Investment Q&A

Q: Joby and Ramaco are each enjoying extreme price movements but for different reasons. Joby is partly owned by Baillie Gifford and Toyota; however, Ramaco has a fundamental history of success from its metallurgical coal operation. Which would be your choice for a speculative 5% purchase in an otherwise diversified portfolio?

Q: Hi 5i
From what I understand google has changed its AI driven search algorithm which will impact reddits traffic and revenues.
How would you evaluate the risk to RDDTs business and what action has reddit taken to fight this.
Where do you see reddit and SP going from here and would 5i start a new position at this time?
How comfortable, (1-10 rating with 1 being highest) would 5i be holding this one heading into earnings?
thx

Q: COST has fallen about 10% in the last 6 weeks or so. This seems to be more than what I would expect from volatility in the course of things. Has there been any news to lead to this? Do you think it is a tariff story? In questions over time, even recently, you have given it a favourable endorsement; do you still have that view, and if so, why? Thanks for your excellent service.

Q: Each of Joby, Rklb, and Metc have done well recently for various reasons. Does Metc's metallurgical coal business make it the more financially solid hence most conservative of the three? Which is best from your perspective?
Thanks!
David

Q: Good afternoon,

I’d like to commend 5i on the well thought out updates!

Looking to form a healthcare position. 3-5 positions. Long term growth in a TFSA.
These could be pharmaceutical, equipment etc etc.


Thank you very much.

Q: Is there any recent news on this company? I'm thinking of moving on from my investment.

Q: ISRG has been limping along for the past several months. I am now down 2%. I also note this stock is not owned by any 5i staff. And yet 5i consistently recommends it as one of the solid high growth stocks to invest in for the next 3-5 years. What is it going to take to get the stock moving again...and (gazing into that crystal ball on your desk) how long before momentum shifts and it starts behaving better? Running out of patience here, especially when there are so many stocks out there that are performing better. Thank you.

Q: Back in May, Craig had asked a question about BRK.B and its current valuation, and the response was:
"Historical multiples have been in the range of 17X to 33X, with an average in the low 20s. It is 25X right now so on the high side of history."

A few questions:
- was this referring to a PE ratio?
- now that it has declined a bit, what is the current valuation multiple?
- is this ratio listed in the BRK.B "profile" page on 5i?

Q: Hi Team,
If adding between these two names (GENI vs SRAD) would you add to one over the other or add to both? Should one "deserve" to be held at a higher weighting?
Thanks

Q: Looking for an additional, fresh, minor holding in Consumer sector-- Bath & Body Works.

With thanks.

Q: Gordon Reid recommended Mas Tec this morning on Market Call. Can I have your opinion on the this company please?

Thanks for all your help.

Q: Do you folks have any current info wrt Opendoor??? Was $0.57 a couple months ago, $1.67 currently!! I read they were considering a reverse stock split a few months ago to stay compliant with the exchange, I can't see any updates to see if they did that?? This stock has been appreciating in price gradually, but big moves last 3 trading sessions.

Q: The latest Q results were excellent and the share price in after hours went into the $130's, yet it has drifted down to the $113 range or almost 15% since late June. How would you rate this stock, do you think it deserves more patience? Thank you. John

Q: What are your thoughts about zero-click search and its eventual impact to Google's bottom line. Personally, I was a HUGE, HUGE user of Google search for more than a decade; however, for the last 12-24 months I (and my spouse) have stopped using it all together, preferring chatbots such as MS-Copilot, ChatGPT and Perplexity. And more recently, I hear that some of the companies that are building these LLM's will also introduce their own browsers. Looking at Google's revenue split by segment, "search" represents 50-60% of their total revenue (albeit less and less every year) but it is still 50-60% of Google's revenue. Any impact to this product line for Google, could have major implications to their revenue stream/bottom line - especially if others abandon Google as I have. You are very bullish on Google, it is trading at lower multiples compared to other Mag7 stocks and am considering an investment. What are your thoughts 3-5-10 years down the road, considering a potential impact on their key revenue stream and/or any other potential risks/benefits you envision. Thank You!

Q: I currently hold this (as well as BN). I do not need the dividend today (will in 15yrs). Are there other mid cap alternatives in the US that could be better choices for total return, over 15yrs?

Q: Hello, I wanted to start a small position in AAPL, but didn't want to convert CDN $ to US$, would you recommend the CDR? . I noticed that since the beginning of the year both the CDR and the US listings are down about the same ~ 16% .. Are there any hidden fees with he CDR . Or would you recommend to just buy the XQQ:CA?
Thanks

Q: Team, I sold LLY from a 4% to a 1% position at $950ish. It’s come down a lot and has been negative to flat recently. Is this a stock you would start adding back? ISRG is a 5% and Well a 3% with LLY at 1%. 5+ year horizon. Is there a different Healthcare firm I should be looking at?

Q: I own ABT, and it’s down 8% today. Would it be a good idea to add to it? Thank you,

Q: At what price point does CPRT become a compelling buy? A month ago you said it was still too expensive to consider, it has dropped nearly 5% since. Would you step in here?

Also, I am very pleased with my subscription upgrade to include analytics. Can you please provide more clarity about your monthly stock selections? Are they meant to be ideas for a trade or for a buy and hold? It would be helpful if you could specify that for each pick.

Thank you

Q: Would you please give me your opinion on this new ticker "GrabAGun Digital Holdings PEW:NYSE ; " .
Thanks
