Q: Hi 5i Guys,
I've noticed that NBIS has variously been top, mid and lower mid in your growth rankings for US stocks depending on the day. How are you feeling about its prospects these days - both for a 2 year, 5 year and 10 year horizon?
Thanks so much and hope you are all moving into great holidays soon!

Q: We bought in at USD 130 and today it's at 102.50. Would you consider selling at a loss and repurchasing in a month? Thanks for your opinion

Q: How would you rank these for growth? I own GLXY and NBIS already. GLXY is 3.5% and NBIS 1.62% position. I could add more to NBIS or start new positions in either CIFR, IREN, HUT or HIVE. I see you recently started a new position in HIVE, but assuming you could choose between all of these companies, how would you compare or rank HIVE to HUT, IREN and CIFR as new AI/HPC plays from bitcoin miners? Thanks!

which do you prefer now and why.would you buy both or stay away. dave

Q: Hi 5i Team,

I have been researching the financing models of neocloud operators. It appears that these companies are financing their GPU infrastructure investments at capital costs that significantly exceed their return on invested capital (ROIC). In other words, their cost of capital is materially higher than their ROIC, resulting in a value destruction dynamic where each dollar of new capital deployed actually destroys economic value rather than creating it.

This situation raises questions about sustainability:

1. How are CoreWeave, Nebius, and similar operators financing these substantial infrastructure buildouts, given the mismatch between capital costs and ROIC? Is this model sustainable in the long term, or does it rely on continuous refinancing and favourable market sentiment?

2. Considering Galaxy Digital's recent announcements regarding data center partnerships and infrastructure initiatives, how exposed is Galaxy Digital to these neocloud operators? What percentage of GLXY's revenue or growth expectations is tied to these relationships?

3. If the neocloud financing model proves unsustainable, meaning operators like CoreWeave or Nebius encounter difficulties with refinancing or solvency, what impact would that have on Galaxy Digital's business and financial projections?

I would appreciate your perspective on whether this concern regarding capital structure is reflected in GLXY's valuation, or if it poses an underappreciated risk for investors.

Thank you for your continued insights and research.

Best regards,

Matt

Q: Would you recommend taking a small position in AI at this point, and if so what would be your first choice in a stock and/or ETF?

Q: I have held the trade desk for many years and it is still a double for me. This is my high growth stock in my portfolio. I am planning to sell it and buy a better high growth stock for the future. Could you provide me your best idea ? Thanks

Q: I’ve held BNKG for a little over a year at a very small gain.. It appears to remain fairly resilient in this market which is obviously comforting, yet I struggle with how stagnant the share price seems.

There are plenty of opportunities right now in the market, and was thinking on selling my BKNG. Using that money towards a “better opportunity” at a discount.

This is somewhat of a timing question, yet I feel taking advantage of this correction right now only makes sense.

Thoughts ?

Which 5 companies provide the very best opportunity at their respectful discounts? In order ideally. Thanks

Q: In case of market pullback. What will be your top 5 US and Canadian companies you would like to buy? Considering diversification within these 10 names.

Thank you

Q: Hi team, I own all four of these stocks and would like to increase holdings in two of the four. which two would you add to now?

Q: Do you consider these stocks as buy/hold/sell and if a buy at what point would you ease into each?
