Q: I have read the question history on Quantum related companies and have noted that these 4 seem to be most well known.

Are there any publicly traded, earlier stage (not yet pumped) companies that are worth monitoring for future potential? Not companies you buy today but companies with interesting concepts/potential in this field that could be "next".

Q: Hi there,
Thanks for your past assistance.
I've done well with PRL and I'm wondering if Upstart has the same kind of trajectory.
Do you like this stock short and long term?
If not, can you please recommend an alternative?
Thanks!

Q: My thoughts and prays are with the people of Los Angles. They are going to have to re build. Is there any forestry companies that could see a increase in sales. I presume it would be west coast forestry companies. US or Canadian compaines.

Q: Happy New year 5i!

It's been an interesting start to the year, and I've been watching/reading things that seem to be leaning towards or preparing for a 'fearful' period. Thoughts on this? With deployable cash, would you be getting it in the market quickly, or not be in any rush?

That being said, AXON and CSU have all seemed to back up more significantly than they ever have, and CRWD as well with the exception of the update failure event. IESC, PSN, and MU as well trending lower.

I hold none of these and have some USD free for 2 half, or 1 full position. Would paying the FX to get CSU on sale be your top pick? of the ones mentioned, would you rank them in terms of expected growth over the next 1 - 5 years? please add a 3 or 4 more options in there as well if you have other top picks. Small caps are good too.

I currently hold GOOG NVDA AMZN MSFT POWL ISRG CLBT VRT on the US side.

I don't mind managing holdings in a shorter period of time if needed, but aim to find those long term compounders and let them continue to win.

Thanks for everything!

Q: Hello 5i

Back in 2019 I asked if you could provide a "growthy" USA portfolio.
The above stocks were your recommendations.
Could you provide an updated "growthy" USA portfolio for 2025?
Thank you!

Q: Would you consider KLA and/or ASML as "core" IT/AI holdings for 3-5 years, apart from current M 7 holdings. Among IT/AI opportunities available, how would you rank one or both, given current valuations, and taking into account vulnerabilities [China]. Or, would you suggest 3 others instead.
Thanks

Q: Share price of LLY is down again this morning (January 14) after the company reported results below analysts’ expectations. For the longer term the company’s forward guidance (just-issued) is slightly above expectations. What do you have as PEG please? Given the firm's latest results and fwd guidance, what would you say is a reasonable price range to buy at :
(1) for a longer-term hold ; and
(2) what would be reasonable price range for a parent aged 75 whose portfolios is tilted towards high growth companies— or would you avoid LLY in the latter case? :ao:sab
