Q: In response to some questions about Brookfield Corp/BAM sharp drop in Tuesday trading, I could add the following.

As per CNBC, there was a report today, related to perceived impact of AI on software Companies, which could seriously result in their profitability/business and eventually valuations ( already seen in publicly listed most software stocks). Most of the Asset Managers, with large books of private credit, having a fair portion of this credit related to start ups or early stage software companies, fell today, due to the fear of resulting losses and declining private valuation of such borrowers.

Most of the big asset managers were painted with the same brush, today, as it was not immediately known or disclosed, as to, which ones have significant exposures to such clients.

It might be helpful if you are able provide some more information about such exposure to the Brookfield group.

Thank You

Q: Are these two companies mostly identical in business model?? Are there differences and if so, can you identify those differences - thanks

Q: Hi 5i,

In the event of a sharp pullback in the markets, what would be your top 5 stocks that would be on your radar to purchase?

Putting aside sector/industry/US or CAD markets and with the mindset of a 5+ year hold.

Thank you,

Greg C.
