Investment Q&A

Q: I currently hold NVDA and AVGO, both at about a 3% weighting. In your view, do both need to be held? Which do you believe would produce better returns over the next 3-5 years? Thank you.

Q: If NVDA is owned would also suggest CLS or just NVDA?

Thanks

Q: Could have I an update on your views on Medtronic’s and Qualcomm. Its hold in a RRSP. Would you suggest 1-2 companies for each one with better or same risk profile you would suggest to switch for if you think that’s a good idea .

Q: Peter; Any comment in the announcement of partnering with NVDA ? Thanks.

Q: Elon Musk predicted that by 2040 there would be at least 10 billion humanoid robots.

Who really knows, what's your opinion on that.

If something like that did happen, which companys would you be investing in now?

Or is it early?

Thank you.

Q: 3 to 5 years
What would be a better pic.
I currently own both and I am able to top up a few shares
Both are great companies.

Q: How big of a deal is this announcement with NVDA?? How does this improve NBIS future fundamentals?

Q: Recently we have seen many blue chip stocks that had done really well pull back.

Companies like RBC, TD, BN, SHOP, MFC, CNR, CP, JPM, GOOG, MSFT, BRK, and others…

What are your favourite five Canadian and US large cap names that have pulled back recently? Would you be a buyer today or would you wait until the market settles a little?

Thanks
Tim

Q: Hi 5i - Im looking to take advantage of the sell off in tech stocks. I already own 5% GOOG, 4% NVDA, AMZN and 3% SHOP, CSU and 1.5% KXS, LMN.

Which tech stocks would you recommend to add to the current stocks?

Thanks, Neil

Q: I very much enjoyed reading your AI Stack report and have adjusted some of my holdings accordingly. I hold: NBIS, NVDA, AVGO, MU, TER, VRT, GOOG and MSFT. All between 2-3% weighting. Do I need to hold both NVDA and AVGO? If not, I would sell AVGO. Assuming AVGO is sold, which would you be inclined to top up: NVDA, NBIS, MU, TER, VRT or GOOG? Thank you.

Q: Does Ayar Labs have a call sign? My phone shows its call sign as AYARZZX "Ayar Labs - Company Level" on the NASDAQ exchange and indicates trading since December 2025 but RBC doesn't seem to recognize the company. I believe NVDA & AMD are so called strategic investors. It seems their chips use fibre optics instead of copper which may help reduce costs, as silica may be less expensive to make compared to copper. Fibre cabling may also generate less heat buildup and so demand less cooling. Any thoughts you have would be appreciated.

Jim

Q: I own NBIS shares and continue to hold with the thought that the market is not either recognizing or giving credit to the company for the expected surge in revenue and hopefully earnings growth in the coming 12-15 months. Do you continue to support this premise?
Also what are your thoughts on this company as a takeover possibility? Who might be interested and why?

Q: I interpret your response to my question dated March 2 to be CLS is expected to have the highest total return of the three companies with the most risk. Shop is expected to have the least total return, but with the corresponding least risk over the next 18 months. Thank you

Q: Please rank nvda,shop and cls for total return and risk over the next 18 months. Thank you

Q: After recent news/earnings and along the thinking that AI will not completely replace SAAS but work along side it and even provide positive tailwinds, do you think its time to rotate a bit more from hardware to software or proceed with caution still? I hold CLS, NVDA, NBIS, VRT in hardware and CSU,LMN,TOI,SPOT, SHOP,CRWD,BKNG,TRI in software. Also own GOOG. I'm trying to find the right balance. If we look at SOXX/IGV, are we going to see mean reversion back to the mean?

Also what part of the market or credit cycle do you think we are in? Mid to late cycle? Should we be more defensive or still slowly adding to growth names? Thanks!

Q: Hi 5i, thoughts on results, and why the market dislikes the results. Going fwd is it still a buy for new positions? Thx

Q: Thank you for your answer to the question (copied below) that I asked a few days ago.

I wasn't so much asking about my own strategy, but whether you think such a strategy (moving some money out of tech and into the broader market) is a good move in the current climate.

NVDA and GOOG are part of the same theme. Do you think these are winners to be held on to, or whether trimming a bit to put in the broader market would be wise?


Question: Given that the market is broadening out and that I would like my portfolio to follow suit, I am thinking of switching half of my money in XUU, a market-cap weighted fund which makes up about 10% of my portfolio, to EQL, an S&P equal-weighted fund.

What would your opinion be on that?

Also, along the same line of thought, I'm considering trimming NVDIA and GOOG although the mere mention of it has my investing friends screaming "NO!". They understand the sentiment but think it's not the right time.

Answer: We think XUU is a solid fund, but if diversiifcation is a goal then we think EQL makes good sense. For example, XUU currently is about 42% tech. EQL is barely at 10%.

Q: Hi 5i,

Would appreciate your thoughts on AMD moving forward.

I have held the stock for over 3 years and have done well but considering selling for other opportunities in the market at the moment.

Do you believe AMD has the potential to eventually catch up to Nvidia over the next few years? Can it keep capturing market share from intel?

Thank you,

Greg C.

Q: Thank you for your just published special report on AI but will you soon publish a report listing the cos and sectors which will be negatively affected and whose moat will be disrupted?
