Q: What option would you suggest to pursue to gain additional exposure to technology within a portfolio? I currently only own QQQ in USD registered account.

1) just add more to QQQ at the current exchange rate
2) diversify and add XIT
3) diversify and add both XIT and CSU at 50/50 (understanding XIT owns approximately 23% of CSU already)
4) none of the above, try an alternative (e.g. QQQM)

Q: I am retired and investing for income. I have recently been learning what I can of split corportions. I came across Ninepoint's Large Cap split corp. It is not very old and all I can find so far is flashy sales but not much detail.

Please provide your thoughts on Ninepoint Patners management and comment on NPS specifically.

Thank you.

Q: I see that GSY stock to a big drop today. The stock is now reaching a very strong support level at about $100. Is this now a buying opportunity? Is it better to wait for the Q4 results?
Thanks John.

Q: AI Infrastructure. If you can just buy one, would you buy IREN or NBIS and why (3 quick and simple reasons) ? Is value factoring into your decision ?

Q: Morning 5i!!!

Are APP and CRWD becoming a buy here, although we may drift a little lower on sentiment? Anything you like or don’t on them in the current state?

Q: Thank you for your answer to the question (copied below) that I asked a few days ago.

I wasn't so much asking about my own strategy, but whether you think such a strategy (moving some money out of tech and into the broader market) is a good move in the current climate.

NVDA and GOOG are part of the same theme. Do you think these are winners to be held on to, or whether trimming a bit to put in the broader market would be wise?


Question: Given that the market is broadening out and that I would like my portfolio to follow suit, I am thinking of switching half of my money in XUU, a market-cap weighted fund which makes up about 10% of my portfolio, to EQL, an S&P equal-weighted fund.

What would your opinion be on that?

Also, along the same line of thought, I'm considering trimming NVDIA and GOOG although the mere mention of it has my investing friends screaming "NO!". They understand the sentiment but think it's not the right time.

Answer: We think XUU is a solid fund, but if diversiifcation is a goal then we think EQL makes good sense. For example, XUU currently is about 42% tech. EQL is barely at 10%.

Q: Hi team,
Is gsy tanking today from trumps tariff uncertainty? Or is the late earnings date release now of concern? Many growth names are again in free fall today I am assuming must of it is back to trade uncertainty and again software sell off.

Thanks

Shane

Q: Good Morning Team 5i & Everyone,

Do I have this right? The cybersecurity sector is selling off because of the fear that AI will eat their businesses? I’ve heard that Claude has the ability to scan databases for vulnerabilities and suggest targeted software patches for human review, allowing teams to find and fix issues that traditional tools miss. What I don’t understand is why Crowdstrike and the rest wouldn’t just use the same AI or some clone of Claude to make themselves even better at cybersecurity? Can you flush this topic out for me if you’re able to please? I’d like to understand the bear and bull case going forward.

Thank you very much & hope you have a nice weekend,

Sandra

Q: Crowdstrike a buy at these levels? Almost at pounding table buy? Thanks

Q: I want to free up some US cash, in what order would you sell these stocks.

Q: Are there any foreign tax implications holding this in Margin/TFSA/RRIF account(s)?

Q: You seem to really like WELL and feel it is undervalued right now - Is that right ? Please give us an update on WELL as well as AIDX. On February 12 you answered a question regarding AIDX saying there was no news in 2 months. On that same day (likely after you posted your reply) there was in fact news on AIDX as well as more news on Feb 19. Are you liking AIDX more now and if WELL's stock price increases do you think AIDX would follow?

Q: if choosing between SGR.un and IVT, as they are both grocery anchored reits which would be the best . IVT has 1/2 the dividend payout of SGR , but SGR has double the payout ratio.
