  • View Questions on NVDA

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: Non-resident tax, I'm considering to reduce my percentage of U.S. contents gradually, since nobody knows what to expect from donald...
Hopefully, this eventual new tariff policy wouldn't affect RSSP .
As you notice, some of the ETF posted are all U.S, companies in the case of XHY and NHYB, they both are mainly Bonds or gvt.Bonds,how tariff could affect the two.?

Thanks again to the team
