Q: Greetings,

Do you think charting a 200 day SMA and 50 day SMA over 5 years continues to be useful or less so in these volatile times when it's challenging for a line chart to settle down?

Maybe connected, Is there a way of knowing how many individual retails investors are now trading as opposed to 6 years ago? i.e I am wondering if the many who started trading many small amounts for free are making the market more fickle and unstable? (If they still existed, I would ask my shoe shine boy if he had any stock tips!)

Cheers
A

Q: With the increasing focus on the “space race” and ongoing defense spending innovations I am looking for promising investment candidates to take advantage of those themes.

Could you please provide your assessment of Redwire as an investment option.

Thanks as always,

Q: When I think about the large impact AI has had on these companies I can't help but think some contrarian thoughts:
> Even if AI can replicate some of the activities of the engineering firms, there is a lot of liability on these projects they work on which require human intervention / approval / oversight
> Companies would not have the requisite engineering resources in house to verify if what the AI is doing would be safe/reliable for large construction projects
> Infrastructure as a whole will continue to be needed especially if AI growth continues which reinforces the project pipeline
> AI can be used by WSP, STN in-house to lower costs and become more efficient so they could turn around projects faster or cheaper and reduce labour on projects
> Wouldn't AI also allow them to develop more insights/data which in turn could be used to better manage projects / highlight risks or use data to better quote (which in turn reduces losses) etc

I see AI as an enabler of these companies but not necessarily replacing them - maybe on the low-end side of their business where liability/risk isn't high but on big projects you would think working with an outsource 'expert' will still be required

Am I way off in my thinking?

Q: Hi, trying to figure out this market with AI and all that factors into it is challenging (for me). I have DSG which have a big loss on in my TFSA.
Thinking of selling it and buying equal amounts of WSP, BN and SHOP, which I already own.
Question is wait it out with DSG it is a great company, or in your opinion the the other three will look better in 5 years. Thanks.

Q: This question is more of a question on my method of reasoning... I have three what I consider " speculative " positions in my RRIF . SLVO a 3.85% position, GDXY an 11.1% position and GSY which has fallen 40% in price and is now a 4.25% position .... The first two I feel qualified to monitor world events and see the signs of selling. I'm in at a $3000 price of gold and bought SLVO at the same time ..... GSY is what concerns me . My reasoning is that though GSY reports on March 25 it is PRL that will swing the scales on March 2 ... { please correct me if I am wrong on those dates } .... I see the following scenarios .....

1} PRL beats the numbers and is either flat or a modest rise . GSY does the same .

2} PRL doesn't beat the numbers and drags GSY down with it . As both are in the dog house I'm thinking a lot .....

3} GSY once dropping below $100 drops like a stone ....

From a risk reward point of view please critique my reasoning and if it might be prudent to get out of Dodge before March 2nd ?
Thanks for your terrific service ......
