Q: Hi, what do you think about investing in gold or gold companies during normal times with a growing economy? Does gold companies always perform poorly in "normal" conditions or they can outperform? For example do you think it is still ok to invest in gold companies or with the vaccine and a recovery start in 2021 these companies tends to underperform? If you think it is ok, which companies do you recommend for growth, like top 5?

Q: You have just won $100,000. The catch is that you have to invest it in 10 stocks right now, split evenly, and can't touch them for 10 years. You must buy only Canadian stocks. Any dividends will be invested in more shares of the issuing company. You can cash out after 10 years. What do you buy?

This is a hypothetical question, but out of the four stocks listed, which one would you consider that has the potential to be the next Shopify, or is there another that I have not listed?

Q: Dear 5i
Between my wife and i , we have 3 RRSP and 2 TFSA accounts and 1 unregistered account .
In terms of stock picking for each account how would you go about choosing your stocks based on having 6 different accounts ?
For example i`d like to own 1-2 utility stocks per account and maybe 1 bank stock per account . Would you say that i`d be better picking a different bank / utility stock for each account OR just pick the 1 or 2 of the best stocks per category and have the same "best " stocks in each account ?
Thanks

Q: Engh had a news release today -
"Videoconferencing solutions provider sees 1349% pandemic-led surge in mobile usage, WebRTC implementation and brings on veteran SVP"
The VIDYO segment was noted as a driver of earnings in their last Q, my question then could this news imply the coming Q numbers will continue to rise based on this area of growth? Is this a buy signal?
