Q: Good morning 5i team
How much of a strategic threat does 5i feel global Fintech is to the largest Canadian banks? And, what do you the Canadian banks doing to ensure their competitive position?
The July 17th Economist article "The funding frenzy" notes "a funding round in June valued Klarna, a Swedish 'buy now, pay later' start-up at US$46 billion." They quote other similar examples. Smart folks are making these investment decisions in finch start-ups What should the small investor be considering today about their investments in Canadian banks?
Thank you.

Q: I hope all is well. My portfolio is reasonably well diversified (in my opinion) and I have some extra cash to invest in an unregistered account. Would you have any reservations about investing in theses three stocks equally i.e., NVDA, QCOM, MU (it would be a relatively small position in each). I know you like the first two but I don't understand what the issues would be with MU. Thanks again.

However, it is getting near ist price the week of its issue and 5I are positive on it long term. I realize you cannot pick bottoms but is there a price wher you feel it "should not go lower"

Q: In a receent article in Barrons a 'new' sector called 'observability' was referenced. This is a fancy word for companies that provide third party mangement of IT infrastructure of I assume large companies. They touted Datadog and Dynatrace as opportunities although expensive on an EPS basis. Any thoughts on the sector and these stocks?
