Q: Good afternoon 5l
Nvidia seems to be pivoting to AI factories, as they call them. Could you provide a few names of companies which will likely profit from this turn? Perhaps also with a brief description of why you find them interesting.
Thanks

Q: Hello - I am an income investor. My view has been to construct my portfolio with companies that pay growing dividends as a way to offset inflation. With BCE’s announcement of reduced expected dividend growth in the future I am considering shifting that portion of my portfolio somewhere else. Can you please provide the stated expected ranges of dividend growth (as a %) of these companies? Please take all the credits you wish. Thank you

Q: Hello 5i Team

Reviewing the publicly listed mortgage investment corporations (MIC) on the TSX and TSXV.

1 - Are there any others listed on exchange(s) other than the five listed?

4- What would be your ranking - best to worst?

5 - Any other considerations?

Thank you
