Q: Hi Peter and Team,
I recently read an article on bitcoin. In this article, the author identifies a number of companies as equity proxies for bitcoin. Square (SQ), Advanced Micro Devices (AMD) and Goldman Sachs Group (GS) are 3 of the companies mentioned in this article.
Would you please enlighten me on the connection between the 3 above-mentioned companies and bitcoin. Your comments, as always, would be much appreciated.
Cheers,
Q: Good afternoon,
After reading your answer to Rory's question on Dec 4th, I was trying to look up FARO in the company section of your website. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to come up.
Q: Hi,
I would like to get your opinion on whether the Horizon ROBO ETF is a good investment in AI, robotics, automation at this time? Alternatively, do you prefer a company specific approach in this industry and if yes, which companies do you suggest in Canada and/or US?
Thanks for your invaluable service!
Q: Good day and continued thanks for your knowledge and advice.
BOTZ YTD Return is around 55%. What am I missing here and why wouldn't someone jump in for a year or three and see how it goes?
Q: Would you be a buyer at today’s price or would you wait and see for the time being as this rotation on tech bares out. Is it possible a company such as amazon or something could make an offer for shop anytime soon? Thx.

Q: Way back when, the NASDAQ
crashed. I believe it was called dot.com bubble. It took years to recover. The NASDAQ is picking up speed on the down side. How much longer do you think this will last? On Shopify - Dec. 4 on Market Call a technical analyst answering a question on it, said he would sell and buy back later but you wait 30 days and a lot can happen. Your opinion. Thanks Dennis
Q: LITE is very weak today. I don't see any news to account for it. Any thoughts? Also, would you hold or sell at this level. I'm about even on the stock so no ties to it. Thanks
I'm surprised there aren't any recent questions about CGNX. Any reasons for the recent slide? Does the split have anything to do it? And what do you think we can look forward to moving forward? Is it a sell, hold or buy in your opinion?
Q: I’m considering selling my Open Text and purchasing Cisco Systems as it’s been a steady advancer and pays a nice 3% dividend.
Your thoughts on this switch?
Thnx 5i
Q: IPAY is a niche US ETF. Its MER is higher than I like to pay however it is likely the nature of the beast. Do you folks know of any other mobile payments ETFs out there worth researching? Thank you in advance.
Q: Thank you for continued great support and unbiased opinions.
I plotted a few favourite 5i Technology stocks with high P/Es along with the Vanguard Information Technology ETF (NYSEARCA:VGT). Except for CSU (crazy +ve outlier),
they all cluster closely in returns over the long-term (i.e. 15+ years).
So, why bet on a few horses with such risk (P/E > 50) when one can own the track, make about the same return, with much less risk (P/E = 6.6)?
I think we all understand the advantages of ETFs in general, but considering the high P/Es specifically in the Tech sector, it really begs the question above. Thank you.
Q: Hello,
I was reviewing the data available via TD Waterhouse including Thomson Reuters reports, and compared revenue and net income growth in the past 2 years of Amazon, vs Alibaba vs JD.com (all somewhat in the same industry but latter 2 in China).
My read is Alibaba and JD.com have significantly higher growth in both metrics than Amazon.
Would appreciate your review please and thanks.

Q: Hi Team, Recently, JP Morgan listed these 5 US companies as their top AI picks. Would these be 5iR's top five US AI picks? If yes, then can you rank order the picks for me. If not, what would your picks be and/or what would you add/subtract from the above 5. How would you rank order this revised list?
Thanks Team. Chris
Q: Hi Team, can I have your take on MRVL - Marvell Technology Group Ltd.
would this company be classified in the same industries as INTC, NVDA or TXN. Does it have a good growth prospect. I realize that you do not follow US stocks, but been hearing of this company for the first time in the last weeks and last couple days keeps coming up on US sites. Thank You in advance. Sam
