Investment Q&A

Q: Going into earnings what are your thoughts on how BKSY, SRAD and ORCL are performing? How is your confidence in these names moving forward?

Q: Hi - I know you are big fans of NBIS ( ORCL somewhat) - they are both off 20% + from recent highs - any reason for this sudden loss of momentum and reversal? The rest of tech seems to be doing ok - just profit taking?

Q: Hi Peter and 5i,
May please have your thoughts on NVDA's announcement that META and ORCL will adopt its Spectrum-X Ethernet networking switches for their AI data centers.
Do you have an opinion on how much this will affect ANET's market position?
Would you look at exiting a position in ANET based on this competitive threat?
ANET is down 13% on Monday and Tuesday.
Thanks so much.

"Arista Networks (NYSE:ANET) stock fell 2.4% Monday after NVIDIA (NASDAQ:NVDA) announced that Meta (NASDAQ:META) and Oracle (NYSE:ORCL) will adopt its Spectrum-X Ethernet networking switches for their AI data centers.
NVIDIA revealed that Meta will integrate Spectrum Ethernet switches into its networking infrastructure for the Facebook Open Switching System (FBOSS), while Oracle plans to build giga-scale AI supercomputers with Spectrum-X Ethernet switches.
The announcement appears to have triggered concerns about potential competition for Arista Networks, which is a major provider of cloud networking solutions and data center switches. Investors may be viewing NVIDIA’s expanding footprint in the networking space as a competitive threat to Arista’s market position."

Q: Hi- read an article that says ORCL debt is very high - 5X equity? Is this not a concern given questions around margins - seems like a bit of a slippery slope ..

Q: Hi Folks,
I sold some CSU recently. I now have MSFT, NVDA, AAPLE and some CSU as holdings in the Tech Sector( GOOG and AMZN as well). Can you suggest a couple of Tech stocks that I could add to my holdings in the Tech Sector. This would be in my TFSA.
Thanks

Q: With the the huge future revenues announced from Oracle yesterday what are some other companies in similar space or competitors that could also benefit?

Thx

Q: Oracle's outlook seems to have reverberated through adjacent companies with VRT, MOD, etc., etc., all popping. Ellison has made some pretty remarkable statements about expected growth over the next 4 years, and he does not appear, to me anyway, to be overselling.

My question is about three areas to look at:
1) Other cloud service providers.
2) The nuts and bolts builders of the data centers.
3) Companies in the electrical storage areas that might service the above.

However I have one main caveat, I am only interested in companies that have not had a 1,000% gain in the last 5 years. I know that might seem like a ridiculous criterion, but I keep imagining MOD or STRL investors running for the hills on a serious market pullback.

Thank-you again.

Q: Given recent big leap in share prices of both companies, especially ORCL earnings were a slightly miss while NBIS's recent financing, both shares are still a buy now, or waiting for the hyper to be settled for a better entry point ? Thanks!

Q: Any reason for the 10% increase in its price today?

Q: Good Morning Everyone,

I’ve heard a stat that claims that ~80% of the returns since “liberation day” have come from 10 stocks. (MAG 7, PLTR, ORCL, AVGO)
Is this true? Is this unusual?

May I have 10 each of your favourite CAN and US value stocks to look at please?

Thank you!

Q: I have an oversized position in Alphabet. Could you offer some alternatives, yet staying in the similar tech industry, and whose prices seem reasonably priced.

Thanks,

Q: Hi there, I asked a question about this etf and you responded with a link to a previously asked question but that precious question isn’t about the etf I was referring to. Thanks!

Q: I'm thinking that we are still in early innings of the AI / Data Centre / Power Consumption game. Assuming that to be true, I'm trying to figure out the best strategy to capitalize on this opportunity. So, what are the top 3 to 5 sectors & their companies you would curate in a portfolio to "win" this series over the long term and why? I would appreciate your valuable insight once again. Thank you.

Q: Hi 5i, Would you buy (today) these stocks for a 3-5 years hold ? & in which order would you buy them, which ones would drop off this list.

thanks
