Q: Good morning,

Can I please get your thoughts regarding the likelihood of a strong bounce for SMCI after the dust settles from the Hindenburg report and delayed filing brouhaha? Is it likely that they still go ahead with the 10:1 planned stock split? Thanks. Brad

Q: In the past few months we have purchased a 3% position in LMN at a cost of 33.73 per share. We are currently content to hold these shares indefinitely. Currently LMN's parent (CSU) has about 20 million shares outstanding while LMN has about 250 million shares. As a sometime sceptic, I wonder if the creation of LMN (and TOP) by CSU is a tool for CSU to raise capital? Appreciate any comments you may have on this. Much thanks.
Cyril

Q: Thanks, 5i for your efforts that have meaningfully helped me to a more secure retirement which I am enjoying now. I do have a question: please can you compare and contrast PLTR and KXS going forward?

Q: This question is about small TFSA with 98% Canadian equities with 32.06% total weight in the technical sector. Weight for LMN, SHOP and DSG are close to 5i Bal portfolio but CSU is at 14.8% (Thank you). All these names are at profit.

Question 1 -I am contemplating selling CSU to reduce Canadian exposure and buying MSFT or NVDA What is your opinion of such a move? Any other suggestions in technical space?

Question 2 - This TFSA has no exposure in Consumer Staples. Would you suggest buying COST instead of US technical name? Any other suggestions and entry price?

Much Thanks for your very valuable comments.

Q: It is my understanding that these two companies offer similar services. Are they direct competitors? Can you please compare and contrast these two on balance sheet strength, potential moat, growth prospects and current valuation?

Q: Both SMCI and VRT have dropped significantly over the past 3 months. Do you see that one has stronger turn around potential than the other, and and if you were buying, which would you buy, or would you split the position between both. Thanks!

Q: I own the following in my TFSA - LMND, NVCR, U, FSLY, TWLO. All are down significantly and make up only a small percentage of the total TFSA. Because I can not take a tax loss, would you recommend leaving them tucked away for now? In other words, do any have good potential? Or would you recommend selling and investing elsewhere? Thanks.

Q: Hi 5i Team - I can't remember the source but have heard a comment stating that Web 3 and AI will bolster each other. First of all, do you know what this might mean and also are there any companies that could benefit from it.
Thanks.
