Investment Q&A

Q: Morning 5i,
I'm looking to get my US allocation in my portfolio up to ~40% in the Healthcare, Industrials, and Tech sectors. I have a VERY long time frame, but I'm interested in businesses that have aggressive/high growth in the IMMEDIATE to 2 year timeframe.

Could you please rank the names below in terms of highest short-term growth potential coming out of a COVID world (reopening, new normal).

And if possible, are there any US names that trump these selections instead? Please take as many question credits as required:

Healthcare: VEEV, AMGN, REGN
Tech: TEAM, TWLO, MSFT, NVDA, AYX, AMZN, GOOG, QCOM, PYPL
Industrials: ROP, RTX

Q: Hi Team, presently I'm in he negative with HONEYWELL. Would this be a good time to add or should I initiate a position in RTX. I thank-you in advance, Sam

Q: Hi 5i,
Based on your input, I'm looking to stack up on Industrials, Tech, and C. Discretionary. I have a 5-10 year+ timeframe and have a huge focus on outsized YoY revenue growth / returns for my portfolio. I can tolerate a lot of volatility and risk.

1. For Canadian industrials, what would be your top growth picks? Also looking to get one aviation exposure, what would be the best one out of AC, CAE, EIF?

2. For Canadian Tech, I currently have SHOP, KXS, LSPD, REAL. As you can see I'm aiming for outsized YoY Revenue Growth. Can you suggest other names? How does PHO and STC compare with them?

3. I have BYD, DOO, and GOOS. Can you name two MUST HAVES for Consumer Discretionary/Cyclical in the US?

Please subtract credits as you find appropriate. Thanks!

Q: Could you please comment on their results and outlook?

Q: Good morning 5i,
It is often mentionned that we should buy US stocks to offset the heavy concentration on financial and energy in the Canadian market. What sectors should one concentrate on in the US for this reason? And, in the current environment, is it possible to suggest one or two preferential stocks in each of these sectors?
thanks

Q: From a risk profile point of view, please classify each of the above companies as:
Low risk, average risk, high risk or speculative. Charge as many questions as you feel appropriate.
Thanks. RAM

Q: Good morning,

Could you give me the sector revenue breakdown for RTX? How much is commercial vs defense, etc.

TIA

Q: hello 5i:
could you give me 3 ideas for "best in class" Industrial, US stocks? And possibly a short thesis on why you think so. RTX and GD are already owned in this sector.
thanks

Q: Hi Ryan and Peter.
The gov'ts are talking about reopening Economy soon. A lot of stocks (except for the high techs) are still 50% less than the recent highs. Which industries or companies do you think will benefit from the reopening? Can you please provide 2-3 names in the US and Canada? I would like to move some money into my TFSA.

Thank you,
Yiwen

Q: My question is what is the new cost base for UTX, now RTX?
I held UTX and then it spun off Carrier and Otis. With these spin offs, I thought my cost base would be reduced for the spin off values for Carrier and Otis. But itrade and also Globe & Mail still show the original UTX cost base. 
I read that the spinoff and merger where to a non-taxable events.....or that's I took it.
Any information you can provide me to clarify this situation......Thanks.....Tom

Q: I have US cash to deploy and want to do so gradually in stages. I am already well invested in US Tech and I also have decent positions in COST and AMZN. Could you recommend some other US companies - those that have been unfairly punished by the virus that could be good long term investments. Also looking for some international exposure.
Thank you,
PD

Q: Hello, my shares of UTX have just been converted into shares of CARR (14%), OTIS (22%) and RTX (64%) respectively. I do not want to have too many stocks in my portfolio, do you think it is ok to keep just one of these three companies? If yes, which one would you keep? Why? Thanks, Gervais

Q: Would you switch BA to RTX (or another US company in the same sector) in light of what has happened to BA in the last while (MAX issues, dividend suspension, gov't bailout, etc), or just hang tough for now?

Q: Hello 5i
After the UTXexchange should I bring CARR, OTIS and RTX up to 1% of the portfolio?
Thank you
Stanley

Q: Hi 5iResearch Team,
Any reasons why RTX dropped so much right after the merger was completed.
Cheers,
