Investment Q&A

Q: What is going on with CART? Is the selloff warranted, or is it oversold due to fears of Amazon taking market share?

Q: These are my current holdings. Can you suggest 2 usa names to add to this list which might be complementary? I was thinking about NXT but it's jumped today. I would like to add two names that are not at 52 week highs but yet, are also "growthy." Maybe something that has pulled back irrationally like a NXT or UNH (prior to the big gains today). Thank you,

Jason

Q: Some of my shorts, (DE, JBHT and DRI) are reacting well in the pre-market. Do you think they are worth holding, as shorts, for a while yet? Can you comment in particular on DE's earnings? Thank-you.

Q: Hi there - can I please have your opinion on Uber? If you had a US focused portfolio, would Uber be a part of it? If so, would it exist in the Income, Balanced or Growth? Thank you!

Q: Remote Driving Cars. Are they the new Apple iPhone or a dud?

What company's would be the pick & shovel company's to invest in.

Is something else the new Apple iPhone?

Thank you.

Q: I have a portfolio of 25 individual stocks (diversified among most sectors) with no ETFs. Within this portfolio I own companies that trade in CAD and the US but have operations and/or varying degrees of revenue in other countries such as CLBT, AXON, TOI, VHI, UBER, BKNG, WSP, TRI, BN and some of the MAG 7 with their worldwide reach such as GOOG. I often wonder if this is adequate international exposure for a healthy portfolio or should I have a specific international ETF?
I have not been a fan of ETFs due to the often wide exposure that can include "the best along with less than the best" (and they are boring, :), haha). But for long term growth and healthy diversification I often consider opening a position in an international ETF such as VIU.
But then I face my conundrum. In the past 5 years the return on VIU has been 41.4% (Yahoo Finance). Perhaps my expectations are out of line, but I would not be happy (and I would be bored, :), ) with the same return from VIU in the next 5 years. Even a conservative Canadian bank with some international operations such as RY has done 90% in the past 5 years (Yahoo Finance). It seems to me that I must give up too much possible growth in order to achieve a healthy level of international diversification through the instrument of an international ETF.
Perhaps this is a conundrum that need not be solved, but do you have any thoughts that may lead to a wiser investment perspective or a needed tempering of my expectations?
As always, thank you for your excellent service.

Q: I am very interested in uber and aurora peeked my interest. What do you think about its potential?
This weekend Barron’s article mentioned it as a potential 22 bagger. Of course the guy is already invested so he is pitching it.

Q: Might buy a house, probably won't buy a house. Prices so high, I've been maxout out the FHSA so far and it's mostly in VEQT, bit of PLTR and CRWD which have done well. What other US or CAD stock would you recommend (shorter term BUT will leave it in there longer if market goes down/ ultimately could convert to RRSP) that is underpriced and or could have huge potential upside. Imagining turning the FHSA $40,000 limit into ... ideally a $200,000 down pmt over the next 3-10 years

Q: hi 5i, Are these two OK to buy today? for 3 years hold
thanks

Q: Obviously JP Morgan and Uber are different sectors but for a 3-5 year hold, which would you choose for superior growth ?

Q: In less than a year, Waymo has increased its weekly ride volume from 10,000 in August 2023 to more than 250,000 today. According to California Public Utilities Commission filings, the company's momentum has accelerated sharply, with March 2025 alone showing a 27% jump in paid rides after months of slower growth. Do you think it could become a big part of Google in the coming years ? They seems to have the lead compare to the competitors like tesla, uber ...

Q: All of these stocks I have positions in and would like to add only if the price is right. Can you give me a target number for each stock listed? CRWD, PLTR, SOFI, AMD, GOOG, IWO, META, AMZN, GSY, UBER, L, DOL. Take as many credits as you need. I'm 33 and these are for retirement so long term horizon.

Q: For new money, BKNG or UBER? Also, despite having different industry classifications, intuitively it seems that they would be likely to move in concert in the market (I think they have the same Beta), would you agree? When I overlaid 5 year charts, it seems they pretty much moved together except at the end of 2024.

Q: Hi 5i
I picked up some UBER @ ~69 in January. Now it is ~85 and earnings out next week. Normally I keep stocks 3 years or longer, but with 24% gain I'm considering taking profit. How does it usually react post earnings? With King Chump, you just never know when he will say or do something that spooks investors (perhaps firing Powell so he is the fall guy that gets blamed for the recession King Trump brought on with his tariff fiasco).
Thanks, Greg

Q: May I please get your thoughts on SHAK?

Thanks

Dave

Q: Hi Peter and team,
More and more cities in the States are adopting robotaxis, do you see this trend having a significant negative impact on UBER's core business?
Cheers,
H

Q: UBER is my favorite stocks for the future. People living close to work do not need a car. People moving to downtown high risers would not have to pay parking in their condos , They don't need a car. Uber sharing Food deliveries What else ? Uber wins RAK

Q: I am heavily tech weighted and am considering selling my entire position in NVDA and some CRWD as I have large gains in both. I would use the proceeds to buy positions in FLUT and SYK. I would still have position in AMZN, ASML, CRWD, GOOG, META, MSFT and VRT.

Any other suggestions?

Thank you.

Q: Do you know why UBER's price swung so much in the last two days? Thank you.

Q: Hi,

I've been in and out of GOOG many times over the years, and love their products. Recently I've been more and more interested in the robo-taxi development and really think there could be something there, but I'm admittedly not so up to speed. I know TSLA is on to something, but I just can't get behind that one...

Can you drop the Coles notes on Googles WAYMO division and your thoughts on their position in this space, and how their tech compares to others in the space as far as how far along they are in going commercial?

Thx,

Cam.
