Investment Q&A

Q: What is YOUR most recent personal BUY and SELL? Reason for both.

#1 on YOUR personal Watchlist and a reason.

Thank you so much

Q: What would be a great entry price?

Q: Dear Peter et al:

I request you to take off your fundamental analyst hat and put on your options trader hat!
If I were to write (Sell) cash secured puts, which of these companies do you fancy. Will keep July 25th exp as a constant. I usually keep the delta between 15-25. But I know this changes rapidly. On a side note do you give importance to implied volatility?

Feel free to add symbols that YOU fancy for such a trade if you don't like my symbols!!
Many thanks in advance. Happy Canada Day!

Q: What do you think about the announcement of the CEO of this company possible selling a large number of shares?

Q: Good morning. Thank you for your timely advice to trim AGX & CRS, as a result I have $16K U.S to re-invest.
Do I invest in this newer wave of investors in HOOD or do I choose something in line with the Ai theme?

Thank you. David

Q: I've recently come across this ETF on the NEO exchange. It has a collection of US stocks, boasts a 35% annual return, and has an unusually high MER. Could you give me your opinion on it, please? It's not listed on your site.

Q: On semi-conductor chips, I already own NVDA (since 2023). Considering adding another with your help.
I really don't see chip demand letting up anytime soon (Ai, robotics, autonomous vehicles, cellphones, IoT, etc).
With TSMC opening mfg plants in Arizona, maybe some of the geopolitical risk is tempered now.
Is QComm the dark horse?

THX.

Q: BN is sitting at 7.5%, AXON - BKNG are 5% and the rest are 3% positions totaling approx. 83% of my stock assets. I have some 1-2% positions in my cash account (GSY, ATZ, PRL, CLBT, HPS.a, BNS,SU, TMDX, TVK and CNQ. I'm heavy tech, financials and industrials going into H2 2025. Would you add to, remove or change anything is this was your account (assuming you're 52 and plan to retire in 8 years). Not looking for a person allocation but rather if it was you, what might you be looking to adjust, if anything. Note I have no utilities currently. Thanks and have a great weekend.

Q: Role play. You're you giving yourself advice:

Assuming the market is going to puke all over itself today, what are you buying and how long are you waiting to pull the trigger on it?

Everything is long term hold.

Thanks

Q: I hold all these tech stocks as part of a well diversified portfolio with weightings below. Tech stocks are 25% weight in my overall portfolio. The issue I'm having is determining how many to hold in this sector and what weight to allocate each. All new names that I see on my potential watchlist with high growth seem to be all tech names as well (CRWV, CRCL, SRAD, GENI, RDDT, etc..) but I'm hesitant adding more tech if my holdings are already high quality unless one of them is dragging its feet. I'm trying to balance between holding long term compounders like CSU, LMN, TOI vs high growth shorter term names like NBIS, VRT, CLS that are benefitting from AI tailwinds which could turn quicker. Do I hold 5 companies at 5% or 10 companies at a mix between 2%-5%.

Do you see any overlap here in names that could be combined? If you had to rank these names based on growth and risk/reward, what would they be currently for the next 5-10 years? What is the high level process you go through when trying to determine between candidates for a sector? Thank you!

Q: I came across YNVD (Not listed on your site) when searching for the Canadian hedged NVDA. It appears to be a fund that holds only NVDA, is both hedged and covered call, and has an absurdly high yield. Would you advise buying some, and if so, would you put it in a registered account/tfsa for tax purposes?

Q: Can you please discuss NVDA moving forward? I can’t help but notice you recommended them noticeably more in the past. Are you less interested in NVDA, or is it simply the added AI competition now in the market? It is up just shy of 10% the past 12 months, which is significantly lower than its historical run. Is it slowing down to the point of trimming? Taking profits ? Selling? Or simply buying more?

Thanks so much

Q: Hi you reference the CEO as a genius. Any other companies with a CEO or management would could say are as close to PLTR management?

Q: I recently sold AMD to harvest a tax loss with the intention of repurchasing it after 30 days, however I am not rethinking the strategy and buy NVDA instead as it seems to have stronger prospects. In effect, which of these two companies do you think is a better investment today?
