Q: Good morning 5i team,

In a press release, Galaxy announced that its affiliate, Galaxy Asset Management, ("GAM"), reported preliminary assets under management of $6.2 billion as of May 31, 2024. The 9.8% increase in preliminary AUM compared to the prior month was primarily driven by market appreciation partially offset by the continued successful liquidation of assets associated with an ongoing opportunistic mandate. Can you please shed some light on " continued successful liquidation of assets associated with an ongoing opportunistic mandate". How does this 'oppertunistic mandate help/hurt GLXY, if at all.

Thanks as always

Dave

Q: I am considering starting a position in First National Financial Corp., Canada. It is dealing with mortgage financing with a healthy yield around 6%. Information that I have found indicates 70% ownership by principal owners so that liquidity may not be great. Is this company worth adding to an income focused portfolio? My other financials are Canadian banks, BN, BAM, AD,UN

Q: Good day. Today (June 20, 2024) nvidia stock dropped about 3.5%: however, the Nvidia CDR that we acquire in Canadian dollars dropped almost double this amount. Normally the ADR stock moves pretty much in line with the US stock. Is there any reason for this difference today? I believe I saw something similar a fews days ago with some other stock (or etf?). Thanks again.

Q: Hi, Celestica stock declined sharply, 5.5% in Thursday's trading. Following an afternoon reversal of many high flying semi names, the peripherals also followed suit and lost ground. Do you think, CLS's drop was also simply sector related or it had something to do with company's announcement of upsizing their Bank Credit facility to $1.5 Billion ?

Thank You

Q: I have held JNJ for years and I am *STILL* holding on , in the [vain] hope that surely management will FINALLY resolve its various self-inflicted legal problems. I have been MISERABLY wrong. JNJ shares continue to decline (drowning is the perception as we focus much more on loss). I was idiot enough to buy into JNJ’s spin off KVUE, on which I have a rather loss in just one year.

Notwithstanding the enthusiasm of media commentators, the health care sector hasn’t done anything outside of a couple of star-companies. Are JNJ and KVUE worth holding on to? I would appreciate very much your substance-backed reasons either way. In your answer, kindly please put less emphasis on the legal issues which are already well known and focus entirely on the future prospects .
Many thanks.
