Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: I purchased Docusign last year and until very recently it seemed like a great choice. It’s sharp decline that began in late February has been significantly steeper than the tech sell-off in general. The shares are now right about where I paid for them and a hair away from succumbing to the old adage “never let a gain turn into a loss”. The steep sell-off has me worried that it is a precursor to the street expecting disappointing earnings when they report this Thursday. I know what the consensus forecast is, but what does 5i’s crystal ball predict for their upcoming Q4 earnings and the market reaction?

Q: Many travel, leisure, and entertainment stocks, as well as exchange-traded funds (ETFs), have rallied from a year ago on bets of a post-pandemic recovery now that a coronavirus vaccine roll-out has begun. The new Canadian-listed Harvest Travel & Leisure ETF (TRVL-T) has increased in price by 26.3 per cent in February alone, while collecting $66-million in inflows. What investment approach (individual stocks or ETF's) would you suggest in order to play in this post-pandemic recovery? And might you have any insights on TRVL-T? Cheers.

Q: When do you think we are going to see the market sell off settle down in some of these names? Is this panic selling by retail investors or a more troubling move by smart money out of these names entirely? I'm just finding it hard to imagine that the prospects for these companies changed as dramatically as the share price in recent weeks. Take NVDA for instance. I thought it was everyone's darling a few weeks ago when I bought it over $100 higher. I'm holding but it's hard watching these things fall so dramatically each day without reprieve it seems. Thanks.

Q: I have a loss over 22% in DND in my non registered account. Would it make sense to high grade to one of the other three given current sell off in all four stocks? Which one would provide the best long term growth?
Thank you
