Investment Q&A

Q: Hi 5i Team - I have a small position in Super Micro Computer but am not sure whether to add to it or sell it and use the proceeds elsewhere. Could you provide an update on fundamentals, insider ownership and your opinion on its potential going forward over the next couple of years.

If I decide to sell, is there another similar company that might have better prospects.

Thank you.

Q: Hello Team 5i & Everyone,

With regard to the A.I. theme: If you had to pick 9 American stocks to watch that have been already running since 2023 because of A.I., which stocks would they be?

Nividia & Microsoft seem obvious. Maybe VST, AVGO… Gemini provided a list, but I’d like to know what you think please.

I find that the MAGS etf is a simple way to track the big tech stocks, but I’m not sure if the SMH etf would be too specific to track the A.I. stocks/theme?

Thank you for your help!

Q: With regards to 5i AI special report is there any advice for members as to where to start. There are a lot of companies in your report. Maybe if you could narrow things down to 5 or 6 companies from different areas of AI that could be a core holding.Thank-you for the report and helping me to understand theAI process.

Q: Hello 5i!

I have held VRT for 2.5 years and done well and have a full position in it. It has drifted lower as AI waffles around and other AI related players get more attention.
Do you see VRT as a “must own” for the space or do you have another stock in this space with more momentum and growth potential?

Also, Would you endorse selling a half position of VRT to buy ENS?

Sending all you fine folks at 5i the warmest wishes for the holidays. Thank you for all of your guidance throughout the years. It is appreciated. Enjoy some time off!

Q: I have the following in the industrial sector of my total portfolio.:
AXON = 1.1%, CAE = 0.9%, HPS.A = 1.9%, ZDC = 0.4%, VRT = 3.4%, WSP = 5.2%, CWW (etf) = 3.1%
Am ok with the VRT, WSP, CWW levels. I have new money to add to some or all of the smaller % holdings. Can you weigh in on what your approach would be, including selling any or buying something else . Thanks as always for your knowledgeable, experienced and measured assessment.

Q: Could you please rank the above industrial stocks in order for purchase now? I currently hold some and looking to add 1 or 2 more. Thank you

Q: Thank you for the excellent market update comparing the AI boom to history. What are the top 'capex-light' companies that you feel may participate in the AI boom?

Q: Would you recommend taking a small position in AI at this point, and if so what would be your first choice in a stock and/or ETF?

Q: Hello team,
Based on a bit of research I have done, I would like to buy these companies in the following order: ASML, SMCI, ANET, AMD, AVGO, SITM, ARM, PWR, PLTR

I am buying them to further focus my portfolio on AI for the next 5-10 years. I already have the hyeprscalers and the usual AI suspects but, somehow, I missed on the companies listed above.

Please deduct as many credits as needed for the following questions:
What do you think of this list?
Would change the order based on their resent declines/Valuation?
Would you drop any of the above based on their excessive valuation which may not meet the expected growth in next 5-10 years?
Would you wait a bit more before you buy or just proceed today?
Is there a better company that can substitute any of the above based on moat in AI? Any other company that you think I should also consider?

Thank you as always for your invaluable help and insight. (Without you I would have quit investing a long time ago!)
