Q: Hi Peter...I have some cash in my TFSA and I'm considering buying either SHOP or DSG. I like SHOP but I just don't think the large amount of stock based compensation is shareholder friendly. I'm going to spend about $80,000 CAD so I want stock liquidity. I do have a lot of IT companies (NVDA, CSU, LUM, TOI, COHR). Do you think either DSG or SHOP would strengthen my IT grouping? Also do you think I am being unreasonable about SHOP and its stock based compensation? CSU, where the executives have to buy stock in the open market, being so shareholder friendly makes me hesitant with SHOP. Any comments you have would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Jim

Q: I am overweight both of these names. I am hoping for a recovery pop at which time I will seek to sell down a bit and spread the money out. Can you please give me a few other names that you might suggest for growth at this time? I sold booking holdings at a loss so please exclude that name. I am too afraid to buy back smci due to its wild volatility. I was consider coherent, Motorola, and Monolithic Power but am open to other suggestions. Thank you.

Q: I see COHR is up 16% today as I type this question. My news feed doesn’t show any news which would explain the rise. Does Bloomberg show anything?
Thanks,
Jim
