Q: Hello Team,

How would you rank cybersecurity stocks in terms of your favourites and best long term growth. Also, do any have the chance to be apart of the next trillion dollar cos?

What is a good entry for each? Thank you!

Q: Hello, I am interested in the cybersecurity space and I am interested to have your opinion of PANW for a 5-10-year hold. I look at PANW because I only want to buy CDRs. Thanks.

Q: What is your opinion on the use of CDR's (Canadian Deposit Receipts) for the purchase of US Stocks? Also, what type of accounts would be the most beneficial and be the most risk in the use of them, RRSP, TSFA, RESP, or non-registered accounts?
I've recently purchased Palo Alta, Visa and Adobe using CDR's and it seems to be a way of getting US exposure while avoiding the immediate approximate 30% currency exchange, while using a CAD hedging process.
If you are somewhat positive on CDR's, what other US stocks would be good considerations.

thanks,

Q: On the software security front, my opinion is that the general, PANW is slipping a bit and being reigned in by CRWD, NET, ZS. What is your opinion on these, and also S? Could you please rank for growth over the next 5 years?

Q: I held equal positions in Crwd Ftnt and Panw. Last week I trimmed 1/3 of my Crwd at 363 when it bounced up for a large gain. Crwd has dropped back a bit to the 320s. I am thinking of selling my Panw at a small gain and buying back my Crwd and adding to Ftnt.
What do you think of this plan? I appreciate all your good advice.
Thanks Peter

Q: Digital Currency

With the long-rumored conversion of US currency to digital format, and presumably Canadian followup, what types of companies will most profit from these changes and what specific recommendations do you have? Are there any overall structural changes to handling a portfolio that you suggest?
Thanks for your ongoing great service.

Q: Hi,
Would you have any concerns for CRWD's upcoming earnings report? Given that PANW got hit fairly hard after their recent earnings, I am wondering if we might see something similar on CRWD, and whether or not today's drop is a bit of a heads' up something is about the change? Any thoughts you can offer would be much appreciated!
Thanks,
Dawn

Q: Hello Peter,

Sam Altman wants to raise $7T for AI chips in the future. He's looking to the UAE for investments. Thoughts, comments? Will this likely be a new private venture or is there a possibility that he may explore any current publicly traded firms to partner (in terms of funnelling cash into, etc.)?

Next, what are some names that could benefit from this current theme and or Sam and others from diving into the chip design, manufacturers, etc. What are your top names for years out in this space, and a few comments on each. Let's rock!

Finally, Cybersecurity and protection of critical infrastructure is and will be huge. Top names in this space, ranked in terms of future outperformance?

Q: I note that one can now buy PANW via a CDR in Canada. In looking at PANW today, after the 28% drop in SP on Wed, there are at least 2 US law firms soliciting clients for a possible suit. The company didn't have a great quarter so they got punished. Not a crime. Market fluctuation. Price was lofty. Are these potential suits just noise that most companies deal with from time to time, or is there cause for concern? Wanting to buy at the discounted price, but should perhaps look elsewhere.

Q: hi folks:

would you agree that panw and crwd are the 2 'best' (of the better) c-security firms?

if so, and given the market hit panw is taking, would you consider it a worthwhile upgrade (high grade) to transfer FTNT or even from hack/cybr (realizing an etf should be less volatile) to one of the above 2?


thanks in advance

Q: JPM has had a decent run but I'm thinking of swapping it for Mastercard. Can I get your thoughts please?

Palo Alto has also been terrific, but I'm trying to add more AI into my portfolio. I'd like to sell it and find a new name, CDN or US. I own MSFT, AAPL, Salesforce, GOOG, Meta, NVDA, Constellation, Shopify and Kinaxis. I was thinking of Taiwan Semi, AMD or Broadcom, but can I get your thoughts please?
