Q: When looking at POW's historical stock price, I see two spikes: $70 in 1998 and $57 in 2004. I don't even believe that stock splits have anything to do with these prices that, even that long ago, are higher than today.

Was POW's stock price really that over-priced back then? I think POW is still cheap now, but with such a seemingly wide valuation range since the '90's do we have a sense where POW's current valuation sits relative to its history? Is it an apples : oranges comparison today vs. then?

How do we see POW's outlook going forward ?

Q: Tom Lee is quite bullish on bitcoins and mentioned "CRCL" a stable coin name. What is your take on this one, how does it compare with "GLXY" in terms of risk-rewards for next couple of years? Thanks

Q: What does Stablecoin to the price of Ethereum? I understand that Stablecoins are pegged to USD. If more transactions happen on the Ethereum network, why would the value of Ethereum increase? I can't see the connection.

If I wanted to dip my foot into Ethereum, should I buy ETFs like ETHA? Any other recommendations?

Q: Dear Peter et al:

I understand that JPM won a case against regulators and got their SCB-Stress Capital Buffer reduced from 3.3% to 2.5%. Apparently this frees up 18 B from their reserves and they can invest it wherever they want. I understand that they have announced a share buy back (50 B) AND a dividend hike! (1.50$: 7% increase over the last time).

1. Is this true? If so, is JPM a buy over other banks/Financials? Especially BRK.B?
2. If you don't fancy JPM or BRK.B (you don't like their cash position is what I see in you previous answers), which other large financial would be your pick?

Many thanks.

Q: For a long time, BAM and BN were relatively close in share price. Why the $10 difference of late ? Does BAM need to catch up or has BN had too good of a run of late (and needs to come down) ? Or is this the new normal and how it should have been all along ?

Q: I have read your previous responses to this company question and understand recommending for or against will not be answered. I am wanting to know more about the holdings and the make up of this company/fund. Is there an MER? Is the holdings just uranium or am I right that they are moving in rare earths? A general overview of what they do with not recommendation would be appreciated. Thanks

Q: For Crypto exposure, I have a 1.5% position in COIN, a 2% position in GLXY (up 25%) and a .5% position in MSTE. I want to invest another 1.5% by either bringing COIN to 3% or investing in HOOD at 1.5%. Would you add to COIN or diversify into HOOD? Would you be comfortable with 5.5% total in diversified Crypto holdings?

Q: I have had EFN on a buy watchlist but always hesitated because CFRA, a firm whose analyses I have found useful and reliable, gave EFN a poor rating. Last week RBC’s Toronto office initiated coverage and rated EFN its ‘top growth stock’. Please give your own analysis and comments on EFN, including possible vulnerability to tariff flip-flops; soundness of business model; competitive position; and strength of management. Share value has risen rapidly and EFN is at 52-week highs. I am tempted to wait for a better price, but good companies have a habit of 'running away' from one.
