Investment Q&A

Q: Hi - I know you are big fans of NBIS ( ORCL somewhat) - they are both off 20% + from recent highs - any reason for this sudden loss of momentum and reversal? The rest of tech seems to be doing ok - just profit taking?

Q: Dear Peter et al:

Both NBIS and SMCI report earnings in early November. (7th&10th)

What are your predictions?
I own positions in both, more so in NBIS than in SMCI. BUT not full positions.
I am particularly worried about SMCI as they are notoriously known to report spurious numbers and get "whacked"! But the price seems to hold steady. If anything it seems to be going up slightly.

NBIS has been drifting lower. Is it because Smart money is expecting bad news? Or people locking in their profits?
Tempted to write cash secured puts for NBIS. An easy way to add IMHO. What Strike Price would you suggest for Nov 7th expiry?
(I know I will get assigned if the earnings report goes ugly!)

Many thanks for your words of wisdom.

Q: Hello Peter & Team, I would like invest some fresh money in the market. I am nor sure this is the correct time to invest? market looks like near by correction. Can you please suggest some growth stock? if you have choice to invest only one or two stock what do you prefer on this market? Or better to hold for now? AQN, TOU, LMN, MOS In my watch list but open for any stock

Q: Most successful investors I have read about become rich investing in 3 to 4 consolidated holdings. What do you think of that approach? If you had to sell everything today to invest in 4 stocks which could double in 1-3 years time frame, which will those 4 stocks be. How do you protect yourself from huge drawdowns along the way. On the other hand what do you think about over diversification where you do not invest more than like $2500 per investment and sell half when the stock doubles and leave the rest and continue doing that.

Q: Simple question. What are the 5 best Canadian stocks to hold for 10 years that have no or minimal dividends and are not small caps. What are the 5 best US stocks that are found on the list of CDR’s for a 10 year hold.

Q: Could you tell me which 5 of these TFSA companies you would add money to first in a correction. Could you also give me two, not in this list that you consider better or just as good than these names, for a tfsa.
Thanks for all you do. Gilles

Q: After the recent convertible note offering the market seems positive on it. Whats your thoughts? Can this have a NBIS like moment where it announces a large contract that then validates their position in the data centre build out?

Q: Hi Team,
I was looking for quality growth names that were attractive today for purchase. Geni was on the list due to the recent weakness in the sports betting sector. Do you see it as a opportunity to buy at these levels? Could you also provide a couple names on your radar either cnd or US that you see as particular good buys today for a 10yr hold? Thanks

Shane.

Q: This stock has been rising steadily, without demonstrating earnings.
What are your thoughts about it at this time, given the present economic conditions?

Q: Would you add to NBIS at this price or wait for a pullback?

Thanks for all your help and advice,

Mike

Q: Do you still like these companies here or have they become too highly valued? And which of the two is the better bet?

Q: NBIS is now a 3-bagger for me. Thank you so much! If I were to ask you to pick the "next" NBIS, what would be your top 5 picks today, for a 3 year hold, ranked in order? I have a high risk tolerance.

Q: Have trimmed SHOP and NVDA in my TFSA and am looking to initiate some new positions - all are favourites of 5i - at todays pricing would you favour the most attractive "3" and if so, which 3, or simply buy across the board?

Thanks,

Terry

Q: Do you think NBIS stock is still a good price or is the stock becoming overvalued? Feels like there's lots of hype around it right now.... At what price would you think is IS overvalued?

Q: It's all your fault? For which I'm always grateful for your sound advice. This is a good problem to have. NBIS is now 13% , HOOD 10%, CLS 15% and SHOP 14%. Yes, Im going to trim but the growth prognosis is good for all 4 going forward. What would you advise as decent position size for all 4 going into the 4th quarter?
Thank you David

Q: The time has come to trim some of my NVDA, it simply has grown too large as a percentage of my portfolio. Can you please provide 3 top picks in the US for a long term hold.
Thank you

Q: Between OKTA and S which would you invest in going forward, or is there another that is better. If Crowdstrike and Zscaler are your choices, where else would you deploy money.
Thanks Matthew

Q: I am currently overweight tech in general (36%) and NBIS (9%) in particular. I reluctantly feel I need to reduce my exposure to NBIS and, as I am underweight industrials, am in search of suggestions for growth-focused US industrials. Would you kindly provide 3-5 names of mid to large cap industrials you are reasonably confident can match or outperform the NASDAQ over time? AXON and WSP already held. Thank you.

Q: I may have missed it in another question already asked and apologies if so. Given that this company is based in Europe will it not be negatively impacted by US Tariffs even though they are partnered with Nvidia and Microsoft? If so to what degree would you think that may impact their operations going forward?

Q: Looking to reduce holding size after very favourable gains. What 3 or 4 names in the US would you consider for re deployment? (I hold NBIS already). Thanks.
