Q: Good day gentlemen. A bit of a rally in this name with Ai momentum of recent days. What do you see short term with earnings out in a little over a month.
Buy ,Sell or Hold.
Thanks David

Q: Good morning, Is there any particular reason why Lumine has had so many down days recently, thanks?

Q: Hello 5i,

We have a small position of ACLS to sell and add to VRT or SMCI, or open a new position of DRX.

Which stock has your highest conviction today?

Thank you
D&J

Q: Whats popping this?

Thx

Q: I believe the sale of NVEI has gone through. Is that correct? Should I just sell my existing stocks now or wait til the sale goes through. Do you know when that would be? - thanks.

Q: BB is in a downtrend, but why 10% and 5% in the last 2 days? Anything on the proposed split? Thanks.

Q: With approx 17% of their revenue coming from one customer (Apple), would you consider that too much single customer concentration risk for Broadcom? Thank you

Q: Am I correct in thinking it is highly unlikely that ROKU goes to zero? Would you currently consider it a buy, sell or hold? Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i - how would you rank the following tech companies at todays prices for new positions:

LSPD, LMN, KXS, SHOP, CSU, GOOG, DSG

Thanks, Neil

Q: Thoughts on ADBE quarter?

Q: Hello,

I have done very well and am very happy with my investment in CSU - thank you.

I would appreciate your insight on characterizing the return one receives from a co. like this.

Einstein called compound interest the 8th wonder of the world and IMO the return from CSU seems to be a phenomena beyond that.

With SHOP your return is based on capital appreciation. If it goes up you win - goes down you lose.

With BCE your return is based on a dividend and possible capital appreciation. Almost a paid rent for your money invested and with a hoped for capital gain.

With CSU the actual dividend (rent) is miniscule, however the spin-offs are like a special dividend (equity rent?) with a shared equity multiplier plus capital appreciation of the mother co.

In the past 4 yrs my CSU stock has tripled in capital value and spun off co's that their current value works out to 16% annual return. The annual growth of these co's are also expected to grow.

You have long spoke positively of CSU and maybe now, with some data, I am just seeing why.

Thank you

Q: Jason D. mentioned PRL uses AI & credit unions to make loans rather than the usual face to face. Presume there are cost savings. Can you expand on these details?

Now that GSY has reached a loan book of $4bill. & has a $6bill. target for the end of 2026, can you make a guess as to what that might mean for earnings? Has there been a relationship on their journey from $1bill. to $4bill.?

Jason D. mentioned whispers CSU is getting set to do another spinoff. Hear anything? Maybe that accounts for current weakness in LMN.

Q: My TFSA is comprised of EIF (up), WELL ( down) and LMN ( up ) in equal amounts and is 4 % of my total ( cash and RRIF ) portfolios. I am not afraid of risk in my TFSA. I am looking at replacing EIF with HTA with the eventual goal of having HTA as my sole RRIF holding. I hold HTA
(5%) and EIF (2%) in my other portfolios. I like HTA for the combination of tech with high income. EIF has been good to me over the years but has been in decline for quite some time. Has something fundamental changed with this company ? HTA would be my only tech holding amongst my portfolios being almost 10% of value. Does this approach make sense?
Thanks. Derek

Q: Hi there what’s your thoughts on all the announcements by O yesterday?

Is it too late to buy or do you see a good run up in the coming few years?

Thanks!

Q: Hi Peter, now that the split is done, what would be a good entry point for NVDA. Thanks

Q: Hi,

Thinking of consolidating two smaller positions into one. Can you give me your preference between Celestica and Converge for a three-year hold, with a brief rationale. Thanks!

Brad

Q: With the sweet run Nvidia has had, it is getting to be a pretty major chunk of my portfolio and I need to start trimming soon.

With the current momentum and the increased appeal to retail investors after the split, any thoughts on when to trim / when this run will start to ease off?

Thanks,

Jim

Q: AI has been shifting momentum away from stocks of traditional software companies in the tech sector, but CSU has continued to climb to new highs. Is there some reason CSU seems to be immune to present trends, or will they catch up to it?

Jack

Q: Hello 5i Team,
What are your thoughts on ENGH going forward with their push into education, health care, AI and the Middle East? I find the company frustrating as they are siting on a whack of cash and don't take advantage of their NCIB.

Thank you,
Brent

Q: I do not have a position in Microsoft , but I still have what hs become a relatively modest position in AAPL. I don't really want to increase the amount I have in technical stocks nor do I have the cash at this time. So , I am considering selling half my Apple shares and buying Microsoft with the proceeds. This would be in a registered account. Would you consider this advisable at this time ?

Thanks in advance,
