Investment Q&A

Q: In a recent question I asked you about strategies to protect gains you wrote :"Selling a covered call January 2026 $200 strike price today brings in $24. So if exercised the net selling price is $224. If the stock is below $200 in January the $24 is simply kept". But what happen if the stock is above $200 ? I 'd like some clarification.

Thank you very much in advance

Q: Hi,
I'm looking at a clip from the Kobeissi Letter which reads as follows:

BREAKING: Nvidia, $NVDA, and AMD, $AMD, have reportedly agreed to give the US government 15% of their revenues from chip sales in China.

This is being described as an "unusual agreement" with Trump in order to obtain export licenses for the chips.

Having done some quick math, I am thinking this could amount to as much as 2.5 billion based on the value they sold to China last year. If that's correct, then is it possible 2.5 billion amounts to just over 4% of 2024 revenue for NVDA?

These seem like very large numbers to me, but I have to ask whether or not you feel this could be material to NVDA or not?

Of course this tidbit happened to be published on Sunday afternoon, which seems to be the usual time Trump decides to find yet another monkey wrench to hurl at the US economy. I also wonder about the 'unusual arrangement' comment, as that same thing was mentioned in the deal that allowed Japan to purchase US Steel, was it not?

Any thoughts you have to offer would be most welcome.

Thanks!

Q: A lead article in the NYT this morning stated that NVDA and AMD are expected to pay 15% of the money they take in from selling AI chips to China. It appears to be the price they must pay to do business with China. There is some concern about security issues. I would appreciate your take on this news,

Q: Crypto is up and the market is strong yet this one has performed poorly since they executed that big bitcoin sale. Am I being impatient or is there a reason to sell and move onto something that is performing better right now? I realize that the stock is up huge on the year - unfortunately I bought after the gain and am now a bag holder (down 13%). Thanks,

Jason

Q: Hi,
I'd love to hear your thoughts on how you think CRWV will fair on next weeks earnings. A lot of analysts seem to have it on 'hold' and I'm not sure that's just due to earnings being close, or lack of confidence in the stock.
Many thanks for all you're insight!

Q: Your current view on Astera Labs please following this recent quarter.

Q: Premium Brands Holdings (PBH) is part of 5i’s Balanced Portfolio. It reported today and appears to have met or slightly exceeded analyst range of estimates both on EPS and Revenues.

It has completed its sale and leaseback of its Tennessee Sandwich Plant, and used the proceeds to repay a $172 debenture that matured in April, slightly reducing its total debt to EBITDA to 4.2:1 from 4:6:1 for the quarter.

They have also posted a 6 page letter from the CEO to Shareholders entitled “The Future of Food is the Past”

It would be appreciated if you could review both the results and the letter; and provide your comments, as well as sentiment on the company/strategy.

Thank-you!
