Q: Good morning 5i
You seem to have a lot of confidence in Google. I wonder, though, what unexpected developments could come along and derail Google? For instance Search is a big component for selling advertisement. But, since Chat gp has been developed, I generally direct any questions I have to it, rather than to Google. It does the searching for me. If something like that became widespread I imagine it could be very bad for Google. There may be other detrimental developments, too. I don’t imagine you have a magic answer for this other than just to keep an eye open. But I was wondering whether things like this would dampen your enthusiasm for Google and move you to hold less?

Q: I have approximately $70k cash in my TFSA account that I would like to invest before the end of the year. I currently have the above stocks in my TFSA. My investments in Lightspeed and Unity have taken a big hit (70 to 80% loss) since purchasing these stocks. I understand that I cannot claim losses on investments in my TFSA account. Would you suggest selling off my investments in Lightspeed and Unity and reinvesting these funds? As noted above, I have cash in my TFSA to be invested. Please rank my current TFSA holdings for additional investment considering a 5 to 10 year hold. Thank you for your expertise and best wishes for the Holiday Season.

Q: This Friday, BAM shareholders (but no other Brookfield entity, correct?) will vote on becoming US-domiciled, and, as-such, eligible for inclusion in US indices.

Assuming approval, (a) should this change catalyze an expansion of its P/E multiple (or is that already priced-in), and (b) should this change catalyze, indirectly, a proportional expansion for BN?
