Investment Q&A

Not investment advice or solicitation to buy/sell securities. Do your own due diligence and/or consult an advisor.

Q: Can you share where CVLT stacks up with some of the growth names more widely discussed here? Where would it rank as an investment compared to NBIS, PNG, ZDC, AXON, CLBT and CLS? Perhaps rank from highest to lowest conviction if not too much trouble. Is it a good entry point today or would you wait to see something specific before initiating a position?

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: I have earmarked about 2% of my portfolio to invest in a new position, and I am primarily seeking growth for this particular investment. I am looking at NBIS, PNG and ZDC as candidates. My portfolio is fairly diversified, so for the purpose of this query, sector exposure need not be a metric upon which these companies should be compared. I have read the recent posts in the question forum on each company, and comments on each one have been favourable. Could you provide a ranking of these companies, and if one needed to be chosen, which one would it be? As always, I appreciate the insight you provide: thanks so much, and I look forward to your response.

Q: Quite a “Bullish” article on NBIS by Benzinga. Not sure if I believe it all however I’m definitely holding. Thank you very much for bringing this company to our (5i’s members) attention.

Q: Around what price would you recommend taking a starter position in NBIS? I read yesterday that they are cancelling 40 million shares and are authorizing a 20% buyback on class A shares, yet not much movement today in price action. Further, are there any options strategies you would recommend for these growth-oriented companies?

Q: Hi 5I
I own both SMCI and NBIS. I’ve done very well with both, but my question is is about moving some or all funds from SMCI to NBIS for the reason NBIS may be a much better company.
Volatility doesn’t bother me, just looking at potential end results. Thanks very much for putting me on these two names as I’ve very well

Q: Sorry, yet again another NBIS & CRWV question.

You say you prefer NBIS over CRWV because of valuation. But I'm also curious if you are a fan of their other non-"Nebius AI" product like Toloka, TripleTen, AvRide.

Seems CRWV is more of a pureplay on what Nebius AI does?

Q: These are my current holdings. Can you suggest 2 usa names to add to this list which might be complementary? I was thinking about NXT but it's jumped today. I would like to add two names that are not at 52 week highs but yet, are also "growthy." Maybe something that has pulled back irrationally like a NXT or UNH (prior to the big gains today). Thank you,

Jason

Q: Good Afternoon
I am attempting to diversify away from NVDA due to its large percentage of my holdings. I also have good gains in both NBIS and VRT although I am comfortable with their current weighting and both have room to grow. Assuming all 3 will somewhat move in unison does it make more sense to pick a non AI related stock rather than add to NBIS and VRT? If that is the case can you give me suggestions on what to add?
Thank you

Q: I already have a little of NBIS. I am wondering if I should get into a CRWV position now that the price has dipped.

Otherwise, I would to my small NBIS position (80 shares @ USD 40).

At what price would you start a half position in CRWV? At what price would add to an existing NBIS position.

Q: During the monday morning strength in the market I trimmed a few high flyers back to +/- 5% positions, now sitting at 12% cash expecting a sale on stocks in the future. RBC portfolio analyzer shows my position in NBIS at 7.5% currently, but if I minus the cash holding its closer to 10 %. To me it makes sense to minus the cash from the total when looking at position sizes, or not?
