Q: I've owned GLXY for a while. The last time Bitcoin was at the $50K level, GLXY was significantly higher (roughly $26-27). Any reasons why there is such a difference in the performance given where bitcoin is today? Given the halving is occuring in April, which is typically positive for the price of bitcoin, I would have expected a higher SP. Perhaps there's a catchup trade in the future?

Q: Hi Team,
I was debating if it was time to trim some NVDA after the big gains the stock has had over the past while. Do you have any quality growth names that would you suggest buying with the funds if I do decide to trim at this point? From my end I was thinking of HPS.A...would this be advisable? Or perhaps ISRG. Your opinion would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Shane.

Q: Hello 5i!

What is your is your take on PINS, TEAM and LSPD? Would you be buyer? How would you rank them?

All 3 had good earnings beating estimates but put in dog house for lower projections than anticipated.

Thank you

Q: What you interpret or put value on 1 year target price on yahoo finance. example -
VRT at 63 and 1 year target price is 53
DDOG at 135 and target is 129
AXON at 270 and target 258.
Does this mean these have reached at prices as expected by analyst and as such not much upside (until analyst revise prices)? Don't have position in these. Is it too late to start. Thanks

Q: Can I ask you to do a “mental screen” for a few mid-cap Cdn companies that pay over a 3% dividend while having the potential for above average growth in the medium to longer term? Please omit SIS, PBH, EIF and NWC (already owned) and leave out anything in the energy sector. I’m assuming not much in the small cap space would meet the div. criteria and not much in the large cap space meets the growth criteria, but if you think anything there is compelling please include as well. Thank you.

Q: With today's jump in ARM and current valuation, would you suggest selling and buying back when things settle ? I was tempted to sell when it hit $120+, but did not...

Happy Spring in February!
Thanks

Q: I'm a fairly unsophisticated investor so your advice has been well worth the price.

I am trying to understand the metrics to better value a company.

The price of some companies like Costco and CSU has soared, but you have mentioned such rises not being a bubble if other metrics like P/E ratio are in line with that. Is that the case for these two companies or are they now over-priced?

Also, you seem to be recommending VRT but the P/E ration on that is around 90. That seems very high.

Q: I hold a U.S.$ portfolio of 9 stocks geared to growth - all of which are doing well, in large measure to 5i questions/answers/ comments/suggestions. Thank you for providing such a beneficial service. I have just lightened up on Crowd and would like to add the proceeds to one of the other existing stocks that are at lower percentage holdings (CELH @ 1% , CROX @ 1.5%, Amazon @ 2.2%) . Your thoughts would be appreciated.

Q: Hi,
Would you add to these names currently for a long term hold? Especially CRWD, AXON, CPRT, and BKNG, near or breaking out to new highs. Considering their valuations, growth, etc.. what order would you add and how much conviction (1-10) do you have for each name? Thanks!
