Investment Q&A

Q: These companies seem to be too good to be true. Are they?

Q: Hi team,

On Dec. 9, 2025 in a reply to Clayton, you listed stocks which could be multi baggers in the next 10-20 years.

Which stocks, in order, would be in your list of multi baggers now ?

Would you consider to update that list every 3 months ?

Gratefully,

Jacques IDS

Q: Tom Lee was on CNBC today and stated that Bitcoin may have bottomed this past weekend because it reached technical of US$77,000 and sufficient time has passed since October 10 deleveraging event (time and price have aligned for crypto to be bottoming). If Tom Lee's forecast is correct, what CAD or US stocks would benefit from Bitcoin run past previous highs ? I own GLXY. Is this my horse or are there better stocks ?

Q: In a question answered with MSTR at 200$ I sold half as we discussed.

what would you do with the balance given the waterfall decline in BTC?

Would you hold wishing for a rebound or would you sell the rest?

Q: When bitcoin starts to move up more significantly, which one of these 2 stocks is likely to move up more rapidly? And why or why not?

Thank you.

Q: I have a position in MSTR that is now less than 1%. My cost is $12.80. I'm wondering about averaging down to bring the position to 1-1.5%. What are your thoughts for MSTR in the coming years, and my idea to average down in this case?

Q: A month ago, in your answer to Ellen, you recommended MSTR as a replacement for IBIT for tax loss harvesting. Unfortunately, it turned out to be a bad advise, as MSTR dropped over 21% vs. IBIT drop of 11% since. You repeated the same recommendation in your answer to Lai Kuen 3 weeks ago, but this time you mentioned that MSTR's "NAV could erode further below 1X"... can you please explain why would NAV erode below 1X? It seems counterintuitive for the company with NAV tied to the Bitcoin price. I am aware of the risk of removal from Nasdaq, yet, it appears that MSTR is in a freefall these days.

Q: If I sell FBTC & IBIT for tax loss reason , would I allowed to buy FBTC.U & BTCC within 30 days ? Thanks a lot.

Q: I got into crypto at the wrong time and am sitting on big losses in ETHA, BMNR, and IBIT in my taxable account. I want to harvest these capital losses. Can you recommend substitutes that move according to Ether and Bitcoin pricing to stay in the game before I can buy back after 30 days?

Q: Hello,
Any comments on the short report on BMNR. Supposedly the short seller had a similar view on MicroStrategy but the short aspect did not materialize. Tom Lee is well known so I am not sure to bail at this point or stick to it for longer term. Also, i was hoping to see a surge in ATRL after the announcements of the major projects but the stock hardly moved. Any comments please. Thanks very much.

Q: Thoughts on leadership and potential for this Bitcoin related company

Q: This Tom Lee run company is modeled after Mr Saylor's MSTR but is based on ether instead of bitcoin. I own a small position in BMNR which though volatile is currently up from my entry price. You explained the value reduction of MSTR in a recent question based on competition. You referred to the investment approach in its current circumstances as "Ponzi-like." Could you explain your view on BMNR and whether it too has a Ponzi-like set up. Also if you held this equity would you sell and instead hold an ether ETF as a "safer" way to invest in ether as you recommended regarding MSTR and investing in bitcoin or is there a distinction between MSTR and BTMR such that you would continue to hold the latter. Appreciate your response.

Q: HI guys,

On CNBC last week Michael Saylor discussed MSTR and one of the things he mentioned was it was designed to be 2X BTC movement.

I'm talking short term history here, not over years.

In the past 5 days Mstr is -1.32%, 1 month it is -15.96% and the past 3 months it is - 13.43%

However BTC has performed past 5 days +4.67%, 1 month - 2.31% and 3 month +11.1%.

As you can see BTC has outperformed MSTR quite substantially over the recent past.

Why would you think this is happening? Is the MSTR trade done? What do you reccomend for BTC exposure?

Thanks

Q: Do you see a benefit in owning a company, and then an ETF that writes covered calls on that company, such as SHOP and SHPE, or MSTR and MSTE in order to capture upside, and also get an income distribution? Please provide pros and cons, and if both owned, what sort of division - 50/50, 60/40 (asset/ETF) etc. - thanks!

Q: I’m looking to invest in SbET or BMNR. Any preference between the two? Are you able to compare the premium of market cap to ethereum owned to that old MSTR which hacks been around longer but obviously bitcoin focused

Q: Hello,
I know you have answered many questions on this subject but can i get more clarity please? First, are you able to add the symbol BMNR to your list. I chose SBET as you have that in your list. When i look at price of bitcoin for last 5 years, it has gone up alot. However, MicroStrategy's return over the same period is much higher (it holds bitcoin). How could the difference be so diverse. I am wondering if i should go with sbet and bmnr (equal amounts) as opposed to Ethereum etfs.. Please comment and if you feel the etf route is best , what are the elf's you suggest in cdn $ for bitcoin and Ethereum?

Q: What are the risks to investing in this company's 9% newly issued preferred share dividend Mr Saylor seems to explain is backed by his company's bitcoin holdings. He claims there is $5 of bitcoin value in backing of the dividend for every dollar invested. He's rather slick and bright but reminds one of a snake oil salesman of the past. Is this anywhere close to a sleep at night 9% dividend holding? Thank you.

Q: Good morning 5i
could you please provide a number of US non dividend paying stocks that would be good for selling covered call options on in the current environment. thanks

Q: If you had no money in crypto, what are 6 stocks in Canada and US you would consider for strong growth.

Q: Good afternoon 5i team!

I watched an interview with Tom Lee from Fundstrat Capital regarding how he's been named chairman at BNMR. The company is discribed as the Microstrategy (MSTR) of Etherium. Can you offer your thoughts on the company. I've listened to Lee's commentary for the last few years and he's generally been spot on with respect to S&P performance, tech stock performance, and at the moment, seems fairly accurate with his Bitcoin/crypto call. It has had a wild ride over the past couple of weeks, but if it is, in fact another MSTR, then it might be worth dipping a toe in here.....albeit, a very small toe.(lol)
