Q: I think a lot of utilities tied to the wind-farm industry have taken quite a hit since Trump came back to tilt at windmills (Orsted, for example). But Trump won't be around forever. Assuming a significant rebound following his demise, what companies provide the greatest opportunity going forward? Please include one or two Canadian investment opportunities in your answer.

Q: If HPS.A is already owned at a 3.5% weight, would you consider NVT as well? I heard they do somewhat different things but also overlap in certain areas. Both have a global presence and serve various industries. Would you consider these two great choices for continued electrification and data center growth? If you had to consider 1-2 more names, what would they be? Thanks!

Q: Good morning 5i,

I hold the following industrial/material stocks in my RRSP: GEV (2%), FIX (2%) ETN (1.5%), HEI (1.5%), RTX (1.3%), GE (1.2%), LIN(1.2%), EME (1%), VRT (.5%). I also own AXON (3%).

I would like to increase the weight of some of these positions - ideally through consolidation. Could you please put these in order of conviction (growth) for a 5 - 10+ year hold. Are there any that you would sell outright? Would you recommend any other industrials?

Many thanks!

Q: Could you please provide your analysis of GE Vernova.

We have been interested in the Co, for exposure to Power Infrastructure sector/Nuclear. However, stock has continued to march to new highs, except for past 2 weeks, following a general weakness in most momentum names.

Do you like the Company and would you be comfortable buying at current levels, say $600. after the pull back ? ( More so, stock exhibiting a little bit of support around $585-$595, in Wednesday's trading ).

Thank You

Q: Greetings 5i,

Made a killing on Oklo and sold with the last pop. 114% thank you, Ill take that and run. Possibly will revisit Oklo if there is significant pull back from its highs.

All the same selling Oklo has left a spot in my portfolio where I would have liked to keep something related to the energy needed for all the new AI data centers. My main question is regarding GE Vernova, which I think trades both in CAD and USD. I see that GEV has started construction on a SMR near Toronto with at least 3 others approved. Is this a fair play on the need/push/development of SMRs for Ai and datacenter needs?

Cheers!

Q: A family member was a Long Term employee of GE and acquired substancial shares of GE stock during the Jack Welch era and subsequently left the company for health reasons.

Needless to say the stock performed terribly and his shares languished for years but he held.

Now GE has been spun out into 3 divisions and separate stock issued for each which have performed tremendously in most cases what course of action would you recommend on the 3 new entities based on today's market prices for each.

Q: hello 5i:
Last question asked on GEV was on January 25th. Can you please update your views with respect to P/E, Cash Flow and Free Cash Flow? Debt looks tiny, can you confirm?
Last, I have a small position in HPS.A. Is GEV a direct competitor, and would a US company benefit from the threatened tariffs on other countries? Adding your general opinion on the stock and on the industry would be appreciated.
thanks
Paul L.
