TSU has not been nearly as exciting as the other names. Is TSU going to provide outsized capital gains? My thinking is to sell TSU and allocate the funds to the other names equally. If there are others names you would recommend pls do share.

Q: Good Day,

I redid my portfolio early this year based on much of your feedback. And of those picks, Every single one of them was up, most significantly so, at least once, since that time. Some have returned/fell below those buy levels.

1. DRX, HPS, LMN and VRT, seem to have consolidated up a healthy amount, do these appear to be new support levels from which they'll continue to grow? Still Aces in your books?

2. SMCI is furthest from this years high, what are the main barriers it would have to reaching that high again in the coming year? In your opinion is it likely to get there within 12-18months?

3. NXT, CELH, CDNS, DCBO, and ATS all went significantly up, and almost as precipitously down. They seem to languish. I doubled down (half to full) on CELH on the first big drop in April, which seemed worth it in May, but less so now. Do you have faith in these names still? Is their prospect for growth still the same as it was in February? Are there new names in this Growth profile (or what is was in February) that you are more confident in? With your suggestions here, please rank them with these names from highest to lowest prospects/confidence.

4. AMD. Is it worth holding the 2nd fiddle? Would it be better used in something in 1st in a different space? like AVGO or QCOM?

5. DIS. Been very up and down on this half position. Worth going to a full at this point, or would you want to see the ship righted a bit more before increasing? Would you sell a Disney holding?

AMZN, GOOG, NVDA, TVK, DRX, POWL, TCS and CROX all doing their thing for me :), suggestions other than these please.

Thanks for all you do! Please take however many credits you need.

Q: Hello Team,

Looking at updating/rejigging my TFSA account, are you able to rank the above stocks from 1 - 12, looking at a 3 year hold. These are a mix of some I hold and some I want to purchase. Not worried about size, risk and or industry. Thanks.

Q: Hello 5i
Can you please give me the expected growth rate for these companies over the next 1-2 years.
Secondly, if you had to raise cash which order would you trim or sell outright?
Thank you so much for all your help!
Dave
