Investment Q&A

Q: Your thoughts on VLTO after a couple of years since it's spin out?

Q: Help me understand why Axon has performed so well. Revenue has grown nicely but

Free cash flow is lumpy (-$190M LTM)
ROIC and ROCE are low (-0.1% and 0% LTM)
Margins are thin (2.8% EBITDA)

It has a lot of hallmarks of a poor investment but it's up 717% over the past 5 years.

Why?

Q: I recently sold Nvidia in my tfsa. I sold a call option on it and it was pretty close to the strike price, I let it get called away, since I am overweight Nvidia. Now that it is down I am tempted to buy it again. I can’t let myself forget the overweight aspect, though. Do you have another suggestion that I could replace it with? I want something nearly as good that I can sell options on, thus no or a small dividend. Sector doesn’t matter. I am also full weight on Shopify and Google. I am also open to smaller stocks that could show growth and are relatively safe—celestica and Nebius?
Thanks

Q: Trump tariffs... impact on e commerce with non US countries. I see US analysts starting to reduce profit targets. I do hold the stock and I see 5i staff also hold the stock. What is your recommended course of action at this point... should I reduce my exposure? What would you do if you owned the stock? I do own GOOG and MSFT considering reducing my AMZN position and allocating it to MFST. Your thoughts would be appreciated. Thank you.

Q: Based on your last comments on SNOW, you said "...expensive and volatile, and expectations are very high. Thus, they perhaps need 'perfect' numbers to see substantial gains."

SNOW nWhat is your take on the earnings I'm assuming you're fine with it from what I'm reading all over the internet.

Can you explain more about the data modernization theme in software and the long term growth (Compound Annual Growth Rate) for Snowflake and has the hype from it's IPO days remained the same, ramp upped or been less muted ..... is this a future 10 bagger, will it be as successful as a Nvidia or Microsoft?

Who are its competitors? and should SNOW be worried about them longer term?

What has to keep working for this stock for it to keep growing in the next decade and what might stop it from rising?

oh and ps....what is the insider ownership looking like and is that a metric I should be looking at for this particular stock?

Thanks again, please take as many credits off as needed to answer.
