Q: Would you consider these as early winners as AI "picks and shovels", quite apart from SMCI which has had a huge run-up?
What are your views on other hardware for cloud benefitting from AI - such as, IBM DELL HPE NET and CSCO. Bottom line - which are buyable today or could you suggest buy prices?

Q: I have a small position in MDB and I'm uncertain to add to or just hold. After reviewing past answers I wonder if your views have changed. Are you more positive? Analyst reviews from Scotia McCloud are so so. To my eyes, the technicals look good - actually better than its peers. Does MDB have an advantage in the market? Would you prefer another company competitor with more torque? Thanks..........Lionel

Q: I compared the 6 month stock price performance of the following as Nasdaq stocks and as CDR's:: AAPL, AMZN, GOOG, META, & NVDA
All stocks showed better returns on the Nasdaq.
than as CDR's probably due to currency fluctuation but I am puzzled by the huge discrepancy in the gains between the 2 exchanges. eg. AAPL & NVDA show a 25% higher gain - AMZN 12.4% - GOOG 16% - META 1.7%
Can you explain?
Thanks, Hugh

Q: Took advantage of the 27% increase in NVDA today to reduce my holding to 5% and free up some cash. Looking for advice on how best to redeploy these funds. I already hold MSFT, GOOG and AMZN. I've been looking at AAPL, but am concerned about the geopolitics surrounding the company's manufacturing operations in China. Does this add a significant layer of uncertainty to investing in this company? Including AAPL, please provide a total of three names - in ranked order (best first) - where I could invest funds today. (Not sure if META would be one of them, but please exclude. Can't support the corporate ethos.) Thank you.

Q: Hi team,

This is more of a second order question - so nvda is clearly doing very well, where could we look for benefit on the supplier side, ie. the inputs for what they need for the AI?
