Q: Does this selloff in tech concern you at all to take down the broader market? Seeing big down moves lately in tech, such as SHOP, GOOGL, NVDA, SMCI, VRT, etc... Tech is my largest weighting for sector, should we be repositioning at all or how would you approach this to maintain profits. I've had a very good run, but hate take the stairs up and then seeing the elevator go down fast. Thanks!

Q: Dear Peter et al:

I know from your answers that you like VRT. I am down by about 8%. Not too worried. Willing to hold on to this.

The question is two fold:

1. I look at Finviz screener (freebie version!) and the Debt: Equity ratio and LT Debt is high? 2.25 it says. What does it mean? Indicates risk?

2. Worth adding to VRT as it has pulled back or do you think there is more downside drift to come given the sector rotation is now firmly in place?

3. Offers a decent premium and to my earlier question sometime ago you had recommended this as a candidate for writing call options. Do you still hold that view?

Many thanks in advance.

Q: Hello Team,

I was wondering if you could rank the attached 12 companies from 1 - 12. I have some money to deploy in my cash account and already own all 12 in my TFSA/RRSP. Will be a 3 year hold.

No worries on size, risk or industry, looking for best returns only.

Thanks!

Q: I came across these comments in the Globe & Mail:

“We believe the names enabling more efficient interconnect in segments such as module OEMs, analog and DSP [digital service providers] will drive the second wave of AI investments and are still under-priced for the opportunity set (especially given the run-up in power utilities).”

What companies come to mind that fit this description, and how would you rank them (starting with the best ones first)?

Q: I know this is outside 5i's wheelhouse, but I am going to cheekily ask it anyway. I am contemplating a 50% drawdown of my investments (to purchase a cottage) and want to determine the optimal way to do so. 50% of my investments are in a cash account, and roughly 50% split equally between TFSAs and RRSPs (all of which are maxed out). Almost all my high growth stocks are in my TFSA (NVDA, VRT, GOOG, MSFT, AMZN), with mostly slower growers and dividend stocks in the other accounts. Considering both tax consequences and the need to continue having a diversified portfolio, where would YOU take the money from?

Q: Dear Peter:

I have a small sum, about 10 k USD from locking in some profits. I can only write covered calls in my Registered accounts. No cash secured puts! Any candidate that you may want to suggest for writing covered calls? (can only be in 100 shares lot, right?) The ones that have attractive premiums are very expensive!

Many thanks.
