Q: Good afternoon 5i
I know you sell covered call options and so this question is related that. I have several covered calls coming due on April 19. I notice that I already have a profit of 75per cent. I have considered buying back the calls now and pocketing that profit and immediately selling another covered call, once again, for about a month out. I was wondering whether you ever do this, and if so, under what circumstances? Or, do you generally just let it ride to the date? When i look at things now, prices may be rising in the next while, and i might lose out on that profit if I wait.
Thanks for your great service

Q: You made the following comment in answer to Stephen R. April 5th: "On the other hand, BKNG tracks pretty closely with the health of consumer spending as its revenue source is directly related to travel spending, which is expected to experience a slowdown in the near term."
Could you please expand a bit on the theme of travel expected to experience a slowdown in the near term. Could you include your reason/sources for saying this and your definition of "near term" . As always, thank you.

Q: Can you please explain how support levels are determined. Reviewing comments from numerous web sites as well comment from BNN the support level for ATD is mid 60's and then watch out.
I have been a holder of ATD since 2016 and decided to sell the majority of my holdings because of current market conditions.
Just wondering if I jumped the gun on this one.
Your comments would be appreciated

Q: Hello, my question is about GLXY, back in November of 2021 the stock price was around $40 and Bitcoin was worth $75K, now that Bitcoin is around 92K GLXY is only $14-$15 a share. Was it just too much hype back in 2021 and it ran up too high or has anything changed since then. Thanks, would love to hear your invite as always!

Q: A number of these companies have done very well recently while others have not. Could you rate these as Buy/Hold/Sell and for those you consider a buy, could you provide what you feel is a good entry point.

Thank you
Tim

Q: Given Lightspeed’s announcement of a 10% staff reduction and up to 10% share buyback, a Scotia analyst suggests it’s a buy, stating Canadian tech is quite undervalued. LSPD has lagged the tech rebound, and I’m interested in your take. Is Lightspeed doing enough to regain investor confidence such that we might see a material increase in the share price?

Q: When do you think you will review the short report in detail and provide a full picture of its potential validity. You have indicated some initial thoughts but it sounds like you will conduct a more rigorous review of it. 5i has liked the stock in the past and it would be good to know if the report has changed your view/rating in any way and why.

Q: Personally I find very, very little value in quotes from Co.'s
Officers. Do they ever say something negative about their CO.? Even Nortel had positive quotes. That's their job.
Investors of Bankman-Fried were told great things.
Maybe some analysis would be better.

Q: If BEP.PR.O preferred shares are going to be redeemed for $25 on April 15, why are they trading for $25.25 today. I own these preferred shares & am wondering if I should sell today for an extra 25 cents per share or wait until April 15. I have enough shares to cover the $9.99 commission fee. Thanks … Cal
