Q: Hi group want to park some $ in high interest saving account I have 2 question's )

- How is the return calculated ( as an example PSA pays out dividend monthly monthly does that mean if i cash out in the middle of the month that i do not get a pro rated amount based on my balance. Could you explain how that works. is it a daily calculation payable at the end of the month or what.

- if i buy a US high interest account would that be a benefit for a higher return compared to buying a high interest Cad saving acct.

- could you provide some actual comparisons using real returns and currency numbers


thanks for your help with this.

Q: Hello 5i,

Your reply to Mike’s question on affects of DeepSeek was bang on. There is a lot of missing information on GPU’s, heat reduction, capability during high volume, etc, though to their credit the programmers may have found a new way to look at data which may be all that general users require.

BUT, let’s be clear, they could not have progressed without Western ingenuity and the Chinese government encouragement to steal western code and technology over and over again.

Our thoughts: Data centres are coming with the evolution of hardware. The Blackwell GPU may be ahead of its time and that is a risk for NVDA and to some degree VRT. We think NVDA missed an opportunity for extended longevity by announcing Blackwell too early.

Electrical grids require updating to be efficient with changing climate activities and technology regardless of data centres so we will chip away at a few stocks. If you assess the need for electricity from data centres at 50% of what it was projected and infrastructure improvements, what would be your top 5 stocks to purchase today?

Thank you for your advice over all these years

Q: Hello Peter and team,

We look into each question for your transparency on US holdings. We are truly thankful for that insight. I must say that our portfolio for US holdings would be so much better if your team managed our portfolio! :-) The 5i team is always 3-6 months ahead of the curve (buying or selling). We have and will continue to do well with your suggestions.

For all that you and your team does. Thank you.

Q: Can you explain what is behind the broad move higher in Gold and silver miners? Is it just the price of precious metals? How broad is this move and what, if any, other material sectors are also moving? Thank-you.

Q: Currentlly my portfolio in gold consists of 3 holdings. They are :

AEM - YTD + 20%, 1 YR + 90%

NUGT - YTD + 34% 1YR + 67%

WGX - YTD - 8% N/A

As you can see the weed in the portfolio is wgx.

Question to you is when I prune WGX out of the portfolio should I just put that money into the other 2 holdings or should I add a third that is an elite performer.

What would be the best from a portfolio management perspective and if you decided to add a third what would it be?

Sheldon

PS Don't worry about NUGT I know the ins and out and have made lots of money on these leveraged ETF's like NUGT, QLD, NAIL, etc

Thanks

Q: Can you please go over the metrics for this company. I understand that Chilili's (what % of revenue/earnings does it provide?) has become the favorite restaurant for gen Z and is driving its growth to over 20% thus the meteoric rise in the share price. The PE is 34 is it sustainable, do prospective earnings justify it? Is it a buy, sell ,or hold?
