Q: Hi there, with such high interest in Chatterbox ( to be listed on the Bombay Stock Exchange on Oct 3) and with the QYOU being a majority shareholder, how should this affect the QYOU stock price going forward? Keeping in mind that India has banned Tik Tok and that Chatterbox is the "Tik Tok" of India.
Thank you,
KT

Q: I own BRK but i want to reduce some USD exposure so i am thinking of moving to the Canadian hedged version.

1. Are there any concerns with that? I assume the return is just the BRK return removing currency fluctuations less hedging costs?
2. Do you know what the cost of the hedging is?
3. I see a few tickers (BRK.NE; BRK.TO)... why are there multiple and what is the best one?

Thank you.

Q: Goeasy has paid and increased dividends consistently for some 10 years. The payout ratios appear to be very reasonable and the growth has been strong. This seems like an enticing stock to carry in a dividend orientated portfolio. 5i has it in the growth portfolio. Why not in your income portfolio as well?

Just curious, Stephen S

Q: Thanks for this idea, Bloomberg Space profiled the satellite imagery industry as in high demand, especially in Europe:

"The rebranding comes during a lucrative year for Earth observation companies like Vantor and competitors like Planet Labs and BlackSky Technology. These firms have seen a spike in deals, revenue and stock prices as countries realize the need for real-time Earth observation data in an increasingly unstable and geopolitically tense world.

European nations in particular have been driving this demand as they seek to lessen their reliance on the US for space-based military capabilities. In March, President Donald Trump’s administration temporarily suspended satellite imagery sharing with Ukraine, which is used to inform the location of Russian troops and infrastructure damage during the war."

Q: Would you be allocating fresh capital to these two names?

Thanks

Q: Your thoughts please on the latest acquisition?

Q: I am currently overweight tech in general (36%) and NBIS (9%) in particular. I reluctantly feel I need to reduce my exposure to NBIS and, as I am underweight industrials, am in search of suggestions for growth-focused US industrials. Would you kindly provide 3-5 names of mid to large cap industrials you are reasonably confident can match or outperform the NASDAQ over time? AXON and WSP already held. Thank you.

Q: Do you have anything negative to say about this company?

IMO this is one of the best gold/silver stock in the market due to a broad/diversified asset base, great management, and good exposure to both gold and silver (65%/35%).

Just wondering what you may not like about TFPM

Q: What % of a growth portfolio would you suggest to be in small caps for an investor in his 50’s?

Q: Hi Team,
Any specific reason on why RDDT is down so much today and yesterday? I am not seeing any specific news. Or is it just crazy volatility at work here like a lot of these growth names lately? Would you consider the recent weakness a time to add or hold at this point?

Thanks,
Shane.

Q: In an earlier question, you said let GSY settle down and it is a buy at $170. Well here we are and is this a screaming buy?
Thanks

Q: I may have missed it in another question already asked and apologies if so. Given that this company is based in Europe will it not be negatively impacted by US Tariffs even though they are partnered with Nvidia and Microsoft? If so to what degree would you think that may impact their operations going forward?

Q: Hi there, what are your current overall favourites names in the US space for growth with a decent risk to reward (ie: not looking for all or bust type names).

Thanks!

Q: Hi 5i,

MELI has had a sharp decline in its share price the past two days and I can't seem to find any news that would explain it.

I know.... I cringe when I see a question about "why did this stock price drop" and usually the answer is "because the market is crazy and doesn't have to make sense short term".

I am asking this question because when I take a look at what I would consider MELI's competitors/similiar business, like AMZN and SHOP, their stock prices are moving in a positive or at least stable direction. Can't help but feel as though I am missing some key info.

I have held the stock for over 5 years and intend to hold it for at least another 2-3years. Still have confidence in the Business model going forward.

Maybe I'm just letting the market noise finally get to me.

Would appreciate your thoughts.

Thank you,

Greg C.
