Investment Q&A

Q: Hi. I've built positions across the digital asset and payments ecosystem that I'd appreciate your perspective on. My current holdings include: direct Bitcoin ownership (DCA monthly for store of value), FETH (smart contract infrastructure exposure), GLXY (institutional crypto services plus AI compute optionality), and PYPL (established fintech playing multiple angles; PYUSD stablecoin, BNPL, crypto trading, traditional payments, and I use PYPL quite a lot myself). I do also own JPM.

I'm considering adding CRCL but struggling with the valuation at 79x forward earnings (although it is 31x 2 years forward). My thesis is that I already capture stablecoin growth multiple ways; FETH captures a lot of stablecoin volume, GLXY services institutional stablecoin users, and PYPL's PYUSD gives me direct issuer exposure with less regulatory risk since they have diversified revenue streams.

CRCL feels like paying growth multiples for what I think might become a "utility-like" business earning regulated fees. Also, if stablecoins become critical infrastructure the regulatory hammer could fall hardest on pure-play issuers like Circle versus diversified players.

I think my current portfolio seems to cover the bases; Bitcoin for macro crypto adoption, Ethereum for DeFi/Web3 infrastructure, GLXY for the picks-and-shovels institutional play, and PYPL for the mainstream fintech integration angle (+ maybe JPM).

Am I missing something by passing on CRCL? I'm interested your thoughts on whether CRCL offers unique exposure I'm not getting elsewhere? Or if there is something I am overlooking?

Q: Peter Thiel's hedge fund and SoftBank Group Corp. have sold off their Nvidia shares.

What is your opinion on this.

Would you be selling too?

Thank you.

Q: I’m considering selling half of my Lumine and Topicus to add to my Dollarama or WSP Global in this time of volatility. Thoughts ???

Q: I am down 40% with LMN, with the recent sell offs of both CSU and LMN, would you see this as good opportunity to 1. DCA aggressively with LMN as we're expecting a bounce back in the near future. 2. DCA LMN moderately and open a new position in CSU to then hold both CSU and LMN 3. DCA slightly with LMN and open a bigger position with CSU.

Would you see owning both CSU and LMN as a good decision? Is there one you would own over the other?

I am a long term investor and not necessarily worried about the short term downfall we've experienced.

Thanks!

Q: This Tech Could Be Worth 52X Tesla
Are You Ready for AI's Potential Supercycle Phase?

fool-cap-logo Motley Fool Staff Investing November 16, 2025.

Amazon’s Jeff Bezos surprised investors when he revealed that one emerging technology is the key to Amazon’s future success…

In fact, Bezos argued that “it’s hard to overstate the impact” of this game-changing technology.

Back in 2017, legendary tech analyst Cathie Wood, CEO of ARK Invest, wholeheartedly agreed, echoing that this opportunity could present a “$17 Trillion opportunity by 2037.

Do you know what they are talking about or is this a scam?

Thank you.

Q: ARTY NYSE Arca/US iShares Future AI & Tech ETF

Worth buying or not?

Thank you.

Q: May I have your current thoughts on BBAI? Is the stock still 15x sales? Is PLTR a competitor? Thank you for your assistance.
Jim

Q: Any news to account for current 12%price drop so far today?

Q: I look at LMN everyday and I start to cry. What is going on that it can slide every day?

How do I stop crying?

Q: what are your thoughts about the earnings, is it a buy, sell or hold?

Q: Hi, thoughts on the 1/4 please. Do financials still appear on track?
I thought at one time 5i indicated that they are/were nearing profitability. 5i's Company EPS estimates page shows fy2025 and fy2026 still at a loss of .08 and .07 cents, respectively.
I do own the stock and was accumulating around the $4.50-5 but they are down a fair bit from the 52 week high now. Stay the course?

cheers,
Steve

Q: Please comment on the Earnings for Zedcor.

Q: Would you add today after the recent earnings?

Q: CSU and TOI are slowly starting to recover but not LMN. Also I see now that there is a constant seller fo LMN at $25.70 and they are putting blacks of 5K and 10K to sell.

Do you think this is a fund trying to get out and also do funds also sell for end of the year tax selling purposes?

thanks

Q: COHR is doing really well these days. Thank you for your help in assessing this company.
Jim

Q: hi, any idea on the price action for LMN today? I don't see any news. and do you believe a full position could be acquired at these levels?
cheers, Chris

Q: Why is this performing so poorly lately? I’m down 20% and am tempted to sell it because crypto and the market are ripping higher today and Galaxy is down!

Q: I've been amused by the latest Tesla news in regard to the new pay for musk. Correct me if I'm wrong but the latest earnings for Tesla is around a 100 billion dollars. If the pay for musk goes into effect that would leave Tesla in a deficit of approximately 900 billion dollars. Now I know there is more to this than meets the eye, so could you please explain how Tesla intends to square this circle.

Q: Please update your opinion on CRCL (last Q was Nov 4) based on today's price of $98. Quite a fall from the peak and JP Morgan among others have recently downgraded with targets in the $90's. I have been waiting for an entry point and would respectfully ask that you explain why it continues to fall, how low you think it could go based on news, fundamentals and technical support and what your strategy would be for building a full position. If you would wait, please outline a target price and what you would need to see to get involved. A cherry on top would be a two year price target, what needs to happen for that target to be achieved and a percentage chance of that happening.

Thank you very kindly for the excellent ongoing analysis.

Q: what do you think of this stock and why the big drop today
thanks
