Q: Thanks for the recommendation on CLS!! To further the AI supply chain theme...What do you think of these other companies that are wiring, cooling, and building data centres for the future? Besides CLS, which of these do you think offer good upside from today with reasonable risk/reward?

Q: Hi,
I know, lots of names here - feel free to take extra points. These mostly looks pretty good to me technically and I believe they've had good earnings. Of the list which are your favourites? Do any have negative things to be aware of, and if buying what order might you accumulate them in?
Many thanks for all your helpful insight!

Q: You recently answered several questions about NXT. This led me to consider FLEX as an investment. What are your thoughts on FLEX? According to the company profile, FLEX pays a 23.169% dividend once a year. Is this correct? Would you still prefer NXT over FLEX? Thank you

Q: Good Day,

I picked up CALF and HPS.A based on your last answer to my questions. CALF was EXACTLY what I was looking for in that space. HPS.A looks really intriguing, and despite the constant highs on highs providing a bit of apprehension, I think I'll look back later and be happy. Thanks.

Through looking in to NXT as an option, came across FLEX, which it was spun out from, as well as TOI (and CSU by proxy) when looking at LMN.

Would FLEX or NXT have a better future outlook and why? What would you rank the risk and growth potential for each? Are there any other companies like FLEX that you would recommend? Also, the Share price estimate for FLEX is showing a high of 35, which is significantly higher than current. are those pre-NXT spinoff estimates?

For LMN and TOI, same questions.

Thank you

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
Thank you for your past analysis of these two separate companies. I now have another dilemma. FLEX has just had a great quarter and the stock has hit a new 52 week high of $18.01. TD has a TP of $21.00...so all looks good. On the other hand CLS just had a miss and weaker guidance...being punished today...at $13 plus. You have said the story is still intact and they should improve. So... on the one hand I have FLEX which I think I could call a value play vs CLS which I will call at this point a more contrarian play. So in light of there fundamentals going forward which company has great appreciation? In other words is it too late to buy FLEX...better value with CLS in the long run?
Thanks for your opinion...

Q: Peter and His Wonder Team
Recently you gave good analysis as to why FLEX retreated despite a strong QR. You stated it was because they lowered future earning from $0.30 to $0.28-$0.24 for the next quarter. You also stated that you preferred CLS over FLEX. If FLEX is forecasting continued growth for the next 2 years and CLS appears more stagnant...I am wondering why you think CLS has more potential going forward. Or do you just think FLEX will have a misstep. Please clarify. Your analysis is invaluable to us retail investors as we search for facts before we make decisions!
As always...thanks!
