Investment Q&A

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

Q: Does Ayar Labs have a call sign? My phone shows its call sign as AYARZZX "Ayar Labs - Company Level" on the NASDAQ exchange and indicates trading since December 2025 but RBC doesn't seem to recognize the company. I believe NVDA & AMD are so called strategic investors. It seems their chips use fibre optics instead of copper which may help reduce costs, as silica may be less expensive to make compared to copper. Fibre cabling may also generate less heat buildup and so demand less cooling. Any thoughts you have would be appreciated.
Regards,
Jim

Q: Hello, can you comment on these drone makers? I know DPRO is very small but is Canadian. Otherwise, between KTOS and AVAV, what would be your pick today and why? Thanks.

Q: I own NBIS shares and continue to hold with the thought that the market is not either recognizing or giving credit to the company for the expected surge in revenue and hopefully earnings growth in the coming 12-15 months. Do you continue to support this premise?
Also what are your thoughts on this company as a takeover possibility? Who might be interested and why?

Q: Dear Peter et al:


I am long term holder of CSCO. I have made decent profit. Sometime ago to my question, you mentioned that it can be held still didn't see any problem with it.
But more recently I am hearing rumblings that ANET is better suited for AI going forward? Should one switch? It is in my Regd a/c. So, no tax implications.

Q: I understand NVDA is putting 2Billion each into both COHR & LITE. I’m happy with COHR, up almost 400% now at a 5% weighting. Probably should start to look at selling some to keep the weighting down. Is LITE investable with its 220 P/E? One other question is NVDA getting shares for their 2 Billion?

Q: With all the beaten down stocks that are assumed to be "doomed" by AI (i.e. SHOP, TRI, etc.) what are your top 2-3 buying opportunities for an investor with a 5+ year investment horizon?

Q: Hi, trying to figure out this market with AI and all that factors into it is challenging (for me). I have DSG which have a big loss on in my TFSA.
Thinking of selling it and buying equal amounts of WSP, BN and SHOP, which I already own.
Question is wait it out with DSG it is a great company, or in your opinion the the other three will look better in 5 years. Thanks.

Q: Can you provide your comments on the growth profiles, historical and in the next few years, for both of them?
Which one of the two would you side with today, if growth and valuation both are equally important. Suggest if you have a new name instead.

Q: After recent news/earnings and along the thinking that AI will not completely replace SAAS but work along side it and even provide positive tailwinds, do you think its time to rotate a bit more from hardware to software or proceed with caution still? I hold CLS, NVDA, NBIS, VRT in hardware and CSU,LMN,TOI,SPOT, SHOP,CRWD,BKNG,TRI in software. Also own GOOG. I'm trying to find the right balance. If we look at SOXX/IGV, are we going to see mean reversion back to the mean?

Also what part of the market or credit cycle do you think we are in? Mid to late cycle? Should we be more defensive or still slowly adding to growth names? Thanks!
