Q: " I am increasingly interested in shifting from US to Canadian growth stocks and have been looking a little closer at the 5i growth portfolio as a result. I recently acquired a position in PNG.V and am actively looking for another great Canadian growth story. Could you comment on the company (or companies) you would recommend from your growth portfolio that would be the best bets to put new money to work in the current environment?"

Q: Hammond getting whacked again after earnings. Is it because of the lower backlog, share based comp, lower gross margins? All of the above? What are your thoughts going forward? Its had a nice run since the April lows. Would you add here or wait? Have a 2.15% position in the name after the drop today. Thanks!

Q: Hi 5i, this stock always trades the same, slow escalator up, earning release: "Net earnings of $13.4 million in the quarter, significantly impacted by share-based compensation.", and then it takes the elevator down.

Please provide review of results and whether it is still holdable or are there better options.

Thx

Q: Can I ask you to comment on these three favourites with your best guess on the potential impact of AI on their future growth and earnings? I'm guessing based on previous comments that if ZDC is already using AI it will probably be net positive. For PNG possibly the same? But in the recent 5i report on KSI one of the potential risks listed was if a major customer developed their own in-house solutions….one could see how AI might facilitate that and end up being a net negative for KSI? Just curious if you have any thoughts or have picked up anything from any public comments from any of these companies? Thank you.

Q: Crypto. As a retiree, I have stayed away from the whole bitcoin field, and from afar, have watched my nephews exulting in their current success. Even at my age, I am not immune to FOMO. I am not fearful of risk but have stuck to areas that have some form of business that I can wrap my mind around. Like NBIS, and Kraken, thank you very much. If I was to stick my toe in the crypto area, what approach would you suggest? I'm guessing an ETF but which one? Thanks for your ongoing advice, to me and to all your other subscribers. Using 5i guidance over the years, I have a decently performing, balanced portfolio, weighted with RBC, SLF, ENB, the Brookfield gang and the like. A dash of crypto? all the best
