Q: Are there any advantages to buying a physical gold bar at Costco vs holding in through an etf such as GLD?
Secondly, notwithstanding the incredible recent run up in the commodity and the miners, what is your outlook on gold for the next 5 to 10 years?
Lastly, if the sector is still appealing to you, would you buy the commodity etf, a seniors etf or a juniors etf?

Thank you and please deduct credits as you deem fit.

Q: Does the deal CRWV signed yesterday with Applied Digital have any negative implications for GLXY ? Is CRWV the only client using Helios Data Centre? Curious why CRWV signs these long terms leases and if they will continue to "rent" between having NVDA backing and there stock going to the moon, why not build their own data centres?

Q: BEP Brookfield renewal property is yielding over 6 per cent at the current unit price and it is trading in a tight range (about $30 to $33) the past few months. I add to my position when it gets near $30 and trim it when it gets near to $34. I think it is a good company to hold for income but what about capital appreciation? This stock used to trade up around $50!! Was that due to the 'green energy hype" of the past? I know that cost of capital is very important to high capital, low margin industries like power production, but BEP should have pretty low cost of capital since it belongs to the Brookefield group of companies, right?? Also I have scoured the company website to try and find out how aggressive BEP depreciates their assets, particularly the wind and solar since solar panels do need to be replaced as do those big blades on the wind turbines. I would like to know if BEP is depreciating these assets quickly enough, but I am not sure where to get that kind of info.

Q: Hello 5i,
Since KO has split 10 for 1 is it an opportunity to jump in? I would be giving up PEP and PG. PEP has been down for 2 years though PG is at a peak I feel taking advantage of the KO price would be an advantage. Your thoughts please.

Q: Hello

Just curious to how much overlap is there between CDZ and XEI? Is there a need to own both or can you just hold one. If only one which one do you prefer?
