Q: Brookfield was a significant beneficiary of large investments in clean power from the tech giants. Do you see other utilities in Canada or US benefiting similarly in the future? It seems that the utilities space offers a potentially stable growth space going forward with power demand going up. Is this worth the effort, for example, compared to chips or software as a growth investment avenue.

Q: Could you please explain the inter-relationship between these two stocks? I realize one is incorporated etc but I am interested in their holdings, especially because 1. BEPC is outperforming and 2. There are large US contracts that are shaping their business. It was my understanding that each had their own different contracts but they were essentially the same company at a high level. Are they impacted differently by their contracts with Google and Microsoft or will they both benefit equally? Are their operational strategies any different?
Thanks.

Q: Hi There,
I prefer not to buy DLR to convert from CAD to USD because of high MER and I don't mind holding the security for awhile before selling in my USD account. Can you suggest an alternative which is a dual listed CAD stock as a possible DLR replacement that has these characteristics; good trading volume, low bid/ask spread, low volatility, no dividend etc.

Q: What are your thoughts on this company. I am looking to invest a smaller portion initially for a longer term hold. It has manufacturing facilities in both Canada and the U,S, which should shield it from tariffs and operations seem to have improved in the last few years.

Thank you

David

Q: I-MAB (IMAB:Nasdaq) is up 11% today on 4 times the usual volume. Is this a sign of a fundamentally significant move in its prospects? Your insight would be much appreciated as it is well-rated but not by firms/analysts I recognize.
Thanks
David

Q: First, CRCL: Great IPO …. But now be pounded down!
How did this love affair end so quickly and be penalized so severely?

Would you see something similar happening with FIG?

There seems to be a lot of interest in jumping onto that bandwagon right now but I gather your advice is to hold off for now.

Thanks for your insights.
