Q: I like Keith Fitzgerald's investing philosophy - "invest in the best, not the rest".

Can you please provide me the best two within the following sectors (please provide your favourite of the two) ? NYSE or TSX-listed:

1. Within the Healthcare sector, I'm interested in specifically Diagnostics as a Service.

2. In the Defense sector. Two companies that continuously improve through technological innovation.

Q: Which stocks do you recomend for the defence sector?

Q: Hello 5i,
I currently need to add a U.S. Industrial in a RRIF, so yield is very important - as is overall safety. I need to increase Industrials by about 3.0 % and increase my U.S. holdings by 4.5 % so an equity suitable for a larger weighting would be ideal. My other industrials are EIF and SIS.
I have been looking at Raytheon, Ryder, Lockheed Martin and A.O. Smith but was wondering if you have any other suggestions and how you would rank these for safety? If there is a name with a yield in excess of, say, 4.0% that you would be comfortable recommending, that would be ideal.
As always, many thanks for all of you invaluable assistance - it is always very much appreciated!!!
Cheers,
Mike

Q: Good Morning,

As the market gets beaten down yields on some very good companies are becoming difficult to ignore.

With a recession in sight yields could possibly get even better.

I am retired and an income investor sitting on substantial cash.

What would be your preferred course of action at this time?

What companies would be most attractive to you?

Thanks

Q: I am in my 80's and am changing my investment philosophy.
Can you suggest 6-8 stocks US or Can that would be in a solid l-o-n-g term growth and income portfolio. I would particularly like stocks that have recently been a little soft.
Thanks
PB

Q: Please let me know your thoughts on US defense stocks. Are any of NOC, GD, LMT RTX or any others a buy right now?
Thanks for your insights.

Q: CAE looks to have a roughly 50% revenue split from civil aviation and defence - would you consider it comparable to Raytheon without having to be exposed to currency conversions via buy/sells? Thanks

Q: hi, with military spending increasing globally, which companies do you see benefitting and worthwhile investing in? is there a time frame or just slowly building a position? thks

Q: I am considering selling RTX and replacing it with Starbucks. Would you consider this a reasonable switch?

thanks

What is the teams opinion of ESLT compare to the other majors in this field. Also please include thoughts on LMT, GD,RTX, and the TSX traded MAL.

Q: Can you please give me your recommendation on a defence stock or stocks that you like at this time when many countries will be increasing their defence budgets. Thank You.

Q: Hi 5i,

I am having some trouble finding the percentage of their respective business is in cybersecurity. Would you have this breakdown?

How would you rank the 5 for overall growth?

TIA

Q: does MDA. face huge future capital expenditures.? what percent of revenues come from government contracts? who are MDA,s main competitors? is there any company specific reason for the shares to have dropped from their high? thanks Richard

Q: There seems to be a lot of sabre rattling (more global/political than hockey at the moment), so I would like your thoughts on growth at the four companies mentioned i.e., RTX, LMT, NOC, LDOS?
BTW,I don’t know how long I have been a member (I think membership lapsed once for a few days) but it must be at least 10 years (is that possible?). The service you offer is unmatched and it gives DIYers like me the ability to act with confidence.
Also, I keep finding new things on your web site. Hats off your IT staff as well!.

Q: Can you please comment on LMT's earnings? Buy, sell or hold? Would you recommend LMT or RTX for a long term hold?
Thanks.

Q: Do you have a preference between RTX and LMT?

Q: Hi guys, thanks for the excellent service. Generally TFSA is the place for high growth but my highest growth has been in my RRSP. Is there any compelling reason I should sell anything in RRSP and rebuy in TFSA (e.g., NVDA)? I realize I will be taxed on RRSP withdrawals while TFSA withdrawals are tax-free - but - my RRSP has a lot more cash than my TFSA so there isn't room to move all my growthy stuff over. Because of the relative size of RRSP to TFSA, if I were to do equal weighting of all stocks, I'd only have 4 different stocks in my TFSA, which perhaps is fine? Are there any obvious adjustments that you would make to the following:

RRSP:
XQQ 13.68%
VXC 12.03%
NVDA 7.64%
AAPL 6.70%
JPM 4.73%
BNS 4.52%
GOOG 4.32%
ENB 4.13%
MSFT 3.98%
AMZN 3.86%
RTX 3.51%
COST 3.42%
PG 3.11%
DIS 2.82%
CASH 1.32%

TFSA:
GSY 5.28%
CRWD 3.31%
VEEV 2.50%
ROKU 2.44%
SHOP 2.26%
WELL 0.85%
XBC 1.08%

RESP:
LSPD 0.79%
BYD 0.76%

NON-REG:
SLF 0.51%
T 0.42%

thanks,

Q: With escalating tensions between the nuclear superpowers (Taiwan, Ukraine, Uyghurs, etc.) what would be the current best defense stock to take advantage of an eventual change in investor sentiment?
