Q: I just sold a position in Regeneron, and I am looking to replace it with another name in the healthcare space. I already hold ISRG, but I am reticent to add to it while it seems to trade sideways. Lilly has performed well, but I am unsure if it is now fully valued.A recent interviewee on CNBC had mentioned Amgen and Gilead as names which could do well. Any suggestions for names to consider in the healthcare space? I’d be okay with both Canadian and US names. Thanks so much, and I look forward to your response.

Q: Greetings 5i, do you see any positives for this company? I know 5i does not place much weight on analyst ratings but the TMX website shows 7 analysts, 1 buy/6 hold ratings, targets range from $7 - $9. Thank you for your insights on this one.

Q: Do you think the Russell 2000 is likely to outperform S&P and NASDAQ in 2026-27? There are many Russell 2000 (and Russell 2000 subset) ETFs. Which would you recommend (CAD and USD) for a) general exposure and b) growth.

Q: Interested to hear more about your thoughts on OUST.

My thoughts on drivers for the stock
> US based company vs industry leader out of China would be a positive
> Partnership w/ NVIDIA
> themes of robotics, physical infrastructure and industrial all seem to be bigger drivers than automotive (which may be a more competitive industry)
> Physical AI as a next growth theme after chips, energy etc
> Focus on software revenues to provide stickier revenues vs chips

Risks for the stock
> Not yet cash flow positive w/ a very high evaluation and a very high stock run up
> Intense competition
> AI risks related to software
> Low insider information
> Stock volatility is high

It has very strong analyst positivity surrounding it but it is quite volatile and seems over priced vs current levels of profitability.

What am I missing on the positives / negatives and do you continue to like this stock?

Q: Hi 5i, scanned comments for review of recent quarter but could not find anything. Pls opine on their results. Is there any reason for the slow grind down over the last year? I would have thought the "big beautiful" bill coming this year would ignite consumer spending hence their toll fees. I'm looking to lighten up on my Cad financial sector holding due to the lack of progress in our economy getting anything built, plus the bleeding of manufacturing jobs and increasing delinquencies. Thx.
