Q: Hi I was hoping you could clarify an answer you provided on January 7th about NVDA and trimming below 10%. In past, you have said “ let winners run.”

I’m torn with which approach to take as it seems contradicting. I do hold a very large position in NVDA (exceeding 10%) and need some clarity. Thanks so much.

Q: Hi Peter,
I want to invest in a large cap energy stock that is well run, with solid balance sheet and generate increasing free cash flow. Valuation is lower than peers with lots of upside for capital gain. I’m debating between SU, CNQ and CVX. Which one of these would you pick and why? Or if there is another better candidate? Thanks.

Q: Nvidia has been a ten bagger for me and I’m obviously ecstatic with this momentum. I’ve trimmed with my original stake at just under 100.00. It’s about ten percent of my portfolio. I know you don’t advise on individual portfolios but might it be wise to trim more and diversify further within the sector with Oracle! I also own Vertiv Holdings. Thanks. Your support and knowledge have been tremendously helpful over the years.

Q: Hi 5i Team,

I recently tuned into an interview with Jim Roppel who was previously bullish on the pharma sector, especially Eli Lilly, but he now recommends staying away from Eli Lilly and other pharma stocks given the incoming Trump administration. His position was that although Eli Lilly is and will still be a good company it will likely underperform and it would be better to invest in sectors that the new Trump Administration prefers.

Would you agree with this premise and either lighten up your position in Eli Lilly or even sell a full position for the time being?

Thanks as always,
Jon

Q: Hello.

What are your thoughts on Citi these days? It seems to be getting a lot of positive attention following the restructuring(s) from last year, and seems to be a large US bank favourite for many well known analysts.

Any concerns if one was to consider initiating a 2% position?

Thanks as always.
