Investment Q&A

Q: What are the implications of DeepSeek - if proven, aside from loss of prestige? Loss of business/ product, fewer facilities, support capacity reduction, and so on? You likely already have questions on this topic. Appreciate your view.

Q: What are your predictions on CLS reporting tomorrow for Q4? Is it a smart or risky buy at this time? Many thanks?

Q: Greetings 5i Team,
I hold these securities in a TFSA and am looking to add a new position. At the same time, I will be trimming some of these as they have done very well.
Could you make a few suggestions for a new addition? Growth is the objective and diversification need not be overly considered (I am well diversified within other accounts).
Thank you for providing this great service.

Q: I want to take a small position in Celestica:CA. Can you estimate what would be a good, great, and fantastic price. Especially in light of DeepSeek news. I know you like the company, but I've seen some reservations in answers to some questions in the past. Do you now have any hesitation, reservations? (One of the things I note is that they were around during the Dot Com days, and have survived.

Q: Your answer earlier today suggested CLS was not reliant on AI sales and was lower valued than AI plays and should bounce back faster from this panic selling. Can you suggest a reason why it has plunged so far (-26% today) and performed so much worse compared to almost all the AI stocks?

Q: This stock dropped 29%, Monday, along with several other names after Chinese app news.

Is it a good opportunity to start a new position or wait for a further pullback ?

How is the AI related business risk to its growth profile, compared to other names in the sector ?

Thank You

Q: Hello 5i,
Can you believe it I just bought up to 1/2 positions in NBIS, CLS, and VRT on Friday and now there all down 20 -35%. Where do we go from here? Have they suddenly lost their relevance? What would 5i do?
Thank you

Q: Is there anything you would buy today on the DeepSeek fallout? I have listed a few but am open to other suggestions. Thanks.

Q: Hello 5i Team,

Looking into your crystal ball for 2025, is this the year for AMD to finally show some stock price appreciation? I have held it for several years now, and am still underwater by over 12%.

I’m losing some patience, considering the relative growth in NVIDIA (which I’ve done exceptionally well with and still hold, thanks to 5i). I notice that in recent questions, some 5i members also hold AMD, and I’m wondering if you guys are not losing patience, as well?

Do you have three other tech or AI-related picks (any cap size) that you have a much stronger conviction in than AMD, for a three-year hold? Or, is there a potential catalyst on the horizon that might indicate staying the course with AMD?

Thanks very much,

Brad

Q: Good day,

I've picked up the above on 5i recommendations, and they started as small positions, but have done very well TVK+150%, VRT+200%, POWL +120%, and 3 months on CLBT+45%. I had a bit of usd in my TFSA and put it in CLS last week, already +20%. I assume much of that due to Trumps 'promises'.

Now that these small positions have become as much as say, my initial purchase amount on BAM, is this a thing that one adds to, since my initial buy was lower? Or now that it's a larger position you just let it ride? With 5is help and my own dd, I've been doing very on my winners:losers ratio, but have a hard time determining what is a good point to add in. Are these names worth adding to before they report next? Please rank in order with which you would add to.

Cheers,

James

Q: What does the market expect from Celestica next week?

Q: hi 5i, would you please provide me with 3 canadian names you think will benefit and growth under Trump's era mandate, any sector, high risk is OK.

Q: Hi Folks!

Could you tell me what the 24 month expected growth is for Datadog and Celestica? Do you see this as a good entry point or are these companies expensive based on your metrics? They have had quite the run up.
Would you wait for a pull back or be fine hopping in now.
This is for a 2-3 year hold.

Thanks so much for all you do!

Q: Can you rank the following stocks best to worst please? Thanks

Q: Is Celestica's performance supported by fundamentals.
Thank You
Peter

Q: As irrational as it seems,Trump may impose tariffs soon after his inauguration just to appease his voting base.A likely “knee jerk “reaction would send these stocks lower.Do you think this would create a buying opportunity?Are there others in your portfolios that could be affected? Some of this uncertainty must be already be priced in,but CLS seems immune to this.

Q: This morning you recommended VRT us. I am wondering if there is a Canadian company that is in the AI infrastructure sector and trades on TSX. Also what is the best etf that can be bought on the TSX that focusses on AI infrastructure (US).
Cheers Steve

Q: Yesterday, you gave me your top 4 conservative growth. Could you please give me your top 4 non-conservative growth in order please. Thanks Steve
