Q: Dear Peter:

This is primarily a BIG THANK YOU note! But for your repeated vote of confidence I wouldn't have taken a position in NBIS. What a POP today, eh?! More than paid for my next year's 5i Subscription!!

Secondarily a quick question. Now that it has gone up (and I sold part of my position today to lock in my profits), should one be tempted to rite Cash secured Sell Puts?
If so, what would be your strike price and exp date?

Many thanks again for your insight and most importantly your "courage of conviction"!.

Q: My son currently has Meta (META), Nebius (NBIS), Amazon (AMZN), and EIF Corp (EIF) in his TFSA, plus an ETF (ZSP) for some diversity. It’s a small portfolio but he really wanted to hold some individual stocks and not just ETFs. Would you be comfortable adding Nvidia (NVDA) and Axon (AXON) at current prices? They are two of my favorite stocks in my non-registered account but I know the prices have really run up. Would you have any better suggestions? Thanks.

Q: The last earnings report was somewhat disappointing with regards to its outlook. What is your current take on this name? It is currently one of three US names I own in my TFSA. Would you recommend to hold or sale and move onto another name? If the later, what would you recommend for a purchase today (considering today's prices for an entry point).

Q: I loved this recent question from Giovanni, big kudos to him and his son for taking the fantastic suggestions from 5i, and GIANT HIGH 5 to 5i team!
So to ask the same question today, my 30ish daughter has about 45k cash in TFSA. Also has some NTDOY, DIS ZQQ and ZEB. Ok with ETFs but I don't think there is as good a chance for towering home runs like NVDA.
Let's grow!

Q: I just saw the spike in CLS stock price today. I’ve been looking to buy but never did. Do you think it’s still a good time to buy or wait?
Would you sell all or some of NBIS or CLBT to buy CLS?

Q: Dear Peter et al:

It seems that my earlier question on NBIS was "swallowed' by cyberspace! So, I am posting it again taking your answers to Claus/Gilles on July 24th into consideration.

It popped up to 57+ and then promptly/very quickly dropped down to 50s. What was all that about? It's earnings are going to be released next week? I see on my iTrade analysts recommendations is a SELL! (Research Team and CFRA) But on other sites it is a BUY! (Interactive Brokers).

What is your take on it's earnings? I know you would say that it is a BUY but for aggressive investors and be mindful of position size! (We get to read your answers between the lines!! You don't like price targets. But let me ask for your price target anyway!!

Worth selling some cash secured puts? Any suggestions for Strike price/Exp date for puts?

I have a small position and am in a loss position.(not huge but a loss nevertheless)

Hope this makes it to your queue in a timely fashion.!
