Q: On Sep 12, 2025 you commented:

GIB.A can benefit from AI, and it is heavily investing in AI, but some consultant roles can be replaced by AI, and overall we think there are more interesting names in the market right now for the growth model portfolio.

Who are the more interesting names? Canadians, American and Why do think they will do better?

Q: Hi,
Could you illustrate to us all what type of companies/stocks and/or sectors historically have performed the best ( or least worst ) over periods of recession/depression/stagflation and war times? And further, can you provide your top 5-10 CDN stocks that you think would do best in these situations, with at least half of them dividend payers please, if possible. Potential ETF and options strategies would be appreciated as well. Take as many points as you see fit.
cheers and thanks, Chris

Q: My son (23) has 9000$ to invest in his first TFSA (he already has a FHSA account that is maxed out). He wants to open a TFSA investing account. Do you have a recommendation for how he breaks up the 9000.00 (ie. 3 stocks)? Are there any sectors that he should focus on at first? Do any particular stocks jump out at you as suitable for this kind or foray into the market?

Thanks in advance
Sue

Is it not possible for them to start adjusting and start buying AI companies to keep up with the present trend?

Is that possible?

Thanks

Q: Both are getting hit today, particularly TOI. Any idea why? I hear talk of AI affecting them. Is this a factor? If so, how critical is it and how much risk does it introduce? Do you still rate them high?

We currently own Microsoft, Navidia and Amazon in the tech. sector. You have confidence in both Google and Navidia.
Would you think it prudent to switch Amazon for Google AND/ OR CSU.

Q: For a 5-10 year hold within a TFSA could you please provide your top 10 Canadian stocks or CDR’s ranked by total return/compounding potential?

Q: In a Presidents Letter several years ago, there was a detailed explanation of why organic growth was more valuable to the company than acquisition growth. In recent quarters organic growth was strong (4-5%) by historical standards. Of course no further information was provided. Do you have a sense of why organic growth has accelerated? Is it the influence of AI improving their businesses? Do you feel the higher organic growth rate is sustainable and if so should that lead to a rerating of the stock valuation?

Thanks.
