Q: Greetings 5i, you have been rating Etsy as a HOLD for some time now, may we please have your updated analysis based on FY2024 results? Profitable, still repurchasing shares, but low growth and can't seem to get any traction, plus headwinds in the current environment. Do you agree? If this is a sell (I would be able to use the loss) would you buy it back in future? Thank you.

Q: Hi 5i, In a recent TD analyst TECK report management stated that, "No material impacts from U.S tariffs — Management addressed the issue of potential tariffs on its conference call, noting that while they sell some finished products from Trail into the U.S., they did not expect the imposition of tariffs to have any meaningful impact on its business other than potential impacts to global GDP". Teck is premier company currently trading at a decent price so it seems as if TECK would be an excellent buy at this time. Can 5i give us 5 more superior quality Canadian stocks that appear to be well positioned to weather the US tariff storm? Yes bulletproof would be nice! Thanks, Chris

Q: Why the sudden sharp drop in GIB.A ? Tariff issues? Long term holder here with large position. Is it time to sell half and use proceeds to buy another large Canadian tech company such as CSU.

Q: Good morning. I'm intrigued by Wealthsimple's offer of bonuses for transferring RRSP etc. What's the catch? Seems the bonuses would accrue over a couple of years but, other than that, is this legit? What do you think about this bid for adding "sticky" accounts? thanks as always

Q: Tradedesk was hammered after its earnings, and IAS saw a positive uptick after its earnings. What is the outlook for each company. I own both and thinking of consolidating the 2 holdings into one holding. What are your thoughts.

Q: Hi there. Can you comment what the impact of GOOG, MFST and AMZN and their creation of their own Quantum chips is on companies like RGTI and IONQ? Are RGTI and IONQ trying to do the same things as the bigger companies but from a weaker position or are they complimentary or poised to benefit from innovations of these larger companies? Obviously RGTI trying to beat GOOG at R&D if they are racing the same race seems like a long shot.

Q: Hello 5 I,

Just wondering the best avenue to invest it Bitcoin or Etherium directly. I dont want to do the whole wallet route and want to hold in my brokerage account. With that said is there a product that directly moves with the ETH and Bitcoin? Are either of them buys in your eyes? Thanks

Q: I am really surprised with your answer to Steven on March 3 about Berkshire, especially "In other words, we wouldn't necessarily want to give BRK a weighting that is materially higher than the typical stock in a portfolio." Shouldn't BRK be treated similarly to an ETF with 40+ quality holding plus private equity? You recommend S&P500 ETF as an alternative... well, there are a lot of investors who want their portfolio to be properly balanced and don't want to hold 33% in technology stocks. BRK-B is much better balanced and stable than S&P500. It also delivered better returns over the past year and 5 years despite the technology boom. Some of us still remember dot com bust of 2001...
