Q: Follow up on Bitcoin as an asset.
The price to mine a bitcoin has decreased over the years from about 37,000 dollars to 17,000 dollars. The total number of bitcoins to be mined is supposed to be restricted to a finite number which may be reached this year or next year.
Still the bitcoin value reaches rather extraorbitant values despite not having any asset to back up the value. It apparently may hide a bitcoin owner unless he or she declares its ownership . The legalized ETFs may be more open as to the ownership I presume.
Do you have any comments about the above issues?
I think 50% or more people who invest in bitcoin do not have idea that is a bitcoin.

Q: I have a terrible affliction for an investor, a non-functioning trigger finger. Now CELH has become my white whale. I even stopped by a CircleK to see the product placement and ask the clerk about sales and target customers. It is behaving like the NVDA of consumer disc, but NVDA has shown its ability to catch up with and blow through it's valuation. According to the company profile for Celcius in your data feed it has far exceeded even the highest analyst's recent price targets. Can you see a realistic probability that Celcius grows into and outstrips it's current valuation? I have read your recent responses but it is starting to make things outdated in a hurry. Thanks for your thoughts.

Q: Hi, Could you please share your thoughts on the recent performance of the stock. LMN stock made a high of $38, just before release of its quarter, but its price has been drifting lower since then, closing at $33 level, within a span of less than 10 days.

The results looked solid, but apparently, there seems to be some concern among investors related to an expense of $2,871 mln (FY 2023), related to the increase in fair value of the redeemable preferred/special shares and dividend payable. LMN also intends to issue new common shares on March 25, 2024 to satisfy
(1) mandatory conversion of the large block of preferred and special shares held by CSU/Others at a predetermined ratio
(2) payment of $87 mln of dividend on these shares and number of such common shares, to be based on average trading price of LMN for 60 days prior to March 25.

My understanding is that the loss related to “Increase in FMV of preferred shares” is only a “Book Loss” and will extinguish completely, with no effect on company profitability (Existing and Future) once the preferred shares are converted to LMN’s subordinate voting shares on March 25.

Thus, the only relevant factor here should be the impending issue of new common shares (How many and the final total o/s shares), which would result in increase of the share count, possibly impacting the Net Income and CFO per share and further elevating the PE ratio.

So, is the market concern justified or it’s more of a sentiment issue, which should resolve itself with more clarity over next few quarters?

Based on your assessment, do you believe that nothing has changed to its mini CSU profile? And if so, is it a good opportunity to take advantage of this uncertainty and to add LMN shares at current level ?

Thank You

Q: On Mar. 14 in the Q & A, Mike was concerned about a short squeeze on CELH and provided the reasons why. 5i said yes there could be one and I get the impression from reading the answer that a short squeeze would cause a fair sized drop in CELH.
Jason Donville was answering a question on HPS.A and he said it had quite a run and he likes it, but he is going with NXT because it might have a longer runway at this time.
Thank you
