Investment Q&A

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

Q: It will be added to the S&P500 Index on March 18th 2024. For funds and ETF that purchase stocks in the S&P500 do they have to wait until March 18th to buy or can they start now based on the upcoming addition? Also the daily volume for SMIC was ~11.5M on March 8th, what factors will that have when it is added will there be a need for more shares etc? Finally, the recent 5i US webinar there was mention of on-shoring of chip production into the US, will this be a tailwind for SMCI vs NVDA who does most of their manufacturing overseas?

Q: Hi, so, I know I can find out about insider trades on 5i or SEDI. But are there other resources to tell you if certain non insiders are buying big chunks of stock?
The last few days there has been quite a bit of buying on Sangoma, on very little news that I can see. It's great as the price is up quite a bit, but I'm intrigued to learn more but don't know where to look.
I suppose that may be the point though!
If nothing there, any thoughts on why sangoma is moving so much these days?

Q: Digital Currency

With the long-rumored conversion of US currency to digital format, and presumably Canadian followup, what types of companies will most profit from these changes and what specific recommendations do you have? Are there any overall structural changes to handling a portfolio that you suggest?
Thanks for your ongoing great service.

Q: Buffet likes to invest in companies with a moat and hold long term. He has a position in SNOW. Some analysts are calling into question the moat of SNOW. Do you know if SNOW has a decent moat or are they in what is essentially a commodity type business, in which case their margins will be eroded over time?

Thanks.

Q: I’ve seen some analysts on TV talk about price targets for NVDA into the thousands (one as high as $8000). Is this even remotely possible? That would make it the largest company by market cap a few times over. I know it has increased significantly in the past couple of years, but at some point it can’t keep on doubling, can it?

Q: It's not really a question but a testimony, I bought $10,000.00 worth of CSU several years ago. When it spun out TOI, I sold some of my CSU to buy more TOI, and when they spun out LUM I sold some CSU to buy more LUM. I have also sold some CSU to consolidate profits (this was probably a mistake). I now have $88,000.00 from my $10,000.00 investment. Thank you 5i for my 1,000% investment.

Q: What's the deal with lumine, the added shares and large minus in EPS. The bottom line for me as a shareholder is there going to be a precipitous fall in the shares or are we going to see a consolidation ahead. Too many companies add to their share count and then fall. I want to keep the faith but I've been burned before. So what's the verdict; sell, hold or buy.
