Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Can you compare the two companies. One went down and the other went up. I know you like adding to the winner. How would we rate these companies from risk/reward perspective. Are there any other companies in the space which could become the next NBIS.

Q: I saw your last two answers on this question and was curious what your thoughts are today after the dip? I've been waiting to initiate a position but I understand it's not profitable and they missed earnings. Would you be comfortable initiating a small position for potential huge returns in future?

Q: I reviewed the executive commentary for the most recent quarter of AMD and found it somewhat less than inspiring. Nevertheless the stock did OK. Was this just going along on an up market day or were there hidden gems that I missed
I look forward to your valuable insight.
Thanks

Q: Hello
I understand these are speculative plays. Any idea why bmnr is surging daily whereas sbet surges than drops. From my understanding , sbet keeps issuing shares and as a result is not doing as well. I thought issuing shares to buy more ether was the goal.. i would appreciate your comments.

Q: Hello 5i
Can you give me some feedback on Roku's earnings?
What caused the large fall in stock price?
What is your take on ROKU? Is it worth investing in, or should it be avoided.

Thank you

Q: Palantir CEO Alex Karp on Monday characterized his company’s performance using a simple rule that has historically boded well for tech stock returns.

Karp said in a release that the company’s score with the “Rule of 40” was a 94%


Rule of 40 says that the sum of the revenue growth rate and the profit margin should be 40% or higher.

Do you use this?

How can an average investor measure & use it?

Can it be used on all stocks [company's]?

Thank you.

Q: Do you think that AVGO's high valuation is justified by its growth prospects or is it time to get out? Would you switch to QCOM, which is cheap because of the concerns they are about to lose Apple's business, some other stock, or would you hang in with AVGO?

Q: So, with the blockbuster results and a strong guidance this morning, SHOP stock is flirting with the $222 high recorded on Nov 19, 2021, during the day's trading.
Amazing !!!

What would you do with the stock, if you own a decent position ( 6-7% : similar to 5i portfolios, after today's 20% jump) from a Technical, Fundamental and Portfolio management perspective ?

Thank You

Q: In a recent question, you mentioned this was a solid liquid AI etf. I am also looking at the Canadian CIAIQ. Do the benefits of the former outweigh the Canadian etf? I would prefer buying Canadian wherever possible and wherever it makes a good rational case.

Thanks, as always. Great service.

Q: Good morning Peter and Team!

I have small positions in both SMCI and BKSY. After recent results, I’m considering consolidating into one company.

Which name do you have more conviction in, given a two-year time frame? For some context to other holdings in my portfolio, I have a very overweight position in NVDA and 3.3% in Nebius.

I echo the other members in thanking you for the NBIS idea, as I hadn't heard of this name until it was mentioned by 5i Research!

Thank you,

Brad

Q: Hi,
I'm looking at a clip from the Kobeissi Letter which reads as follows:

BREAKING: Nvidia, $NVDA, and AMD, $AMD, have reportedly agreed to give the US government 15% of their revenues from chip sales in China.

This is being described as an "unusual agreement" with Trump in order to obtain export licenses for the chips.

2025-08-10, 1:56 PM

Having done some quick math, I am thinking this could amount to as much as 2.5 billion based on the value they sold to China last year. If that's correct, then is it possible 2.5 billion amounts to just over 4% of 2024 revenue for NVDA?

These seem like very large numbers to me, but I have to ask whether or not you feel this could be material to NVDA or not?

Of course this tidbit happened to be published on Sunday afternoon, which seems to be the usual time Trump decides to find yet another monkey wrench to hurl at the US economy. I also wonder about the 'unusual arrangement' comment, as that same thing was mentioned in the deal that allowed Japan to purchase US Steel, was it not?

Any thoughts you have to offer would be most welcome.

Thanks!

Q: A lead article in the NYT this morning stated that NVDA and AMD are expected to pay 15% of the money they take in from selling AI chips to China. It appears to be the price they must pay to do business with China. There is some concern about security issues. I would appreciate your take on this news,
