Q: Down significantly on these names, wondering at these level if you would still hold on for a better market, if so which ones or swap them out for other stocks that are down and may have a better chance to recover.

Q: Terrible markets with NQ in bear space. NVTA,PATH, PLTR,BL are at/near new lows. Reportedly PLTR reports before open,May 9. All in Investment a/c.,except BL in Tfsa. Thinking of selling at a loss before they get worse,which maybe offset by potential capital gain of other stocks at a later date. Appreciate u short view on each. Txs for u usual great views & services.

Q: I remember when GUD went public you were in love with it, well maybe not the right choice of words. We know now what happened since. With PLTR, same kind of love at first, as per your current answers not so much. I worry this may become another GUD story. Do you like Peter Theil, and do you think he remains a good asset for PLTR. He is controversial, so that makes we worry. Your thoughts please .

Q: I own both of these companies, and would like to add more to my current positions. I know you like them both as long term investments. Do you prefer one over the other?

My other question is: What is your opinion about selling puts to add to these positions? Volatility is very high on both, so I would get a decent premium, and I (possibly)get to buy them at a much lower price. This just seems like win-win to me. Are there any risks in doing this that I'm not aware of? I am not using any margin for these purchases.

Thanks for all that you do

Q: Good day. A little over 1 year ago I allocated about 5% of my portfolio to the high growth/risk stocks. Needles to stay it hasn't worked out as expected. At this stage I am hoping that you can give me insight what the future holds for these companies as an investment. Which should be sold and subsequently move the funds moved into the keepers.
Deduct as many credits as you feel appropriate.
Much appreciated

Q: I have 6K in my TFSA that I’d like to deploy. Presently the TFSA contains the following names and the weight for each one of my TOTAL portfolio (Margin+TFSA+RRSP).

EGLX 0.87%
GSY 3.75%
LSPD 1.62%
MG 5.41%
NTR 6.26%
SHOP 2.05%
WELL 1.94%
NVDA 3.42%
PLTR 1.33%
PINS 0.53%
TFII 5.74%
U 2.29%

Should I sell EGLX and PINS since they have dropped below 1% of the portfolio?
Should I add to one, two or three of these names? If so in what order of preference?
Or should I go with another suggestion? If you can list 5 in order of preference.
Any sector CDN or USA.
I will not need the cash for another 8-10 years minimum.
Thanks for all you do.

Q: As we move into 2022 I find myself looking for long-term trends that I can believe in and consequently feel safe to invest in. It seems to me that:
1. FINTEC
2. Cyber security
3. Payments
are three such trends. I'm curious if you agree with my three choices and if you do could you suggest a couple of companies in each trend that would be your favourites. Finally, are there other viable long term trends that you think I have missed?
