Q: Hi Team,

Now that DOGE may have had its day of influencing spending in the U.S., do you have any updated thoughts on Booz Allen? I am looking for a dividend grower with a reasonable valuation in the defence/security space. Any other suggestions for companies that haven’t ’taken off’ (pardon the pun) in the last six months in this space?

Thanks!

Q: Happy New year 5i!

It's been an interesting start to the year, and I've been watching/reading things that seem to be leaning towards or preparing for a 'fearful' period. Thoughts on this? With deployable cash, would you be getting it in the market quickly, or not be in any rush?

That being said, AXON and CSU have all seemed to back up more significantly than they ever have, and CRWD as well with the exception of the update failure event. IESC, PSN, and MU as well trending lower.

I hold none of these and have some USD free for 2 half, or 1 full position. Would paying the FX to get CSU on sale be your top pick? of the ones mentioned, would you rank them in terms of expected growth over the next 1 - 5 years? please add a 3 or 4 more options in there as well if you have other top picks. Small caps are good too.

I currently hold GOOG NVDA AMZN MSFT POWL ISRG CLBT VRT on the US side.

I don't mind managing holdings in a shorter period of time if needed, but aim to find those long term compounders and let them continue to win.

Thanks for everything!

Q: Can you please rank the above companies for capital appreciation over the next 2-3 years. No worries on Risk or Industry. Thanks again!
