Investment Q&A

Q: Hi There, I am trying to stear my portfolio decisions going into 2025, and looking for some of your feedback. I am 28 with 55k in myTFSA ( all after home purchase, so longer time horizon), I have about 5K of the 55K to invest, and the other 50K in the stocks below with their respective weightings of the 55K. I am trying to decide if I should add any other specific stocks or top up weightings to 2% on BSX / BKNG / ISRG / TSM / CELH / SMCI and add to CRWD, DIS, GOOGl, another 1.0%.

Are there any other stocks you would recommend to diversify this portfolio some more. Do you have any concerns with any holdings or their weightings?

Please deduct however many questions you feel necessary, I don't often ask Q's.

NVDA - 15%
SHOP - 10.7%
MELI - 9.8%
TTD - 9.2%
PLTR - 9.0%
MSFT - 7.6%
AMNZ - 7.6%
META - 4.1%
GOOGL - 3%
DIS - 2.5%
AXP - 2.45%

BKNG - 1%

Q: I currently own the following at a loss: ASPN, CROX, NU, TMDX, VKTX

You suggestions on which to:

1. Sell and look elsewhere for better opportunity
2. Sell and rebuy in 30 days
3. Add into current weakness

Q: What are your thoughts on NU Holdings latest quarter? Other than revenue being slightly below estimates, things looked good. Does growth look to be intact and is the drop related to profit taking or is there something else here? Thanks

Q: Sold 1/2 my portfolio (except CSU, TOI, LMN) at the end of August. First week into Sept and I'm looking smart. While I think it's still too early, when and how do I get back into market? Holdings (some sold out in August) include AMZN, META, NVDA, AMD, VRT, BN, SHOP, AXON, SNPS, NOVT, GOOG, NU, ELF.

Q: This Brazilian fintech/bank has not been performing well. I have a small position. Not sure if I should add or hold. It is hard to find good info on Stone since it is Brazilian . What is 5iresearch's opinion?

Q: Can you explain the large drop in stock price after the release of the third quarter results in mid November. It is hard to believe that this is just profit taking. Thanks Mike

Q: Hello Peter
Any idea why Nu Bank holdings is surging as compared to NVEI, LSPD, PYPL etc. Is it because Warren Buffet owns shares in the company? Is it worth starting a position?

Q: What are your thoughts on investing in this company

Q: Thanks for your guidance. As we come to end of the year I am looking to book tax loss as I am down substantial on several stocks, including some highly recommended by 5I. My question is in 2 parts

Are there any stocks that may move substantially and is advisable to buy proxy or buy the same stock in family members name for the next 30 days

Thanks

Q: Any thoughts?
