Q: Hello 5I,

I stumbled across an interesting U.S. small cap in energy supporting Data Centres (the AI play) as well ancillary sectors and I wanted to get your thoughts on it - WLDN.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to the 5i team for helping out all the DIY investors.

Cheers and all the best!

Q: In the webinar you spoke about CASY. I did some research and really like this company. Performance has been outstanding, +44% YTD.

I own 5000 shares of ATD and it in contrast has been languishing - 7% YTD and at the same level as September 2024.

Do you think this would be a good switch, ATD to CASY?

Q: I'm OK waiting for my answer to this question into Jan 2026, I had some time now so wanted to pen my question.

Every year I do a year end review of my portfolio's, one thing I look at is weightings. A couple years ago I asked 5i a weighting related Q wrt Brookfield. I had BN, BAM, BEP and BIP I had roughly 4% weighting in each, 16% total Brookfield exposure. This same question has been asked by other 5i members and you have been pretty consistent with your advice. I wanted to know if it was OK being a splitter vs a lumper, ie, I have 4 stocks at 4% weighting, you were comfortable with that but did caution about much more wrt 16%.

So, here I am, asking myself a similar kind of question with a different twist. Alphabet now makes up +/-16% of my portfolio weighting. 16% weighting in a single stock is likely too much, I get that. The twist I referenced is looking at Alphabet in terms of the various business lines. Search (advertising), You Tube, Chrome, Data Centers, Waymo, various Ai elements - Gemini, TPU's etc, Pixel, Android etc. Yes, I have 16% of my portfolio in Alphabet, but I'm wondering if it's OK to look at it as 6 significant lines of business at 16% weighting. In this scenario, I'd have 2.5% to 3% weighting per business line making it more palatable.

I'm interested in your thoughts

Q: Non-urgent question. Please respond at your convenience.
Can you please review and comment on their recent financials/performance?

Share price has dropped from their recent highs and 7% dividend seems attractive.
Can you also give your opinion on dividend sustainability?
