Investment Q&A

Q: I see no questions on PRCT. Can you please provide your opinion?

Q: Your last question on this company is from 2021 and it has done rather well since then, up around 330%. What would be your current assessment?

Q: Hello,
The news release as of yesterday Sept 22, 2025, , "BitMine sells approximately 5.22 million shares at $70.00 per share and approximately 10.4 million warrants with a strike price of $87.50

BitMine common share sale is a 14% premium to the closing price of BitMine Common Stock on September 19, 2025

BitMine remains supported by a premier group of institutional investors including ARK's Cathie Wood, MOZAYYX, Founders Fund, Bill Miller III, Pantera, Kraken, DCG, Galaxy Digital and personal investor Thomas "Tom" Lee to support BitMine's goal of acquiring 5% of ETH"

Why would institutions pay a premium when they can simply buy it at market price for less than the $70 offering.. is it because at the market price which is less than $70, they won't get as many shares? I would appreciate your thoughts..

Q: If I am reading my sources correctly, NBIS has a short interest of about 8.2%. Isn’t this quite high for a stock that has already increased a lot this year? What are the bears thinking and could there be more upside in a squeeze?

Q: Hello - always enjoy Q&A from submitters and your helpful, value-added responses. I purchased LNTH a few months back expecting an upside and a long term hold. Not sure it was a great idea and wanted your thoughts on it.

Q: Hi Peter,

Thank you for your answer. I would appreciate it if you could answer the second part of my question as well.

"Q: Hi Peter,

I have a question about Nvidia’s proposed $100 billion investment in OpenAI. From my understanding, the funds will be used to purchase Nvidia’s own GPUs. How should investors interpret this circular funding in terms of valuation integrity and long-term sustainability? Does it raise red flags about inflated revenue or distorted market signals? Considering the deep entanglement between Nvidia, OpenAI, and Microsoft, at what point does this trio resemble a functional monopoly in the AI ecosystem? If it walks and quacks like a duck, it is a duck! Is it time for regulators or competitors like Google and AMD to step in and balance the power? I doubt the government knows or will to do anything. I would love to hear your perspective.

Best,
Matt


5i Research Answer:
Certainly NVDA is trying to tie up the ecosystem, that we are fairly sure of. It wants to control the datacentre market, which of course means a captured market for its GPUs. It is a virtous cycle (invest in a company, it buys chips, sells out space in its datacentre, and gets cash flow to buy more space). However it does rely on incremental demand, and this could be a problem. CRWV, for example, is using debt for much of its funding, and this could certainly backfire when demand slows. For now, it is an arms race, though, with insatiable demand requiring massive funding. NVDA has the ability to fund these companies. However, it does not have $100B sitting around. It will come over time (the deal right now is just a letter of intent). NVDA has said that, in a $10B data centre, as an example, it would sell about $3B of GPUs to it. It is not quite a 100% 'selling to itself' as some believe. But it is a circular event, and some accuse NVDA of essentially funding sales to itself. It is more than this, but does carry risks. "

Q: Current thoughts on NXT in relation to green energy (solar) on a global (non-U.S) context?
Are they leaders in their particular field?
Long term aspects/outlook?

Q: Good afternoon;

My initial question was going to be solely about On Holdings. It is almost getting to be one of those companies that'd capture the interest of Peter Lynch, as it is showing itself across sports these days. Yet the real question is likely a bit bigger picture...

Could you provide me with your take on the "Active Wear" apparel market these days? I've provided a few names that may be competitors and there are more. All things being equal is this a sector worth investing in at this time given what seems to be lacklustre performance of many companies and "turnaroud" becoming a bit of a buzzword.

If you could also provide a best - least best top 5 to consider in this sector that would be appreciated.

Thanks as always,

Dave

Q: I've held ACN for a number of years for their blue chip quality and research investments in blockchain. It appears the market believes IT consultants and software firms will be left behind in the AI future. I'm wondering if its too early to make that call and patience is needed, or if ACN is in a declining industry. Appreciate your thoughts.
