Q: Hi Everyone at 5i! I am thinking of adding more dividend players to my tech heavy TFSA, just to start balancing things out a bit. I was thinking of adding Manulife and Atco...they seem cheaper, have some growth prospects and raise their dividends yearly ( though albeit, manulife ran into some problems a while back. ) Are my proposed additions decent selections? Cheers, Tamara

Q: In your answer to a question recently asked on Genomics, your suggestion was to buy an ETF such as ARKG or EAGB. You also mentioned that if so inclined you could start adding small amounts in specific stocks which of course be riskier. Would you be able to suggest 3 or 4 of these stocks either US or Canadian, preferably at least one of each.

Q: In a response to a question asked on Friday you said “ For direct bitcoin exposure, we prefer the current Trusts that have been set up, such as GBTC and QBTC.”
What do you think of Wealthsimple as a way to buy cryptocurrency? They offer Bitcoin and Ethereum . I do not know what kind of fees they take.

Q: I recently saw a news feature that highlighted the increases in children developing myopia due to the amount of time they are now spending in front of screens.
I am looking for your best ideas to play this theme in Canada, US or internationally.
Would this company be your best recommendation or do you have another?
I have been a subscribing for many years and the 5i team has been outstanding.
Thanks for all you do!!!

Q: Can I get your thoughts on this Company, Powerband Solutions Inc.?

It has an interesting business model focusing on the vehicle market; but I frankly bought it expecting to lose all my money. After a long while of being under-water, the price is a decent amount higher than what I bought in. I'm trying to figure out if I should exit and take the (small) gain or stick around for the long-haul.
