Investment Q&A

Q: With this announcement what would you expect in terms of stock performance going forward if approved? Would you have concerns with this if you were an investor? Long term I believe this best of breed company will be fine but if the stock price will drop a fair bit I would rather add at lower levels. I feel like this is a pretty big dilution but what is your opinion? Thanks

Q: Hello Peter and team,
Is NVDA a buy under $280 per share and what is its current PE ratio? I was thinking of buying open text but this company does not seem to get a lot of positive attention (stock hardly moves) in risk on or risk off markets. Do you the current price at $53 is good entry point? Thanks very much.

Q: I currently own TSM and am down a bit as are many of the tech stocks this year. This company had a very good earnings report and provided very positive forward guidance in their last ER report. As well they have a large moat as one of the leading foundries in the world. In short there isn't much not to like in my opinion. However, there always seems to be some question as to when, not if, China will attempt to move on Taiwan similar to Russia and the Ukraine which would have a profound impact on TSM as a world leading semi company given the propensity of the Chinese government to heavily regulate companies in their jurisdiction. Also if TSM became a Chinese company there is also debate as to delisting Chinese stocks on the US stock exchanges if they don't meet the SEC reporting requirements. All speculative at this point I understand.

I am wondering about your thoughts on whether a company like Micron (MU) in the US might be a safer alternative given the current direction of the US government to produce products at home like semiconductors, and the potential for government assistance as well. I also own Nvidia so are they too similar to MU and I should add to NVDA on pullbacks or put some in both?

Q: Hi team. I was fortunate to add to my Nvdia position at $219 a couple of weeks ago. Nvdia has now grown to 7% of my investment portfolio (stocks) and 6% of my total portfolio. I know you can’t get specific with weightings. I do see you typically trim your balance model portfolio around 8% when a winner runs.

Thoughts on how you decide to trim a winner and when?

Q: What 1 US stock and 1 Canadian stock (both in technology space) would you buy today?

Q: Hi 5i, After close to a 40% drop, I’ve initiated a position in NVDA through CDRs. My avgerage cost is $22.75 as of today. I assume after this pop in an oversold market, the stock will retrace further as rates go up and earnings and the North American economies go down. I plan to increase my holdings at target prices in the underlying security. Is this a sound strategy?

Q: I hold TTD, NVDA, UCTT, VEEV, APPS abd AFRM in the USD section of my RRSP. TTD and NVDA are still green, the others are down, 30-50% with AFRM down 76%. Do you see any holdings that should be sold and added to the others?

Q: I have $35,000 CAD to invest in a non registered account. Can you suggest a couple of names worth looking at (US/Can)and why? I have a 7 year time horizon.

Thoughts on how you might deploy? Buy now, in thirds over the next few months or wait?

Thanks
