Q: This morning, both Lightspeed and Dye & Durham have taken hits of over 6% however, I cannot find news. I have done very well on both and plan to take profits off the table or would you recommend I exit? Any thoughts?

I sold NVEI last week as it reached my stop and continues downhill. Any news?

Thank you and very best wishes for a great 2021.

Q: With DND having gone up quite a lot in the last month and its lockup period coming to an end (IPO Jul 17 at $7.5, 180 days would be around Jan 11), do you expect a pullback soon? I bought at $27. What do you think about selling now at $50ish and hoping for a pullback to mid/ low $40s to buy back? It is only < 2% of my portfolio and this move would be just for fun, so not too important if it doesn't drop and I go find something else to buy. I also don't mind holding it for a year or two. I am just starting to learn to trade and would love your opinion on how you think this stock would behave in the near future.

Q: Of the above stocks which would you feel is the best to add to our TFSA and why? Could you also rank them in order best first, in case I decide to add 2.

Second related question: LSPD, CTS, and DCBO are in a non registered account They could be moved over to the TFSA but am reluctant to do so because l have a capital gain on them, 200%, 60%, and 60%. LSPD would be a partial move due to its greater value.
Thanks for all your guidance and suggestions in the Q and A. The 3 above profits are a result of 5i.

Happy New Year to all.
John

Q: I reviewed your recent answer to a question on Haivision and wanted to follow up. I have had some success profiting from DND on the IPO and a less pleasant experience with BBTV. I am wondering if you can dig a little deeper on Haivision to help me understand if it's more of an LSPD/DND/NVEI company in terms of opportunity vs BBTV which sounded exciting? Does Haivision have a large TAM and if so, is it a market already dominated by a few players or is Haivision a pioneer or one of the early entrants? Who do they compete against (US or Canada) and are they growing more quickly or more slowly than the competition? Lastly, if there are major competitors, does Haivision have any unique offerings that give them an advantage?

Thanks as always for your thoughtful and profitable replies!

Q: Two questions here, please deduct as fit.
I have a triple with DND, about8.5% of over all holdings, and am thinking of selling 50%, and buying NVEI, or would you just hold and enjoy the Christmas bonus ride for a bit longer, or a lot longer.
Two, is Peter's new fund up and running, and if so how can I buy some.
All the best, and many thanks for the great advice.

Q: I was fortunate to acquire DND at issue and have a nice profit. In reply to the recent questions about DND - specifically about 3-5 year hold for capital gains - you ranked it behind KXS, NVEI, XBC, although noting it is the largest/ safest among NVEI and XBC. My question is whether you would advise to sell all or part DND and reinvest in NVEI or XBC, which I do not presently own to maximize gains over 3-5 year time frame.

Q: DND just announced the purchase of Doprocess software from Omers for 530 million. I am a lawyer and this price of software which essentially saves real estate lawyers a bit of time to paper house deals seems extremely high and they basically admit that in their press release. Omers must be pinching themselves at their good fortune and it just reinforces my view that the Omers team is top notch. If this is an indication of the management of DND then this stock is grossly overpriced.

Q: Would like to pick your brain.
Can you give me 5 Canadian NON 5i portfolio stocks that you consider high growth and would probably put in your growth portfolios if you had the cash.

Like KXS, DSG, CSU 5 years ago or LSPD, WELL etc 2 years ago.

Thanks
