Q: I am looking to add 1/4 positions in my growth portfolio with AT and NVEI. Or I could add to my half positions in U, CRWD or NVDA. I would like your thoughts on which is better at this time for long term growth. I am underweighted in US stocks. Thanks

Q: A family member would like to build a US dollar portfolio with US stocks. My thought would be to do it along the lines of the 5iR Cdn Balance Portfolio. For example, JPMorgan would be the US stock for the BNS. With this in mind, and being able to tolerate risk and for a long-term intention, like 10 years, what would you suggest the 15+ position US portfolio would look like?....Thanks...Tom

Q: I am seeing several places saying that the price of oil may continue to climb as demand increases with global economies reopening. Hearing the possibility of WTI oil going over $100 US per barrel, The O & G stocks have been the best performers on the TSX for a while now, but still look pretty cheap on a cash flow basis, and I am wondering about how much higher this sector will go if the oil price surge continues. Say an investor is holding a basket of Canadian O & G stocks, including some of the larger and some of the smaller companies. I am wondering what would be your estimate of the increase in price of that basket of stocks under each of the following 4 scenarios: by the end of 2022, WTI oil reaches $75, $85, $95, or $105. Assuming the WTI/WCS differential remains at roughly the current $13-14. Thanks.

Q: Regarding Tak's question about selling QIPT at a loss and buying WELL. There are QIPT warrants exerciseable at CAD $6.40 up to June 29th. It is possible that warrant holders have been shorting the stock, resulting in the recent price deterioration. Since the warrant expiry is so close, it might be worth waiting until early July to see if the share price rebounds absent the short pressure. I own both and am waiting until July before making a decision to hold or sell QIPT.

Q: I'm a holder of BUG, Cyber Security ETF which has remained relatively flat. Meanwhile, I see CRWD is a top recommendation of yours and it has done quite well. This week's Economist has a feature on cyber security and I believe one of the key takeaways from the article is that firms are wasting a lot of money on ineffective cyber security providers. I welcome your thoughts on if selling BUG and replacing it with CRWD in a portfolio makes sense (betting on a sole winner rather than the sector as a whole), and if you would buy at this price? (Noting I was eyeing this stock a few weeks ago at $215)

Q: Hi Awesome 5i team, I have some cash to invest, in Canada, I am thinking of "AT", "GSY" &"CTS", some of these names are at all time high, could you please rank them from risk/growth perspective. Given recent volatility of the market, could you please provide a good entry point if you will.

For US, please also provide three names that are growth oriented, and three reflationary driven. All are for long term investment.

Thanks,
