Q: Hi !

I refer to your monthly section of "best stocks ideas"

What are we to read in your selections: best value presently, ? best long term value ? best buying opportunity now ? best undervalued stocks ? best growing potential short term ? best long term growth ? best total income ?

It would be most helpful to know exactly what you mean by your best stock ideas.

Gratefully,

Q: Your thoughts please on the Marvell earnings after hours Thursday? If it could be bought for $70 tomorrow would it be an add for you in a hypothetical portfolio with a 12 month window? Please provide a high level analysis and whether you rate it as a buy, sell or hold based on the results.

Q: Based on your last comments on SNOW, you said "...expensive and volatile, and expectations are very high. Thus, they perhaps need 'perfect' numbers to see substantial gains."

SNOW nWhat is your take on the earnings I'm assuming you're fine with it from what I'm reading all over the internet.

Can you explain more about the data modernization theme in software and the long term growth (Compound Annual Growth Rate) for Snowflake and has the hype from it's IPO days remained the same, ramp upped or been less muted ..... is this a future 10 bagger, will it be as successful as a Nvidia or Microsoft?

Who are its competitors? and should SNOW be worried about them longer term?

What has to keep working for this stock for it to keep growing in the next decade and what might stop it from rising?

oh and ps....what is the insider ownership looking like and is that a metric I should be looking at for this particular stock?

Thanks again, please take as many credits off as needed to answer.

Q: Would you kindly give your thoughts on this ETF along with its constituents and prospects.

Thank you

Q: i have noticed this stock has been moving up over 20 percent lately. Has there been any change to its outlook. Are they making money?

Q: Good morning,
I own a 3% position in BIPC and smaller positions in BBUC and BBU.UN. I was thinking of selling all three and adding to BN before the split. I also own BEP.UN.,BAM, BEPC and BN. This is in non -reg account. Since they are relatively small gains, taxes are not an issue. Thanks, Paul

Boomer here looking for a newish stock after my kids regularly use these products. Of these two entrants in categories (which did not exist 20 years ago) which would you recommend for long term growth without gut wrenching volatility? Are there other options you prefer?

Q: HIVE was decimated earlier in the year and is now showing some real strength. I am still underwater by 25%, do you see much more recovery on the horizon or is it time to cut it loose while the bleeding has stopped. At least temporarily.

Q: My portfolio is top heavy in Financials and lately two of the companies I have a good interest in have been punished by the market. Both after earnings that disappointed. Do you believe both have structural problems that will weigh on their stock price for a good time or is it only passing issues they will soon recuperate from? Thank you.

Q: Is Loblaw a good buy today

Q: Would you throw some light on “ provision for credit losses “ ( PCL ) that the banks use in their financial statements. It seems to have a significant impact on earnings. How is it determined ? Analysts take it as a poor contributor to earnings. If a bank lowers its PCL how does this actually increase its profitability ? Is there a formula to determine its PCL and how trustworthy is this ? Seems to me that a bank could alter the PCL number to better their numbers. Thanks. Derek.
