Q: When looking at all my accounts, I am slightly overweight in DSG but I also own TOI and TIXT. Long term investment, would you reduce exposure to DSG to increase TOI and TIXT. Which one do you prefer and why? Selling a portion DSG would not trigger a capital gain since in TFSA and RRSP. Thank you.

Is there a better future for T over TIXT ?
Should be be fearing interest rate hikes in the sector ?
Are there seasonal factors to consider ?

Q: We recently initiated a TFSA for a family member (long-term buy & hold); the 10 securities purchased (in approximately equal amounts) were: Aritzia (ATZ), Unilever (UL), GoEasy (GSY), SunLife Financial (SLF), BAM (BAMa), WSP (WSP), Algonquin Power (AQN), Telus Int'l (TIXT), and an ETF called XUSR. Still have ~15% capital (~$12,000) to invest. Which 3 or 4 of these would you have greatest conviction to add to? And/or is there another security which would complement the above?

Q: I have TTD, PLTR, NVDA, PLTR, NVDA, CRWD, APPS, UCTT, CELH, AFRM, MTTR, UPST, VEEV, in my US account, and LSPD, SHOP, EGLX, TIXT in my Canadian (and holdings in other sectors, but these are the holdings in question). I don't need to sell anything, but don't have new funds to deploy in the low market. I had a lot of positions in tech going in and already thinking about consolidating the sector when the market turned. I wonder if you see anything that should be sold, and added to something else to maximize growth when the market turns good again, or if it is better not to shuffle at this point.

Q: Correction**

Thank you for the answer on TIXT.

Looking for some clarity on your answer. A rating of A- would not be seen/interpreted as a hold to me. Especially given the stock is at more attractive multiples then when you wrote the report. So please elaborate on how you you now see the stock as a hold and not more of a buy?

Also, just confirming you think a good price for TIXT is $45 and at $30 it is very very attractive? Obviously a 33% and want to confirm that this is what you meant.

Thank you.
