Q: Microsoft's C$7.5 billion investment in Canada (over the next two years), part of a larger C$19 billion commitment through 2027 may benefit some Canadian companies like GIB at 52 wk lows and CLS at 52 week highs.
I like beaten up dogs like GIB vs. high flyers.
What is your opinion of GIB these days.

Thank you

Q: Can you describe what Zedcore does and why it has performed so well. Is its product line unique or is there aggressive competition? Is there anything that really sets it apart from others? If not, then why has it been a go to stock over the past while? How would you rate it out of 10? Where do you see there stock price in 6 months?

Q: Hello,
I have owned stpl for years as a sector based diversification strategy but feel it has had disappointing returns, even for that sector noting that there are some great breakout picks in the staples sector.
Could you please advise if you think it is a reasonable choice for the staples sector versus specific picks?
I realize that you typically recommend dol as well as wmt, cost and pg. just wondering what you think are good long term picks at this time given significant movement in these in the last couple of years.

Q: Everyone, i never understand what will make a multi bagger until one has already happened. What would you consider the characteristics of a multi bagger and what stocks do think will make that list in 10 or 20 years from now? Clayton

Q: Hi, I noticed that the market model still says the last update was for Oct 2025. Is there a schedule for updates?

Thanks,
Andrew.

Q: Similarly to the question asked by David regarding your Income portfolio, for B-E portfolio, what would be your top 10 stocks in the order you would buy. Based on anticipated total return (dividends + stock price increase) for the next five years expectations. I would also appreciate if you could add to these stocks your return expectations and risk ratios on the scale of 1 to 10, with 10 being highest. Thanks.

Q: Follow-up comment re: usefulness of customer data in training AI agents, you say.... "The key of course is adapting quickly before customers even start to consider their own solutions." I do not share this view that customers with time can complete with LMN.

My point is the detailed data on vast numbers of customers within a vertical can not be replicated, and is the CSU/LMN/TOI superpower...to train AI agents specific to their customers needs. Customers could have all the human intelligence and time, but without the vast data to train the AI agent the result will be inferior.

Your reply implies a customer and LMN have equal capabilities to develop AI agents, my thesis is they are not.

All of this to ask 5i confirmation that your view is existing CSU data sets to train AI agents is not an 'essential' ingredient....and customers can 'equally' develop effective AI solutions for their business.

Q: Good morning

What are your thoughts on DSG 3rd quarter earning looks looks like decent results?

Q: How would you know when CSU's price action has "settled" and that it is safe to add in? What indicators would you look for?


Price today is $3321.04. Morningstar gives CSU a fair value of $3,744.01. And it is a rare event in its history that CSU's price falls below its fair value.

Would you add to it today?

Q: Hi, I read a quick article today about one of the billionaire investors who was praising Bitzero. What do you know about this stock, and how would it compare with HIVE in your view? As well, rather confusingly, Bitzero seems to have two different stock tickers in Canada. Which one would be more recommended? Thank you for your service.

Q: Hi, do you have a preference between these two? They are both well off their 52 week highs. I realize tax loss selling has probably contributed to this and/or they are just small caps caught up in the out of favour market sell off. Would you own both or consolidate into one? Or do you have another small cap preference to these two? I already own PNG and ZDC.

cheers....

Q: YTD Lundin's stock price has significantly out performed Capstone. Are there fundamental reasons for that and what are your expectations going forward?

Q: This has hit my radar, but I have concern that it is overvalued. Your thoughts would be valuable please.

Q: Looking to establish a position in Bitcoin/Crypto; wondering what your thoughts are on the above companies and what other options there are.
Thank you for your input.

Q: I’m only interested in Canadian compounders. Compounding companies that are mid to large cap that I am invested in are CSU, TOI, LMN, TFII, and ATD. Can you recommend 5-10 possibilities for 5-10 year compounders in the Canadian small cap space?

Q: I would appreciate your views of the 3rd q results. I think they were fine and find the selloff puzzling but that's what happens in the small/microcap cap world.

Q: Hi,
We own no crypto stocks. I feel that we should have some exposure in our portfolio. Now there has been a bit of a pull back… I cannot decide on what combination of stocks or ETF’s (cnd or US$) to buy in this sector for total portfolio weight of approximately 4-5%. What 3 combination of companies and/or ETF would you buy for a balanced exposure to the sector.
Thanks for all that you do!

Q: How would you rank these for growth? I own GLXY and NBIS already. GLXY is 3.5% and NBIS 1.62% position. I could add more to NBIS or start new positions in either CIFR, IREN, HUT or HIVE. I see you recently started a new position in HIVE, but assuming you could choose between all of these companies, how would you compare or rank HIVE to HUT, IREN and CIFR as new AI/HPC plays from bitcoin miners? Thanks!
