Q: I recently sold Nvidia in my tfsa. I sold a call option on it and it was pretty close to the strike price, I let it get called away, since I am overweight Nvidia. Now that it is down I am tempted to buy it again. I can’t let myself forget the overweight aspect, though. Do you have another suggestion that I could replace it with? I want something nearly as good that I can sell options on, thus no or a small dividend. Sector doesn’t matter. I am also full weight on Shopify and Google. I am also open to smaller stocks that could show growth and are relatively safe—celestica and Nebius?
Thanks

Q: What is your opinion on Celius's having Pepsi up it's stake to 11% and selling the Rock star energy for USA and Canada to them? I have been a fairly long time holder and just wondering if these new developments are going to be great for future valuation in your opinion possibly?

Q: Do any of these companies fwd P/E's or P/S's concern you at all vs their expected growth rates?

They range from 50x to 127x. I'm looking to increase positions in NBIS/SRAD/GENI so I'm thinking of trimming some of these higher valuation names to add to these lower position names. However, I don't want to trim these long term compounders if they still have legs, but at such high valuations, when does it make sense to trim a name like CRWD to add to NBIS currently? I understand that great companies generally have higher valuations for a reason and investors have to pay up for great long term compounders. Thank you!

Q: Can I get your quick comments on these companies? I'm down on these between 20-45%. Do you think they are still worth holding or looking to clean up these weeds and deploy into other higher quality names. Thanks!

Q: Hello 5i,

The quarter has been quite a ride so far. Get a sniff of a miss or lower guidance and stocks drop faster than a toboggan coming down Mt Everest.

Do you have any recommendations that appear to be Buys if you don’t already have a position? Some examples are: DDOG, VRT, TTD, TMDX, SPSC, CELH, CLBT, ROAD, CECO, APPF, ASPN, POWL, (electrical grid suppliers), and any other intriguing opportunity? The purchases would be for a 3-5 year hold.

If feels like the tipping point for earnings for many companies has been reached. If a looming reporting date is like a 5-alarm fire warning to get ready to bail water and run for the hills, which sounds like… opportunity!

Thank you for all of your help and wisdom.

Q: Completely ignoring CELH's past - just looking forward - how attractive is this company's present valuation? I'm trying to gauge it based on its long term forecasted growth (i.e. present P/E and P/S). Can you comment on PEG? How do these metrics, and any other, compare to a typical company with a similar market cap and projected growth?

Q: I hold these small/mid cap stocks. Most have done well.

It looks like the interest rates vs inflation discussion isn’t going away soon and rates may be higher for longer. With this as the backdrop and current uncertainty around the markets is this a time to lighten up on Small/Mid cap stocks and take some profit? Or would you hold?

Thanks

Q: I used to have a position in Celsius, but I exited it a while back when market sentiment became negative on the company. It has been a falling knife for many months: do you see any point at which it might begin a recovery, or do you see this as a company that could ultimately become bankrupt?


I don’t normally make an investment habit of bottom feeding, but the level of the drop has intrigued me to a degree. I’d really appreciate your insight on this company. Thanks so much, and I look forward to your response.

Q: You guys at 5 i used to be high on a buy for Celsius Holdings. It bounces up and down 2 to 3 per cent almost daily but the overall trend as been lower highs and lower lows. I don't want to liquidate my position because of the international growth opportunities for Celsius and the possible normalization of inventory levels of their "healthy" energy drinks with their distributor who is Pepsi. But the trend is not my friend for celsius. I have traded it a couple of times to bring down my acb but even that is making me nervous. I don't have much exposure to consumer staple nor consumer discretionary (I assume Celsius is considered to be discretionary?) so if I cut losses with celsius, what should I consider as a replacement?
