Investment Q&A

Q: Hi, is it ever wrong to own a company and its proxy? For example, KXS and DSG. Is it a zero sum game where owning both will cancel out gains? Or can they grow together? Is it advised to just pick the one you have the most conviction in, or perhaps a half position for both (in general)?

Thanks

Q: What are your thoughts on QQC and CHPS etfs ? Are there other comparable etfs that you prefer ?

Q: Please analyze the earnings and Outlook for CLS. And give us your take.

After the jump in price tonight do you still consider it cheap?

With thanks

Q: May I have your thoughts on the “updated collaboration agreement” between Power Co. SE (Volkswagen) and QS? It seems the agreement has expanded up to 260 million USD from 130 million. According to QS some payments will be received in 2025. It appears to me that sales are anticipated. Profits and positive cash flow are likely still off in the distance. Is the company being de-risked? The stock is down today, possibly more was expected or we are seeing “Buy on rumour sell on news” reaction. Any thoughts you have would be appreciated.

Q: I feel like I ask this question every few months, and suspect that it is a hard one to know with confidence- but here goes. The Trade Desk- it bounces up and down, recently with a drop over 50%. Does this look like a reliable bet going forward? Do you trust its momentum to continue near term? Is there an alternative you would recommend?

Thank you.

Q: What is your take on Galaxy's participation in a group investing in Bitmine Immersion Technologies (BMNR) - not in your system - earlier in July?
I hold Galaxy but not Bitmine which invests in Ethereum but I would like to know about BMNR also.

Q: What do you think about this company?

Q: Hi 5i,
Please explain what I am missing about LMN, which is a name I know you are high on, and which has obviously done well as far as share price appreciation is concerned.
When I review its numbers nothing jumps out at me as a reason to buy - in fact, the opposite: EPS is -1.73; Revenue is substantial but no earnings that I can see - in fact pre-tax profit margin is -210.10%. ROE, ROA and ROC all seem meh to me, while price to sales and price to book seem high.
If it wasn't for 5i's recommendations regarding LMN, based on the numbers I don't think I would give it a second look.
I'm not adverse to owning it, especially given that lots of others seem to want to, and are willing to pay dearly for it. But why would I -or why would anyone else? Is it solely because its a CSU spinoff?
Please enlighten me. Thanks!
Peter

Q: In your opinion how safe is it hold AMD at the current price of this stock?

Thank you.

Q: Dear Peter et al:

It seems that my earlier question on NBIS was "swallowed' by cyberspace! So, I am posting it again taking your answers to Claus/Gilles on July 24th into consideration.

It popped up to 57+ and then promptly/very quickly dropped down to 50s. What was all that about? It's earnings are going to be released next week? I see on my iTrade analysts recommendations is a SELL! (Research Team and CFRA) But on other sites it is a BUY! (Interactive Brokers).

What is your take on it's earnings? I know you would say that it is a BUY but for aggressive investors and be mindful of position size! (We get to read your answers between the lines!! You don't like price targets. But let me ask for your price target anyway!!

Worth selling some cash secured puts? Any suggestions for Strike price/Exp date for puts?

I have a small position and am in a loss position.(not huge but a loss nevertheless)

Hope this makes it to your queue in a timely fashion.!

Q: CLS earnings are comming up; I am holding onto a decent gain, do you think the recent stock run up is too excessive ahead of earnings? Would you hold / sell all / trim ahead of earnings ?

Q: What happened to "flex"? Suddenly dropped over 5% in one day! buy more or sell?

Q: What is your analysis of Amazon? How does it long in the long term? Still a strong hold? Buy? Sell?

Thank you

Q: Hello there,
What are your thoughts on HIVE and its AI / high-performance computing business. Do they have any potential in developing that segment knowing the high amount of funding required to be competitive.
Thank you.

Q: Hi 5i, would you please give me your opinion on RCAT ?, is it a buy ? for a 2-3 year hold, thanks

Q: I have an oversized position in Alphabet. Could you offer some alternatives, yet staying in the similar tech industry, and whose prices seem reasonably priced.

Thanks,

Q: Been reading that Shopify will likely partner with OpenAI with Shopify powering purchase transactions via Shop Pay. If this was to happen what do you anticipate the impact on the stock and revenue will be?

Q: Hi,

With the passing of new crypto legislation and the rise of ETH and stable coins, what do you think is the best way to play this and does it have long term growth potential? Also what are the big risks? Looking for a pick and shovels name. Now that the legislation has been passed, is this more sell the news?

In the crypto space, I'm only holding GLXY (4%), which I'm up 75% and has done very well. I also have core long term holdings in V, JPM, and MA. Could stable coins hurt or benefit these names as well or are they complementary? Been watching CRCL, HOOD and COIN as well but they've been on a tear and I'm hesitant to buy at these levels. Thanks!

Q: When does Otex report and expectations? Thanx.
