Investment Q&A

Q: Knowing someone who works for Palantir I bought in at about 12$ in 2020. I am now seriously contemplating selling those shares for only one reason. The P/E is off the charts. I understand that there is a cult following around Alex Karp and Peter Thiel. However, does it make sense to own a company whose earnings per share are so far away from the cost of a share and where this difference only seems to increase over time.

Q: Michael Burry ( of The Big Short fame) has recently attracted much attention over his analysis and commentary on some the major AI companies. I was wondering whether you had conducted any review of his rationale and reasoning around his positioning

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: 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!)

Q: Hi Team,
If you had to pick only one CDR with the highest potential stock price appreciation what would it be. Regardless of risk and sector.
Thanks

Q: I was looking at my account today and I own both PLTR actual UDS shares and PLTR CDR. The CDR seems to be way lower in a disconect in value to the actual shares. last night I was 50% positive on the CDR and today I am 54% negative and the actual stock is still in the 174 range which shouldn't account for a 104% move total. Did something happen I am not aware of with the CDR or is this a brokerage glitch in pricing? The account is RBC Di. Any insight would be great.

Q: May I have your current thoughts on BBAI? Is the stock still 15x sales? Is PLTR a competitor? Thank you for your assistance.
Jim

Q: Please what do you think of the big bet against again Palentir and Nividia by the so called "Bigshot "Michael Burry? Possible effects and consequences?

Thank you very much in advance?

Q: What did you think of the latest quarter and do you think it’s on the path to a trillion dollar Market Cap in 10 years?
Thanks

Q: Earnings assessment and prospects moving forward please? I didn't see any commentary in 5i questions forum.

Q: NVDA and PLTR announced a partnership to develop a business for corporate supply chain logistics. Is KXS about to get their lunch eaten by these big players?

Thanks.

Q: My goal is to have $1,000,000 TFSA, currently at $320,000 (CAD) but have $40,000 USD cash in there from trims to CRWD (ty from 2018 <3) and PLTR. For US stocks I own SOFI, CELH, AMD, GOOG, META, AMZN. My plan for my TFSA is put new contributions in CAD and put in your CAD recommendations. But for the USD I have, can you recommend some US stocks WITH buy prices (willing to wait for drops to pick up stocks at a lower price)

Q: Hi 5i, What technology companies are likely to be in business in 20 years from today.
Of the above ?
Thanks

Q: Given its astronomic valuation, what kind of future you anticipate for a stock like this during a one year period around (from here to end of 2026) let's say? what would you say to those who persist to keep it in spite of the financial logic?

Thank you very much in advance for your sound judgement always appreciated.

Q: Hello 5i,
New to portfolio analytics, can’t say enough about this team! Bravo.

Circumstances forced me to shuffle financially this past year.
43, pension, rentals. 55 freedom or forget it.

Highest conviction, growth, maj; tech, leaning themes to the next decade, a sprinkle of sector diversity, large/mid/small caps, predominantly US. I’m aware of course of all the caveats here lol. A 12-15 starter pack would be fabulous.

This is you starting today; You have 300k.
I do add 700 per week, please exclude
BN, TRI, ISRG, COST, HIMS, NBIS, NVDA, BKSY.

Eagerly waiting! Thank you.

Q: For arguments sake, let’s say AI does start to eat Constellation’s lunch. How could a person hedge their position in Constellation? A company like Palantir?
Thanks

Q: hi, dear team:

Q: Anduril Industries is a private defense technology company that focuses on developing autonomous systems and AI-powered platforms for military applications.

Supposed to IPO in 2026. Would you consider buying it then?

Any other similar public company's worth investing in?

Thank you.

Q: The first questions on PLTR appear in October 2020. At that time the response in general terms could be characterized as “we like it but it is expensive, there is sole party risk…take a small position”. The latest response is quite similar but of course the company is much more widely held.
Today the stock dropped at opening by 5% on high volume, likely some panic selling. By 2pm the stock is down by 2% so it’s climbing up off it’s lows.
My question: has the risk factor on PLTR increased since Oct 2020?
If I have mis-characterized 5i’s position please do not hesitate to correct me.
I do not own the stock but am mulling it over even though the AI sector seems to be weak.
One follow-up question: If NVDA reports good numbers will it raise all AI stocks?
Thanks,
Jim

Q: PLTR Palantir stock plunges.
