Q: What are your thoughts on BITCOIN. What is best way to play it or is there one.? I do not understand the future of Bitcoin Who uses it ? Do countries use it, do Corporations use it. Do Banks use it ? What is benefit of using it,

I know criminals use it extortion payments Trump and Harris were backing it. Was this because 80,000,000 U S Residents use it so they were both saying Yes to get their vote ?

Q: Do you think post-election sentiment on solar is overly negative? At what point might solar investments start to look appealing again?

Q: My daughter has a, no work, portfolio of these three ETFs and has averaged 24% for the past two and a half years. I have done only slightly better with my DIY portfolio - mainly thanks to you. With Trump gaining the White House would it be better to load up on VFV rather than XIC. Currently it is VFV 40&, XIC 40%, QQQ 20%.

Q: A previous question was answered on expected PNG earnings. The concensus was provided. Estimates EPS 1c; revenue $24.05M. Expected November 13 (not officially announced, however). Does 5i have a different view? What are your expectations? Since the bought deal closed a week ago, the stock has been very strong. Is it getting ahead of itself? Is it best to sit and see what happens with earnings before buying?

Q: Good Mornings,

With much thanks to 5i, my winning stocks far outweigh my losers. However, I'm thinking of doing a little post election portfolio cleanup of two stocks.

Just trying to decide if I should consider cutting my losses on Aspen Aerogels and Transmedics, or if you think the analysts might have it correct and they are worth holding for another quarter or two?

I think I may have missed the boat on Axon, which I have deliberated about buying for two years. It has gone up so rapidly with the Trump win, that it may do some consolidating for a while.

If you have some small-mid cap suggestions that you think are showing good momentum and might be a replacement for ASPN and TMDX, please give me a few ideas. This could include Axon or any other sector stock, US or Canadian.

Thanks very much,

Brad

Q: How will Trump’s tariff policy impact Canadian companies operating in the United States? Taking ATZ as an example, will the tariffs raise Aritzia's costs, making their clothing less competitive in the U.S. and potentially slowing their expansion there? Additionally, which Canadian companies with U.S. operations are most likely to feel the effects of these tariffs?

Q: Hi Peter,
If one believes the Canadian dollar is going to be weak against the US$ for the next few years, when one buy US index ETFs like S&P 500 listed on the TSE, is it better to get the hedged or unhedged version and the reasoning behind.
Thanks.

Q: I am currently holding BN, GSY, JPM, and RY in the financials sector and am considering selling GSY and buying BRK.B. I've held GSY for a number of years so have had a nice gain but wonder if BRK.B wouldn't be a more consistent mover?
Thank you
