Q: Further to my question on the ability of Shopify to regain its lost glory and confidence among investors, there is another thing that intrigues me . i.e. in your balnced portfolio, among all stocks, Shopify has the lowest return since inception of 2013 ( -20% as of April24). There must be some strong reason for its continued (despite good top and bottom lines! )poor show which we common investors fail to gauge. But it seems to have escaped your eagle eyes too. So the question is whether its portfolio rating of A- is a much inflated one and needs to be revisited.

Q: My question has two aspects. One genral and another one specific
First. numerous analysts and professional investors (and not necessary professional short term traders) use to claim a golden rule saying if a company following poor results in the earnings season, slides 10% or about, you sell immediately and the sooner the better. What is your position on this issue?
Second. What kind of application could be envisaged in the specific case of a stock like Cloudflare with a recent splash of more than 17%?

Thank you very much in advance

Q: Hi,
We have held a small position of PLTR since the IPO. Could you please comment on PLTR’s earnings? Street is obviously not happy. Thinking about switching to VRT. Which company do you think is better going forward PLTR or VRT? We already own NVDA, Google and Meta.
Thanks!
Kerri

Q: I used to own NVDA at <$100/share and foolishly sold it around $300 USD before it started to climb vertically. I am now too chicken to buy back in. What would be some names to own in the AI and Semi conductor theme that are still reasonably priced? Or would you suggest sitting out of this theme for now?
I already own MSFT and GOOG.

Q: Hi
Thank you for your assistance with my portfolio style questions. I am looking at a company, Vertiv? What are their prospects, would this be a good stock to invest for the next 5 years and are there similar stocks that may be better purchases?

Thanks, Len

Q: RBC isnt showing much revenue growth for 2025, considering the massive capex spending announced recently in big tech, I'm thinking of moving on here. I realize it's up 45% ytd and 128% in a year, it's also up 128% in 5 years, of which I've been in the stock, are analysts being too conservative? I already own NVDA and VRT, interested in other high conviction names that will benefit from from the capex?

Q: Hi, Both LMN and TOI faltered post earnings, Thursday, pulling the parent CSU down to the lowest level of past several months of trading. What is your read through to CSU earnings, from these two reports, if that's an indication of some nature ? Thank You

Q: Hi 5i
Globe and Mail shows a "Canadian Insider" transferred in over 157 million shares of LMN, worth over $3.9 billion. When i saw that type of insider activity with Celsius it led to a few months of selling.
1) when big chunks of the company for example, LMN market cap is $9.6 billion, are "transferred in" does that usually portend an early investor is getting out/ moving on to next venture?
2) would such a large shareholder be CSU or the former CEO of Wideorbit or Titanium? I am wondering if those acquired company's CEOs plan to stay with LMN (corporate knowledge and development of business)- have there been any press releases in this regard?
TIA
