Investment Q&A

Q: I am trying to reduce the number of stocks in my portfolio. I hold both these but in small quantities. No tax consequences. Any reason to keep or add to either ? Thoughts on one stock to consider for replacing them, please ?

Q: I purchased SOUN when it was associated with NVIDIA, after which the stock fell 50 percent once that arrangement ended. I am now back to break even. Would you sell or hold. Thanks

Q: Some of the higher risk, more speculative names you've expressed as being interesting have very high short interest:

TMDX: 42%
SOUN: 33%
WULF: 31%

How much would this impact your investment making decision and are there any extra considerations you take into account?

Q: Does the recent earnings affect your view on SOUN as a longer term hold? Would you be comfortable initiating a position now? Thank-you

Q: In the past few weeks you have answered questions and reviewed results on a number of stocks that generate a considerable amount of attention and endorsement by 5i
such as - HOOD,VRT,COIN,PLTR,KSI,APP,IONQ,PRL,GSY,KTOS,SOUN,RKLB,VHI,NBIS and CLS - having digested those recent results and conference calls are there any that have impressed beyond your expectations or, conversely, raised any red flag?

Thanks,

Terry

Q: I purchased SOUN when it was associated with NVIDIA. Now down 50 percent, do you consider it a sell or hold? Thanks

Q: What are your thoughts on Nividia's investments in:
- WeRide -WRD
- Nebius Group - NBIS

- Would you agree and add to a portfolio ?

- Which of the two would you prefer over the other, Or Both...

Thanks,

Q: Can I get your thoughts on SOUN and recent earnings? has the market overly punished it after NVDA's divestiture?

Q: These two (especially SERV) are tanking this A.M, presumably because of the news that NVDA has dissolved their position in both. My initial thoughts are that this changes nothing of substance for the company (SERV) itself, and especially that it still has its deal with UBER. Of course substance and sentiment are separate animals. In general how does one play this? Do you wait a few days and see what transpires, buy more? Sell? Your thoughts are appreciated. Thanks.

Q: Hi. I totally missed the boat on Palantir. When the stock was in the high 20s, my beliefs and lots of what I read was confirming that the stock was over priced (at least that is what I thought), and I felt same as the stock rose to the 30s, 40s, .... and now over a hundred. And I still feel that the stock will need to correct at some time, as it has a trailing P/E in excess of 500 and possibly a P/E of at least 300+ looking forward. I made exactly the same mistake with many other companies such as Netflix, Facebook, .... I know that small, newer companies can exponentially increase their profits as they grow up but there is no guarantee that they will be successful (let alone be excessively successful).
So my question is three fold (please deduct necessary credits).
1. What did I do wrong here? I watched the stock go up and up and never pulled the trigger, thinking it was always too expensive. I sometimes feel it is more of a meme stock.
2. Would you buy Palantir at these prices / why?
3. Do you feel that there may be some other companies out there that may be in their early days (or well established) with lots of room to grow. If yes, your listing a few of your top convictions, along with a sentence (or two) explaining your rationale and intuition would be greatly appreciated.
Thank You.

Q: Happy New Year Peter and Colleagues.

I want to set aside a small percentage of my TFSA for more speculative and less serious investments. With that in mind, could you please provide a few of your best guesses for stocks with quick growth potential? I understand that these will be higher risk but have a chance of outsized growth.
Thanks.

Q: Hi,

I have speculative positions in SOUN and SMCI. Both of them are raising capital and SMCI has been dropped from Nasdaq100 as well. I would like your opinion on this capital raise and the companies in general; independent of my view.

I think SOUN stock price is being pumped and it would be prudent to exit the position and wait for share dilution to happen before entering again.

As far as SMCI is concerned, I think that the company is trying to come clean and start afresh. Even then I am a little suspicious. I also think that the exit from Nasdaq100 had been priced in and should not contribute further to the slide. And that they are raising capital is indicative of a strong order book. It is a matter of establishing credibility and feel it would be rewarding to give them a chance..

How would you deal with these two? Buy or Sell? Since these are speculative positions it is not just a Hold into the year end rally (hopeful).

Regards

Rajiv

Q: Hello 5i
SOUNDHOUND is up 230’ish % since the last question was asked on July 2/24. Can you please give an updated opinion? Is it all hype and no substance or starting to get traction?
Thank you
