Q: Hello 5i Team,

I'm considering selling my slumping AYX and replacing it with either JD for some China exposure, CRWD, or CRM. Just wondering if I can get your thoughts on this and a ranking for a five year hold. I would be selling AYX with a small gain, but I know it's not expected to do much in the short term and maybe prospects are better elsewhere? Thanks.

Q: First of all, thank you for all your great advice. It's appreciated.
I'm interested in ideas for some good stocks involved in "data protection," please. Basically cyber security I guess, but more specifically the protection of what the everyday individual does on the internet, social media, etc (ie: your personal data) from being collected and used by Facebook, Google, Apple, Amazon, etc, etc, etc.
If you have a differing opinion please feel free to express it, but my thought would be that what is done with our personal data and all the compounding issues that tie into this theme are a societal issue that will hopefully get a lot of attention in the coming years.. decades..
Thank you.

Q: I own a considerable position in this ETF for exposure to Artificial Intelligence . It has done extremely well but seems to be levelling off . Obviously at 3x index , holding it becomes a crap shoot. UBOT may be too risky . Does it make sense to stay in the sector , or what might you recommend ?

Q: Hello Peter, Ryan, and Team,

Can I please get your current thoughts on Acuity Ads and its recent run-up. There's a lot of chatter about it being the next Trade Desk and the share price has more than tripled since I sold my small position in March. Do you think the price rally has room to run, or is this not worth chasing at this point?
As we all know, you win some and you lose some. Fortunately, my shares in Digital Apps have skyrocketed of late, but I can't find any news that directly substantiates the dramatic SP increase. Time to take some off the table or "let the winners run"? Thanks for your insights.

Brad

Q: If one were to take a position in SNOW, is this as good a place as any to jump in? ... around $230ish or should one wait for the steam to settle?

I read your other response, and have done a bit of due diligence, but quite frankly I'm "lost in the clouds" when it comes to these mega-techs. I know that they take a life all their own, valuations be damned, it seems and such stocks become runaways before the valuation catches up.

Would it be worth a full/half/quarter position in a well diversified portfolio. This is my "looking at the future" stock.
