Q: Hi I currently hold these US companies. Can you please suggest your top 10 US companies that would compliment these the best for a long term hold? In order ideally. A growth rating 1-10 (10 being the best) and a risk rating 1-10(10 being the riskiest)

Thanks so much

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: Hello 5i,

I'm considering an option's strategy that would allow me to capture the upside to stock ideas (e.g., smaller cap companies) in cases where I would prefer to not purchase the stock, as I already have quite a few stocks especially in the technology sector. For example, I was thinking of buying a few call options for CLBT at a strike price of $20, expiring Jan. 16, 2026 for around $0.65. I would sell to close the options a bit ahead of the expiry date if the stock price is above $20. I have previously sold puts for things like AXON and CLS but then the stock price took off and I was left with a reasonable premium but nothing compared to the price appreciation. I would appreciate any thoughts you have about this idea. Also wondering what your top 5 ideas might be for the US market with a strike price/timeframe for the option.

Thanks so much,
Lisa

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?
Thanks

Q: In an otherwise diversified TFSA - I'm looking at adding a small (aggressive) position - given the current price on some of the above and many recent questions/comments on others - I've come up with some candidates.

Can you give me your thoughts on which one(s) you might choose?

Thanks,

Terry

Q: CSU has grown too large a position in my portfolio, and I am very reluctantly (sadly even) forcing myself to sell a portion.

Along with some additional free capital, I am considering adding four new positions.

I am indifferent to industry, size or region. This is all about growth.

I am willing to hold for many years, but I want companies that are proven winners and very well-positioned to grow aggressively in the long term. Ideally, companies that are standouts in their industry.

How would you rank the above positions in terms of risk (1-10), short-term growth (1-10) and long-term growth (1-10)?

If you have additional suggestions not on my list that may be more suitable, please include them in your analysis.

Thanks for your outstanding service. I owe the bulk of my financial success to you and your team.

Subtract as many credits as needed.

Q: Here are two stocks that well performed since the last weeks. In view of rebalancing somewhat a portfolio, do you consider it's a good time now to envisage some trimming, or do you think the momentum has a good probability to be continued on the mid term?

Thank you very much in advance

Q: One would think that CLS, HPS.A and VRT would be screaming buys if Trump said "just kidding" and ended his tariff war tomorrow. But I wonder if this is true. What are the chances that AI/data centre stocks were in a bubble and all it needed to burst was a new low energy search engine like DeepSeek? Is it possible that the wider market chaos is just masking an inevitable re-pricing of AI and data centre stocks? If so, the current lower price for these stocks may not be the screaming buy they might appear to be.
